Super Retail Group's recent dividend of A$0.32 per share aligns with its historical pattern of fluctuating dividends, reflecting a payout ratio of 65.5% and cash payout ratio of 28.6%. Despite an unstable dividend track record over the past decade, current dividends are supported by earnings and cash flows. The company's stock trades at a significant discount to estimated fair value, offering relative value in comparison to industry peers. Recent management changes could influence future performance, as noted with Anna Sandham's appointment as Company Secretary on March 25, 2024.
Southern Cross Electrical Engineering

Dividend Yield: 3.1%
Southern Cross Electrical Engineering has demonstrated inconsistent dividend reliability, with a history of volatile payments over the past decade. Despite this, its current dividends are supported by a payout ratio of 66.5% and a cash payout ratio of 78.2%, indicating coverage by both earnings and cash flows. However, its dividend yield of 3.13% is relatively low compared to the top Australian dividend payers at 6.27%. Recent inclusion in the S&P/ASX All Ordinaries and Emerging Companies Indexes may influence investor perception but does not directly impact dividend stability or growth.
