The Dividend Aristocrats Ranked By Quality Scores (April 2026)


The S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats Index consists of 69 dividend growth stocks, which, with some exceptions, have increased their annual dividends for 25 or more consecutive years.
In this article, I rank the Dividend Aristocrats by quality scores and present undervalued, fairly valued, and overvalued stocks with detailed metrics and fair value estimates.
I’m also using an expanded valuation system to determine a stock’s fair value [FV]. The system uses the same wisdom-of-the-crowds philosophy as before, but adds calculated estimates and rigorous statistical analysis to arrive at a consensus FV.
I consider stocks undervalued if FV upside ≥ 5%, and overvalued if FV upside ≤ -5%. Otherwise, the stocks are fairly valued.
I provide a downloadable spreadsheet with fundamental and added-value data of all the Dividend Aristocrats.
