THK
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating:★★★★☆☆
Overview:THK Co., Ltd. manufactures and sells mechanical components across Japan, the Americas, Europe, China, and internationally with a market cap of ¥556.29 billion.
Operations:THK Co., Ltd.'s revenue is derived from its mechanical components business across Japan, the Americas, Europe, China, and other international markets.
Dividend Yield:3.7%
THK's dividend yield of 3.71% ranks in the top 25% among Japanese market payers, but its sustainability is questionable due to a high payout ratio of 273.8%, indicating dividends are not covered by earnings. Despite a history of increasing dividends over the past decade, payments have been unreliable and volatile, with coverage primarily reliant on cash flows (cash payout ratio at 86.4%). Recent financials reveal a net loss for 2025, impacting dividend stability prospects.

Overview:The Yamagata Bank, Ltd. offers a range of banking products and services in Japan with a market cap of ¥79.93 billion.
Operations:The Yamagata Bank, Ltd. generates its revenue through a diverse array of financial services and banking products offered within Japan.
Dividend Yield:3.9%
Yamagata Bank's dividend yield of 3.88% places it in the top 25% of Japanese market payers, supported by a low payout ratio of 34.4%, indicating solid earnings coverage. However, its dividend track record is unstable and unreliable over the past decade. Recent financial updates include a revised year-end dividend increase to ¥50 per share and an active share buyback program aimed at enhancing shareholder returns, reflecting improved earnings guidance driven by higher interest income.
Toyo Securities
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating:★★★★☆☆
Overview:Toyo Securities Co., Ltd. operates as a financial products brokerage service provider in Japan with a market capitalization of approximately ¥46.52 billion.
Operations:Toyo Securities Co., Ltd. generates its revenue primarily through financial products brokerage services in Japan.
Dividend Yield:7.3%
Toyo Securities offers a high dividend yield of 7.3%, ranking it among the top 25% in Japan, but its dividends are not supported by free cash flows and have been unreliable over the past decade. Despite recent earnings growth of 72%, large one-off items affect financial results. The company announced a ¥30 annual dividend per share, payable on June 2, 2026, with an ex-date of March 30, alongside a special ¥20 dividend.
