Operations: Time Publishing and Media Co., Ltd. generates revenue through the publication of diverse books and periodicals in China.
Dividend Yield: 3.9%
Time Publishing and Media has a volatile dividend history with payments not consistently growing over the past decade. Despite a reasonable payout ratio of 68.2%, dividends are not well covered by free cash flow, indicated by a high cash payout ratio of 254.1%. The dividend yield of 3.91% places it in the top quartile within the CN market, but recent volatility in share price could pose risks for investors seeking stability.

Dividend Yield: 3.6%
Kurabo Industries offers a stable dividend profile with a history of reliable payments over the past decade. While its 3.58% yield is below the top quartile in Japan, dividends are well-covered by earnings (payout ratio of 34.9%) and cash flows (cash payout ratio of 86.3%). Recent developments include a significant dividend increase to ¥120 per share and ongoing share buybacks, enhancing shareholder returns despite potential legal challenges from a lawsuit related to past incidents.
