8 Dividend Grower With Very Low Debt Ratios

When we talk about safe dividend stocks, one criteria that makes the company more secure is cash or low debt.

The financial situation of a corporate is very essential for the future success. Only with low debt and cash on banks, a firm has enough potential to act independent. They don't need to look for new capital injections to finance growth or repay debt.

Today I like to show you those large cap stocks with a longer dividend growth history that have the lowest debt-to-equity ratio.

They have extremly low ratios of less than 0.1. Which stocks do you like?

7 Of The Most Underestimated Dividend Stocks

It's hard to define a solid investing criterion which could bring you solid gains while excluding the big risks. 

I personally believe in dividends as a safe haven criteria because cash you have received in the past could compensate a potential loss. 

For sure, this is not a good return driver, especially when we are talking about yields of 1-2 percent yearly, but each penny sums to dollars if you compile enough of them.

Today I run my daily screen about cheap dividend paying stocks with double-digit earnings growth forecasts for the next five years. 

In addition, the stocks have a very comfortable debt situation, measured by a debt-to-equity ratio of less than 0.5.

These are my favorites from the screening results:

Big dividends are dead? No, I don't think so. Despite the fact that the FED and other national banks killed the interest rates, there are still high and stable dividend payments.

3 Unbelievable Dividend Champions With Zero Debt And Promising Payout Growth

Investors should be careful while investing in stocks under different sectors. You might be tempted to invest in stocks that pay out high dividends, but what you also need to check is whether these companies have any debts or not.

If a company has huge debts, you must strictly stay away from it, however high its dividends are. Such companies cannot be trusted upon to pay out high dividends in the future as the cash flow that they generate would be used for settling debts.

A company that pays out a reasonable rate of dividend and has very little debts is still a better choice. However the best choice would be a company with absolutely no debt at all. Are there any companies like these? If yes, which ones are best in terms of growth?

Today I show you the fastest growing Dividend Champions with zero debt. Those stocks have a double-digit earnings growth forecast for the next five years as well as a low debt to equity ratio of less than 0.1.

18 Cheap And Perfect Dividend Stocks To Consider

I write a lot about investments, mostly about dividend paying stocks which have grown payments over a long period of time.

I personally believe that those companies offer true values for normal do-it-yourself investors like you and me.

The great risk is always that the company is leaving its growth path and cannot hike dividends in the future.

Today I try finding a perfect stock. It is a cheaply valuated company with solid debt and growth perspectives. In addition the corporate should generate a double-digit return on investment.

16 stocks fulfilled my criteria. I've selected only companies with a large market cap. I love bigger capitalized companies because they are often more secure than small and midcaps. Safety is a key element in my investment philosophy.

Attached is the list of my 16 results. Most of them are low yielders but in times of low interest rates, it is no shame to own stocks with a yield below 3 percent.

8 High-Return Creating Stocks

When you invest in dividend stocks you need also look at internal return rates. The most popular ratios are return on equity and return on investment.

A company that has a big return on equity and also low debt ratios means that the high ratio was not created by taking debt and boosting earnings. Great for us investors; we own a piece of a high income generating company.

If the company can scale up its sales by taking more debt and issuing new shares, our return could boost. That's also one reason why I look at low debt with good return on equity ratios. If the company also do stock buybacks and hiked dividends, great!

My experience is that no companies fulfill everything. It's no shame when a company suffers and do not meet every optimum value. Each business is volatile and risky.

I've tried to create a screen, based on some return figures. Below are my 8 favorites. At the end of this article, you can find a list with 16 additional stocks.

These are my main criteria:
- Midcap+
- Forward P/E under 15
- Operating Margin over 15 percent
- Debt-to-equity under 1
- Return on Equity 15%+
- Payout half of profits
- Mid-digit Earnigns growth forecasts

These 7 Dividend Cash Cows Produce Money Like Milk (Part I)

Investing is great. You can spend money on stocks and if your bet goes wild you will make a lot of money. That's a great dream for all of us and I can tell you that it's possible to become an investment Pro.

I'm a guy who looks steadily at stocks and try to find attractive investment stories and cheap stocks in order to make a good return.

I'm not short term focused; plan to hold most of my stocks over years and decades. Due to my long investment horizon, I need good companies that grow over time their business, pay me good dividends, and grow dividends as well.

But the most important question is that the corporate can grow without taking new investors on board. Those actions will grow outstanding shares in general and bring pressure on earnings per share growth.

I look for companies have generated high free cash flows, companies with a business model that don't need much money to keep their operational business alive.

I've tried to find some new ideas with an old screener who has a quick option; it’s called the reinvestment rate. I don't know how they calculate this ratio but when I sort the list of large with high margins by this ratio, companies with low investment spending on their operational cash flow come first.

Big Money Roll In Your Pocket

I talk about companies with a high scalable business, stocks with the lowest need of capital expenditures. First you might think about Facebook or all the great tobacco companies. For sure those shares generate big free cash flows.

But there are much more companies, I talk about technology stocks and money platforms. The key is here the platform business. Each new customer doesn't cause new costs and bring free cash into the corporate. That's a great idea of making money.

The only item to care about is market entry barriers. Can competitors easily enter and push down margins? If yes, keep your fingers away of buy only at low multiples.

Below are seven detailed stocks. I will follow up with 8 additional stocks. That's only a selection; there are much more companies available. Some of them pay no dividends other a low one but dividend is not the key.

