Is AngloGold Ashanti stock undervalued or overvalued?

AngloGold Ashanti share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 36.28% of net profits

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

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

AngloGold Ashanti's most recent dividend payout was on 12 September 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 29 August 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have AngloGold Ashanti's shares ever split?

AngloGold Ashanti's shares were split on a 1033:988 basis on 29 May 2008 . So if you had owned 988 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1033 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your AngloGold Ashanti shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 4.4% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for AngloGold Ashanti shares which in turn could have impacted AngloGold Ashanti's share price.
