However, the high payout ratio of 98.1% indicates dividends are not well covered by earnings, though they remain covered by cash flows with an 80.8% cash payout ratio. The dividend yield of 6.38% is among the top quartile in the UK market and has shown stability over the past decade, albeit with declining recent earnings performance impacting coverage sustainability concerns.<\/p>\n<p>       <a href=\"https:\/\/simplywall.st\/company\/id\/8c21f62f-bc85-4242-a8e5-e35f2e18d260\/dividend?utm_medium=finance_user&amp;utm_campaign=infographic&amp;utm_source=yahoo&amp;blueprint=4536869\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/britain\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2a6578074fc12abba5ffe50fe1198a9e.png\" alt=\"AIM:JHD Dividend History as at Apr 2026\" loading=\"eager\" height=\"578\" width=\"960\" class=\"yf-lglytj  loaded\"\/><\/a> AIM:JHD Dividend History as at Apr 2026         <\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: \u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606\u2606<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Overview: Fuller, Smith &amp; Turner P.L.C. operates pubs and hotels in the United Kingdom with a market cap of \u00a3340.65 million.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Operations: Fuller, Smith &amp; Turner P.L.C. generates revenue through its Tenanted Inns (\u00a333 million) and Managed Pubs and Hotels (\u00a3356.70 million) segments in the UK.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Dividend Yield: 3.1%<\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1fy9kyt\">Fuller Smith &amp; Turner&#8217;s dividend payments are well-covered by earnings and cash flows, with a payout ratio of 54.4% and a cash payout ratio of 29.7%. While dividends have grown over the past decade, they have been volatile, indicating an unreliable track record. The current yield of 3.14% is below the top tier in the UK market.
