ABN AMRO Bank
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. offers a range of banking products and financial services to retail, private, and business clients both in the Netherlands and globally, with a market capitalization of €13.78 billion.
Operations: ABN AMRO Bank N.V. generates revenue primarily through three segments: Corporate Banking (€3.44 billion), Wealth Management (€1.61 billion), and Personal & Business Banking (€4.04 billion).
Dividend Yield: 9.2%
ABN AMRO Bank's dividend profile shows mixed signals for investors focused on income. While the dividend yield of 9.19% stands well above the Dutch market average, its history of volatile payments over a relatively short eight-year period raises concerns about reliability. The bank's dividends are currently supported by a reasonable payout ratio of 50.5%, with similar coverage expected in three years, suggesting sustainability from an earnings perspective. However, projected earnings declines averaging 9.6% annually over the next three years could pressure future payouts, highlighting potential risks in maintaining consistent dividend growth.
Koninklijke Heijmans
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Koninklijke Heijmans N.V. operates in property development, construction, and infrastructure sectors primarily in the Netherlands and abroad, with a market capitalization of approximately €474.28 million.
Operations: Koninklijke Heijmans N.V. generates revenue from several key segments, including Real Estate (€411.79 million), Van Wanrooij (€124.76 million), Infrastructure Works (€800.03 million), and Construction & Technology (€1.08 billion).
Dividend Yield: 5%
Koninklijke Heijmans reported a stable net income of €60 million for 2023, maintaining earnings despite increased sales from €1.81 billion to €2.12 billion. The company's dividend history shows instability with significant fluctuations over the past decade, although dividends are well-covered by a payout ratio of 37.1% and cash flows (59%). Recently, the stock underwent a split effective May 7, 2024, potentially affecting future dividend distributions. Trading at a value deemed 16.5% below its fair estimate, Heijmans presents both opportunities and risks for dividend-focused portfolios in the Netherlands.
Randstad
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Randstad N.V. specializes in offering solutions within the realms of work and human resources services, with a market capitalization of approximately €8.86 billion.
Operations: Randstad N.V. generates its revenue from various human resources services, although specific segment details are not provided in the text.
Dividend Yield: 4.6%
Randstad's dividend yield of 4.56% falls below the top quartile in the Dutch market, but its dividends are well-supported with a payout ratio of 73.4% and a cash payout ratio of 45.9%. Despite this, Randstad has experienced volatility and unreliability in its dividend payments over the past decade. The company's recent financial performance shows a decline, with Q1 2024 sales dropping to €5.94 billion from €6.52 billion year-over-year and net income decreasing to €88 million from €154 million. Additionally, Randstad completed significant share buybacks totaling €316.66 million by April 2024.
