Acomo

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

Overview: Acomo N.V. is a company that sources, trades, processes, packages, and distributes both conventional and organic food ingredients for the food and beverage industry across Europe, North America, and other international markets, with a market capitalization of approximately €519.50 million.

Operations: Acomo N.V. generates its revenue primarily through five segments: Tea (€120.62 million), Edible Seeds (€257.29 million), Food Solutions (€24.07 million), Spices and Nuts (€429.96 million), and Organic Ingredients (€436.38 million).

Dividend Yield: 6.6%

ACOMO's dividend yield of 6.56% ranks in the top 25% in the Dutch market, reflecting its appeal to income-focused investors. Despite trading at 52.9% below its estimated fair value, which suggests potential undervaluation, investors should be cautious due to its unstable and unreliable dividend history over the past decade, including significant annual drops. However, both earnings (payout ratio: 85.7%) and cash flows (cash payout ratio: 26.1%) currently cover dividend payments adequately, though high debt levels persist as a financial concern.
