Dividend yield (FY)
The financial metric "Dividend yield (FY)" for a company is the annual dividend amount paid per share by the company, divided by the current market price of the share. It measures the percentage return that an investor can expect on their investment in the company's stock based on the annual dividend payment. This metric is often used by investors who are looking for income from their investments in addition to capital appreciation. A higher dividend yield indicates that the company is paying out a greater percentage of its profits as dividends. However, it's important to note that a high dividend yield may not always be sustainable or indicate a healthy financial position of the company.
