Albemarle Corporation stands as a global innovator, producing and distributing a diverse portfolio of engineered specialty chemicals. Its business operations are divided into three principal segments: Lithium, Bromine, and Catalysts. The Lithium division supplies a variety of lithium compounds, including lithium carbonate, hydroxide, and chloride, alongside critical reagents like butyllithium. These materials are vital for manufacturing lithium-ion batteries found in electric vehicles and consumer electronics, as well as for high-performance greases, thermoplastic elastomers used in tires and plastics, and as catalysts for chemical reactions, organic synthesis in areas like steroid chemistry, vitamins, and the pharmaceutical industry. This segment also delivers cesium products for chemical and pharmaceutical applications, zirconium, barium, and titanium for pyrotechnic devices such as airbag initiators, offers expert technical services for the safe handling of reactive lithium products, and provides recycling solutions for lithium-containing by-products. The Bromine segment focuses on bromine and bromine-based fire safety compounds. It produces an array of specialty chemicals, including elemental bromine, various bromides, and brominated powdered activated carbon, which are utilized in chemical synthesis, fluids for oil and gas drilling, mercury emission control, water purification, and food processing. Additionally, it provides tertiary amines, which serve as key ingredients in surfactants, biocides, and sanitizers. Finally, the Catalysts segment offers a range of catalytic agents, including those for hydroprocessing, isomerization, and alkylation, alongside fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) catalysts and additives, as well as organometallics and curatives. Albemarle's products are integral to numerous industries, including energy storage, petroleum refining, consumer electronics, construction, automotive, lubricants, pharmaceuticals, and crop protection. Established in 1887, the company's headquarters are located in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Key Metrics
Current Yield
1.29%
The annual dividend as a percentage of the share price. A 3% yield is about $3 of dividends a year for every $100 invested at today's price.Annualized Dividend
$1.6200
The most recent payment scaled to a full year by how often it's paid. A $0.25 quarterly dividend annualizes to $1.00.Frequency
Q Quarterly
How often the dividend is paid: Q = quarterly (4x a year), M = monthly, S = semi-annual, A = annual.Rank Score
44.0
Our 0-100 house score blending yield, payout safety, growth and momentum. Higher means a stronger profile on those factors in our model — a research score, not advice or a recommendation to buy.RSI (14)
30
Relative Strength Index (0-100), a price-momentum gauge. Above 70 is often called 'overbought', below 30 'oversold'. A technical signal, not a dividend metric.52-Week Range
$67.30 – $215.62
The lowest and highest price over the past year — shows where today's price sits in its recent range.Payout Ratio
n/a
The share of GAAP earnings paid out as dividends. Lower leaves more cushion; above 100% means paying out more than the company earns. It shows n/a for BDCs, REITs and funds, which pay out of cash flow / net investment income rather than GAAP earnings, so this ratio doesn't apply.Years Paying
32
How many years of payments we have on record. This can understate very long histories where our data doesn't reach far enough back.S.A.F.E. Dividend Read
S
Sustainable Payout
Payout ratio is not meaningful here: reported earnings are negative (common for BDCs and REITs that pay from cash flow rather than GAAP earnings).
A
Payment Track Record
32 years of dividend payments.
F
Fair Valuation
Price-to-book 1.75.
E
Oversold Reading
Currently in the oversold range. RSI 30.
