NVIDIA share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 0.84% of net profits
Recently NVIDIA has paid out, on average, around 0.84% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.02% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), NVIDIA shareholders could enjoy a 0.02% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In NVIDIA's case, that would currently equate to about 0.04 per share.
While NVIDIA's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that NVIDIA is investing more in its future growth.
NVIDIA's most recent dividend payout was on 31 March 2026. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 10 March 2026 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have NVIDIA's shares ever split?
NVIDIA's shares were split on a 10:1 basis on 9 June 2024. So if you had owned 1 share the day before the split, the next day you would own 10 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your NVIDIA shares - just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 90% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for NVIDIA shares which in turn could have impacted NVIDIA's share price.
