High-Dividend Energy Stocks in the US Market (2026)
Energy companies paying a 3%+ dividend yield with a multi-year record of profits — the sector’s highest, best-supported payouts. 31 companies qualify today — top 25 below, recomputed nightly from SEC filings.
Energy is one of the market’s most generous income sectors, but payouts here swing with commodity prices, so the headline yield can flatter a business whose earnings are about to turn. This screen filters the energy sector to companies yielding at least 3% that have been profitable in at least 6 of the last 10 years, then ranks them by yield — straight from SEC filings, recomputed nightly. Several of the highest yielders are partnerships whose distributions and tax treatment differ from ordinary dividends, so the P/E and margin columns are shown to gauge how well each payout is covered before relying on it.
Criteria are deterministic filters over filed annual statements — no editorial picks, no payment for placement. Not investment advice.
