Despite a dividend yield of 3.22%, placing it in the top quartile of CN market payers, its high cash payout ratio (93.2%) raises concerns about sustainability. The dividend is covered by earnings but not free cash flows, and past payments have been volatile and unreliable, with significant annual drops over the last decade.

Dividend Yield: 3.8%
Warabeya Nichiyo Holdings offers a stable dividend history over the past decade, with payments consistently growing. However, the 3.76% yield is below top-tier levels in Japan and not well-supported by free cash flows or profits, despite a reasonable payout ratio of 58.7%. Recent challenges include delays in its U.S. expansion plans due to construction setbacks, potentially impacting future financial stability and dividend sustainability. The stock trades at good value relative to peers and industry standards.
