Dividend payout ratio: 1000% of net profits
Recently Bega Cheese has paid out, on average, around 1000% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.67% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Bega Cheese shareholders could enjoy a 1.67% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Bega Cheese's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.07 per share.
Bega Cheese's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 26 February 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Bega Cheese's shares have ranged in value from as little as $2.4074 up to $4.43. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta measures a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (AU average) beta is 1, while Bega Cheese's is 0.535. This would suggest that Bega Cheese's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
