Operations: Ace Bed Company Limited generates revenue from the manufacture and sale of beds and furniture products both domestically in Korea and internationally.
Dividend Yield: 4.6%
Ace Bed's dividend yield of 4.56% places it among the top 25% of KR market payers, supported by a low payout ratio (24%) and stable earnings growth. Despite only five years of dividend history, payments have been reliable with minimal volatility. Recent earnings reports show strong sales growth, though net income slightly declined over nine months. The announced annual dividend of KRW 1,450 per share underscores Ace Bed's commitment to returning value to shareholders.

Dividend Yield: 8.4%
Launch Tech's dividend yield, at 8.37%, ranks in the top quartile of Hong Kong market payers. Despite a high payout ratio of 82.8%, dividends are covered by earnings and cash flows, with a cash payout ratio at 61.4%. However, the company's eight-year dividend history shows volatility and unreliability, with significant annual drops exceeding 20%. Recent amendments to its Articles of Association aim to enhance governance but may not immediately impact dividend stability or growth prospects.

Dividend Yield: 3%
Inner Mongolia Dian Tou Energy's dividend yield of 3.04% is among the top 25% in the Chinese market, yet its sustainability is questionable due to a high cash payout ratio of 156.7%. While dividends are well covered by earnings with a low payout ratio of 35.4%, historical volatility and unreliability persist, with significant drops over the past decade. Recent earnings showed slight revenue growth but declining net income, reflecting potential challenges for future dividend stability.
