Dividend payout ratio: 51.75% of net profits
Recently Glanbia has paid out, on average, around 51.75% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.59% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Glanbia shareholders could enjoy a 2.59% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Glanbia's case, that would currently equate to about €0.27 per share.
Glanbia's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 20 August 2020 (the "ex-dividend date").
Over the last 12 months, Glanbia's shares have ranged in value from as little as €7.364 up to €11.4266. 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 (LSE average) beta is 1, while Glanbia's is 0.3463. This would suggest that Glanbia's shares are less volatile than average (for this exchange).
