James Halstead (AIM:JHD)

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

Overview: James Halstead plc manufactures and supplies flooring products for both commercial and domestic uses across the United Kingdom, Europe, Scandinavia, Australasia, Asia, and other international markets with a market cap of £616.84 million.

Operations: The company's revenue is derived entirely from the manufacture and distribution of flooring products, totaling £268.52 million.

Dividend Yield: 5.7%

James Halstead's dividend payments have consistently grown over the past decade with minimal volatility, placing its yield in the top 25% of UK dividend payers. However, a high cash payout ratio of 95% indicates dividends are not well covered by free cash flows, despite being covered by earnings at an 86% payout ratio. Recent guidance suggests sales and profit will be slightly below last year but within market expectations, supported by a strong ungeared balance sheet.

Despite a history of volatility, dividends have increased over the past decade, including a recent 2% rise in interim dividends for 2025 to 5 pence per share.

Dividend Yield: 7.4%

SThree's dividend yield of 7.42% ranks in the top 25% of UK payers, yet its dividends have been volatile and unreliable over the past decade. The company's high cash payout ratio (146.7%) indicates dividends are not well covered by free cash flows, though earnings provide reasonable coverage with a 65.1% payout ratio. Despite trading below fair value by 16.2%, recent earnings show decreased sales and net income compared to last year, affecting dividend sustainability prospects.
