Hargreaves Services (AIM:HSP)

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

Overview: Hargreaves Services Plc is a company that offers environmental and industrial services across the United Kingdom, Southeast Asia, and South Africa, with a market capitalization of £175.19 million.

Operations: Hargreaves Services Plc generates its revenue primarily through Services and Hargreaves Land segments, amounting to £205.29 million and £2.58 million, respectively.

Dividend Yield: 6.7%

Hargreaves Services Plc's recent financials show a decline in net income to GBP 1.71 million from GBP 16.96 million year-over-year, with earnings per share also decreasing. Despite this, the company has significantly increased its interim dividend to 18 pence, demonstrating confidence in its cash generation and future cash returns. This move aligns with a broader analysis indicating Hargreaves Services' dividends are among the top quartile in the UK market by yield but notes past volatility and an unreliable growth pattern over ten years. The dividend coverage is deemed sustainable, supported by both earnings and cash flows, amidst concerns over profit margins and one-off financial impacts.

Kaspi.kz (LSE:KSPI)

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

Overview: Joint Stock Company Kaspi.kz operates in the Republic of Kazakhstan, offering payments, marketplace, and fintech solutions to consumers and merchants, with a market capitalization of approximately $22.83 billion.

Operations: Kaspi.kz generates revenue through its fintech (₸1.03 billion), payments (₸478.68 million), and marketplace (₸448.22 million) segments in Kazakhstan's dynamic market.

Dividend Yield: 6.3%

Kaspi.kz, despite its recent delisting from the London Stock Exchange on 25 March 2024 due to low trading volumes and a shift towards Nasdaq, continues to demonstrate strong financial performance with a notable year-over-year earnings growth of 43.8% for the year ended December 31, 2023. The company's dividend yield of 6.27% ranks in the top quartile within the UK market, supported by a payout ratio of 72.2% and cash payout ratio of 61%, indicating sustainability from both earnings and cash flows perspectives. However, it's worth noting Kaspi.kz has had an unstable dividend track record over its short four-year dividend-paying history, marked by volatility in payments.

Severfield (LSE:SFR)

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

Overview: Severfield plc operates in the structural steelwork industry, focusing on design, manufacturing, fabrication, construction, and erection of steelwork activities across the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Europe, and India, with a market capitalization of approximately £174.58 million.

Operations: Severfield plc generates its revenue primarily through core construction operations, amounting to £471.97 million.

Dividend Yield: 6.2%

Severfield showcases a promising outlook for dividend investors, with earnings expected to grow by 7.46% annually. Its dividend yield of 6.21% places it in the top 25% of UK dividend payers, supported by a sustainable payout ratio of 50.6% and an even more reassuring cash payout ratio of 18.5%. Despite this, Severfield's history as a dividend payer spans just under a decade with some instability noted in its track record, bringing some caution to its otherwise attractive profile for those seeking income through dividends.
