Dividend Yield & Price-to-Earnings (P/E)

Enter price, annual dividend, and EPS to compute dividend yield, P/E (trailing/forward), payout ratio, and earnings yield. Use this to compare stocks on income and valuation quickly.

Inputs

Use total expected cash dividends over the next 12 months (or last 12 months for trailing yield).

Forward P/E uses projected EPS; trailing P/E uses last 12 months (TTM).

Results

Dividend Yield
0.03%
= Dividend / Price
P/E (TTM)
20
= Price / EPS (TTM)
Earnings Yield
0.05%
= EPS / Price
Payout Ratio
0.6%
= Dividend / EPS (TTM)
P/E (Forward)
= Price / EPS (Forward)

Notes: Dividend yield = annual dividend per share ÷ price per share. P/E = price per share ÷ earnings per share (EPS). Earnings yield is the inverse of P/E. Payout ratio = dividends per share ÷ EPS (if EPS > 0). Trailing P/E uses TTM EPS; forward P/E uses projected EPS. Definitions align with standard references. See sources.
