Dividend payout ratio: 33.68% of net profits
Recently Ashland Global has paid out, on average, around 0% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Ashland Global shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Ashland Global's case, that would currently equate to about $0 per share.
While Ashland Global's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Ashland Global may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.
Ashland Global's most recent dividend payout was on 14 March 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 27 February 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Ashland Global's shares were split on a 511:250 basis on 14 May 2017 . So if you had owned 250 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 511 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Ashland Global shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 51.1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Ashland Global shares which in turn could have impacted Ashland Global's share price.
Over the last 12 months, Ashland Global's shares have ranged in value from as little as $62.84 up to $101.5097. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".
Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NYSE average) beta is 1, while Ashland Global's is 0.882. This would suggest that Ashland Global's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
