Sprott stock dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 70.59% of net profits

Recently Sprott 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), Sprott shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Sprott's case, that would currently equate to about C$1.05 per share.

Sprott'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.

Sprott's most recent dividend payout was on 2 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their stocks by 17 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Sprott's stocks ever split?

Sprott's stocks were split on a 1:10 basis on 27 May 2020 . So if you had owned 10 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Sprott stocks – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 900% higher stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Sprott stocks, which in turn could have impacted Sprott's stock price.

Sprott stock price volatility

Over the last 12 months, Sprott's stocks have ranged in value from as little as C$41.1789 up to C$65.8387. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta."

Beta is a measure of a stocks volatility in relation to the market. The market (TO average) beta is 1, while Sprott's is 1.451. This would suggest that Sprott's stocks are more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
