Ai Holdings (TSE:3076)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★★
Overview: Ai Holdings Corporation specializes in providing security and peripheral computer equipment, measuring devices, and card and other office equipment, with a market capitalization of approximately ¥118.40 billion.
Operations: Ai Holdings Corporation generates its revenue primarily from the sale of security systems, peripheral computer hardware, measurement instruments, and office machinery.
Dividend Yield: 3.6%
Ai Holdings maintains a steady dividend yield of 3.6%, positioned in the top 25% of Japanese dividend payers. The company's dividends are reliably backed by earnings with a low payout ratio of 15.6% and a cash payout ratio of 75.6%, indicating sound coverage from both profits and cash flows. Despite this robust dividend framework, earnings are projected to decline by an average of 21.1% annually over the next three years, suggesting potential challenges ahead in maintaining its dividend growth, which has been consistent over the past decade. Recent corporate guidance forecasts a significant increase in net sales and profits for FY ending June 2024, with expected net sales reaching JPY 53 billion and profit attributable to owners at JPY 15.60 billion.

Operations: Chori Co., Ltd. generates revenue primarily from its textiles and chemicals businesses, contributing ¥148.69 billion and ¥158.88 billion respectively, with a smaller contribution of ¥1.24 billion from its machinery business.
Dividend Yield: 3.2%
Chori Co., Ltd. shows a mixed dividend profile with a 25.1% earnings payout ratio and a 40.9% cash flow payout ratio, suggesting dividends are well covered. However, its dividend yield of 3.19% is below the top quartile of Japanese dividend stocks at 3.55%. Despite a decade of increasing dividends, payments have been unstable and unreliable over the same period, reflecting volatility in its financial commitments to shareholders. Recent executive changes could signal strategic shifts impacting future payouts.
