Inditex has adopted a more dividend-oriented profile and for this, it has not only clarified its roadmap for this year, but has also left brushstrokes given for the next one, with an extraordinary 0.4 euros. The textile firm will pay two payments of the same amount on May 2 and November 2 of this year, until completing the expected annual disbursement of 0.93 euros gross (distributed in two installments of 0.465 euros).

This means placing the payment 33% above the 70 cents of last year, and at historical levels. The point is that Inditex’s payment has become sufficiently attractive, not only because of its amount but also because of the fall in its shares on the stock market, which have dropped 27% in the year and are the hardest hit on the Ibex.
Buying Inditex shares today below 21 euros implies returns of 4.5%. Its shares have been falling for four consecutive days after the presentation of its annual results, which did not convince analysts, and after the closure of its 515 stores in Russia (its second market after Spain) and the 85 it has in Ukraine. The objective, as stated this week by its CEO Óscar García Maceiras, is to reopen as soon as possible.
The trend in its shareholder remuneration will continue to rise. The only thing that the firm has already revealed is that, charged to the 2022/23 financial year, it will distribute an extraordinary payment of 0.40 euros, which is 10 cents above this year’s. Analysts forecast a dividend of 1.09 euros gross per share next year. If the expectation is met, it would increase by 17% and would be the highest in its history. At current prices, this payment means buying a dividend in 2023 that yields 5.3% at current prices. Bearing in mind that Inditex’s profit will beat 4,000 million euros in 2024 -at last-, and that the textile company distributes 60% of it among its shareholders, the dividend will increase progressively, up to 1,164 in 2024 and 1,233 in 2025.
