What makes up BNH's 7.78% yield

BNH paid $1.16 per share over the last twelve months against a share price of $14.87, which is where the 7.78% 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 BNH'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 BNH pays, and what that changes

BNH pays quarterly, the standard schedule for US-listed payers, so the "per payment" column is one quarter of the annual figure and the "monthly average" column is a smoothed figure rather than a description of when cash arrives — nothing is paid in eight months of the year.

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. BNH's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.

Is BNH's dividend covered by earnings?

BNH's payout ratio of 0.42 means roughly 42% 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, and that assumption carries more weight for BNH than it would for a lower-yielding holding. There is no established record of consecutive annual increases here, and at this yield a modest reduction in the payment changes the ten-year figure substantially.

BNH dividend calculator FAQ

How much does $10,000 in BNH pay in dividends?
At BNH's current yield of 7.78%, $10,000 pays about $777.65 a year — roughly $194.41 per payment, paid quarterly, or $64.80 a month averaged out.
What would BNH be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?
Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in BNH would grow to about $21,602 after 10 years, against $17,776 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 BNH pay dividends?
BNH pays quarterly — 4 payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule.
Is BNH'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 BNH's full payment history before relying on any of it.
Why is BNH's dividend yield so high?
BNH yields 7.78% against a 2.92% 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.
