How THQ's dividend compares
Across the 584 dividend stocks and ETFs DivTrkr tracks, the median yield is 3.75%. THQ's 11.45% is 7.69 percentage points above that median, ranking 140th of 584 by yield.
Within Financial Services, where we track 102 names, the median yield is 9.22% — putting THQ above its sector. A yield well above the sector norm is worth a second look: it can signal a depressed share price rather than a generous payout.
Its 2-year run of dividend increases ranks 297th out of the 354 names in our data with an active growth streak.
What the numbers mean
THQ pays out roughly 17% of its earnings as dividends. That is a conservative payout ratio, leaving substantial room to keep raising the dividend or absorb a weak year.
THQ pays monthly, which suits investors who want dividend income to line up with monthly living expenses rather than arriving in quarterly lumps.
Whether these payments are taxed at the lower qualified rate or as ordinary income depends on how long you hold the shares and what kind of company pays them. See the qualified vs. ordinary dividend rules.
