Dividend Yield: 3.6%
Dynapac's dividend payments have been reliable and stable, growing over the past decade with a low payout ratio of 17.3%, indicating coverage by earnings. However, the dividends are not supported by free cash flows, raising sustainability concerns despite high-quality earnings and significant profit growth of 154.2% last year. The dividend yield of 3.61% is slightly below top-tier payers in Japan, but its price-to-earnings ratio of 5.5x suggests good value compared to the market average.
