17 High Yields With Additional Potential To Grow Dividends

Submitted by Dividend Yield as part of our contributors program.

High yielding stocks with low payout and debt ratios originally published at “long-term-investments.blogspot.com“. Yesterday, I made a screen of Dividend Contenders with low long-term debt to equity ratios as well as slim payouts.

Today I like to widen the latest screen to High-Yields with a market capitalization over USD 300 million. Most of the high yielding stocks are full of debt. The only companies with a smaller amount of loans are such with a lower capitalization. The risks are much higher for those shares. I also needed to lower my screening guidance because of the small amount of results. These are my new criteria:

– Market Capitalization over USD 300 million
– Dividend Yield over 5 percent
– Long-term debt to equity above 0.6
– Payout ratio under 50 percent

Now, twelve stocks fulfill these criteria. Six of the results have a current buy or better rating.
