Is the Pfizer dividend safe?
At risk
Pfizer pays 6.6% a year, but that takes 108% of its free cash flow.
The numbers behind it
Dividend yield6.6%
Paid out of free cash flow108%
Paid out of profit126%
Debt in years of earnings3.7 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.
