If you want to make $100 per month – $1,200 annually – from Gilead Sciences dividends, your investment value needs to be approximately $35,503, which is around 390 shares at $91.09 each.
Understanding dividend yield calculations: When estimating, you need two key variables – the desired annual income ($1,200) and the dividend yield (3.38% in this case). So, $1,200 / 0.0338 = $35,503 to generate an income of $100 per month.
You can calculate the dividend yield by dividing the annual dividend payments by the stock’s current price.

The dividend yield can change over time due to fluctuating stock prices and dividend payments on a rolling basis.
For instance, assume a stock that pays $2 as an annual dividend is priced at $50. Its dividend yield would be $2/$50 = 4%. If the stock price rises to $60, the dividend yield drops to 3.33% ($2/$60). A drop in stock price to $40 will have an inverse effect and increase the dividend yield to 5% ($2/$40).
In summary, income-focused investors may find Gilead Sciences stock an attractive option for making a steady income of $100 per month by owning 390 shares of stock. There may be more upside as investors benefit from the company’s consistent dividend hikes. Gilead Sciences has raised its dividend consecutively for the last nine years.
