Frequently asked questions

• Does First Capital pay dividends?

  • Dividend yield
  • Forward yield
  • Payout ratio

  Dividend yield: 3.86% of stock value

  Forward annual dividend yield: 3.86% of stock value

  Dividend payout ratio: 28.25% of net profits

  First Capital has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 3.86% of its share value annually.

  First Capital has paid out, on average, around 28.25% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 3.86% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 3.86% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In First Capital's case, that would currently equate to about 1.08 per share.

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

  First Capital's most recent dividend payout was on 28 March 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 13 March 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
