WWE stock dividends
WWE dividend payout ratio: 24.87% of net profits
Recently WWE has paid out, on average, around 24.87% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.48% of the current stock value.
This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), WWE shareholders could enjoy a 0.48% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In WWE's case, that would currently equate to about $0.48 per share.
While WWE's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that WWE is investing more in its future growth.
WWE's most recent dividend payout was on September 25, 2023. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by September 14, 2023 (the "ex-dividend date").
