Dividend payout ratio: 6.47% of net profits
Recently YG Entertainment has paid out, on average, around 6.47% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), YG Entertainment shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In YG Entertainment's case, that would currently equate to about ₩N/A per share.
While YG Entertainment's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that YG Entertainment is investing more in its future growth.
YG Entertainment's shares were split on a 1.3:1 basis on 2 May 2014. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 1.3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your YG Entertainment shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 23.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for YG Entertainment shares which in turn could have impacted YG Entertainment's share price.
Over the last 12 months, YG Entertainment's shares have ranged in value from as little as KRW₩41567.7778 up to KRW₩97000. 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 (KQ average) beta is 1, while YG Entertainment's is 0.937. This would suggest that YG Entertainment's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
