Per share isn't a good measure. You can split the same company into a hundred shares, a thousand shares, or a million shares. Cutting the pizza into more pieces doesn't change the size of the pizza.

I don't have a good alternative but maybe % of value?

Yeah, that was the convenient metric I could put my hands on and bother typing out in mobile.

S&P 500 ETF gross dividend yield 0.71%

ANZ 5.22%

Westpac 4.41%

So the banks are considerably more profitable than the entire S&P 500.
