Recently Pan American Silver 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), Pan American Silver shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Pan American Silver's case, that would currently equate to about C$0.4 per share.

Pan American Silver'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.

Pan American Silver's most recent dividend payout was on 28 November 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 17 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").
