What makes up TLK's 10.74% yield
TLK paid $1.23 per share over the last twelve months against a share price of $11.43, which is where the 10.74% comes from. Special and one-off distributions are excluded from that figure — they do not recur, and including them would overstate every projection below.
A yield rises for two very different reasons, and they are indistinguishable in the number itself: the company raised its payment, or its share price fell. At more than three times the market median the second explanation is common enough to have a name — the yield trap — and it matters here because every projection on this page multiplies the current yield forward. If the price fell because the market expects the payment to be cut, these figures are calculated from a rate that will not survive.
Telecom dividends are funded from cash flows that carry heavy, continuous network capital spending ahead of them. That spending is not discretionary, which is what makes the payout ratio the number to watch in this sector.
When TLK pays, and what that changes
TLK pays 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 TLK'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. TLK's full schedule and payment history are on its dividend page.
Is TLK's dividend covered by earnings?
TLK's payout ratio of 1.36 means the dividend exceeds reported earnings — the company is distributing more than it earned. That is sustainable for a period from cash reserves or borrowing, and it is the single most relevant caveat on this page, because the ten-year figures above assume the payment continues at its present level throughout.
The figures hold the dividend flat, and that assumption carries more weight for TLK 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.
TLK dividend calculator FAQ
- How much does $10,000 in TLK pay in dividends?
- At TLK's current yield of 10.74%, $10,000 pays about $1,074.30 a year — roughly $1,074.30 per payment, paid annual, or $89.52 a month averaged out.
- What would TLK be worth after 10 years with dividends reinvested?
- Reinvesting every dividend and assuming the payment and share price both stay flat, $10,000 in TLK would grow to about $27,743 after 10 years, against $20,743 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 TLK pay dividends?
- TLK pays annual — 1 payments a year — based on its actual payment history rather than an assumed schedule.
- Is TLK'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 TLK's full payment history before relying on any of it.
- Why is TLK's dividend yield so high?
- TLK yields 10.74% against a 2.82% 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.
- Can TLK afford its dividend?
- TLK's payout ratio is 1.36, meaning the dividend currently exceeds reported earnings. That gap can be funded from cash or borrowing for a period, but not indefinitely from profits. The projections on this page assume the payment continues unchanged, which is an assumption rather than a finding — check the full payment history and the company's own filings before relying on it.
