Bahnhof (OM:BAHN B)

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

Overview: Bahnhof AB (publ) operates in the Internet and telecommunications sector across Sweden and Europe, with a market cap of SEK5.33 billion.

Operations: Bahnhof AB (publ) generates revenue primarily from its Retail Market segment, which accounts for SEK1.30 billion, and its Corporate Market segment, excluding Typhoon, which contributes SEK606.24 million.

Dividend Yield: 4%

Bahnhof AB's dividend payments have been stable and growing over the past 10 years, but their current payout ratio of 97.5% indicates dividends are not well covered by earnings. Despite a reliable history, the dividend yield of 4.04% is slightly below market top tiers. Recent earnings showed growth with Q1 revenue at SEK 491.38 million and net income at SEK 56.17 million, supporting cash flow coverage for dividends despite high payout ratios from earnings.
