Is RWAY a good dividend stock?

What the data shows. These are observations, not recommendations — see the disclaimer at the foot of the page.

Yield is far above the marketAt 20.15%, the yield is more than three times the median of 2.78% across US dividend payers. A yield rises when a share price falls, so an unusually high figure often reflects what the market expects rather than what management has promised.
Paying out more than it earnsA payout ratio of 6.55 means the dividend exceeds reported earnings. That can be sustained for a while from cash reserves or borrowing, but not indefinitely.
Dividend has been cut 2 timesAcross 4 complete years, the annual total fell in 2024, 2025. The most recent reduction was in 2025.
