Is the ADT dividend safe?
Looks safe

The numbers behind it
Dividend yield3.3%
Paid out of free cash flow14%
Paid out of profit31%
Debt in years of earnings2.6 years
How we decide
We look at how much of its free cash flow a company hands out. Under 60% leaves room, 60% to 90% is tight, and above 90% or heavy debt puts the dividend at risk.
