Harvey Norman Holdings
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Harvey Norman Holdings Limited operates in integrated retail, franchise, property, and digital system sectors with a market capitalization of approximately A$5.59 billion.
Operations: Harvey Norman Holdings Limited generates revenue through various geographical retail segments, including A$982.46 million from New Zealand, A$204.83 million from Slovenia & Croatia, A$691.09 million from Singapore & Malaysia, A$237.17 million from non-franchised retail operations, and A$676.83 million from Ireland & Northern Ireland.
Dividend Yield: 4.5%
Harvey Norman Holdings has demonstrated a consistent increase in dividend payments over the past decade, supported by earnings and cash flows with a payout ratio of 73.4% and a cash payout ratio of 39.2%, respectively. However, its dividend yield of 4.45% trails behind the top quartile of Australian dividend stocks at 6.69%. Additionally, despite growing profits forecasted at 9.45% annually, its profit margins have declined from 26.6% to 13.4%, reflecting potential volatility in its financial stability.
JB Hi-Fi
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Operations: JB Hi-Fi Limited generates revenue through three primary segments: The Good Guys (TGG) with A$2.66 billion, JB Hi-Fi Australia (JB Aust) at A$6.57 billion, and JB Hi-Fi New Zealand (JB NZ) contributing A$0.28 billion.
Dividend Yield: 4.2%
JB Hi-Fi's dividend yield of 4.23% sits below the top quartile in Australia, yet its dividends are reasonably secure with a 65% payout ratio and better coverage by cash flows at 46.7%. Despite this, dividends have shown volatility over the past decade and earnings are expected to drop by an average of 1.9% annually over the next three years. Recent sales figures indicate slight declines in JB HI-FI Australia and The Good Guys segments, contrasting with growth in JB HI-FI New Zealand.
