Operations: The Hour Glass Limited generates revenue of SGD1.13 billion from its activities in retailing and distributing watches, jewelry, and luxury products across various regions.
Dividend Yield: 4.8%
The Hour Glass has a volatile dividend history, with payments experiencing significant drops over the past decade, making them unreliable. Despite this, its dividends are well-covered by earnings (33.5% payout ratio) and cash flows (46.2% cash payout ratio), indicating sustainability. A recent approval of a 6-cent dividend per share highlights ongoing shareholder returns. The stock's price-to-earnings ratio of 6.9x suggests it is undervalued compared to the Singapore market average of 11.6x.

Recent board changes may influence future governance strategies.
