How I analyze a dividend stock

When researching a dividend stock, I always follow the following screening criteria:

ADVERTISEMENT
  • Does it pay an annual yield higher than 75% of dividend payers?

  • Does it consistently pay out dividends without missing a payment of significantly cutting payout?

  • Has it increased its dividend per share amount over the past?

  • Is its earnings sufficient to payout dividend at the current rate?

  • Will it have the ability to keep paying its dividends going forward?

How does Shenguan Holdings (Group) fare?

The current trailing twelve-month payout ratio for the stock is 71%, which means that the dividend is covered by earnings. Furthermore, analysts have not forecasted a dividends per share for the future, which makes it hard to determine the yield shareholders should expect, and whether the current payout is sustainable, moving forward.

If you want to dive deeper into the sustainability of a certain payout ratio, you may wish to consider the cash flow of the business. A business with strong cash flow can sustain a higher divided payout ratio than a company with weak cash flow.

If there's one type of stock you want to be reliable, it's dividend stocks and their stable income-generating ability. The reality is that it is too early to consider Shenguan Holdings (Group) as a dividend investment. It has only been consistently paying dividends for 9 years, however, standard practice for reliable payers is to look for a 10-year minimum track record.

Relative to peers, Shenguan Holdings (Group) has a yield of 8.7%, which is high for Food stocks.

Next Steps:

If Shenguan Holdings (Group) is in your portfolio for cash-generating reasons, there may be better alternatives out there. But if you are not exclusively a dividend investor, the stock could still be an interesting investment opportunity. Given that this is purely a dividend analysis, I recommend taking sufficient time to understand its core business and determine whether the company and its investment properties suit your overall goals.
