Like most US dividend payers, AVY distributes quarterly, so a full year of ownership produces four payments.

Whether these payments are taxed at the lower qualified rate or as ordinary income depends on how long you hold the shares and what kind of company pays them. See the qualified vs. ordinary dividend rules.
