However, its dividends have shown volatility over this period, with notable fluctuations exceeding 20% annually.

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

Overview: Xinhua Winshare Publishing and Media Co., Ltd. operates in publishing and distribution across the People's Republic of China, with a market capitalization of approximately HK$15.81 billion.

Operations: Xinhua Winshare Publishing and Media Co., Ltd. generates its revenue primarily from publishing and distribution activities within the People's Republic of China.

Dividend Yield: 4.5%

Xinhua Winshare Publishing and Media has approved a final dividend of RMB 0.40 per share for 2023, reflecting a commitment to shareholder returns despite its historically volatile dividend track record. The company's dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 30.9% and 23.1% respectively, suggesting sustainability from a financial perspective. However, the relatively low yield compared to top Hong Kong dividend payers indicates limited attractiveness for yield-focused investors. Recent management changes and auditor switch to KPMG may influence future governance and financial transparency.
