Marcus Corporation share dividends

Dividend payout ratio: 66.67% of net profits

Recently Marcus Corporation 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), Marcus Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 0% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Marcus Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $0.28 per share.

Marcus Corporation'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.

Marcus Corporation's most recent dividend payout was on 15 December 2024. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 24 November 2024 (the "ex-dividend date").

Have Marcus Corporation's shares ever split?

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Marcus Corporation shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 33.3% lower share price could have impacted the market appetite for Marcus Corporation shares which in turn could have impacted Marcus Corporation's share price.
