Dividend Declared

On July 12, 2017, RMR Group announced a regular quarterly cash dividend on its shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B-1 Common Stock of $0.25 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2017 ($1.00 per share per year). This distribution will be paid to RMR’s shareholders of record as of the close of business on July 24, 2017, and distributed on or about August 17, 2017.

RMR Group’s indicated dividend represents a yield of 2.03% compared to the average dividend yield of 3.20% for the financial sector.

Dividend Insights

RMR Group has a dividend payout ratio of 54.3%, which indicates that the Company distributes approximately $0.54 for every $1.00 earned. The dividend payout ratio reflects how much money a Company is returning to shareholders versus how much money it is keeping on hand to reinvest in growth, to pay off debt, and/or to add to its cash reserves.

According to analysts’ estimates, RMR Group is expected to report earnings of $2.03, which is more than double of the Company’s annualized dividend of $1.00.

As on March 31, 2017, RMR Group had cash and cash equivalents worth $133.06 million, while the Company’s current assets totaled approximately $161.44 million against current liability of $33.26 million. The strong financial position provides a cushion for the Company to absorb any fluctuations in earnings and pay its dividend without interruption for a long period of time.
