Henan Shenhuo Coal Industry and Electricity Power (SZSE:000933)

Overview: Henan Shenhuo Coal Industry and Electricity Power Co., Ltd. is a China-based company primarily engaged in coal mining and electricity production, with a market capitalization of approximately CN¥47.65 billion.

Operations: Henan Shenhuo Coal Industry and Electricity Power Co., Ltd. generates its revenue primarily through coal mining and electricity production activities.

Dividend Yield: 3.8%

Henan Shenhuo Coal Industry and Electricity Power has exhibited a fluctuating dividend history, with recent decreases announced on May 9, 2024. Despite this instability, the dividends are well-supported by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 32.7% and 19.7% respectively. Trading at 61.8% below estimated fair value suggests potential undervaluation. However, recent financials indicate a downturn in revenue and net income in Q1 2024 compared to the previous year, which could impact future dividend reliability.
