Operations: Voyageurs du Monde SA generates revenue through its segments, including Bike (€113.78 million), Adventure Tours (€205.99 million), and Tailor-Made Trips (€414.62 million).
Dividend Yield: 3.4%
Voyageurs du Monde's dividend profile reveals a mix of strengths and weaknesses. While the company trades at 35.1% below its estimated fair value and earnings are growing, its dividend yield of 3.41% is lower than the French market's top quartile rate of 5.42%. Despite a volatile dividend history, current payouts are well-covered by both earnings (36.2%) and cash flows (37.9%). Recent earnings growth supports stability, with sales reaching €735.27 million in 2024 from €693.59 million in 2023.

Dividend Yield: 3.1%
Equasens Société anonyme's dividend profile shows stability, with consistent growth over the past decade. The proposed €1.25 per share dividend for 2024 reflects this reliability, although its yield of 3.09% is modest compared to the French market's top quartile. Trading at a significant discount to estimated fair value, the company's dividends are well-covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 44.5%. Ongoing investments may impact short-term profitability but support long-term revenue growth targets for 2025.
