Mueller Water Products share dividends

43%

Dividend payout ratio: 43.04% of net profits

Recently Mueller Water Products has paid out, on average, around 43.04% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.78% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Mueller Water Products shareholders could enjoy a 1.78% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Mueller Water Products's case, that would currently equate to about $0.238 per share.

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

Mueller Water Products's most recent dividend payout was on 22 May 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 9 May 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

Mueller Water Products share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Mueller Water Products's shares have ranged in value from as little as $9.7574 up to $14.9177. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

MWA.US volatility(beta: 1.3)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 Mueller Water Products's is 1.3026. This would suggest that Mueller Water Products's shares are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
