生活时光品牌家具

<p>Lifetime Brands, Inc.（纳斯达克代码：LCUT）将在三天后迎来除息日，计划于 5 月 15 日支付每股 0.0425 美元的股息。然而，该公司的股息并未得到盈利的良好支持，因为去年报告了亏损，并将 116% 的自由现金流作为股息支付。这引发了对股息可持续性的担忧。在过去十年中，股息的年均增长率为 1.3%。总体而言，由于这些风险，Lifetime Brands 可能不适合成为长期的股息股票</p>

<p>It looks like <strong>Lifetime Brands, Inc.</strong> (NASDAQ:LCUT) is about to go ex-dividend in the next three days. The ex-dividend date is one business day before the record date, which is the cut-off date for shareholders to be present on the company's books to be eligible for a dividend payment. It is important to be aware of the ex-dividend date because any trade on the stock needs to have been settled on or before the record date. This means that investors who purchase Lifetime Brands' shares on or after the 1st of May will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 15th of May.</p>

</div><p>The company's next dividend payment will be US$0.0425 per share, on the back of last year when the company paid a total of US$0.17 to shareholders. Calculating the last year's worth of payments shows that Lifetime Brands has a trailing yield of 2.5% on the current share price of US$6.84. Dividends are a major contributor to investment returns for long term holders, but only if the dividend continues to be paid. We need to see whether the dividend is covered by earnings and if it's growing.</p>

</div><p>Dividends are typically paid from company earnings. If a company pays more in dividends than it earned in profit, then the dividend could be unsustainable. Lifetime Brands's dividend is not well covered by earnings, as the company lost money last year. This is not a sustainable state of affairs, so it would be worth investigating if earnings are expected to recover. Given that the company reported a loss last year, we now need to see if it generated enough free cash flow to fund the dividend. If Lifetime Brands didn't generate enough cash to pay the dividend, then it must have either paid from cash in the bank or by borrowing money, neither of which is sustainable in the long term. Over the past year it paid out 116% of its free cash flow as dividends, which is uncomfortably high. It's hard to consistently pay out more cash than you generate without either borrowing or using company cash, so we'd wonder how the company justifies this payout level.</p>

</div><h2>Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>盈利和股息是否在增长？</h2>
</div><p>When earnings decline, dividend companies become much harder to analyse and own safely. If earnings fall far enough, the company could be forced to cut its dividend. Lifetime Brands reported a loss last year, and the general trend suggests its earnings have also been declining in recent years, making us wonder if the dividend is at risk.</p>

</div><h2>The Bottom Line</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>结论</h2>
</div><p>Has Lifetime Brands got what it takes to maintain its dividend payments? It's hard to get used to Lifetime Brands paying a dividend despite reporting a loss over the past year. Worse, the dividend was not well covered by cash flow. Overall it doesn't look like the most suitable dividend stock for a long-term buy and hold investor.</p>
