5 checks you should do on a dividend stock
Whenever I am looking at a potential dividend stock investment, I always check these five metrics:
- Is their annual yield among the top 25% of dividend payers?
- Has its dividend been stable over the past (i.e. no missed payments or significant payout cuts)?
- Has it increased its dividend per share amount over the past?
- Is its earnings sufficient to payout dividend at the current rate?
- Will the company be able to keep paying dividend based on the future earnings growth?

How well does Gielda Papierów Wartosciowych w Warszawie fit our criteria?
The current trailing twelve-month payout ratio for the stock is 58.16%, which means that the dividend is covered by earnings. In the near future, analysts are predicting a payout ratio of 54.26%, leading to a dividend yield of around 5.26%. Furthermore, EPS should increase to PLN3.98.
If dividend is a key criteria in your investment consideration, then you need to make sure the dividend stock you're eyeing out is reliable in its payments. The reality is that it is too early to consider Gielda Papierów Wartosciowych w Warszawie as a dividend investment.
