This shouldn't take more than two minutes to implement: Dividend Per Share information.
You already give P/E for past 12 months. Give dividend payments for the same period. Take the "profit payment paid" value for the same period, divide by number of shares. Bonus points for dividing by 12 and giving us DPS/month.
An even easier and ostensibly more valuable approach: Assuming earnings per share (EPS) is after taxes, simply multiply it by the current "profit sharing" percentage. Yes, this can change in an instant, but it's a good snapshot of where the stock stands at this moment in time.
