Dividends are usually paid out of company profits, so if a company pays out more than it earned then its dividend is usually at greater risk of being cut. Fortunately Mirae Asset Venture Investment's payout ratio is modest, at just 44% of profit.

When a company paid out less in dividends than it earned in profit, this generally suggests its dividend is affordable. The lower the % of its profit that it pays out, the greater the margin of safety for the dividend if the business enters a downturn.

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?

Businesses with shrinking earnings are tricky from a dividend perspective. If earnings decline and the company is forced to cut its dividend, investors could watch the value of their investment go up in smoke. From this viewpoint, it's unfortunate that earnings per share have declined 7.9% over the last year.

Unfortunately Mirae Asset Venture Investment has only been paying a dividend for a year or so, so there's not much of a history to draw insight from.

To Sum It Up

Should investors buy Mirae Asset Venture Investment for the upcoming dividend? Mirae Asset Venture Investment's earnings per share are down sharply over the last year, although we note that it is paying out a low fraction of its earnings. Ordinarily we wouldn't be too concerned about a one-year decline, but the 163% drop in earnings per share is enough to make us think twice. It doesn't appear an outstanding opportunity, but could be worth a closer look.
