I think I have everything updated now. What I've started doing is going back to the dividend histories and when putting in previous payout and new payout is going with the year over year payments to calculate the increase.

This shows the actual annual increases for companies that raise payouts more than once a year rather than showing the incremental increases. Generally not a big deal, but some companies like OHI and O raise theirs with every payout.

Nice increase for the changes going on at the company lately. Rumors persist the new CEO is on the prowl for an accretive buyout/merger also.

This is sad. For anyone still holding MCHP:

Microchip Technology (NASDAQ:MCHP) declares $0.357/share quarterly dividend, 0.1% increase from prior dividend of $0.3565.
Forward yield 3.11%
Payable March 9; for shareholders of record Feb. 23; ex-div Feb. 19.

They've increased the dividend $0.0005 every quarter.
