New minor risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings. Payout ratio: 200% Dividend yield: 1.8% This is considered a minor risk.

For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Minor Risks High level of debt (40% net debt to equity). Dividend is not well covered by earnings (200% payout ratio).
