Dividends & Yields

These figures cover the twelve months ended June 30, 2026. The dividend payout ratio of -2.28 is negative because earnings are negative, so the dividend is being paid out of something other than profits, a key gauge of how sustainable the dividend is and how much room remains for future dividend growth. Free cash flow yield is negative at -1.83: the business is consuming cash rather than generating it, so any dividend is not covered by free cash flow. Total shareholder yield is negative at -7.34, meaning GDS Holdings Ltd. raised more capital through share issuance and new debt than it returned via dividends and buybacks.
