Operations: Anhui Expressway Company Limited generates its revenue primarily from the construction and operation of toll roads and related services in China.

Dividend Yield: 6.1%

Anhui Expressway has consistently increased its dividends over the past decade, maintaining stability and reliability. However, while the payout ratio of 65.1% indicates coverage by earnings, a high cash payout ratio of 321.5% suggests dividends are not well supported by free cash flows. The current yield of 6.08% is below top-tier dividend payers in Hong Kong's market. Recent earnings show revenue growth but a decline in net income to CNY 1.22 billion from CNY 1.35 billion last year.

Operations: Castro Model Ltd. generates revenue from several segments, including Apparel Fashions at ₪1.36 billion, Fashion Accessories in Israel at ₪505.50 million, and Care and Cosmetics at ₪75.03 million.

Dividend Yield: 6.8%

Castro Model's dividend yield of 6.8% ranks it among the top 25% in Israel, but its dividends have been volatile over the past decade. Despite this instability, recent earnings growth is notable with net income rising to ILS 77.37 million for the first nine months of 2024 from ILS 14.37 million a year ago. The company's low cash payout ratio of 26.2% indicates dividends are well covered by cash flows, though overall sustainability remains uncertain due to insufficient data on earnings coverage.
