UE Shareholder Yields
Earnings, FCF, buyback, and dividend yields — total returns to shareholders
Urban Edge Properties returns 3.4% to shareholders annually — split between a 3.4% dividend yield and 0.0% buyback yield. The payout ratio exceeds 100% at 102.1%, meaning the company is paying out more than it earns — this level is unsustainable long-term without earnings recovery. The earnings yield of 3.3% (inverse of P/E) provides a useful comparison to bond yields when assessing the stock's relative attractiveness to fixed income.
