Dubai Refreshment (P.J.S.C.) (DFM:DRC)

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

Overview: Dubai Refreshment (P.J.S.C.) is involved in the bottling and selling of Pepsi Cola International products across Dubai, Sharjah, and the other Northern Emirates of the UAE, with a market cap of AED2.16 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue primarily comes from the wholesale of groceries, amounting to AED807.98 million.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%

Dubai Refreshment's dividend payments are covered by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 53.2% and 71.3%, respectively, suggesting sustainability. However, the dividends have been volatile over the past decade despite some growth in payments. The current yield of 3.33% is below top-tier levels in the AE market. Profit margins have decreased significantly from last year, which may impact future dividend reliability despite a favorable price-to-earnings ratio of 16x compared to industry averages.

Dynapack International Technology (TPEX:3211)

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

Overview: Dynapack International Technology Corporation manufactures and sells lithium-ion battery packs in Taiwan, the United States, and internationally, with a market cap of NT$18.39 billion.

Operations: Dynapack International Technology Corporation's revenue from the production and sales of hammer battery packs is NT$16.13 billion.

Dividend Yield: 4.6%

Dynapack International Technology's dividend yield of 4.59% is among the top 25% in Taiwan, yet its history of volatile payments over the past decade raises concerns about stability. Despite this, dividends are well covered by earnings and cash flows with payout ratios of 42.2% and 48.6%, respectively, indicating sustainability. The company's price-to-earnings ratio of 9.3x suggests it may be undervalued compared to the broader market average of 21.5x.

Simplo Technology (TPEX:6121)

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

Overview: Simplo Technology Co., Ltd. produces and sells battery packs worldwide, with a market cap of NT$69.55 billion.

Operations: Simplo Technology Co., Ltd. generates revenue from its Batteries/Battery Systems segment, which amounts to NT$82.29 billion.

Dividend Yield: 5.8%

Simplo Technology's dividend yield of 5.77% ranks in the top 25% in Taiwan, but its history of volatile and unreliable payments over the past decade may concern investors. Although dividends are well covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 39.8%, the high cash payout ratio of 175.5% indicates unsustainable cash flow coverage. Trading at 47% below estimated fair value suggests potential undervaluation, yet recent declines in sales and net income could impact future performance.
