Here's a peek at a few of the choices from the screener.
Artesian Resources
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating:★★★★☆☆
Overview:Artesian Resources Corporation operates by providing water, wastewater, and other related services in Delaware, Maryland, and Pennsylvania with a market cap of $340.78 million.
Operations:Artesian Resources Corporation's revenue is primarily derived from its Regulated Utility segment, which generated $107.22 million.
Dividend Yield:3.9%
Artesian Resources offers a stable dividend history with consistent growth over the past decade, though its 3.86% yield is below the top quartile in the US market. Despite reasonable earnings coverage with a payout ratio of 54.9%, dividends are not supported by free cash flow, raising sustainability concerns. Recent earnings show modest growth, with Q1 2026 net income at US$5.93 million, but significant insider selling and high debt levels could be potential risks for investors.
CME Group
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating:★★★★☆☆
Overview:CME Group Inc. operates global contract markets for trading futures and options on futures contracts, with a market cap of approximately $93.27 billion.
Operations:CME Group Inc. generates revenue primarily from unclassified services, amounting to approximately $6.74 billion.
Dividend Yield:4.5%
CME Group's dividend yield of 4.5% places it among the top 25% of US dividend payers, yet its dividends have been volatile over the past decade. The payout ratio of 42.8% suggests earnings coverage, but a high cash payout ratio (95%) indicates potential sustainability issues. Recent product expansions in cryptocurrency and compute futures highlight growth areas, though significant insider selling may concern investors seeking stability in dividend stocks.
Waterdrop
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating:★★★★☆☆
Overview:Waterdrop Inc. operates as an online insurance brokerage service in the People's Republic of China, connecting users with insurance products, and has a market cap of approximately $503.02 million.
Operations:Waterdrop Inc.'s revenue is primarily derived from its insurance segment, which generated CN¥3.58 billion, and its crowd funding segment, contributing CN¥261.64 million.
Dividend Yield:4.3%
Waterdrop's dividend yield of 4.27% ranks in the top 25% of US dividend payers, though it is too early to assess its stability and growth potential. The dividends are well-covered by earnings (payout ratio: 26.7%) and cash flows (cash payout ratio: 68%). Trading at a good value, Waterdrop has also completed a share buyback program worth $9.54 million, potentially enhancing shareholder value amidst strong revenue and profit growth over the past year.
