Azimut Holding (BIT:AZM)

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

Overview: Azimut Holding S.p.A. operates in the asset management sector and has a market capitalization of €4.37 billion.

Operations: Azimut Holding S.p.A. generates its revenue primarily from the asset management segment, amounting to €1.43 billion.

Dividend Yield: 5.7%

Azimut Holding's dividend yield is among the top 25% in Italy, yet its payments have been volatile over the past decade. The dividend is not well covered by free cash flow, and high non-cash earnings raise sustainability concerns. Despite trading below estimated fair value and offering good relative value compared to peers, recent financials show a decline in net income. Leadership changes in Asia may impact future growth prospects for Azimut's fund business.
