Procter-and-Gamble Company share dividends

63%

Dividend payout ratio: 62.85% of net profits

Recently Procter-and-Gamble Company has paid out, on average, around 62.85% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.43% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Procter-and-Gamble Company shareholders could enjoy a 2.43% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Procter-and-Gamble Company's case, that would currently equate to about $3.681 per share.

Procter-and-Gamble Company's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.

Procter-and-Gamble Company's most recent dividend payout was on 15 August 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 20 July 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Procter-and-Gamble Company's shares ever split?

Procter-and-Gamble Company's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 21 June 2004. 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 Procter-and-Gamble Company shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Procter-and-Gamble Company shares which in turn could have impacted Procter-and-Gamble Company's share price.
