Operations: Aalberts N.V. generates revenue through its Building Technology segment with €1.74 billion and its Industrial Technology segment with €1.49 billion.
Dividend Yield: 3.1%
Aalberts offers a mixed dividend profile with both strengths and challenges. While its dividends are covered by earnings (41% payout ratio) and cash flows (60.4% cash payout ratio), they have been volatile over the past decade, showing unreliability due to inconsistent growth. Recent earnings showed a decline, with net income at €149.2 million for H1 2024 compared to €160 million the previous year, potentially impacting future dividend stability despite trading below estimated fair value.
Koninklijke Heijmans
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Operations: Koninklijke Heijmans N.V.'s revenue segments include €871.03 million from Connecting and €1.83 billion from Segment Adjustment.
Dividend Yield: 3.4%
Koninklijke Heijmans shows a complex dividend profile. Despite a history of volatile and unreliable dividends, recent earnings growth is robust, with net income doubling to €37 million for H1 2024. Dividends are well-covered by both earnings (30% payout ratio) and cash flows (20.7% cash payout ratio), suggesting sustainability despite past instability. Trading significantly below fair value might appeal to value-focused investors, although the dividend yield remains modest compared to top-tier Dutch payers.
