Bendigo and Adelaide Bank (ASX:BEN)

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

Overview: Bendigo and Adelaide Bank Limited provides banking and financial services to retail customers and small to medium-sized businesses in Australia, with a market cap of A$7.11 billion.

Operations: Bendigo and Adelaide Bank's revenue is primarily derived from its Consumer segment, which accounts for A$1.12 billion, followed by the Business & Agribusiness segment at A$761.10 million, and the Corporate segment contributing A$67.50 million.

Dividend Yield: 5%

Bendigo and Adelaide Bank recently declared a fully franked full-year dividend of A$0.63 per share, up from A$0.61 the previous year, indicating growth in payouts despite a historically volatile dividend record. The bank's payout ratio is 65.4%, suggesting dividends are currently covered by earnings, with forecasts maintaining coverage in three years at 72.9%. However, its dividend yield of 5.02% lags behind top Australian payers, and past earnings have been affected by large one-off items.

Nine Entertainment Holdings (ASX:NEC)

Operations: Nine Entertainment Co. Holdings Limited generates revenue from several segments, including Stan (A$447.73 million), Publishing (A$558.63 million), Broadcasting (A$1.23 billion), and Domain Group (A$395.73 million).

Dividend Yield: 7.3%

Nine Entertainment Holdings' dividend yield of 7.3% ranks in the top 25% of Australian payers, but its sustainability is questionable due to a high payout ratio of 123.8%, indicating dividends are not well covered by earnings. Despite stable cash flow coverage at an 86% cash payout ratio, past dividends have been volatile with recent reductions from A$0.05 to A$0.045 per share. Ongoing M&A discussions may impact future dividend stability and strategic direction.
