Forward annual dividend yield: 7.16% of stock value
Dividend payout ratio: 61.29% of net profits

Civitas Social Housing has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 5.10% of its share value annually.

Civitas Social Housing has paid out, on average, around 61.29% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 7.16% 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 7.16% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Civitas Social Housing's case, that would currently equate to about 5.7 per share.

Civitas Social Housing'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.
