Nippon Soda (TSE:4041)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Nippon Soda Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries are involved in the development, production, processing, importation, marketing, sales, and export of chemicals and agrochemicals both in Japan and internationally with a market cap of ¥158.47 billion.
Operations: Nippon Soda Co., Ltd.'s revenue is primarily derived from its Chemicals Business at ¥50.26 billion, Trading Company Business at ¥51.54 billion, Agriculture Chemicals Business at ¥49.86 billion, Engineering at ¥21.44 million, and Eco Solution at ¥9.71 million.
Dividend Yield: 4.2%
Nippon Soda's dividend payments, though offering a yield of 4.17%, are not well covered by cash flows, with a high cash payout ratio of 407.8%. Despite a relatively low payout ratio of 43% indicating coverage by earnings, the dividends have been volatile over the past decade. Recent strategic alliances to enter OLED displays and revised earnings guidance suggest potential growth avenues but don't directly address dividend sustainability concerns.

Sankyo TateyamaInc (TSE:5932)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Sankyo Tateyama, Inc. develops, manufactures, and sells building, housing, and exterior construction materials in Japan with a market cap of ¥189.30 billion.
Operations: Sankyo Tateyama, Inc.'s revenue is derived from its Material Business at ¥94.19 billion, International Business at ¥76.67 billion, Commercial Facilities Business at ¥43.64 billion, and Construction Materials segment at ¥185.18 billion.
Dividend Yield: 4.1%
Sankyo Tateyama's dividend yield of 4.14% ranks in the top 25% of JP market payers but isn't covered by earnings, as the company is unprofitable. However, its cash payout ratio of 48.7% indicates coverage by cash flows. The dividends have increased over the past decade but remain volatile and unreliable, with debt not well covered by operating cash flow. Trading at a significant discount to its estimated fair value could suggest potential investment appeal despite these concerns.