5 Top Dividend Stocks With No Debt But High Cash On Balance Sheet

I hate it when one of my stock holdings cut its dividends. Tesco did it recently and I will lose now 75 percent of my income from the stake. 

For sure, it’s not much because the stock has only a portfolio share of around one percent but I've bought this share in hopes to get a stable output or a rising long-term dividend with low taxation.

Recently I wrote about stocks that have lower debt amounts on their balance sheets. I made this with thoughts in my mind to avoid a future dividend cut. 

Today I will strengthen my criteria and tighten the focus on stocks with no debt and high cash amounts. That's the highest level of safeness every investor could reach.

I found the graphic on US Today with some interesting stocks in terms of cash and debt (look at the end of this article). 

The list shows 26 U.S. stocks with no debt! There are more available on the market but those are some of the biggest and you might know them.

Cash is king and large capitalization too. I love big capitalized stocks because of their good business diversification. Those stocks have often a well diversified product portfolio and great sales teams all over the world. 

Big companies also have more money for research and development and offer more money and social benefits to the best talented people in the world.

If one country or currency suffers, a different one can eliminate the problems with sales growth. No every problem can be solved so easy but investors have a better chance to make a good return.

No debt could also mean more money for shareholders (Dividends or Share Buybacks) or a higher growth. The company can invest into the future by acquisitions or product investments.

In the end, everything is a question of the ability of the management team; a good team can boost the company while a bad head can bring them down.

Below are five of my favorite stocks with no debt and high cash mountains.

8 Stocks With Nearly Safe Dividends

A good example how debt destroys the dreams of dividend growth investors is Tesco. The company cut its dividend payments yesterday by 75 percent. 

The major reasons for the trigger were worsening earnings as well as a high debt burden. 

Warren Buffett also bought a small stake in Tesco a few years ago and most of us thought it was a safe haven but as I saw the huge debt amount of 10 billion British pounds, I was shocked. Am I wrong? Did I oversee something my analysis? No! Now we see the bitter result of a weakening business with high debt.

I personally love companies with strong growth and low debt ratios. In my blog I've also often published hundreds of stock ideas and some of them performed very well.

The market is full of high dividend payer with a big long-term debt portfolio. Below are eight large cap dividend stocks with very low debt-to-equity ratios.

I've focused my thoughts on stocks with a yield over 2 percent but you must consider the full amount of cash which the company owns. The higher the cash per share, the better the premium you can pay but in the end, it’s the operational business that drives the stock up or down.

Only a good growing company with better developing business perspectives can lift up your asset. I know that it is hard to look into the future and nobody has the ability to do this but with a small piece of unclouded thoughts, your investment should become a clear target or trash.

5 Cash-Hoarding Stocks With Top Yields And Strong Cash Flows (PFE, COP, CVX, LLY, MRK)

While I made my daily research on several stock market screeners, one question came deeply into my mind. When the markets are so expensive, who are the cheapest stocks, not by P/E but in terms of cash flow or Ebitda. I also included the Cash and debt of the company.

So, the good thing is that you can buy stocks in every market cycle but you must be careful with your investment spending.

Your final return depends in the end on your inital investment cost and if you buy at a high price, your return will fall into a low or negative area.

Good to know that dividends can upper your yield but my experience is that it could be very painful for an investor to look at a suffering return over years.

These are my criteria:

- Market Cap over 15 Billion

- Dividend Yield in the higher yield space over 3 percent

- Cheapest Enterprise-To-Ebitda Ratio on the market

My screen delivered some interesting results in the large cap area: Oil companies are top. 

COP, CVX are the best results in terms of EV/EBITDA. Both have a ratio of around 5 which is very comfortable in the current situation but what about Russia and the Middle East crises?

My second best results came from the technology space: Intel and Verizon. Warren Buffett added his VZ stake by one third on the past quarter and he might be right because VZ is much cheaper than rival AT&T. The EV/EBITDA ratio is only at 6.35 while T has a ratio of 9.66.

Healthcare is also good positioned with Merck, Pfizer and Eli Lilly but those are suffering on the patent cliff.

I believe that it does not make sense to look at stocks with a higher ratio. For sure cash flows can come down and the full sheet becomes trash but most of the companies serve values. What are your thoughts about my current screen? How are you invested?

These are the best results in terms of lowest debt-to-equity ratio:

6 Stocks With A High Possibility To Double Dividends

Dividend growth investors like me don't look at high yielding stocks. I am looking for companies that hike their dividends and my income very fast.

I like to see that my personal income from dividends is rising but only healthy growing stocks can give me such an opportunity.

I'm looking each day for good bargains on the stock market but only a few companies can give me a huge possibility to double dividends over a few years.

Debt and growth are two very important factors when you look at rising dividends. But those two figures are no warranty for good returns. I'm talking about high valuations. If you buy at high prices or big P/E ratios, you will definitely loose money despite your growing dividend income.

Below are six stocks with low debt ratios and solid earnings growth predictions. Most of them have a P/E between 15 and 20. Not too expensive but when money is flooding out of the market, those valuations can shrink to 10 to 15. The good thing is that you can easily buy shares at 50 percent higher yields.

5 Highest Yielding Long-Term Dividend Plays In A Hot Stock Market

I had a great success with dividend stocks over the past decade. In total, I could realize a six-figure amount of money for my trading accounts. But if I compare the values with the time that I've spent over the recent decade, I could advice you to become a passive income investor.
