Eaton Corporation stock dividends

Eaton Corporation dividend payout ratio: 35.96% of net profits

Recently Eaton Corporation has paid out, on average, around 35.96% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.2% of the current stock value.

This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Eaton Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 1.2% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Eaton Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $4.06 per share.

While Eaton Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Eaton Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Eaton Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on November 21, 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by November 6, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Eaton Corporation stock performance metrics

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

• Eaton Corporation's P/E ratio

  Eaton Corporation'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 34x. In other words, Eaton Corporation shares trade at around 34 times recent earnings.

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

• Eaton Corporation's PEG ratio

  Eaton Corporation's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 2.4799. 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 Eaton Corporation's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Eaton Corporation's EBITDA

  Eaton Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $6.1 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 Eaton Corporation stock ever split?

Eaton Corporation's stocks were split on a 2:1 basis on February 28, 2011. 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 Eaton Corporation stocks, just the quantity.

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

How volatile is Eaton Corporation stock?

Over the last 12 months, Eaton Corporation's stocks price has ranged from $229.75 to as high as $397.32. Eaton Corporation's beta measurement of stock volatility is 1.16. For comparison, the market () average beta is 1. This would suggest that Eaton Corporation'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).
