Hikma Pharmaceuticals paid a dividend of £0.62 per share for the 2025 financial year; the total payout amounts to £140.38 million, 2.50% above the previous year. The ex-dividend date was 24 April 2026, and the dividend yield for 2025 is 4.03%. Over three years the share price in London fell by 23.94%, but total return (price plus dividends) rose by 31.97%. FactSet analysts expect a dividend of $0.85 per share for 2026, which would lift the yield to about 4.69%. » Mais em finanzen.net

Hikma has confirmed its 2026 outlook after a first quarter that went as expected. The injectables division is targeting low single-digit revenue growth with an adjusted operating margin of 27–28%, driven by strong US demand for Tyzavan. The US-Rx division also progressed as planned, supported by the launch of a generic tapentadol; expansion projects in Bedford and Columbus are advancing. The company is exiting the 503b compounding business, has repurchased £54.8m of shares up to 17 April, and is monitoring the geopolitical situation in the Middle East while sales remain robust but it faces cost-driven inflationary pressure. » Mais em de.investing.com
