"This leads to a dividend payout ratio of 120%" ===== Just curious .. but .. What was the price action on the stock during the time period when the payout ratio exceeded 100% ?? Payout ratios over 100% are just not sustainable .. Some companies can and will "borrow" a few dividend payments via the issuance of debt, but that's no good in the long run either .. First "red flag" for me is failure to EARN the dividend or distribution; even if "free cash flow" will cover it in the short term .. Triff ..
