WAM Leaders share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 32.61% of net profits
Recently WAM Leaders has paid out, on average, around 32.61% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 5.82% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), WAM Leaders shareholders could enjoy a 5.82% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In WAM Leaders 's case, that would currently equate to about A$0 per share.
While WAM Leaders 's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that WAM Leaders 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").
