Telecommunications company in the TecDAX with the highest dividend yields
Numerous companies with returns of up to three percent
Some companies do not pay dividends

Investors can look forward to record dividends from DAX companies this year. Some companies in the MDAX are also increasing their dividends. This is how it is with the dividend yields of the TecDAX shares according to estimates by Factset (as of April 11, 2022).

These companies shine with the highest dividend yields

Telefonica Deutschland can probably come up with the highest dividend yield in the TecDAX. The company wants to pay out a dividend of EUR 0.18 to its investors for 2021, which corresponds to a dividend yield of 7.38 percent. Another communications service provider, freenet, follows in second place. The company is expected to offer its investors a dividend yield of 6.66 percent. Deutsche Telekom intends to distribute a dividend of EUR 0.64 for 2021, which corresponds to a dividend yield of 3.95 percent.

Between one and three percent dividend yield

S&T (2.4 percent), Vantage Towers (2.29 percent), Software AG (2.18 percent), Varta AG (2.16 percent) and Siltronic (2.12 percent) all come up with more than two percent.

After all, AIXTRON and CANCOM are likely to pay out more than one percent dividend yield at 1.68 percent each. AIXTRON wants to pay its investors a dividend of EUR 0.30 for 2021, while CANCOM pays one euro. This is followed by SAP and Siemens Healthineers with a dividend yield of 1.52 percent. At United Internet, the dividend yield should meanwhile be around 1.43 percent.

Companies with less than 1 percent dividend yield

A dividend yield of less than one percent is expected for the IT company Bechtle – this should be around 0.87 percent. Infineon follows with a return of 0.76 percent. With 0.70 percent, the software company CompuGroup is in 16th place among the TecDAX companies with the highest dividend yield, followed by the technology group JENOPTIK with a yield of 0.67 percent. Eckert & Ziegler should offer its shareholders a dividend yield of 0.59 percent. Carl Zeiss Meditec should achieve a dividend yield of 0.54 percent with a dividend of EUR 0.90, while VERBIO should achieve a yield of 0.46 percent with a dividend of EUR 0.20. The dividend yield at the software provider Nemetschek should amount to 0.35 percent. With their expected dividends of EUR 0.05 and EUR 1.25 respectively, the companies 1&1 AG and Sartorius have a dividend yield of 0.21 percent.

Some companies waive dividend payments

While many companies keep their dividends high or even increase them, there are also companies that do not pay dividends to their shareholders. Some of these are growth companies that reinvest the profits they make, but there are also companies that have not performed well enough to be able or should be able to distribute profits. EVOTEC, MorphoSys and QIAGEN, three companies from the pharmaceutical and biotechnology sector in the German technology stock index TecDAX, do not distribute dividends to their shareholders. Investors in the wind turbine manufacturer Nordex and the software companies SUSE, TeamViewer and Nagarro will also not receive a dividend.
