Carnival stock dividends

Carnival dividend payout ratio: 6.67% of net profits

Recently Carnival has paid out, on average, around 6.67% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value.

This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Carnival shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Carnival's case, that would currently equate to about $0.00 per share.

While Carnival's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Carnival is investing more in its future growth.

Carnival's next dividend payout is expected around February 27, 2026. To benefit, you'll need to buy Carnival stocks before February 13, 2026 (the "ex-dividend date").

Carnival stock performance metrics

Here are some common key metrics for Carnival stock that analysts often use to help gauge a stock's value—P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

• Carnival's P/E ratio

  Carnival's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over the past 12 months gives a trailing price/earnings (P/E) ratio of roughly 15x. In other words, Carnival shares trade at around 15 times recent earnings.

  That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the stock or simply that they're under-valued.

• Carnival's PEG ratio

  Carnival's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 1.41. A lower ratio can suggest a stock offers better value, while a higher ratio may suggest worse value.

  The PEG ratio provides a broader view than the P/E ratio alone, as it factors in Carnival's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Carnival's EBITDA

  Carnival's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $7.1 billion. EBITDA is a measure of a company's overall financial performance and is often used as a proxy for a company's profitability.

Has Carnival stock ever split?

Carnival's stocks were split on a 2:1 basis on June 14, 1998. 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 Carnival stocks, just the quantity.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Carnival stocks, which in turn could have impacted Carnival's stock price.

How volatile is Carnival stock?

Over the last 12 months, Carnival's stocks price has ranged from $15.07 to as high as $32.89. Carnival's beta measurement of stock volatility is 2.52. For comparison, the market () average beta is 1. This would suggest that Carnival's stocks are significantly more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent a higher risk.

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 Carnival's beta stock volatility rating.
