A look at sustainable dividends from companies holding, at least for now, the Queen’s Royal Warrants
Sustainable dividends from companies holding, at least for now, the Queen’s Royal Warrants.The Royal Warrant of Appointment has graced select British goods since the 1400s to highlight their coveted spot in a sitting monarch’s pantry and household. The impact of having a royal stamp of approval is hard to quantify, but retailers point to its power and influence with consumers.
While it now falls to King Charles to decide which products will continue to have use of that crest, those warrants appointed by the Queen have as long as another two years before they expire. We’re looking for sustainable dividend payers among the companies now enjoying the royal endorsement on key products. At the same time, their prospects – including earnings forecasts – are sound regardless of whether they continue to sport the royal seal.
Companies with 10 to 12 points have the most secure dividends, or the highest sustainability. Those with seven to nine points have above-average sustainability; average sustainability, four to six points; and below average sustainability, one to three points.
