Operations: London Security plc generates revenue of £226.71 million from the provision and maintenance of fire protection and security equipment across its operational regions.

Dividend Yield: 3.9%

London Security’s dividend payments have been volatile over the past decade, with a recent interim dividend of 55 pence per share announced. Despite this volatility, the dividends are well covered by earnings (payout ratio: 24.8%) and cash flows (cash payout ratio: 74.4%). However, its dividend yield of 3.87% is lower than the top UK payers. The company’s P/E ratio of 18.6x suggests it is valued below the industry average, potentially offering good value for investors seeking growth alongside dividends.

Despite its strong dividend yield being in the top quartile of the UK market, BYIT’s dividends have been unreliable over the past four years due to volatility. The company is trading at a discount to its estimated fair value, offering potential value for investors.
