SPH is actually on my buy list along with several other companies. I just haven't gotten around to buying it yet because I'm trying to stay diversified as I continue to buy additional equities.

Yield of 6.70% is excellent and for a high yield like that, I think their 5 yr dividend growth rate of 6.55% (CAGR) is excellent. The payout ratio is up this year. It isn't historically that high.

ROE looks impressive at 31.29% Operating margins around 15% look good too. And they have increased dividends for 11 consecutive years.

It wasn't a priority buy for me, but I like them.
