LCNB's Dividend Forecasted To Be Well Covered By Earnings If the payments aren't sustainable, a high yield for a few years won't matter that much. LCNB has established itself as a dividend paying company with over 10 years history of distributing earnings to shareholders. Taking data from its last earnings report, calculating for the company's payout ratio shows 53%, which means that LCNB would be able to pay its last dividend without pressure on the balance sheet.

Analysts estimate the future payout ratio will be 50% over the same time period, which is in the range that makes us comfortable with the sustainability of the dividend. NasdaqCM:LCNB Historic Dividend November 25th 2025 View our latest analysis for LCNB LCNB Has A Solid Track Record Even over a long history of paying dividends, the company's distributions have been remarkably stable. Since 2015, the dividend has gone from $0.64 total annually to $0.88. This means that it has been growing its distributions at 3.2% per annum over that time. While the consistency in the dividend payments is impressive, we think the relatively slow rate of growth is less attractive. The Dividend's Growth Prospects Are Limited The company's investors will be pleased to have been receiving dividend income for some time. However, LCNB has only grown its earnings per share at 2.2% per annum over the past five years. LCNB is struggling to find viable investments, so it is returning more to shareholders. While this isn't necessarily a negative, it definitely signals that dividend growth could be constrained in the future unless earnings start to pick up again. LCNB Looks Like A Great Dividend Stock In summary, it is good to see that the dividend is staying consistent, and we don't think there is any reason to suspect this might change over the medium term. Distributions are quite easily covered by earnings, which are also being converted to cash flows. All in all, this checks a lot of the boxes we look for when choosing an income stock. Companies possessing a stable dividend policy will likely enjoy greater investor interest than those suffering from a more inconsistent approach. Still, investors need to consider a host of other factors, apart from dividend payments, when analysing a company.
