It has been reported that Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT) may disappoint some investors, even with a 19 percent dividend boost. The software giant is readying an announcement of a 19 percent dividend boost this week, but some investors who were looking forward to a bigger payout may be a bit frustrated, reports say.
Neil Herman, an analyst at Ticonderoga Securities, said in a report that, “If Microsoft were to match its peers on payout ratios, it would equate to a dividend yield increase to 6 percent from the current 2.6 percent, and include an approximate doubling of the company’s dividend”.
