Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's environmental, social and governance track record
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 Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum.
When it comes to ESG scores, lower is better, and lower scores are generally associated with lower risk for would-be investors.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's total ESG risk score
Total ESG risk: 48.35
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's overall score of 48.35 (as at 01/01/2019) is pretty weak – landing it in it in the 95th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum 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.).
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's environmental score
Environmental score: 24.77/100
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's environmental score of 24.77 puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's social score
Social score: 17.67/100
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's social score of 17.67 puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's governance score
Governance score: 14.91/100
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's governance score puts it squarely in the 7th percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 13.46% of net profits
Recently Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum has paid out, on average, around 13.46% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.69% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum shareholders could enjoy a 1.69% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's case, that would currently equate to about $3.625 per share.
While Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum is investing more in its future growth.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's most recent dividend payout was on 9 June 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 25 May 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's shares ever split?
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's shares were split on a 2:1 basis on 20 July 2006. 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 Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 50% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum shares which in turn could have impacted Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's share price.
Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum share price volatility
Over the last 12 months, Reliance Steel-and-Aluminum's shares have ranged in value from as little as $157.5975 up to $262.2837. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
