General Motors has declared a first quarter 2025 dividend in the amount of $0.12 per share on each share of outstanding GM stock. The Q1 2025 General Motors dividend will be payable on March 20th, 2025 to all common shareholders of record as of the close of trading on March 7th, 2025. The $0.12-per-share dividend is identical to the dividend announced Q4 of 2024, Q3 of 2024, Q2 of 2024, and Q1 of 2024, and a 33-percent increase compared to the Q4 2023 dividend amount of $0.09.
General Motors stock value closed at $54.92 by the end of trading on Monday, January 27th, 2025. As GM Authority covered previously, General Motors stock value jumped six percent during the week of January 21st, 2025, through January 24th 2025, closing out the week at $53.91 per share and representing an increase of $2,94 per share, or 5.77 percent, compared to the previous week’s closing value of $50.97.
Some of the biggest factors affecting General Motors stock recently is the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States, leading to concerns over looming tariffs that could affect products imported from Canada, Mexico, and China.
Trump has repeatedly threatened to implement 25-percent tariffs on goods imported from Canada and Mexico, which could potentially have a major impact on a range of GM products, including major profit generators like the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra. To note, units of the Chevy Silverado and GMC Sierra are produced at General Motors facilities in Canada and Mexico, while General Motors also imports a variety of parts from both North American countries. The latest reports indicate that General Motors could implement new tariffs as early as this coming February.
Other concerns center around Trump’s threats to get rid of the federal EV tax credit, which could have a major impact on General Motors’ growing EV business. Other EV-related subsidies are under the microscope as well, although nothing specific has been announced as of yet. Nevertheless, General Motors is moving forward with its EV ambitions, including plans to fully electrify its light duty vehicle lineup by 2035.
