Yield uses fiscal 2025 dividends · Dividend per share and payout ratio are for fiscal 2025.
- Dividend yield — dividends divided by the share price (or market cap). It falls when the price rises.
- Dividend per share — the fiscal-year dividend per share. For one hundred shares that is about $116.00 before tax.
- Payout ratio — 185.1% of earnings was paid out as dividends.
- Consecutive years — dividends were paid every year for more than 18 years. That does not mean they will continue.

ⓘ What are these valuation metrics?▾
P/E = share price ÷ earnings per share (EPS)
P/B = share price ÷ book value per share (BPS)
P/S = share price ÷ sales per share
P/E shows how many times annual earnings per share the price is; not all earnings are paid to shareholders. P/B compares the price with net assets, and P/S with sales.
Higher or lower is not good or bad by itself. Typical levels differ by industry; read P/B alongside ROE and P/S alongside margins.
ChickenStock computes these from SEC financial filings: net income and revenue are summed over the latest four quarters, and equity is the latest reported balance.
A negative P/E means a net loss. Reference information only, not a recommendation to buy or sell.
