Barco
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Barco NV, along with its subsidiaries, develops visualization solutions for the entertainment, enterprise, and healthcare markets across the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific regions with a market cap of €854.81 million.
Operations: Barco NV's revenue segments are divided into Enterprise (€271.43 million), Healthcare (€269.53 million), and Entertainment (€422.79 million).
Dividend Yield: 4.3%
Barco's dividend, yielding 4.34%, is covered by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 77.8% and 54%, respectively. Over the past decade, dividends have been stable and reliable, though the yield is lower than Belgium's top tier. Trading at a significant discount to its estimated fair value suggests potential upside. Recent innovations like SmartFocus could bolster future growth prospects, aligning with forecasts of a 17.6% annual earnings increase.
Bénéteau
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Bénéteau S.A. designs, manufactures, and sells boats and leisure homes in France and internationally, with a market cap of €701.55 million.
Operations: Bénéteau S.A. generates revenue primarily from its boat segment, which accounts for €1.21 billion.
Dividend Yield: 7.1%
Bénéteau offers a dividend yield of 7.13%, placing it among the top 25% in France. However, its dividends are not covered by free cash flows and have been volatile over the past decade, with significant annual drops. The payout ratio is reasonable at 65.8%, suggesting coverage by earnings, but declining earnings forecasts raise concerns about sustainability. Recent buyback plan expiration may impact future capital allocation strategies without immediate effect on dividend reliability or growth prospects.
