FCF yield (ttm)TTM free cash flow ÷ market cap — the inverse of P/FCF.: 21.25%2016-10 3.5%2026-06 16.7%+380.5% over the window
Dividend yield (fwd)Indicated annual dividend ÷ last close: the last regular payment × payments a year, from our own dividend record. Shown only for a company that pays the same amount each time (raises and cuts allowed), whose payments are on schedule and agree with the dividends it reports paying; a company whose payments vary in size, such as an unequal interim and final, has no forward figure — see the ttm yield.: 4.29%
Dividend yield (ttm)Dividends paid over the last year ÷ last close: the last full cycle of regular payments in our own dividend record. Below the forward yield after a raise, above it after a cut. Shown only when the record holds that full cycle and it agrees with the dividends the company reports paying; otherwise —.: 7.52%
Dividend/share (fwd)The indicated annual dividend: the last regular payment × payments a year, for a company that pays the same amount each time.: $0.28
Buyback yield (realized, 1y)1 − shares_at(2026-06-28) ÷ shares_at(2025-06-29) = 1 − 190.7M ÷ 190.6M. Point-in-time share counts from the company's own SEC filings (the same count at both ends), published only when the cash flow statement shows repurchases inside that window. A falling price can't inflate it; negative means net dilution.: -0.06%
Shareholder yield (realized, 1y)Buyback leg + dividend leg: shares retired over the year (-0.06%) + dividends paid over that year ($106.7M) ÷ market_cap_at(2025-06-29) ($2.2B). Both legs are measured against the start of the window, so a payout can't shrink its own denominator.: 4.75%
Buyback yield (cash, ttm)Buybacks net of issuance over the trailing twelve months ($16.2M) ÷ today's market cap ($1.2B). Dollars SPENT over what the company is worth NOW — a stock that fell after buying reads high.: 1.30%2016-10 5.2%2026-06 1.0%-80.4% over the window
Shareholder yield (cash, ttm)(TTM buybacks net of issuance $16.2M + TTM dividends $106.7M) ÷ today's market cap ($1.2B). Same caveat as the cash buyback yield.: 9.88%2016-10 7.1%2026-06 7.8%+9.9% over the window
