Dividend payout ratio: 41.67% of net profits

Recently Pactiv Evergreen has paid out, on average, around 41.67% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.46% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Pactiv Evergreen shareholders could enjoy a 3.46% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Pactiv Evergreen's case, that would currently equate to about $0.4 per share.

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