Recently Eversource Energy 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), Eversource Energy shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Eversource Energy's case, that would currently equate to about $2.86 per share.
Eversource Energy'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.

Eversource Energy's stocks were split on a 2:1 basis on 29 April 2013 . So if you had owned 1 share the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 2 shares.

However, indirectly, the new 50% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Eversource Energy stocks, which in turn could have impacted Eversource Energy's stock price.
Over the last 12 months, Eversource Energy's stocks have ranged in value from as little as $53.5908 up to $66.6354. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."
