Recently Paramount Resources 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), Paramount Resources shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Paramount Resources's case, that would currently equate to about C$1.625 per share.
While Paramount Resources's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that Paramount Resources is investing more in its future growth.

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Paramount Resources stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 6.2% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Paramount Resources stocks, which in turn could have impacted Paramount Resources's stock price.
