CAG Dividend Yield
How CAG's trailing 12-month dividend yield is calculated, and what it does and does not account for.
Yield methodology
CAG's trailing dividend yield is the regular dividends paid over the last twelve months divided by the latest available share price. Payouts classified as special or supplemental are excluded, because a one-off payment is not recurring income. It is a backward-looking measure and is not the same as a forward yield, which annualises the most recent declared payment instead.
Dividend coverage
Coverage is read from earnings and cash flow rather than from the yield. A payout ratio leaves room, or does not; free cash flow either covers the payment, or the company is funding it another way. These are inputs to a judgement, not a guarantee of future payments.

Dividend yield is only the starting point. Pair the current distribution with payout ratio, free cash flow coverage, balance-sheet risk, and the history of actual payments before treating income as durable.
A higher yield is more useful when earnings and free cash flow cover the distribution. A yield caused by a falling stock price can be a warning, not a bargain.
Stable or rising payments can indicate capital return discipline. Flat, skipped, or missing payments should be read with earnings and cash flow before drawing conclusions.
A low payout ratio can leave room for growth; a high payout ratio can indicate limited cushion. Cyclical companies need more room than stable defensive businesses.
