Dividend payout ratio: 35.11% of net profits
Recently Steamships Trading Company has paid out, on average, around 35.11% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 4.87% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Steamships Trading Company shareholders could enjoy a 4.87% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Steamships Trading Company 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0 per share.
While Steamships Trading Company 's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Steamships Trading Company 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 27 April 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
