Nucor stock dividends
Nucor dividend payout ratio: 30.9% of net profits
Recently Nucor has paid out, on average, around 30.9% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.49% of the current stock value.
This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Nucor shareholders could enjoy a 1.49% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Nucor's case, that would currently equate to about $2.20 per share.
While Nucor's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Nucor may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Nucor's most recent dividend payout was on November 10, 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by September 30, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
