问题如下:
Bob is the CFO of the HL Resources Ltd., analysing the dividend safety of the company. He gathers the following information with two comparable companies.
Which company has the lowest dividend sustainability?
选项:
A.Comparable A
Comparable B
HL Resources
解释:
FCFE coverage ratio = FCFE/[Dividends + Share repurchases]
A ratio less than 1 is not sustainable because the company B is paying out more than it can afford by drawing down existing cash/marketable securities, thereby decreasing liquidity.
为什么不直接拿FCFE/dividend,股票回购又不属于分红
