Let's uncover some gems from our specialized screener.
Bilia
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Bilia AB (publ) is a full-service supplier for car ownership operating in Sweden, Norway, Luxembourg, and Belgium, with a market capitalization of SEK 13.57 billion.
Operations: Bilia AB generates its revenue primarily through car sales and services, with SEK 19.28 billion from Car - Sweden, SEK 7.16 billion from Car - Norway, SEK 3.61 billion from Car - Western Europe, and additional service revenues of SEK 6.16 billion in Sweden, SEK 2.16 billion in Norway, and SEK 0.65 billion in Western Europe.
Dividend Yield: 4.5%
Bilia's recent performance and dividend history present a nuanced picture for investors. Currently trading at 59.2% below estimated fair value, the company offers a seemingly attractive entry point. However, its profit margins have decreased from last year (3.5% to 2.2%), and its dividend payments, although in the top 25% of Swedish market payers at 4.47%, have been inconsistent over the past decade with significant annual fluctuations exceeding 20%. Recent financials reflect a downturn with Q1 sales dropping to SEK 9,371 million from SEK 9,871 million year-over-year and net income falling to SEK 156 million from SEK 251 million. Moreover, despite an earnings forecast growth of approximately 15.42% per annum, Bilia's dividends are poorly covered by cash flow (cash payout ratio at an unsustainable high of approximately five times), indicating potential challenges in maintaining current dividend levels without adjustments in operations or financial strategies.
Loomis
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Loomis AB operates in providing comprehensive solutions for the handling, storage, recycling, and distribution of cash and other valuables, with a market capitalization of approximately SEK 19.59 billion.
Operations: Loomis AB generates its revenue primarily through two segments: Europe and Latin America, which brought in SEK 13.86 billion, and the United States of America, contributing SEK 15.17 billion.
Dividend Yield: 4.5%
Loomis AB, despite a recent dividend increase to SEK 12.50 per share, exhibits volatility in its dividend history with inconsistent growth over the past decade. The company's dividends are supported by a reasonable payout ratio of 61.2% and cash flow coverage at 32.6%. However, Loomis faces challenges from a legal setback in Denmark potentially impacting financial stability. Recently, Loomis initiated a share repurchase program valued up to SEK 200 million, aiming to adjust its capital structure and support acquisitions, reflecting proactive financial management amid uncertainties.

Recently, AB Traction reported a decrease in net income to SEK 128.2 million from SEK 211 million year-over-year as of the first quarter ending March 31, 2024.
