Interpublic Group of Companies share dividends

43%

Dividend payout ratio: 42.91% of net profits

Recently Interpublic Group of Companies has paid out, on average, around 42.91% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.73% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Interpublic Group of Companies shareholders could enjoy a 3.73% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Interpublic Group of Companies's case, that would currently equate to about $1.16 per share.

While Interpublic Group of Companies's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Interpublic Group of Companies may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Interpublic Group of Companies's most recent dividend payout was on 14 March 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 February 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Interpublic Group of Companies's shares ever split?

Interpublic Group of Companies's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 15 July 1999. 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 Interpublic Group of Companies shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Interpublic Group of Companies shares which in turn could have impacted Interpublic Group of Companies's share price.

Interpublic Group of Companies share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Interpublic Group of Companies's shares have ranged in value from as little as $24.7126 up to $39.1793. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

IPG.US volatility(beta: 1.11)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Interpublic Group of Companies's is 1.1133. This would suggest that Interpublic Group of Companies's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
