Frequently asked questions

The 5 CAC 40 companies with the lowest payout ratio are: Safran SA (SAF, 16.89%), ArcelorMittal S.A. (MT, 18.32%), Eurofins Scientific SE (ERF, 23.53%), Société Générale SA (GLE, 24.14%) and Dassault Systèmes SE (DSY, 28.26%). Safran SA ranks first at 16.89%.

A payout ratio of 24.14% or lower places a CAC 40 stock in the top 10% on this metric. That covers the strongest 4 of the 39 ranked constituents.

There is no fixed threshold, so the index itself is the benchmark. Across the 39 ranked CAC 40 constituents, the median payout ratio is 58.84%. A stock below that level ranks ahead of the typical CAC 40 company, though it stays a relative gauge, not a full verdict.

Orange S.A. (ORA) has the highest payout ratio in the CAC 40, at 625.00%. Safran SA (SAF) has the lowest, at 16.89%.
