The board of JANOME Corporation (TSE:6445) has announced that it will be paying its dividend of ¥35.00 on the 23rd of June, an increased payment from last year's comparable dividend. This takes the dividend yield to 4.7%, which shareholders will be pleased with.

JANOME's Future Dividends May Potentially Be At Risk

If the payments aren't sustainable, a high yield for a few years won't matter that much. Based on the last payment, JANOME's profits didn't cover the dividend, but the company was generating enough cash instead. Healthy cash flows are always a positive sign, especially when they quite easily cover the dividend.

Looking forward, EPS could fall by 23.1% if the company can't turn things around from the last few years. If the dividend continues along recent trends, we estimate the payout ratio could reach 252%, which could put the dividend in jeopardy if the company's earnings don't improve.

JANOME Has A Solid Track Record

The company has an extended history of paying stable dividends. Since 2016, the dividend has gone from ¥10.00 total annually to ¥55.00. This works out to be a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of approximately 19% a year over that time. We can see that payments have shown some very nice upward momentum without faltering, which provides some reassurance that future payments will also be reliable.

The Dividend Has Limited Growth Potential

Some investors will be chomping at the bit to buy some of the company's stock based on its dividend history. However, things aren't all that rosy. JANOME's EPS has fallen by approximately 23% per year during the past five years. Such rapid declines definitely have the potential to constrain dividend payments if the trend continues into the future.
