Operations: Playmates Toys Limited generates revenue primarily from its toys and family entertainment activity products segment, which amounts to HK$1.21 billion.

Dividend Yield: 9%

Playmates Toys provides a complex outlook for dividend investors. While its 8.96% yield ranks in the top quartile of Hong Kong's market, dividends have been historically volatile and unreliable. Recent earnings growth, with net income at HK$91.46 million, supports the interim dividend of HK$0.02 per share announced for September 2024. The company’s low payout ratios indicate dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows, yet past volatility necessitates careful consideration for stable income seekers.
