Key Considerations

• 📊 The regular Series F preferred dividend suggests the company continues to meet obligations to this layer of capital, which common shareholders may want to factor into their expectations on cash use.
• 📊 Keep an eye on the share price relative to the US$41.00 analyst target, the 11.3x P/E versus the US market, and any updates on dividend coverage from earnings and free cash flow.
• ⚠️ Simply Wall St highlights that earnings are forecast to decline by 20.1% per year over the next 3 years and that interest payments and the dividend are not well covered, which matters when fixed payouts to preferred holders continue.
