  • Autohome's Special Dividend and Rising Institutional Stakes Spark Portfolio Review
    February 1, 2026, 4:08 PM EST. Autohome (ATHM) announced a special dividend payable February 19 to shareholders of record December 31. Institutional investors like Federated Hermes, Invesco, and Schroder increased holdings in Q3, signaling growing confidence. The dividend underscores Autohome's strong balance sheet and capital return strategy, though near-term growth and profitability challenges persist with subdued margins and earnings forecasts.
