Abstract

An investor expects returns from their investment activity in the form of dividend and capital gains. Distribution of this dividend will not only improve the welfare of the shareholder, but also signal the capital market or potential future investors for the company’s growth performance. This signal could lead the increase of a company’s stock price on the stock exchange. Using the two-stage least square method, this study investigated the effect on a company’s dividend payout ratio that financial ratios such as profitability, operating cash flow per share, corporate tax, current ratio, market-to-book value, debt-to-equity ratio, and sales growth may have. The effects of these payouts may also impact the market share price. The regression test used in this research shows that only profitability and operating cash flow affect the dividend payout ratio with a positive relationship. Furthermore, the dividend payout ratio positively affects the stock price. Profitability and operating cash flow directly and positively affect the stock price. The conclusion is that the higher the profitability and the operating cash flow of the firm, the higher the dividend payout ratio and subsequently, the higher the stock price. Firms with a high profitability signal good financial performance to an investor. A high profitability and operating cash flow ensure a firm has the ability to pay out more dividend. This distribution of dividend therefore provides positive signals to investors and leads to an increase in stock price.
