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

Dividend Yield: 9.5%

C&D International Investment Group's dividend yield of 9.55% ranks in the top 25% of Hong Kong market payers, yet its sustainability is questionable due to a lack of free cash flows and unreliable past payments. Recent sales figures show a significant decline, with RMB 66.06 billion in contracted sales down year-on-year by 34.8%. Furthermore, profit margins have decreased from last year and debt coverage by operating cash flow remains inadequate.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%

JFE Systems' dividends are well-supported by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 37.3% and 26.4%, respectively, indicating sustainability.

The stock trades at a significant discount to estimated fair value, offering potential upside beyond dividends.
