BP
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: BP p.l.c. is a company that provides carbon products and services, with a market cap of ￡69.76 billion.
Operations: BP p.l.c.'s revenue segments include Customers & Products ($164.28 billion), Gas & Low Carbon Energy ($36.47 billion), and Oil Production & Operations ($26.07 billion).
Dividend Yield: 5.6%
BP's dividend payments are well-covered by both earnings (68.1% payout ratio) and cash flows (31.4% cash payout ratio), making them sustainable despite a volatile track record over the past decade. Recent results show mixed production figures, with some increases in oil production but overall lower gas & low carbon energy outputs compared to last year. BP announced an interim dividend of $0.08 per share, reflecting its commitment to returning value to shareholders amidst fluctuating earnings and strategic buybacks totaling ￡748 million recently completed.
Dunelm Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Dunelm Group plc is a UK-based retailer specializing in homewares with a market cap of ￡2.53 billion.
Operations: Dunelm Group plc generates ￡1.68 billion in revenue from the retail of homewares in the United Kingdom.
Dividend Yield: 6.2%
Dunelm Group's dividend payments have been volatile over the past decade, though they are well-covered by earnings (58.1% payout ratio) and cash flows (74.8% cash payout ratio). Despite a recent sales report showing ￡399 million for Q4 and ￡1.71 billion for the year, board changes may impact future stability. Trading at 23.1% below its estimated fair value, Dunelm's dividend yield of 6.23% is among the top 25% in the UK market but lacks consistency in growth history.
