Hydro One (TSE:H) Is Increasing Its Dividend To CA$0.3331

Hydro One Limited (TSE:H) will increase its dividend from last year's comparable payment on the 30th of June to CA$0.3331. Even though the dividend went up, the yield is still quite low at only 2.6%. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. The dividend yield is a little bit low, but sustainability of the payments is also an important part of evaluating an income stock. Based on the last payment, Hydro One's earnings were much higher than the dividend, but it wasn't converting those earnings into cash flow. No cash flows could definitely make returning cash to shareholders difficult, or at least mean the balance sheet will come under pressure. Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 16.4%. If the dividend continues on this path, the payout ratio could be 26% by next year, which we think can be pretty sustainable going forward. See our latest analysis for Hydro One Even though the company has been paying a consistent dividend for a while, we would like to see a few more years before we feel comfortable relying on it. Since 2016, the dividend has gone from CA$0.84 total annually to CA$1.33. This works out to be a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 5.3% a year over that time. The dividend has been growing as a reasonable rate, which we like. However, investors will probably want to see a longer track record before they consider Hydro One to be a consistent dividend paying stock. Some investors will be chomping at the bit to buy some of the company's stock based on its dividend history. It's encouraging to see that Hydro One has been growing its earnings per share at 7.9% a year over the past five years. The lack of cash flows does make us a bit cautious though, especially when it comes to the future of the dividend. In summary, while it's always good to see the dividend being raised, we don't think Hydro One's payments are rock solid. With cash flows lacking, it is difficult to see how the company can sustain a dividend payment. This company is not in the top tier of income providing stocks. Market movements attest to how highly valued a consistent dividend policy is compared to one which is more unpredictable. Still, investors need to consider a host of other factors, apart from dividend payments, when analysing a company.
