Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606\u2606<\/p>\n
Overview: Next 15 Group plc, with a market cap of \u00a3242.22 million, provides customer insight, delivery, engagement, and business transformation services across the United Kingdom, Africa, the United States, Europe, Middle East, and Africa.<\/p>\n

Dividend Yield: 6.4%<\/p>\n
Next 15 Group’s dividend yield of 6.4% ranks in the top 25% among UK dividend payers, but its sustainability is questionable due to a high payout ratio of 97.5%, indicating dividends are not well covered by earnings. Although cash flows cover dividends with a low cash payout ratio of 22.5%, past payments have been volatile and unreliable, with profit margins declining to 2.3% from last year’s 8.3%.<\/p>\n
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606\u2606<\/p>\n Overview: Alfa Financial Software Holdings PLC provides software and related services for the auto and equipment finance industry globally, with a market cap of \u00a3441.41 million.<\/p>\n Operations: Alfa Financial Software Holdings PLC generates revenue of \u00a3126.70 million from the sale of software and related services to the auto and equipment finance sector across various regions including the UK, North America, Europe, Africa, Australasia, and internationally.<\/p>\n Dividend Yield: 6.5%<\/p>\n Alfa Financial Software Holdings offers a competitive dividend yield of 6.45%, placing it in the top 25% of UK payers, although its track record is unstable with volatile payments over the past five years. Despite this, dividends are well-covered by earnings with a low payout ratio of 14.7%, though cash flow coverage is tighter at an 89.6% cash payout ratio. Recent earnings growth and strong revenue performance enhance its appeal amidst upcoming executive changes.<\/p>\n Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606\u2606<\/p>\n Overview: SThree plc, with a market cap of \u00a3188.89 million, offers workforce consultancy services across multiple countries including Austria, Germany, Switzerland, the United States, and others.<\/p>\n Operations: SThree plc generates its revenue from various regions, with \u00a3289.54 million from the USA, \u00a3397.30 million from the DACH region, \u00a3292.92 million from the Rest of Europe, \u00a341.47 million from the Middle East & Asia, and \u00a3280.96 million from the Netherlands (including Spain).<\/p>\n Dividend Yield: 9.5%<\/p>\n SThree’s dividend yield of 9.48% ranks in the top 25% of UK payers, though its track record is marked by volatility and unreliable growth over the past decade. While dividends are well-covered by cash flows with a low cash payout ratio, they are not covered by earnings, reflecting a high payout ratio of 104.4%. Recent executive changes and a \u00a320 million share buyback program highlight strategic shifts amidst declining profits and sales figures for FY2025.<\/p>\n Click this link to deep-dive into the 43 companies within our Top UK Dividend Stocks<\/a> screener.<\/p>\n Got skin in the game with these stocks?
