DPZ Domino's Pizza, Inc.
Domino's Pizza, Inc. has a solid dividend profile with no major red flags in the snapshot data.
Why we rate it 7.3
- Yield of 2.16% is in the typical sustainable zone (2-4%)
- Payout ratio of 40% leaves significant room to grow the dividend or absorb earnings dips
- Current yield is much higher than the 5-year average of 1.21% — usually means price has fallen sharply
Where DPZ ranks
We compute the same 0–10 safety score across 53 dividend-paying stocks and ETFs. Here's where DPZ lands inside that universe.
The universe is curated to the most-searched US dividend payers. We'll expand it as the data layer grows; sector percentiles only appear when we have at least 5 comparable peers.
The two questions a safety score doesn't answer
A safety score tells you how durable DPZ's payout looks. It does not tell you what you keep after tax, or whether something else does the same job better.
On tax: what you actually pocket depends on whether DPZ dividends are qualified — qualified distributions are taxed at 0%, 15%, or 20%, while ordinary ones are taxed at your full marginal rate, a gap that can reach 22 percentage points of the income on the same headline yield.
On substitutes: if DPZ's 7.3/10 score is lower than you want, see DPZ alternatives — same-sector stocks ranked by how closely they match DPZ on both yield and safety, so you can see what a swap actually costs you.
