Piquadro (BIT:PQ)

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

Overview: Piquadro S.p.A. designs, produces, and markets leather goods and accessories in Italy, the rest of Europe, and internationally with a market cap of €117.60 million.

Operations: Piquadro's revenue is derived from its segments: Lancel (€69.18 million), Piquadro (€82.34 million), and The Bridge (€35.84 million).

Dividend Yield: 6%

Piquadro's dividend of €0.1482 per share, with a payout ratio of 61.8%, is covered by earnings but has shown volatility over the past decade, making it unreliable despite growth in payments. The dividend yield is in the top 25% for Italy at 5.95%. Recent financials show sales and net income growth to €183.61 million and €11.58 million, respectively, yet insufficient data exists on cash flow coverage or long-term sustainability of dividends.

Dividend Yield: 4.8%

SpareBank 1 Helgeland's dividend is covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 51.4%, though past payments have been volatile and unreliable. Despite a 4.8% yield, it trails the top Norwegian payers. Earnings have grown at 18.4% annually over five years, and dividends are forecast to remain covered at 79%. Recent Q2 results show stable income, while a NOK 300 million bond offering could impact future financial flexibility and dividend sustainability.

Andritz (WBAG:ANDR)

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

Overview: Andritz AG provides industrial machinery, equipment, and services globally, with a market cap of €6.19 billion.

Operations: Andritz AG's revenue is derived from four main segments: Metals (€1.71 billion), Hydro Power (€1.65 billion), Pulp & Paper (€3.10 billion), and Environment & Energy (€1.52 billion).

Dividend Yield: 4.1%

Andritz's dividend is supported by a payout ratio of 55%, though past payments have been unreliable and volatile. The current yield of 4.1% is below the top Austrian payers, yet dividends are covered by cash flows at an 83.7% ratio. Trading at nearly half its estimated fair value, Andritz shows potential for capital appreciation. Recent earnings indicate a decline in sales and net income, but guidance remains optimistic with revenue projections up to €8.3 billion for 2025.
