Steel Dynamics share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 7.02% of net profits
Recently Steel Dynamics has paid out, on average, around 7.02% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.76% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Steel Dynamics shareholders could enjoy a 1.76% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Steel Dynamics's case, that would currently equate to about $1.445 per share.
While Steel Dynamics's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Steel Dynamics is investing more in its future growth.
Steel Dynamics's most recent dividend payout was on 14 April 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 29 June 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Steel Dynamics's shares ever split?
Steel Dynamics's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 31 March 2008. 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 Steel Dynamics shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Steel Dynamics shares which in turn could have impacted Steel Dynamics's share price.
Steel Dynamics share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Steel Dynamics's shares have ranged in value from as little as $61.6947 up to $135.935. 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 (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while Steel Dynamics's is 1.4958. This would suggest that Steel Dynamics's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
