Dividend payout ratio: 40.85% of net profits
Recently Baxter International has paid out, on average, around 40.85% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Baxter International shareholders could enjoy a 3% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Baxter International's case, that would currently equate to about $1.16 per share.
While Baxter International's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Baxter International may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Baxter International's most recent dividend payout was on 1 October 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 30 August 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Baxter International's shares were split on a 1841:1000 basis on 30 June 2015. So if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1841 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Baxter International shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 45.7% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Baxter International shares which in turn could have impacted Baxter International's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Baxter International's shares have ranged in value from as little as $36.8228 up to $56.7173. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Baxter International's is 0.6124. This would suggest that Baxter International's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
