Richardson Electronics share dividends

Recently Richardson Electronics has paid out, on average, around 5700% 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), Richardson Electronics shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Richardson Electronics's case, that would currently equate to about $0.24 per share.

Richardson Electronics'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.

Richardson Electronics's most recent dividend payout was on 26 November 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 7 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Richardson Electronics shares which in turn could have impacted Richardson Electronics's share price.
