Impro Precision Industries

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Impro Precision Industries Limited supplies casting products and precision machining parts across the Americas, Europe, and Asia with a market cap of HK$4.06 billion.

Dividend Yield: 7.4%

Impro Precision Industries recently affirmed an interim dividend of HK$0.08 per share, supported by a payout ratio of 51.5% from earnings and 67.3% from cash flows, suggesting dividends are well-covered. However, its dividend history is unstable with only five years of payments and volatility over time. Trading at 41.5% below estimated fair value, the stock offers a high yield in Hong Kong's top quartile but lacks reliability due to inconsistent past payouts.

Shanghai Industrial Holdings

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Shanghai Industrial Holdings Limited is an investment holding company involved in infrastructure and environmental protection, real estate, consumer products, and comprehensive healthcare operations across Hong Kong, China, the rest of Asia, and internationally with a market cap of HK$13.89 billion.

Operations: Shanghai Industrial Holdings Limited generates revenue from several segments, including Real Estate (HK$17.26 billion), Infrastructure and Environmental Protection (HK$9.42 billion), and Consumer Products (HK$3.59 billion).

Dividend Yield: 7.4%

Shanghai Industrial Holdings declared an interim dividend of HK$0.42 per share, maintaining last year's level despite declining sales and net income. The dividend yield is high at 7.36%, placing it among the top 25% in Hong Kong, but sustainability is questionable due to a lack of free cash flow coverage and historical volatility in payments. Although earnings cover the payout with a low ratio of 31.5%, past dividend reliability remains a concern for investors seeking stable income streams.
