Key points

  • Because it can be compared with deposit and bond rates, it is the core metric for income-focused investors.
  • A high yield can come from generous payouts or from a falling price; a low yield may mean the company reinvests profit in growth.
  • past dividends may not be repeated, and a one-off special payout temporarily inflates the yield.

Formula / calculation

Dividend yield = Gross dividend per share paid in the last 12 months / Current share price × 100. Some sources include declared but unpaid dividends; Yatırımcı.AI shows the ratio provided by its data vendor.

Interpretation

A high yield can come from generous payouts or from a falling price; a low yield may mean the company reinvests profit in growth. Interpret the yield against the CBRT policy rate and inflation.

Pitfalls

past dividends may not be repeated, and a one-off special payout temporarily inflates the yield. After payment the share price drops by the dividend amount (ex-dividend adjustment). Withholding tax is deducted from gross dividends, so the net yield is lower.
