Rogers Sugar (TSX:RSI)

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

Dividend Yield: 6.4%

Rogers Sugar's dividend yield of 6.39% ranks in the top 25% among Canadian dividend payers, yet its sustainability is questionable as dividends are not covered by free cash flows. Despite stable dividends over the past decade, there has been no growth in payments, and recent shareholder dilution raises concerns. The company reported declining net income for Q3 2024 compared to the previous year, although it remains profitable with a payout ratio of 86%.
