Despite recent earnings growth of 22.5% annually over five years, a high payout ratio of 87.3% raises sustainability concerns.

Softronic

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

Overview: Softronic AB (publ) offers IT and management services mainly in Sweden, with a market cap of SEK1.21 billion.

Operations: Softronic AB (publ) generates revenue from its Computer Services segment, amounting to SEK838.92 million.

Dividend Yield: 5.9%

Softronic's dividend yield of 5.9% places it among the top 25% of Swedish dividend payers, but sustainability is a concern due to a high cash payout ratio of 94.5%, indicating dividends are not well covered by free cash flows. Although earnings cover the current payout ratio of 85.5%, past volatility and unreliability in payments over the last decade raise caution for investors seeking stable income sources despite recent earnings growth of 34%.
