Univest Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:UVSP) Looks Interesting, And It's About To Pay A Dividend
Some investors rely on dividends for growing their wealth, and if you're one of those dividend sleuths, you might be intrigued to know that Univest Financial Corporation (NASDAQ:UVSP) is about to go ex-dividend in just four days. The ex-dividend date occurs one day before the record date which is the day on which shareholders need to be on the company's books in order to receive a dividend. The ex-dividend date is of consequence because whenever a stock is bought or sold, the trade takes at least two business day to settle. In other words, investors can purchase Univest Financial's shares before the 6th of November in order to be eligible for the dividend, which will be paid on the 20th of November.
一些投資者依賴分紅來增加財富,如果你是其中一位分紅偵探,你可能會感興趣地知道,賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行(納斯達克:UVSP)將在短短四天內進行除息。 除息日發生在股權登記日的前一天,股權登記日是股東需要在公司賬簿上登記以便獲得分紅的日期。 除淨日很重要,因爲無論何時買賣股票,交易至少需要兩個工作日來結算。 換句話說,投資者可以在11月6日前買入賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行的股票,以便有資格獲得將於11月20日支付的分紅。
The company's upcoming dividend is US$0.21 a share, following on from the last 12 months, when the company distributed a total of US$0.84 per share to shareholders. Calculating the last year's worth of payments shows that Univest Financial has a trailing yield of 3.0% on the current share price of US$27.83. Dividends are an important source of income to many shareholders, but the health of the business is crucial to maintaining those dividends. So we need to check whether the dividend payments are covered, and if earnings are growing.
公司即將發放的股息爲每股美元0.21,延續了過去12個月,該公司向股東每股總共支付了美元0.84。計算過去一年的支付額表明,賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行在當前每股股價爲美元27.83時的滾動收益率爲3.0%。 分紅是許多股東的重要收入來源,但業務的健康對維持這些分紅至關重要。 因此,我們需要檢查分紅支付是否得到覆蓋,以及收益是否在增長。
Dividends are typically paid from company earnings. If a company pays more in dividends than it earned in profit, then the dividend could be unsustainable. Univest Financial paid out a comfortable 34% of its profit last year.
分紅通常來自公司收益。如果公司支付的分紅超過了利潤,那麼分紅可能是不可持續的。 賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行去年支付了其利潤的舒適34%。
When a company paid out less in dividends than it earned in profit, this generally suggests its dividend is affordable. The lower the % of its profit that it pays out, the greater the margin of safety for the dividend if the business enters a downturn.
當一家公司支付的分紅派息比其盈利少時,通常意味着其分紅派息是可負擔的。支付的盈利比例越低,如果企業進入經濟衰退,分紅派息的安全餘地就越大。

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?
收益和股息一直在增長嗎?
Businesses with strong growth prospects usually make the best dividend payers, because it's easier to grow dividends when earnings per share are improving. If business enters a downturn and the dividend is cut, the company could see its value fall precipitously. This is why it's a relief to see Univest Financial earnings per share are up 7.9% per annum over the last five years.
業務增長前景強勁的公司通常是最佳的分紅派息者,因爲在每股收益改善時增加分紅較爲容易。如果企業陷入衰退並削減分紅,公司的價值可能會急劇下跌。這就是爲什麼看到賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行過去五年每股收益年增長率達到7.9%讓人鬆了一口氣。
Another key way to measure a company's dividend prospects is by measuring its historical rate of dividend growth. Univest Financial's dividend payments are broadly unchanged compared to where they were 10 years ago.
衡量公司分紅前景的另一個關鍵方法是通過其歷史分紅增長率。賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行的分紅支付與10年前基本保持不變。

Is Univest Financial an attractive dividend stock, or better left on the shelf? It has been growing its earnings per share somewhat in recent years, although it reinvests more than half its earnings in the business, which could suggest there are some growth projects that have not yet reached fruition. In summary, Univest Financial appears to have some promise as a dividend stock, and we'd suggest taking a closer look at it.
賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行是一隻有吸引力的分紅股,還是最好放在一邊?近年來,它的每股收益有所增長,儘管投資超過一半的盈利用於業務再投資,這可能表明有一些尚未實現的增長項目。總之,賓夕法尼亞裕益銀行看起來具有一定的分紅潛力,我們建議更仔細地研究一下。
