Victrex is funding its 10.4% dividend yield with debt
Investors holding Victrex shares now receive a 10.4% dividend yield. This yield climbed from 2.5% as management maintained payouts while the stock price fell close to 70% since April 2021. The decline was driven by a global inventory glut and higher interest rates reducing demand for PEEK polymers. In 2025, Victrex paid 59.56p per share in dividends against earnings per share of 32p. The company is taking on debt to fund dividend payments.
