### Comment:
Which is why it is usually the established firms that give dividends?

### REPLY:
typically companies that aren't growing much anymore and don't have debt to pay off will give dividends, because they have nothing else to do with the profits.

 edit: however, companies like apple have instead gone the buyback route, which essentially keeps the profits in the share price.
