CaixaBank (BME:CABK)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: CaixaBank, S.A. is a financial institution offering a range of banking products and services in Spain and internationally, with a market cap of €53.92 billion.
Operations: CaixaBank's revenue segments include the Portuguese Investment Bank (BPI) contributing €1.20 billion.
Dividend Yield: 7.5%
CaixaBank's dividend yield is among the top 25% in Spain, supported by a payout ratio of 57.3%, indicating current coverage by earnings. However, its dividend history has been unreliable and volatile over the past decade. Recent earnings growth and a low allowance for bad loans at 70% provide some stability, though high non-performing loans at 2.5% could pose risks. Additionally, ongoing M&A discussions regarding Novo Banco might impact future financial strategies and dividend policies.
