Acomo (ENXTAM:ACOMO)

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

Overview: Acomo N.V. operates in the sourcing, trading, processing, packaging, and distribution of conventional and organic food ingredients for the food and beverage industry across Europe, North America, and other international markets, with a market capitalization of approximately €517.72 million.

Operations: Acomo N.V.'s revenue is generated from several segments including Tea (€120.62 million), Edible Seeds (€257.29 million), Food Solutions (€24.07 million), Spices and Nuts (€429.96 million), and Organic Ingredients (€436.38 million).

Dividend Yield: 6.6%

ACOMO's dividend yield of 6.58% ranks well in the Dutch market, but its dividend history shows volatility and unreliability over the past decade. Despite this, dividends are sustainably covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 85.7% and strongly supported by cash flows at a low cash payout ratio of 26.1%. However, concerns about ACOMO's high debt levels might caution dividend-focused investors, especially considering its unstable track record in maintaining consistent payouts.

Dividend Yield: 4.4%

Koninklijke Heijmans has shown a volatile dividend history over the past decade, with fluctuations in payments and a recent 1:1.1236 stock split announced for May 7, 2024. Despite this instability, the dividends are reasonably covered by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 37.1% and 59% respectively. Earnings have grown at 19.4% annually over the last five years and are expected to increase by about 10.21% per year moving forward.

The current payout is supported by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 78.4% and 59.6% respectively, suggesting reasonable coverage but highlighting potential concerns about sustainability given its high level of debt and unstable track record. Recent strategic moves include forming TowerCo with ABP to optimize infrastructure assets, potentially enhancing long-term shareholder value without affecting employment levels; this includes an upfront payment of €120 million to NOVEC/OTC's shareholders and expected impacts on KPN’s EBITDA AL by approximately €30 million for 2024.
