Is TEI 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 9.22%, the yield is more than three times the median of 2.97% 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.
- Dividend is comfortably coveredA payout ratio of 0.56 means roughly 56% of earnings go to the dividend, leaving room to keep paying through a weaker year.
- Dividend has been cut 10 timesAcross 32 complete years, the annual total fell in 2022, 2023, 2025 and earlier. The most recent reduction was in 2025.
- Pays monthlyPayments arrive twelve times a year rather than the usual four, which suits income being drawn rather than reinvested.
