However, Kyoei Steel's earnings easily cover the dividend. This means that most of its earnings are being retained to grow the business. Over the next year, EPS is forecast to expand by 5.4%. Assuming the dividend continues along recent trends, we think the payout ratio could be 37% by next year, which is in a pretty sustainable range.

The dividend has gone from an annual total of ¥25.00 in 2015 to the most recent total annual payment of ¥90.00. This means that it has been growing its distributions at 14% per annum over that time. Despite the rapid growth in the dividend over the past number of years, we have seen the payments go down the past as well, so that makes us cautious. ## Dividend Growth May Be Hard To Achieve Given that the dividend has been cut in the past, we need to check if earnings are growing and if that might lead to stronger dividends in the future. However, Kyoei Steel's EPS was effectively flat over the past five years, which could stop the company from paying more every year. ## In Summary In summary, while it's good to see that the dividend hasn't been cut, we are a bit cautious about Kyoei Steel's payments, as there could be some issues with sustaining them into the future. The company is generating plenty of cash, which could maintain the dividend for a while, but the track record hasn't been great. We would be a touch cautious of relying on this stock primarily for the dividend income. 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.
