Dividend Yield: 3.2%
Romande Energie Holding offers stable and reliable dividends, having consistently increased payouts over the past decade. However, its 3.16% yield is lower than the top Swiss dividend payers and is not supported by free cash flows, raising sustainability concerns. Despite this, the low payout ratio of 23.5% suggests earnings coverage remains strong. Trading at a price-to-earnings ratio of 7.4x indicates good relative value compared to peers in the Swiss market (21x).

Operations: Hisense Home Appliances Group Co., Ltd. generates revenue through the production and distribution of household electrical appliances under brands such as Hisense, Ronshen, Kelon, Hitachi, gorenge, ASKO, and York across domestic and international markets.
Dividend Yield: 3.2%
Hisense Home Appliances Group offers a dividend yield in the top 25% of the Chinese market, supported by strong earnings and cash flow coverage with payout ratios of 43.1% and 24.3%, respectively. However, its dividend history is less stable, showing volatility over nine years. Recent earnings growth supports its financial health, but investors should note potential impacts from strategic changes like executive shifts and possible investments in India through Epack Manufacturing Technologies.

Strabag's dividend payments, while covered by earnings and cash flows with payout ratios of 35.4% and 39%, have been volatile over the past decade. Although trading at a significant discount to its estimated fair value, shareholders experienced dilution last year. Despite recent earnings growth of 28%, future earnings are expected to decline by an average of 4.7% annually over the next three years, impacting the sustainability of its dividend yield compared to market peers.
