Dividend Yield: 6.7%

Dynamic Medical Technologies offers a compelling dividend yield of 6.71%, placing it in the top 25% of TW market payers.

Dividend Yield: 4.3%

Seibu Electric & Machinery offers a dividend yield of 4.29%, ranking in the top 25% of Japanese market payers. Despite stable and growing dividends over the past decade, sustainability is questionable since payouts are not covered by free cash flows or earnings.
