New major risk - Dividend sustainability The dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows. Payout ratio: 127% Cash payout ratio: 276% Dividend yield: 5.2% This is considered a major risk.

For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Dividend is not well covered by earnings and cash flows.
