FWIW SFL gets a dividend score of 2 and they have paid dividends since their IPO (one year it was in stock) and have raised it on several occasions. It's still at the high end but I think a 2 score is a bit low. AMNF is too small to even be in their database. That's kind of crazy isn't it? SFL has been very dependable since inception. I cut my AMNF position loose today, it was a small position, so I was only getting chump change as a dividend. I used the proceeds to top off a position in HIE MILLER HOWARD HIGH INC EQTY FD...

Can't tell what all is in there, but looks like everything is historical. Pretty sure most algos will be putting forward numbers in also. How about a safety rating of 7, but after they get this year out of the road, 5 year est. earnings growth of 15%. :) "CVA has been a consistent free cash flow generator and recorded positive free cash flow in 10 of its last 11 fiscal years. Free cash flow is the sign of a healthy business and is needed to fund sustainable dividends. CVA's returns on invested capital most years have been relatively low and suggest that the firm doesn't have much of a moat. During the financial crisis, CVA's sales declined by 2%. Many companies performed worse during the financial crisis, which means that CVA might not be as sensitive to the economy's overall health as many other dividend stocks. CVA's stock returned -21% in 2008, outperforming the S&P 500 by 16% and suggesting it could provide greater downside protection in the event of another bear market. Finally, the stock's price has been somewhat less volatile than the market in recent years. This could mean that the company's fundamentals are somewhat more predictable than other businesses."
