Dividend Yield: 3.3%

Overview: Macnica Galaxy Inc. operates as a distributor of IC products and services in Taiwan and China, with a market capitalization of approximately NT$6.01 billion.

Operations: Macnica Galaxy Inc. generates its revenue primarily from the distribution of IC products and services across Taiwan and China.

Dividend Yield: 3.2%

Macnica Galaxy's dividend sustainability is questionable due to a history of volatility and unreliable payouts over the last decade. Although its payout ratio of 55.7% and cash payout ratio of 5.8% suggest that dividends are well-covered by both earnings and cash flows, the overall dividend yield of 3.17% remains below the TW market's top quartile at 4.33%. Recent financials show a rebound in net income to TWD 71.06 million from TWD 46.87 million year-over-year, which could provide some support for future dividends despite past inconsistencies.

MediaTek (TWSE:2454)

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

Overview: MediaTek Inc. is a company based in Taiwan that specializes in the research, development, production, and marketing of multimedia integrated circuits (ICs) across Asia and globally, with a market capitalization of approximately NT$2.05 trillion.

Operations: MediaTek Inc. generates NT$471.25 billion primarily from the design and sale of multimedia and mobile phone chips.

Dividend Yield: 4.6%

MediaTek's recent performance indicates challenges in dividend sustainability. Despite a notable increase in Q1 2024 earnings, with net income rising to TWD 31.54 billion from TWD 16.87 billion year-over-year, the company's high payout ratio of 95.3% raises concerns about its ability to maintain dividends without impacting operational funds. Additionally, MediaTek's dividend yield of 4.64% ranks well within the top quartile of TW market payers but is undermined by its unreliable and volatile dividend history over the past decade. The launch of Dimensity 9300+ could bolster future performance, yet immediate impacts on dividends are uncertain given current financial pressures and sales volatility noted in April’s reduced net sales figures.
