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

Operations: Alumasc Group's revenue is derived from three main segments: Water Management (£48.32 million), Building Envelope (£37.60 million), and Housebuilding Products (£14.81 million).
Dividend Yield: 3.3%
Alumasc Group recently declared a final dividend of 7.3 pence per share, reflecting its efforts to enhance shareholder returns despite a historically volatile dividend track record. While the company's dividends are well-covered by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 44.2% and 36.9% respectively, its yield remains modest compared to top UK payers.

Brooks Macdonald Group's dividend payments, though stable and growing over the past decade, are not well covered by earnings due to a high payout ratio of 194.5%. However, the cash payout ratio is more sustainable at 35.8%, indicating dividends are supported by cash flows. Despite a lower profit margin this year and trading below estimated fair value, recent board changes could impact future strategic direction and potentially influence dividend sustainability.
