Why Upbound Group (UPBD) is a Top Dividend Stock for Your Portfolio
Getting big returns from financial portfolios, whether through stocks, bonds, ETFs, other securities, or a combination of all, is an investor's dream. But for income investors, generating consistent cash flow from each of your liquid investments is your primary focus. Cash flow can come from bond interest, interest from other types of investments, and, of course, dividends. A dividend is that coveted distribution of a company's earnings paid out to shareholders, and investors often view it by its dividend yield, a metric that measures the dividend as a percent of the current stock price. Many academic studies show that dividends account for significant portions of long-term returns, with dividend contributions exceeding one-third of total returns in many cases. Headquartered in Plano, Upbound Group (UPBD) is a Finance stock that has seen a price change of -7.99% so far this year. Currently paying a dividend of $0.39 per share, the company has a dividend yield of 5.81%. In comparison, the Financial - Leasing Companies industry's yield is 3.76%, while the S&P 500's yield is 1.52%. Looking at dividend growth, the company's current annualized dividend of $1.56 is up 4% from last year. Over the last 5 years, Upbound Group has increased its dividend 4 times on a year-over-year basis for an average annual increase of 5.75%. Looking ahead, future dividend growth will be dependent on earnings growth and payout ratio, which is the proportion of a company's annual earnings per share that it pays out as a dividend. Upbound Group's current payout ratio is 39%, meaning it paid out 39% of its trailing 12-month EPS as dividend. Earnings growth looks solid for UPBD for this fiscal year. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for 2025 is $4.18 per share, with earnings expected to increase 9.14% from the year ago period. Investors like dividends for many reasons; they greatly improve stock investing profits, decrease overall portfolio risk, and carry tax advantages, among others. But, not every company offers a quarterly payout. For instance, it's a rare occurrence when a tech start-up or big growth business offers its shareholders a dividend. It's more common to see larger companies with more established profits give out dividends. Income investors have to be mindful of the fact that high-yielding stocks tend to struggle during periods of rising interest rates. That said, they can take comfort from the fact that UPBD is not only an attractive dividend play, but also represents a compelling investment opportunity with a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy).
