New Hope Corporation share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 38.46% of net profits
Recently New Hope Corporation has paid out, on average, around 38.46% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 8.72% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), New Hope Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 8.72% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In New Hope Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.24 per share.
While New Hope Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that New Hope Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 13 April 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
