Environmental, social and governance (known as ESG) criteria are a set of three factors used to measure the sustainability and social impact of companies like Gildan Activewear.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Total ESG risk: 15.37
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Gildan Activewear's overall score of 15.37 (as at 12/31/2018) is excellent – landing it in it in the 10th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Gildan Activewear is exposed to within the areas of "environmental" (carbon footprint, resource use etc.), "social" (health and safety, human rights etc.), and "governance" (anti-corruption, tax transparency etc.).
Environmental score: 5.37/100
Gildan Activewear's environmental score of 5.37 puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Gildan Activewear is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 12.11/100
Gildan Activewear's social score of 12.11 puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Gildan Activewear is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Governance score: 8.89/100
Gildan Activewear's governance score puts it squarely in the 8th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Gildan Activewear is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Controversy score: 2/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Gildan Activewear scored a 2 out of 5 for controversy – the second-highest score possible, reflecting that Gildan Activewear has, for the most part, managed to keep its nose clean.
Dividend payout ratio: 25.36% of net profits
Recently Gildan Activewear has paid out, on average, around 25.36% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.69% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Gildan Activewear shareholders could enjoy a 2.69% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Gildan Activewear's case, that would currently equate to about $0.693 per share.
While Gildan Activewear's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Gildan Activewear may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Gildan Activewear's most recent dividend payout was on 18 June 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 22 May 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Gildan Activewear's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 29 March 2015. 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 Gildan Activewear shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Gildan Activewear shares which in turn could have impacted Gildan Activewear's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Gildan Activewear's shares have ranged in value from as little as $25.0661 up to $34.109. 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 Gildan Activewear's is 1.4133. This would suggest that Gildan Activewear's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
