China Mengniu Dairy (SEHK:2319)

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

Overview: China Mengniu Dairy Company Limited operates as an investment holding company that manufactures and distributes dairy products under the MENGNIU brand, both domestically in the People’s Republic of China and internationally, with a market capitalization of approximately HK$56.90 billion.

Operations: China Mengniu Dairy Company Limited generates revenue primarily through its Liquid Milk Business at CN¥83.20 billion, followed by the Ice Cream Business at CN¥6.08 billion, Cheese Business at CN¥4.38 billion, and Milk Powder Business at CN¥3.83 billion.

Dividend Yield: 3.6%

China Mengniu Dairy recently approved a final cash dividend of RMB 0.489 per share, indicating a commitment to returning value to shareholders. However, the company's dividend yield at 3.64% is relatively low compared to the top Hong Kong dividend payers at 7.9%. While dividends are supported by earnings and cash flows with payout ratios of 40.1% and 44.8% respectively, the historical volatility in payments suggests some risk for those seeking stable income streams. Additionally, recent executive changes and updates to company bylaws reflect ongoing corporate governance adjustments which could impact future performance and strategy execution.
