Dividend payout ratio: 63.45% of net profits
Recently Hormel Foods Corporation has paid out, on average, around 63.45% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.8% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Hormel Foods Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 2.8% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Hormel Foods Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $1.085 per share.
Hormel Foods Corporation's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
Hormel Foods Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 14 August 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 13 July 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Hormel Foods Corporation's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 9 February 2016. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Hormel Foods Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Hormel Foods Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Hormel Foods Corporation's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Hormel Foods Corporation's shares have ranged in value from as little as $36.78 up to $48.7579. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
