How To Earn $500 A Month From Pfizer Stock Ahead Of Q4 Earnings Print

Pfizer Inc. (NYSE: PFE) is expected to release earnings results for its fourth quarter, before the opening bell on Jan. 30, 2024.

Analysts expect the New York-based pharma giant to report quarterly earnings at 22 cents per share, versus year-ago earnings of $1.14 per share. The company is projected to report quarterly revenue of $14.25 billion, compared to $24.29 billion in the year-earlier quarter, according to data from Benzinga Pro.

For FY24, Pfizer expects revenue of $58.5 billion-$61.5 billion, including the expected contribution from the Seagen acquisition versus the consensus of $63.17 billion. The company sees FY24 adjusted diluted EPS guidance of $2.05-$2.25, including the expected impact of the Seagen acquisition, compared to the consensus of $3.17.

With the recent buzz around Pfizer, some investors may be eyeing potential gains from the company’s dividends. As of now, Pfizer has a dividend yield of 6.12%, which is a quarterly dividend amount of 42 cents a share ($1.68 a year).

To figure out how to earn $500 monthly from Pfizer dividends, we start with the yearly target of $6,000 ($500 x 12 months).

Next, we take this amount and divide it by Pfizer’s $1.68 dividend: $6,000 / $1.68 = 3,571 shares

So, an investor would need to own approximately $98,095 worth of Pfizer, or 3,571 shares to generate a monthly dividend income of $500.

Assuming a more conservative goal of $100 monthly ($1,200 annually), we do the same calculation: $1,200 / $1.68 = 714 shares, or $19,614 to generate a monthly dividend income of $100.
