Philippine Seven

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Philippine Seven Corporation operates convenience stores in the Philippines with a market cap of ₱82.83 billion.

Operations: Philippine Seven Corporation generates revenue primarily from store operations, amounting to ₱88.61 billion.

Dividend Yield: 8.8%

Philippine Seven's dividend yield of 8.77% ranks in the top 25% of the Philippine market, but its sustainability is questionable due to a high payout ratio of 191.4%, indicating dividends are not well-covered by earnings. While cash flows support the dividend with a reasonable cash payout ratio of 71%, past payments have been volatile and unreliable, experiencing significant drops over time. Recent delisting from OTC Equity may also impact investor perception and accessibility.
