Beach Energy share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 17.07% of net profits
Recently Beach Energy has paid out, on average, around 17.07% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.57% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Beach Energy shareholders could enjoy a 2.57% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Beach Energy's case, that would currently equate to about A$0.04 per share.
While Beach Energy's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Beach Energy is investing more in its future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 February 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Beach Energy's shares ever split?
Beach Energy's shares were split on a 1:7 basis on 26 May 2002. So if you had owned 7 shares the day before the split, the next day you would own 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Beach Energy shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 600% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Beach Energy shares which in turn could have impacted Beach Energy's share price.
Beach Energy share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Beach Energy's shares have ranged in value from as little as $1.4026 up to $1.925. 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 (AU average) beta is 1, while Beach Energy's is 1.348. This would suggest that Beach Energy's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
