PINC Shareholder Yields
Earnings, FCF, buyback, and dividend yields — total returns to shareholders
Premier, Inc. returns 20.1% to shareholders annually — split between a 3.0% dividend yield and 17.1% buyback yield. The payout ratio exceeds 100% at 382.1%, meaning the company is paying out more than it earns — this level is unsustainable long-term without earnings recovery. The earnings yield of 0.8% (inverse of P/E) provides a useful comparison to bond yields when assessing the stock's relative attractiveness to fixed income.
