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. 12.9 / 25
  • Yield of 3.1% on today's price
Dividend safety Can the company keep paying? The dividend against free cash flow and earnings, plus debt and interest cover. 25.0 / 25
  • Dividend uses 19% of earnings
Dividend growth How many years in a row the dividend has risen, and how fast. 5.4 / 15
  • Dividend up 2 years in a row, 4.2% a year
Quality Return on equity, net margin and how stable the margins are. 11.8 / 15
  • ROE of 25%
Valuation Free cash flow yield and the P/E against its sector. 5.0 / 10
  • P/E 5.9 against 12.9 for its sector
Analysts How far the analysts' average target is from today's price. 5.0 / 5
  • Analysts' target is +47% from the price
  • Score capped at 60: free cash flow was negative in two of the last three years

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