Apple stock dividends
Apple dividend payout ratio: 13.79% of net profits
Recently Apple has paid out, on average, around 13.79% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.37% of the current stock value.
This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Apple shareholders could enjoy a 0.37% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Apple's case, that would currently equate to about $1.02 per share.
While Apple's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Apple is investing more in its future growth.
Apple's most recent dividend payout was on November 13, 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by November 10, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Apple stock performance metrics
Here are some common key metrics for Apple stock that analysts often use to help gauge a stock's value—P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.
Has Apple stock ever split?
Apple's stocks were split on a 4:1 basis on August 30, 2020. 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 Apple stocks, just the quantity.
However, indirectly, the new 75% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Apple stocks, which in turn could have impacted Apple's stock price.How volatile is Apple stock?
Over the last 12 months, Apple's stocks price has ranged from $168.63 to as high as $283.42. Apple's beta measurement of stock volatility is 1.11. For comparison, the market () average beta is 1. This would suggest that Apple's stocks are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
Some analysists use "beta" to gauge a stock's volatility. Beta is a popular way to measure a stocks volatility in relation to the market. Here is a breakdown of Apple's beta stock volatility rating.
