Similar to Dividend Yield, Total Payout Yield % is a measurement of shareholder return. Dividends is not the only way that companies are able to distribute their excess cash back to the shareholders. The other way to distribute the cash is a stock repurchase. The stock repurchase buys back the company's own shares from the marketplace.

Lowe's is the second-largest home improvement retailer in the world, operating more than 1,700 stores in the United States, after the 2023 divestiture of its Canadian locations (RONA, Lowe's Canada, Réno-Dépôt, and Dick's Lumber). The firm's stores offer products and services for home decorating, maintenance, repair, and remodeling, with maintenance and repair accounting for two thirds of products sold. Lowe's targets retail do-it-yourself (around 75% of sales) and do-it-for-me customers as well as commercial and professional business clients (around 25% of sales). We estimate Lowe's captures a low-double-digit share of the domestic home improvement market, based on U.S. Census data and management's market size estimates.
