In the same overview, Garmin Ltd. is shown with a trailing cash dividend per share in the low single-digit United States dollar range and a dividend yield around the mid-single-digit percent based on the latest indicated annual payout and the current price level, offering investors a combination of income and growth characteristics relative to pure high-growth peers that typically pay no dividend.
