Source: Dividend.com At Meta’s current share price of $631.76, the annualized dividend amounts to $2.10 per share, representing a forward dividend yield of 0.33%. The company maintains a payout ratio of 7.06%, reflecting a conservative return of earnings while prioritizing growth and reinvestment. Investors holding 100 shares will receive $52.50 in dividends for the quarter. If Meta maintains its current payout rate, shareholders will earn a total of $210 annually, equivalent to $2.10 per share per year. Notably, Meta’s dividend policy, introduced in 2024, marks a strategic shift toward rewarding long-term shareholders while maintaining strong balance sheet discipline and steady cash flow generation. META stock fundamentals  The dividend expectation follows Meta’s solid third-quarter results, with revenue surging 26% year-over-year to $51.24 billion, beating analyst estimates of $49.41 billion. Adjusted earnings per share came in at $7.25, above the expected $6.69. Despite strong sales, Meta’s operating margin contracted 300 basis points to 40% due to rising AI-related costs. The company also recorded a $15.93 billion one-time, non-cash tax charge tied to the implementation of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which Meta said will reduce its U.S. cash tax payments through 2025 and beyond. Looking ahead, Meta expects fourth-quarter revenue between $56 billion and $59 billion, with the midpoint above Wall Street forecasts. The company also raised the low end of its 2025 expense outlook to $116 and 118 billion, up from $114 billion, citing higher AI investments.… The post Meta to pay dividends on December 26; Here’s how much $100 META shares will earn appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
