Three key data points gauge BMWKY (or any dividend paying entity):

(1) Price 

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

Those three keys also indicate if any company has made, is making, and will make money.

BMWKY Price

Bayerische Motoren Werke’s single share price increased $0.82 (or 2.7%) from $29.91.95 to $30.73 this past year, per Friday’s market report.

No analysts cover the stock. However BMW’s average annual price increase was $1.24 over the past seventeen years; moving from $9.70 to $30.73.

BMWKY Dividends

Bayerische Motoren Werke has paid variable annual dividends since May, 2009. (BMWKY dividend dropped as low as $0.77 following the Covid crash.) 

However, the May 2025 A dividend of $1.58 points to a likely $1.48 annual dividend for the coming year. 

BMWKY Returns

Putting it all together, a possible annual gross gain of $2.72 per share is predicted by adding the $1.48 forward-looking dividend to a 1yr  $1.24 annual price-gain next year.

A little over $1000 invested at Friday’s $30.73 share price would buy 32.5 shares which multiply the $2.72 estimated gross gain to a $88.51 upside for the coming year.

57.9% of that $89 upside gain could come from the $51.50 annual dividend payout from your $1,000 investment.

And the $51.50 annual dividend from $1k invested is 1.67 times the BMWKF $30.73 single share price.

A dividend dogcatcher rule is to only buy initial shares of a stock that pay an annual dividend (from $1000 invested) that is greater than the cost of a single share.

The exact track of BMWKY’s future share price and dividend will entirely be determined by market action and company finances.  

Remember the best way to track stock performance and dividend payments is through direct ownership of company shares.
