BRiley Financial share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 246.91% of net profits

Recently BRiley Financial has paid out, on average, around 200% 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), BRiley Financial shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In BRiley Financial's case, that would currently equate to about $3.5 per share.

BRiley Financial'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.

BRiley Financial's most recent dividend payout was on 10 June 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 23 May 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have BRiley Financial's shares ever split?

BRiley Financial's shares were split on a 101:100 basis on 24 November 2016 . So if you had owned 100 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 101 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your BRiley Financial shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for BRiley Financial shares which in turn could have impacted BRiley Financial's share price.

BRiley Financial share price volatility

Over the last 12 months, BRiley Financial's shares have ranged in value from as little as $4.07 up to $39.4626. A popular way to gauge a stock's volatility is its "beta".

RILY.US volatility(beta: 1.24)Avg. volatility(beta: 1.00)LowHigh

Beta is a measure of a share's volatility in relation to the market. The market (NASDAQ average) beta is 1, while BRiley Financial's is 1.242. This would suggest that BRiley Financial's shares are a little bit more volatile than the average for this exchange and represent, relatively-speaking, a slightly higher risk (but potentially also market-beating returns).
