While the dividend yield is in the top 25% of German market payers, its history shows volatility and unreliability over the past decade.

Operations: Logwin AG's revenue segments consist of Solutions (€275.78 million) and Air + Ocean (€954.25 million).
Dividend Yield: 5.3%
Logwin AG's dividend payments are well-covered by both earnings (57% payout ratio) and cash flows (59.4% cash payout ratio), though the company has only paid dividends for six years. Recent earnings for H1 2024 showed a decline, with sales at €643.5 million and net income at €31.86 million, compared to €672.97 million and €40.49 million respectively a year ago, potentially affecting future dividend sustainability despite its high yield in the German market.
