Aecon Group (TSX:ARE)

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

Overview: Aecon Group Inc. is a construction and infrastructure development company serving private and public sector clients in Canada, the United States, and internationally, with a market cap of CA$1.42 billion.

Operations: Aecon Group Inc.'s revenue is primarily derived from its Construction segment, which generated CA$4.04 billion, while its Concessions segment contributed CA$34.47 million.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%

Aecon Group's dividend reliability is underpinned by a stable 10-year growth history, despite recent financial challenges including a net loss of C$123.89 million in Q2 2024. The dividend yield of 3.33% is modest compared to top Canadian payers, and while dividends are well-covered by cash flows with a low cash payout ratio, the high earnings payout ratio suggests potential sustainability concerns. Recent contracts like the Winnipeg and Surrey Langley projects bolster future revenue prospects.
