MGM Resorts International share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 33.33% of net profits
Recently MGM Resorts International has paid out, on average, around 33.33% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.03% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), MGM Resorts International shareholders could enjoy a 0.03% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In MGM Resorts International's case, that would currently equate to about $0.01 per share.
While MGM Resorts International's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that MGM Resorts International may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Have MGM Resorts International's shares ever split?
MGM Resorts International's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 18 May 2005. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your MGM Resorts International shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for MGM Resorts International shares which in turn could have impacted MGM Resorts International's share price.
MGM Resorts International share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, MGM Resorts International's shares have ranged in value from as little as US$33.7 up to US$51.1636. 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 (NYSE average) beta is 1, while MGM Resorts International's is 2.3275. This would suggest that MGM Resorts International's shares are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.
