Dividend Yield: 6.9%
GWA Group's dividend yield of 6.86% is among the top in Australia, yet its high payout ratio of 111.7% suggests dividends are not well covered by earnings, despite being supported by cash flows at a 71.9% rate. The company's dividend history has been volatile and unreliable over the past decade, with recent increases indicating some growth. Recent leadership changes may impact strategic direction, but current financials show modest sales growth to A$209.87 million for H1 2025.
