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 Visa IncClass A.
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: 17.36
Socially conscious investors use ESG scores to screen how an investment aligns with their worldview, and Visa IncClass A's overall score of 17.36 (as at 12/31/2018) is excellent – landing it in it in the 14th percentile of companies rated in the same sector.
ESG scores are increasingly used to estimate the level of risk a company like Visa IncClass A 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: 2.61/100
Visa IncClass A's environmental score of 2.61 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Visa IncClass A is a leader in its sector terms of its environmental impact, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Social score: 11.33/100
Visa IncClass A's social score of 11.33 puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. This could suggest that Visa IncClass A is a leader in its sector when it comes to taking good care of its workforce and the communities it impacts.
Governance score: 8.93/100
Visa IncClass A's governance score puts it squarely in the 3rd percentile of companies rated in the same sector. That could suggest that Visa IncClass A is a leader in its sector when it comes to responsible management and strategy, and exposed to a lower level of risk.
Controversy score: 3/5
ESG scores also evaluate any incidences of controversy that a company has been involved in. Visa IncClass A scored a 3 out of 5 for controversy – a middle-of-the-table result reflecting that Visa IncClass A hasn't always managed to keep its nose clean.
Dividend payout ratio: 21.09% of net profits
Recently Visa IncClass A has paid out, on average, around 21.09% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.81% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Visa IncClass A shareholders could enjoy a 0.81% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Visa IncClass A's case, that would currently equate to about $1.725 per share.
While Visa IncClass A's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Visa IncClass A is investing more in its future growth.
Visa IncClass A's most recent dividend payout was on 31 May 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 10 May 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
Visa IncClass A's shares were split on a 4:1 basis on 18 March 2015. So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 4 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Visa IncClass A shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 75% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Visa IncClass A shares which in turn could have impacted Visa IncClass A's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Visa IncClass A's shares have ranged in value from as little as $173.5317 up to $235.1096. 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 Visa IncClass A's is 0.9652. This would suggest that Visa IncClass A's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
