Takeuchi Mfg. offers a mixed dividend profile. Despite its dividends being well-covered by earnings with a 24% payout ratio, the high cash payout ratio of 363.2% raises concerns about sustainability from cash flows.

Bayerische Motoren Werke (XTRA:BMW)

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

Overview: Bayerische Motoren Werke Aktiengesellschaft develops, manufactures, and sells automobiles, motorcycles, and related spare parts and accessories globally with a market cap of €49.20 billion.

Operations: Bayerische Motoren Werke's revenue is primarily derived from its Automotive segment at €128.15 billion, complemented by its Financial Services generating €38.10 billion, and the Motorcycles segment contributing €3.21 billion.

Dividend Yield: 7.6%

Bayerische Motoren Werke's dividend yield of 7.6% ranks it among the top 25% in Germany, yet its sustainability is questionable as dividends are not covered by free cash flows or earnings. Despite a low payout ratio of 36%, dividend reliability has been compromised due to volatility over the past decade. The stock trades below estimated fair value, yet recent earnings declines may impact future payouts, underscoring potential risks for income-focused investors.
