Check out our latest analysis for Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad
Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad's Dividend Is Well Covered By Earnings
If it is predictable over a long period, even low dividend yields can be attractive. Based on the last payment, Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad was quite comfortably earning enough to cover the dividend. This indicates that a lot of the earnings are being reinvested into the business, with the aim of fueling growth.
Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 41.6%. If the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate the payout ratio will be 23%, which is in the range that makes us comfortable with the sustainability of the dividend.
Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad's Dividend Has Lacked Consistency
Even in its short history, we have seen the dividend cut. Since 2020, the dividend has gone from MYR0.0195 total annually to MYR0.048. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 25% over that duration. Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad has grown distributions at a rapid rate despite cutting the dividend at least once in the past. Companies that cut once often cut again, so we would be cautious about buying this stock solely for the dividend income.
The Dividend Looks Likely To Grow
Growing earnings per share could be a mitigating factor when considering the past fluctuations in the dividend. Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad has seen EPS rising for the last five years, at 13% per annum. Since earnings per share is growing at an acceptable rate, and the payout policy is balanced, we think the company is positioning itself well to grow earnings and dividends in the future.
Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad Looks Like A Great Dividend Stock
Overall, we like to see the dividend staying consistent, and we think Mr D.I.Y. Group (M) Berhad might even raise payments in the future. The company is easily earning enough to cover its dividend payments and it is great to see that these earnings are being translated into cash flow. Taking this all into consideration, this looks like it could be a good dividend opportunity.
