Warabeya Nichiyo Holdings
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Warabeya Nichiyo Holdings Co., Ltd. operates in the manufacturing and sale of food products primarily for convenience stores, both in Japan and internationally, with a market capitalization of approximately ¥44.15 billion.
Operations: Warabeya Nichiyo Holdings Co., Ltd. generates revenue primarily through its Food Related Business, which brought in ¥180.61 billion, followed by its Logistics Business and Food Materials Businesses, contributing ¥18.14 billion and ¥11.68 billion, respectively.
Dividend Yield: 3.6%
Warabeya Nichiyo Holdings maintains a stable dividend, consistently paying JPY 45.00 per share, reflecting reliability over the past decade. Despite a low payout ratio of 36.8%, indicating that dividends are well-covered by earnings, the dividends aren't supported by free cash flow, raising concerns about sustainability. The firm's financial outlook shows steady growth with expected revenues reaching ¥230 billion and an operating profit of ¥4.5 billion for FY2025. Trading below industry average P/E ratios suggests relative value but highlights potential liquidity risks in funding future dividends.
Mory Industries

Operations: Mory Industries Inc. generates its revenue through the production and distribution of stainless steel and welded carbon steel products.
Dividend Yield: 3.3%
Mory Industries offers a modest dividend yield of 3.26%, slightly below the top quartile for Japanese dividend stocks. Over the past decade, dividends have shown growth and stability, supported by a low payout ratio of 34.9% and a cash payout ratio of 25.6%, indicating that earnings and cash flows sufficiently cover dividend payments. Despite its value trading at 67.3% below estimated fair value, potential investors might be cautious due to its highly volatile share price in recent months.
NHK Spring
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: NHK Spring Co., Ltd. operates in Japan, offering products across automobile, data communications, and industry and lifestyle sectors with a market capitalization of approximately ¥372.93 billion.
Operations: NHK Spring Co., Ltd. generates revenue through its automobile, data communications, and industry and lifestyle product segments.
Dividend Yield: 3.3%
NHK Spring has demonstrated a decade of dividend growth, yet its dividend yield of 3.28% remains slightly below the top quartile in Japan's market. Dividends are well-supported by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios at 40.9% and 37.3%, respectively. However, dividends have shown volatility over the past ten years, and recent shareholder activism reflects potential governance concerns. The company's share repurchase program completed in May 2024 may indicate confidence in its financial stability despite these challenges.
