Norsk Hydro (OB:NHY)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Norsk Hydro ASA operates globally in power production, bauxite extraction, alumina refining, aluminium smelting, and recycling, with a market cap of NOK134.54 billion.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%

Norsk Hydro's dividend reliability is challenged by a volatile history, though recent payouts are covered by earnings and cash flows with payout ratios of 46.5% and 43.3%, respectively. Despite trading at a significant discount to estimated fair value, its yield of 3.31% falls short compared to Norway's top dividend payers. Recent cost-cutting measures aim to bolster long-term resilience, potentially impacting future dividends amidst fluctuating profits and revenue growth driven by strategic realignments.
