Panel data were examined with the assistance of Eviews 9.0 software. Data collected from the company's financial statements and measured using a formula adopted from earlier research. Findings: Empirical results found that capital ratio, prior year-earnings, sales growth, and corporate taxes did not significantly affect the dividend payout ratio. While return on assets has a positive effect on dividend payout ratio.

Limitations & Recommendations: This finding recommends that investors should pay attention to company profitability by measuring return on assets.
