Eiffage (ENXTPA:FGR)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Eiffage SA operates in the construction and concessions sectors across France, Europe, and internationally, with a market cap of €12.36 billion.

Operations: Eiffage SA's revenue is primarily derived from its Infrastructures segment at €9.17 billion, followed by Energy Systems at €7.68 billion, Concessions at €4.18 billion, Construction at €4.10 billion, and Holding activities contributing €294 million.

Dividend Yield: 3.7%

Eiffage's dividend profile presents a mixed picture. While dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios at 45.5% and 17.7% respectively, the company's dividend history has been volatile over the past decade. Recent inclusion in the CAC 40 index may enhance visibility, yet high debt levels could pose challenges. Despite trading below estimated fair value, its current yield of 3.66% is less competitive compared to top French dividend payers.
