DREAMINSIGHT Co,.Ltd.'s (KOSDAQ:362990) investors are due to receive a payment of ₩20.00 per share on 20th of April. This payment means the dividend yield will be 1.2%, which is below the average for the industry.
DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd's Projected Earnings Seem Likely To Cover Future Distributions
Even a low dividend yield can be attractive if it is sustained for years on end. DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd is quite easily earning enough to cover the dividend, however it is being let down by weak cash flows. We think that cash flows should take priority over earnings, so this is definitely a worry for the dividend going forward.
Looking forward, EPS could fall by 21.7% if the company can't turn things around from the last few years. Assuming the dividend continues along recent trends, we believe the payout ratio could be 31%, which we are pretty comfortable with and we think is feasible on an earnings basis.

DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd Doesn't Have A Long Payment History
Without a track record of dividend payments, we can't make a judgement on how stable it has been. This doesn't mean that the company can't pay a good dividend, but just that we want to wait until it can prove itself.
Dividend Growth Potential Is Shaky
The company's investors will be pleased to have been receiving dividend income for some time. However, initial appearances might be deceiving. DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd's EPS has fallen by approximately 22% per year during the past five years. Such rapid declines definitely have the potential to constrain dividend payments if the trend continues into the future.
DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd's Dividend Doesn't Look Sustainable
Overall, we don't think this company makes a great dividend stock, even though the dividend wasn't cut this year. While DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd is earning enough to cover the payments, the cash flows are lacking. We don't think DREAMINSIGHT Co.Ltd is a great stock to add to your portfolio if income is your focus.
It's important to note that companies having a consistent dividend policy will generate greater investor confidence than those having an erratic one. However, there are other things to consider for investors when analysing stock performance.
