ConAgra Foods stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 55.12% of net profits

Recently ConAgra Foods has paid out, on average, around 100% 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), ConAgra Foods shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In ConAgra Foods's case, that would currently equate to about $1.4 per share.

ConAgra Foods'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.

ConAgra Foods's most recent dividend payout was on 26 February 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 26 January 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your ConAgra Foods stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 22.2% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for ConAgra Foods stocks, which in turn could have impacted ConAgra Foods's stock price.
