Anima Holding (BIT:ANIM)
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★★☆
Overview: Anima Holding S.p.A. is a publicly owned investment manager with a market cap of €2.35 billion.
Operations: Anima Holding S.p.A. generates its revenue primarily from its Asset Management segment, which accounted for €1.41 billion.
Dividend Yield: 6.9%
Anima Holding's dividend is well supported by both earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 63.6% and 39.7% respectively. Despite a strong dividend yield of 6.91%, among the top in Italy, its historical volatility raises concerns about reliability. Recent earnings for H1 2026 showed growth in sales (€222.5 million) and revenue (€286.8 million), but future earnings are expected to decline slightly, potentially impacting dividend sustainability over time.

Operations: ABN AMRO Bank N.V.'s revenue segments include Corporate Banking (€3.05 billion), Wealth Management (€1.74 billion), and Personal & Business Banking (€4.02 billion).
Dividend Yield: 3.1%
ABN AMRO Bank's dividend payments are currently covered by earnings with a payout ratio of 48.6%, and this is expected to remain sustainable in the future. However, its dividend history has been volatile and unreliable over the past decade, despite recent increases. The bank's special dividend of €0.30 per share reflects its commitment to returning capital to shareholders following solid Q1 2026 results, including net income growth to €692 million from €619 million a year ago.
