Is WIA a good dividend stock?

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

  • Yield is above the market median7.80% against a median of 2.78% across US dividend payers.
  • Paying out more than it earnsA payout ratio of 1.09 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 8 timesAcross 23 complete years, the annual total fell in 2020, 2021, 2022 and earlier. The most recent reduction was in 2022.
  • Raised for 3 consecutive yearsDerived from split-adjusted payment history and approximate; treat it as a relative signal rather than a certified record.
  • Pays monthlyPayments arrive twelve times a year rather than the usual four, which suits income being drawn rather than reinvested.
