Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stock dividends

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing dividend payout ratio: 32.01% of net profits

Recently Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing has paid out, on average, around 32.01% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 1.16% of the current stock value.

This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing shareholders could enjoy a 1.16% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's case, that would currently equate to about $20.50 per share.

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

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's next dividend payout is expected around April 9, 2026. To benefit, you'll need to buy Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stocks before December 11, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stock performance metrics

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

• Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's P/E ratio

  Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing'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 28x. In other words, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing shares trade at around 28 times recent earnings.

  That's comparable to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29).

• Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's PEG ratio

  Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 1.3347. 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 Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's EBITDA

  Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $2,484.7 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 Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stock ever split?

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's stocks were split on a 1005:1000 basis on July 14, 2009. So, if you had owned 1000 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1005 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stocks, just the quantity.

However, indirectly, the new 0.5% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stocks, which in turn could have impacted Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's stock price.

How volatile is Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing stock?

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's beta measurement of stock volatility is 1.26. For comparison, the market () average beta is 1.
