Despite this, its dividends are well-supported by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 76.2% and 63.3% respectively. The company's valuation indicates a trading price 42.6% under our fair value estimate, suggesting potential upside. However, its dividend history shows instability over the past decade, reflecting some risk in payment consistency despite recent revenue growth to €307.5 million in 2023 from €300.4 million the previous year.
