Sherwin-Williams stock dividends

Sherwin-Williams dividend payout ratio: 27.94% of net profits

Recently Sherwin-Williams has paid out, on average, around 27.94% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.93% of the current stock value.

This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Sherwin-Williams shareholders could enjoy a 0.93% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Sherwin-Williams's case, that would currently equate to about $3.09 per share.

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

Sherwin-Williams's next dividend payout is expected around December 5, 2025. To benefit, you'll need to buy Sherwin-Williams stocks before November 14, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Sherwin-Williams stock performance metrics

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

• Sherwin-Williams's P/E ratio

  Sherwin-Williams'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 32x. In other words, Sherwin-Williams shares trade at around 32 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.

• Sherwin-Williams's PEG ratio

  Sherwin-Williams's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 3.1523. 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 Sherwin-Williams's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Sherwin-Williams's EBITDA

  Sherwin-Williams's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $4.3 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 Sherwin-Williams stock ever split?

Sherwin-Williams's stocks were split on a 3:1 basis on March 31, 2021. So, if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 3 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Sherwin-Williams stocks, just the quantity.

However, indirectly, the new 66.7% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Sherwin-Williams stocks, which in turn could have impacted Sherwin-Williams's stock price.

How volatile is Sherwin-Williams stock?
