Despite a reliable dividend yield of 4.18%, it falls short compared to the top quartile in Singapore's market.

Test Research's dividends have increased over the past decade, though they remain volatile and unreliable. The recent dividend increase to TWD 5 per share reflects improved earnings, with net income rising to TWD 1.1 billion for the first half of 2025. Despite a reasonable payout ratio of 60.3% and coverage by cash flows, its yield of 3.12% is below Taiwan's top quartile, suggesting limited competitiveness in dividend returns compared to leading payers in the market.
