Spark New Zealand
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Spark New Zealand Limited, along with its subsidiaries, offers telecommunications and digital services in New Zealand and has a market cap of NZ$5.45 billion.
Operations: Spark New Zealand Limited generates revenue from several segments, including Voice (NZ$180 million), Mobile (NZ$1.47 billion), Broadband (NZ$613 million), IT Products (NZ$527 million), IT Services (NZ$165 million), Data Centres (NZ$37 million), and Procurement and Partners (NZ$548 million).
Dividend Yield: 9.2%
Spark New Zealand's dividend yield is among the top 25% in the NZ market, but recent guidance indicates a decrease from 27.5 to 25 cents per share for 2025. While dividends have been stable and reliable over the past decade, they are not well covered by earnings or cash flow due to high payout ratios. The company is trading below its fair value estimate, but it faces challenges with declining profit margins and high debt levels.
