Why this score

How the score is made up
Part of the scorePointsWhy
Yield Dividends per year as a share of today's price. Very high yields count for less: they often signal trouble. 8.4 / 25
  • Yield of 2.0% on today's price
Dividend safety Can the company keep paying? The dividend against free cash flow and earnings, plus debt and interest cover. 8.3 / 25
  • Dividend uses 395% of free cash flow
Dividend growth How many years in a row the dividend has risen, and how fast. 0.5 / 15
  • Dividend growth of 0.5% a year
Quality Return on equity, net margin and how stable the margins are. 3.3 / 15
  • ROE of 2%
Valuation Free cash flow yield and the P/E against its sector. 0.4 / 10
  • P/E 74.6 against 25.3 for its sector
Analysts How far the analysts' average target is from today's price. 5.0 / 5
  • Analysts' target is +31% from the price
  • Score capped at 55: the dividend is not covered by free cash flow or earnings
  • The dividend is not covered by free cash flow (payout 395% of it)
  • Revenue has fallen two years in a row

Income profile: it pays a dividend, so it is scored mainly on the dividend and how safe it is. Based on 95% of the figures (grade A). Warnings take 12 points off.

Warnings take points off and some cap the score. In your account the score also considers how the share fits your portfolio. How the score works
