Chongqing Brewery (SHSE:600132)

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

Overview: Chongqing Brewery Co., Ltd. is a company based in China, specializing in the production and sale of beers and non-alcoholic beverages, with a market capitalization of approximately CN¥34.27 billion.

Operations: Chongqing Brewery Co., Ltd. generates revenue primarily from its beer segment, amounting to CN¥15.10 billion.

Dividend Yield: 4%

Chongqing Brewery has shown robust growth with a 12.3% annual earnings increase over the past five years and a recent quarterly revenue jump to CNY 4.29 billion. While dividends have grown over the last decade, their sustainability is questionable due to a high payout ratio of 96.9%, indicating that dividends are not well-covered by earnings. Additionally, despite a competitive dividend yield of 3.95%, the company's dividend payments have been both volatile and unreliable, reflecting potential risks for long-term dividend investors seeking stability and consistent returns.

Jiang Zhong PharmaceuticalLtd (SHSE:600750)

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

Overview: Jiang Zhong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd focuses on the research, development, production, and sale of Chinese patent medicines and health foods, with a market capitalization of approximately CN¥16.78 billion.

Operations: Jiang Zhong Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd generates its revenue primarily through the production and sales of Chinese patent medicines and health foods.

Dividend Yield: 4.8%

Jiang Zhong Pharmaceutical offers a dividend yield of 4.83%, ranking in the top 25% of Chinese market payers, supported by a decade of stable and reliable dividend growth. However, with a payout ratio of 112.2% and cash payout ratio at 96.7%, dividends are poorly covered by both earnings and cash flows, raising concerns about sustainability despite recent earnings growth (11.5% last year). Recent financials show fluctuating revenues with CNY 1,227.4 million in Q1 2024 against CNY 1,344.89 million the previous year, though net income has risen to CNY 266.78 million from CNY242.56 million.

The firm's dividends are well-covered by earnings, with a payout ratio of 54.1%, and by cash flows, at 69.5%. Despite this, its dividend history is relatively short under 10 years and lacks stability. Recent financials indicate a dip in year-over-year quarterly revenue and net income, from CNY 2,022.66 million to CNY 1,921.64 million and CNY 385.81 million to CNY 262.01 million respectively, suggesting potential challenges ahead in maintaining its dividend growth trajectory.
