China BlueChemical (SEHK:3983)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: China BlueChemical Ltd., with a market cap of HK$10.56 billion, is involved in processing natural gas and developing, producing, and selling chemical fertilizers and chemical products both in China and internationally.
Operations: China BlueChemical Ltd.'s revenue segments are comprised of CN¥3.71 billion from Urea, CN¥3.09 billion from Methanol, CN¥2.01 billion from Acrylonitrile, and CN¥2.69 billion from Phosphorus and Compound Fertiliser.
Dividend Yield: 5.7%
China BlueChemical's dividend payments, while covered by earnings and cash flows, have been volatile over the past decade. A recent dividend decrease to RMB 0.1208 per share reflects this instability. Despite a reasonable payout ratio of 52%, profit margins have declined from 18.3% to 9%. The company's price-to-earnings ratio is favorable at 9x compared to the Hong Kong market average of 12x, but its yield remains below top-tier levels in the region.

- Our comprehensive valuation report raises the possibility that China BlueChemical is priced higher than what may be justified by its financials.
Argosy Research (TPEX:3217)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Argosy Research Inc. manufactures and sells electronic components and connectors across Asia, the United States, and internationally, with a market cap of NT$15.34 billion.
Operations: Argosy Research Inc.'s revenue from its manufacturing and sales of electronic component products is NT$3.71 billion.
Dividend Yield: 3.8%
Argosy Research's dividend payments have been unreliable over the past decade, with volatility noted despite recent increases to TWD 8.81 per share. The company's dividends are covered by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 62.3% and 56.8%, respectively. A recent share buyback completed for TWD 19.51 million may positively impact future distributions due to a reduced number of outstanding shares, though the dividend yield remains below top-tier levels in Taiwan's market.

Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group (TSE:8306)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. is a bank holding company involved in various financial services across Japan, the United States, Europe, Asia/Oceania, and globally with a market cap of ¥24.69 trillion.
Operations: Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group generates revenue primarily from its Customer Business segments, including Retail & Digital Business Group (¥944.60 billion), Japanese Corporate & Investment Banking (¥1.03 trillion), Global Commercial Banking Business Headquarters (¥969.30 billion), Global Corporate & Investment Banking Business Group (¥913 billion), and Commercial Banking & Wealth Management Business Group (¥726.60 billion), along with the Asset Management & Investor Services Business Group contributing ¥534.20 billion, while the Global Markets Business Group reported a negative revenue of ¥330.60 million.
Dividend Yield: 3.2%
Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group offers a stable dividend history, with payments increasing over the past decade and a current yield of 3.25%, though this is below Japan's top-tier payers. The payout ratio stands at 58.9%, indicating dividends are covered by earnings. Recent strategic alliances, such as with Curiosity Lab, may enhance growth prospects but have no immediate impact on dividends. A share buyback worth ¥169 billion could improve shareholder value despite recent dividend guidance suggesting a decrease to ¥35 per share for fiscal year 2026.
