Gates Industrial Corporation (GTES) has never paid a dividend. It returns cash through buybacks instead, at roughly a 2.2% buyback yield over the last twelve months.

All figures are computed from company filings; this is analysis, not investment advice.
Frequently asked
Does Gates Industrial Corporation (GTES) pay a dividend?+
No. Gates Industrial Corporation (GTES) does not pay a dividend, and no dividend payment appears anywhere in the filing history we hold.
How does Gates Industrial Corporation return cash to shareholders?+
Through share buybacks rather than dividends. Over the last twelve months Gates Industrial Corporation reduced its share count at a rate equivalent to a 2.2% 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 Gates Industrial Corporation afford to pay a dividend?+
On the numbers, yes. Gates Industrial Corporation generated $405 million of free cash flow, which is about $1.58 per share. If it paid out half of that, the dividend would be roughly $0.79 per share, a yield of about 3.0% at the current price. That is an illustration of capacity, not a prediction: the company has given no indication it intends to pay one.
