Hewlett Packard Enterprise stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 26.13% of net profits

Recently Hewlett Packard Enterprise has paid out, on average, around 0% 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), Hewlett Packard Enterprise shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Hewlett Packard Enterprise's case, that would currently equate to about $0.52 per share.

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

Hewlett Packard Enterprise's most recent dividend payout was on 17 April 2025. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 20 March 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Hewlett Packard Enterprise stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 22.4% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Hewlett Packard Enterprise stocks, which in turn could have impacted Hewlett Packard Enterprise's stock price.
