BioGaia
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: BioGaia AB (publ) is a healthcare company that provides probiotic products worldwide and has a market cap of SEK11.71 billion.
Operations: BioGaia AB (publ) generates revenue primarily from its Pediatrics segment, which accounts for SEK1072.93 million, and its Adult Health segment, contributing SEK288.68 million.
Dividend Yield: 6%
BioGaia's dividend yield of 5.96% places it in the top 25% of Swedish dividend payers, but its high cash payout ratio (193.8%) raises sustainability concerns as dividends are not well covered by free cash flows. Despite a reasonably low payout ratio (47.8%) suggesting coverage by earnings, significant insider selling over the past three months and historically volatile dividends add to the uncertainty. Recent earnings showed growth with Q2 sales at SEK 384.12 million and net income at SEK 111.01 million, indicating potential stability moving forward.
