Dunelm Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Dunelm Group plc is a retailer specializing in homewares across the United Kingdom, with a market capitalization of approximately £2.16 billion.
Operations: Dunelm Group plc generates its revenue primarily through the sale of homewares, totaling £1.68 billion.
Dividend Yield: 7.3%
Dunelm Group's dividend history is marked by inconsistency, with volatile payments over the past decade. Despite this, its dividends are supported by a reasonable payout ratio of 58.1% and a cash payout ratio of 74.8%, suggesting that earnings and cash flows sufficiently cover the distributions. The stock's dividend yield stands at 7.31%, placing it in the top quartile of UK dividend payers. Additionally, Dunelm is currently valued at 36% below what is estimated to be its fair value, potentially offering an attractive entry point for investors focused on income generation combined with capital appreciation opportunities.

Operations: IG Group Holdings generates approximately £954.70 million in revenue from its brokerage services.
Dividend Yield: 5.7%
IG Group Holdings offers a dividend yield of 5.69%, ranking in the top 25% of UK dividend payers. Despite a decade of stable and growing dividends, its payout is challenged by a high cash payout ratio of 153.2% and earnings coverage at 61.1%. The stock trades at a significant discount, valued at 55.8% below estimated fair value, suggesting potential for capital appreciation. Recent executive changes could signal strategic shifts; CFO Charlie Rozes will step down by July 2024, amidst modest revenue growth reported in Q3 (£240.1 million).
