What makes up AEG's 5.48% yield
AEG paid $0.49 per share over the last twelve months against a share price of $8.89, which is where the 5.48% comes from. Special and one-off distributions are excluded from that figure — they do not recur, and including them would overstate every projection below.
Yields at this level usually have a structural explanation rather than a mispricing: the company is organised to distribute income rather than retain it. Worth checking how AEG's current yield compares with its own history, since a sharp recent rise more often reflects a falling price than a raised payment.
Bank and insurer dividends are constrained by capital requirements as well as by earnings — a regulator can restrict distributions in a stress scenario regardless of what the business earned. Payments here have historically moved sharply in both directions around credit cycles.
When AEG pays, and what that changes
AEG pays semi-annual, which is unusual among US-listed payers and has two consequences the annual figure hides. The "monthly average" column is an average and nothing more — no cash arrives in most months — and the gap between payments means a holder buying between them waits longer for the first one.
Infrequent payments also compound marginally more slowly when reinvested, since each distribution spends longer as cash before it is put back to work. The reinvestment figures above use AEG's real schedule rather than assuming quarterly payments.
Each payment has an ex-dividend date, and it is the date that governs entitlement: shares bought on or after it do not carry that payment. AEG's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.
Is AEG's dividend covered by earnings?
AEG's payout ratio of 0.59 means roughly 59% of earnings go to the dividend, leaving the rest retained. A margin that size is what allows a payment to be maintained through a weaker year without being funded from borrowing.
Demand in this kind of business holds up across a cycle, so the earnings behind the ratio move less than the market's average and the figure is reasonably representative rather than a snapshot of a good year.
The figures hold the dividend flat. AEG has raised its payment in each of the last 5 years, which is a shorter record than the multi-decade streaks found among the longest-standing payers, and not yet long enough to have been tested across a full cycle.
AEG dividend calculator FAQ
- How much does $10,000 in AEG pay in dividends?
- At AEG's current yield of 5.48%, $10,000 pays about $548.18 a year — roughly $274.09 per payment, paid semi-annual, or $45.68 a month averaged out.
- What would AEG be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?
- Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in AEG would grow to about $17,174 after 10 years, against $15,482 if the income were taken as cash. That deliberately assumes no dividend growth — a real holding may do better or considerably worse.
- How often does AEG pay dividends?
- AEG pays semi-annual — 2 payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule.
- Is AEG's dividend guaranteed?
- No. Dividends are discretionary and can be reduced or suspended at any time, and every figure here is a projection from the current yield rather than a forecast. Check AEG's full payment history before relying on any of it.
- Why is AEG's dividend yield so high?
- AEG yields 5.48% against a 2.93% median across US dividend payers. A yield is a ratio, so it rises either because the payment went up or because the share price came down — and the figure alone does not say which. Yields this far above the market among ordinary operating companies are unusual and often reflect what the market expects rather than what has been announced.
