WB was founded in August 2009 and is headquartered in Beijing, China.
Weibo Corp. creates, distributes, and discovers Chinese-language content. It operates through (1) Advertising and (2) Marketing Services segments.
Three key data points gauge WB (or any dividend paying entity):
(1) Price
(2) Dividends
(3) Returns
Those keys also indicate if any company has made, is making, and will make money.
WB Price
Weibo’s single share price grew $0.78 (or about 8%) from $10.03 to $10.81 this past year, per Thursday’s market report.
Nineteen analysts cover the stock.A repeat of last years 8% annual gain may be possible this year.
A peek at WB’s thirty-five-year price history shows an average annual share price loss of $.104
WB Dividends
Weibo has declared and paid variable annual dividends since July 2023.
The May, 2025 Annual dividend of $0.82 suggests the same annual dividend for the coming year.
WB Returns
Putting it all together, a hypothetical annual gross gain of $1.60 per share is predicted by adding the $0.82 forward-looking dividend to the $0.78 past year annual price-gain.
A little over $1000 invested at Thursday’s $10.76 share price would buy 93 shares which multiply the $1.60 gross gain to an estimated $148.70 upside for the coming year.
50% of that $149 upside gain could come from the $75.20 annual dividend payout from your $1,000 investment.
And the $75.20 dividend from $1k invested is 7 times more than WB’s $10.74 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.)
WB’s forthcoming dividend from $1,000 invested is about 7X more the price of a single share.
The exact track of WB’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.
