Ultimately, shareholders want to see a good return on their investment and that generally comes from sharing in the company's profits.

If the company is well already established it may also be a sign the company has matured and is in decline. In addition, if the company pays dividends it will also likely need to reduce or cut them, striking a dual blow to total shareholder returns.
