Operations: SAF-Holland SE generates revenue through three primary geographical segments: €951.75 million from Europe, the Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), €898.79 million from the Americas, and €280.64 million from Asia/Pacific including China and India.

Dividend Yield: 4.8%

SAF-Holland SE, a German company, reported increased earnings with a net income of €26.23 million in Q1 2024, up from €19.56 million the previous year. Despite this growth and a top-tier dividend yield of 4.82%, concerns linger due to its high level of debt and an unstable dividend track record over the past decade.

Südzucker AG, a notable player in the German market, has demonstrated solid financial performance with a significant increase in sales to €10.29 billion and net income rising to €589 million for FY 2024. Despite this growth, earnings are expected to decline over the next three years. The company maintains a low payout ratio at 33%, ensuring dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows.

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

Overview: Technotrans SE is a global technology and services company with a market capitalization of approximately €138.15 million.

Operations: Technotrans SE generates its revenue through a diverse range of technology and services sectors globally.

Dividend Yield: 3.1%

Its dividend yield of 3.1% is below the top quartile in the German market, and its dividend history shows volatility and inconsistency over the past decade.

Recent financials indicate a significant revenue drop to €56.04 million in Q1 2024 from €68.31 million year-over-year, alongside a decrease in net income from €2.2 million to €0.059 million.
