Brooks Macdonald Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Brooks Macdonald Group plc offers investment and wealth management services to private clients, pension funds, professional intermediaries, and trustees primarily in the UK, Isle of Man, and Channel Islands, with a market capitalization of approximately £318.88 million.
Operations: Brooks Macdonald Group plc generates £19.62 million in revenue from its international operations.
Dividend Yield: 3.8%
Brooks Macdonald Group's dividend yield stands at 3.8%, which is lower than the top quartile of UK dividend payers. Despite a history of stable dividends over the past decade, payments are not well-supported by earnings, with a high payout ratio of 162.6%. However, cash flows more adequately cover dividends, evidenced by a cash payout ratio of 34.2%. Recent executive changes include Andrea Montague's upcoming CEO role from October 2024, succeeding Andrew Shepherd.
Mears Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Mears Group plc operates in the United Kingdom, offering a range of outsourced services to both public and private sectors, with a market capitalization of approximately £352.44 million.
Operations: Mears Group plc generates revenue through three primary segments: Management (£543.35 million), Development (£2.70 million), and Maintenance (£543.28 million).
Dividend Yield: 3.5%
Mears Group's recent dividend increase to 13.00 pence for FY2023, up from 10.50 pence the previous year, reflects a positive cash performance and management confidence. Despite this growth, the dividend yield of 3.55% remains below the UK market's top quartile at 5.61%. The dividends are well-supported by both earnings and cash flows with payout ratios of 39.5% and 11.4%, respectively; however, Mears has exhibited an unstable dividend track record over the last decade.

Stelrad Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Stelrad Group PLC is a company that manufactures and distributes radiators across the UK, Ireland, Europe, Turkey, and other international markets, with a market capitalization of approximately £143.27 million.
Operations: Stelrad Group PLC generates £308.19 million in revenue from its core business of radiator manufacturing and distribution.
Dividend Yield: 6.8%
Stelrad Group PLC offers a competitive dividend yield of 6.79%, ranking in the upper quartile of UK dividend payers. Despite a short history of dividends with only 2 years of payments, recent increases signal potential commitment to shareholder returns. However, dividends have shown volatility and the company's financial management is undergoing transition, with CFO Annette Borén stepping down soon. Trading at 41.8% below estimated fair value and analysts predicting significant price growth, Stelrad presents both opportunities and risks for dividend-focused portfolios.
