Overview: Anglo-Eastern Plantations Plc, with a market cap of £351.40 million, owns, operates, and develops oil palm plantations in Indonesia and Malaysia.
Operations: Anglo-Eastern Plantations generates revenue of $372.26 million from its oil palm cultivation activities in Indonesia and Malaysia.
Dividend Yield: 4.3%
Anglo-Eastern Plantations recently approved a final dividend of 51.0 cents per share, translating to 37.88 pence for those opting for Pound Sterling, reflecting its commitment to shareholder returns despite a volatile dividend history. The company’s dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows with low payout ratios of 29.8% and 44.7%, respectively, suggesting sustainability despite past inconsistencies. However, the dividend yield remains modest compared to top UK payers, and recent board changes may influence future strategies.

Dividend Yield: 3.3%
Goodwin PLC has proposed a significant dividend increase to 280 pence per share, up from 133 pence last year, pending shareholder approval. While the dividend yield of 3.29% is below the top UK payers, it remains reliable and stable over the past decade. The payout ratio of 85.6% indicates dividends are covered by earnings and cash flows, suggesting sustainability. Recent board changes may impact future governance but have not affected current dividend policies or financial health.
