Dividend Declared

On July 26, 2017, Forrester announced that its Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.19 per share, payable September 20, 2017, to shareholders of record on September 06, 2017.

Forrester’s indicated dividend represents a yield of 1.87% compared to the average dividend yield of 2.08% for the Services sector. Forrester has increased its payout for once year.

Dividend Insights

Forrester has a dividend payout ratio of 83.5%, which means that the Company distributes approximately $0.84 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, Forrester is forecasted to report earnings of $1.34 for the next year which is substantially above its annualized dividend of $0.76.

Forrester’s cash generated by operations in the quarter ended June 30, 2017, was $26.89 million compared to $31.46 million. As of June 30, 2017, Forrester’s cash and cash equivalents totaled $125.24 million. The Company’s strong financial position indicates its ability to absorb any fluctuations in earnings and cash flow and to sustain its dividend distribution for a long period.
