Procter & Gamble has raised its dividend for 70 straight years while Johnson & Johnson covers its roughly $12.6 billion dividend run rate 1.56 times with free cash flow.
Coca-Cola posted its strongest Trademark volume growth in 17 years, and ADP's operating cash flow covers its dividend more than twice over while still funding buybacks.
Lowe's carries the lowest payout ratio in the group at 41% and trades at just 15 times earnings after falling 24% year to date.

Yield is relatively easy to find. A dividend that keeps arriving through recessions, patent cliffs and housing slumps is much harder to find, and that kind of reliability is the hook for this group. Every name below covers its payout with real cash flow, has a long record of raises and keeps its payout ratio at a level that leaves room for mistakes. Procter & Gamble (NYSE:PG) sets the standard: management says its latest increase marks the 70th consecutive year of dividend increases and 136th consecutive year of dividend payments, putting it firmly in the Dividend Kings club (we ranked ten of them by valuation in a free report here). The other four pair long dividend records with cash flow that covers the payout.
