Definition of earnings yield

Definition: Earnings yield is the ratio of a company's earnings per share to its market price per share, expressed as a percentage. It is a measure of the return on investment for a stock.

Examples:

  • If a company has earnings per share of $5 and a market price per share of $100, its earnings yield would be 5%.
  • A company with earnings per share of $2 and a market price per share of $50 would have an earnings yield of 4%.

These examples illustrate how earnings yield is calculated by dividing a company's earnings per share by its market price per share. The resulting percentage can be used to compare the return on investment for different stocks.
