Dividend Yield: 3%
Bangkok Dusit Medical Services faces challenges for dividend investors due to a volatile and unreliable dividend history over the past decade. Despite this, the company's dividends are supported by earnings with a payout ratio of 71.2% and cash flows with an 89.6% cash payout ratio, indicating sustainability in payments. However, its 3% yield is low compared to top Thai dividend payers, and analysts expect significant stock price appreciation from current levels.
