CMS Energy Corporation share dividends

2%

Dividend payout ratio: 2.04% of net profits

Recently CMS Energy Corporation has paid out, on average, around 2.04% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.15% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), CMS Energy Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 3.15% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In CMS Energy Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.84 per share.

While CMS Energy Corporation's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that CMS Energy Corporation is investing more in its future growth.

CMS Energy Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 27 February 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 9 February 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

CMS Energy Corporation share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, CMS Energy Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $51.5685 up to $69.3286. 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 CMS Energy Corporation's is 0.3339. This would suggest that CMS Energy Corporation's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
