That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 18.14% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Braskem SA Class A shareholders could enjoy a 18.14% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments.

Braskem SA Class A's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 15 May 2005. 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 Braskem SA Class A shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Braskem SA Class A shares which in turn could have impacted Braskem SA Class A's share price.
