(NYSE:BRK.B) since 1990. Most analysts who track the stock currently have a favorable view of it owing to its ability to deliver strong returns with minimum hedging costs. Danaher Corporation has been consistently paying dividends since 1993 and the $0.16 per share quarterly dividend that it currently pays translates into a forward annual yield of almost 0.8%.
