ABN AMRO Bank (ENXTAM:ABN)

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

Overview: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. offers a range of banking products and financial services to retail, private, and business clients both in the Netherlands and globally, with a market capitalization of approximately €12.74 billion.

Operations: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. generates revenue primarily through three segments: Corporate Banking (€3.50 billion), Wealth Management (€1.59 billion), and Personal & Business Banking (€4.07 billion).

Dividend Yield: 9.9%

ABN AMRO Bank's dividend sustainability is currently supported by a payout ratio of 47.9%, with expectations to maintain similar coverage in three years. Despite this, the bank's dividends have shown volatility over the past eight years, indicating some level of unpredictability in its payments. Recent strategic expansions into Germany through acquisitions, such as Hauck Aufhaeuser Lampe for €672 million and potential acquisition of HSBC's German private bank, are set to increase assets under management significantly, which could impact future financial stability and dividend policies.

Koninklijke KPN (ENXTAM:KPN)

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

Overview: Koninklijke KPN N.V. operates as a telecommunications and IT service provider in the Netherlands, with a market capitalization of approximately €13.95 billion.

Operations: Koninklijke KPN N.V. generates revenue through three primary segments: Business (€1.84 billion), Consumer (€2.93 billion), and Wholesale (€0.70 billion).

Dividend Yield: 4.2%

Koninklijke KPN's recent strategic moves, including a €498.41 million fixed-income offering and the creation of TowerCo with Dutch pension fund ABP, underscore its efforts to enhance infrastructure and shareholder value. Despite these initiatives, KPN's dividend yield of 4.23% trails behind top Dutch dividend payers. The company maintains a payout ratio of 78.4%, supported by earnings and cash flows (cash payout ratio: 59.6%), yet its dividend history shows instability over the past decade, reflecting some risk in consistency of returns to shareholders.

Signify (ENXTAM:LIGHT)

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

Overview: Signify N.V. operates globally, offering a range of lighting products, systems, and services across Europe, the Americas, and other regions, with a market capitalization of approximately €2.92 billion.

Operations: Signify N.V. generates revenue from its conventional segment, totaling €0.56 billion.

Dividend Yield: 6.7%

Signify's recent share buyback, completed for €11.9 million, aligns with its strategy to manage share dilution from employee incentive plans. Despite a robust dividend yield of 6.7%, among the top 25% in the Dutch market, Signify's dividend history is marked by volatility over its 7-year payout period. Financially, Q1 sales dropped to €1.47 billion from €1.68 billion year-on-year, but net income improved to €44 million from €25 million, reflecting some resilience amidst challenges.
