LifeVantage's Projected Earnings Seem Likely To Cover Future Distributions While yield is important, another factor to consider about a company's dividend is whether the current payout levels are feasible. However, LifeVantage's earnings easily cover the dividend. As a result, a large proportion of what it earned was being reinvested back into the business. Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 24.2%. If the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate the payout ratio will be 19%, which is in the range that makes us comfortable with the sustainability of the dividend. NasdaqCM:LFVN Historic Dividend September 5th 2025 Check out our latest analysis for LifeVantage LifeVantage Doesn't Have A Long Payment History The dividend hasn't seen any major cuts in the past, but the company has only been paying a dividend for 3 years, which isn't that long in the grand scheme of things. The annual payment during the last 3 years was $0.12 in 2022, and the most recent fiscal year payment was $0.18. This implies that the company grew its distributions at a yearly rate of about 14% over that duration. LifeVantage has been growing its dividend quite rapidly, which is exciting. However, the short payment history makes us question whether this performance will persist across a full market cycle. Dividend Growth May Be Hard To Achieve Investors who have held shares in the company for the past few years will be happy with the dividend income they have received. Unfortunately things aren't as good as they seem. LifeVantage has seen earnings per share falling at 2.5% per year over the last five years. Declining earnings will inevitably lead to the company paying a lower dividend in line with lower profits. However, the next year is actually looking up, with earnings set to rise. We would just wait until it becomes a pattern before getting too excited. In Summary Overall, we don't think this company makes a great dividend stock, even though the dividend wasn't cut this year. The company is generating plenty of cash, which could maintain the dividend for a while, but the track record hasn't been great. We don't think LifeVantage is a great stock to add to your portfolio if income is your focus. Companies possessing a stable dividend policy will likely enjoy greater investor interest than those suffering from a more inconsistent approach.
