Bénéteau
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Bénéteau S.A. designs, manufactures, and sells boats and leisure homes in France and internationally, with a market cap of €814.45 million.
Operations: Bénéteau S.A.'s revenue primarily comes from its boat segment, which generated €1.21 billion.
Dividend Yield: 7.2%
Bénéteau offers a high dividend yield of 7.23%, placing it in the top 25% of French dividend payers, though its dividends have been volatile and not fully covered by free cash flows. The payout ratio is reasonable at 65.8%, but recent earnings reports show a decline in sales to €556.64 million and net income to €49.45 million for the half year ended June 2024, which may impact future dividends' sustainability despite analysts' positive price outlooks.
