Alibaba Group Holding Limited dividend sits at a 0.92% yield, backed by a sprawling digital ecosystem spanning e-commerce platforms like Taobao and Tmall, cloud computing, logistics, and digital media. BABA pays dividends monthly, with a trailing annual rate of $7.06 per share and an ex-dividend date of June 11, 2026. The yield is low, but the dividend growth rate tells a different story. With a beta of 0.51, BABA stock moves at roughly half the volatility of the broader market, which suits growth-and-income investors who can accept a modest current yield in exchange for rapid dividend expansion.
Alibaba Group Holding Limited pays out dividends at a payout ratio classified as not applicable (fund/ETF). What currently supports the payout level is the breadth of BABA's revenue-generating operations, which span China Commerce, Alibaba Cloud, international retail platforms like AliExpress and Lazada, and logistics through Cainiao Network. Alibaba Group Holding Limited dividend safety is difficult to assess precisely without a traditional payout ratio, and the primary risk is that dividend decisions for a company of this structure can shift based on capital allocation priorities across its seven operating segments.
Alibaba Group Holding Limited dividend history shows a CAGR of 41.4% per year from 2023 to 2025. The per-share annual dividend grew from $1.00 in 2023 to $2.00 in 2025 (2026 data is partial and not included in this calculation). The smallest annual increase in the window was 20.5% in 2025, which still represents a pace well above what most income-focused stocks deliver.
BABA fits growth-and-income investors who prioritize dividend growth over current yield, not those seeking immediate income from a high payout. The yield is low (below 2%) at 0.92%, sitting below the 5-year average yield of 1.3%, which means the stock currently delivers less income relative to its own history. What an investor gets is a dividend that has grown at 41.4% per year over the available history, powered by a business with diversified revenue streams across e-commerce, cloud, and logistics. The trade-off is straightforward: current income is thin, and the payout ratio is not calculable in a traditional sense, so dividend sustainability cannot be benchmarked the usual way.
