Does Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR (CSAN) pay a dividend?+
No. Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR (CSAN) does not currently pay a dividend. The last payment in our data was in 2023, and nothing has been paid since.
How does Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR return cash to shareholders?+
Through share buybacks rather than dividends. Over the last twelve months Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR reduced its share count at a rate equivalent to a 1.8% buyback yield. A buyback returns value by shrinking the share count, so each remaining share owns more of the business, but unlike a dividend it pays you nothing in cash and can be stopped at any time without an announcement.
Could Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR afford to pay a dividend?+
On the numbers, yes. Cosan S.A. Sponsored ADR generated BRL 4.6 billion of free cash flow, which is about BRL 4.72 per share. If it paid out half of that, the dividend would be roughly BRL 2.36 per share, a yield of about 78.4% at the current price. That is an illustration of capacity, not a prediction: the company has given no indication it intends to pay one.
