Re:LEG

Here is what the AI bot found on their dividend:

Dividend
  • Leggett & Platt is a "dividend king" having raised its dividend for 53 consecutive years, indicating a commitment to returning value to shareholders 3 4.
  • However, some analysts are concerned that the chance of a dividend cut has increased due to the company's balance sheet and cash flow challenges 2 4.
  • The company stated it is not changing its objectives of maintaining its investment grade debt ratings and current dividend practices 1.
For me it's more about expected growth which is still low. They have two other divisions:

Leggett & Platt has three main business segments:
  1. Bedding Products
  2. Specialized Products
  3. Furniture, Flooring & Textile Products
  • For 2024, the company expects a decline in total sales, but growth in the automotive and aerospace sectors 3.
  • The company's earnings growth rate is expected to be 33.8% per year, and its earnings per share (EPS) growth rate is forecast at 33.6% per year 2.

We will just see how it plays out. It's a log process to make significant changes that move the needle. I do like their Specialized Products Division as their 'hidden' asset w/ potential to add significant growth.
