Yes you earned the dividend. It would not be taxed if it was in an IRA account
Investors do have to report dividends as taxable income even if they reinvest them to buy more shares. Companies and brokerage companies will report such dividends on 1099-DIV forms the same way regardless of whether you reinvest in new shares, and the IRS will expect you to include them on your annual tax return. You should receive a 1099-DIV for the stocks that are in the dividend reinvestment program.
