What is TotalEnergies' dividend payout?

Total's current dividend payment is €2.76 per share. This is the dividend that will be paid in 2022 and is based on the financial year 2021.

When is Total's dividend paid?

The dividend for each year is calculated on the results of the previous year. Thus, the amount of the 2022 TotalEnergies dividend corresponds to the results of the 2021 financial year. 

One of the specificities of TotalEnergies is that it distributes its dividends on a quarterly basis, i.e. four times a year, as is usually the case for American shares.

Thus, in 2021, the amount of €2.64 per share was paid in four instalments of €0.66, with one payment per quarter. 

Typically, the first payment is made in October of the relevant year, the second in January of the following year, the third in April and the fourth in July.

 

What is the next dividend forecast for the TotalEnergies share?

The next dividend that the Total Group plans to pay to its shareholders was announced at the beginning of 2022 and thus concerns the financial year 2021. Thanks to the rise in oil prices observed since the end of 2020, the group has decided to increase the amount of its dividend to €2.76 per share. This makes two years in a row that Total has increased its dividend.

The group continues to rely on its significant financial stability, both in terms of costs and dividend distribution. Indeed, the group maintained a high dividend during the Covid pandemic, which allowed it to increase the yield of its share during the year 2020 with a stock price that had nevertheless fallen. In the end, the share price still recovered with the rise in energy commodity prices and thus exceeded its pre-Covid level.

Here are the dates of the next Total dividends:

  • Payment 1 on 13/01/2022
  • Payment 2 on 01/04/2022
  • Payment 3 on 01/07/2022
  • Payment 4 on 03/10/2022
