Don't Buy BGSF, Inc. (NYSE:BGSF) For Its Next Dividend Without Doing These Checks
BGSF, Inc. (NYSE:BGSF) is about to trade ex-dividend in the next 3 days. The ex-dividend date is usually set to be one business day before the record date which is the cut-off date on which you must be present on the company's books as a shareholder in order to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is an important date to be aware of as any purchase of the stock made on or after this date might mean a late settlement that doesn't show on the record date. Accordingly, BGSF investors that purchase the stock on or after the 16th of February will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 27th of February.
BGSF, Inc.(纽约证券交易所代码:BGSF)即将在未来3天内进行除息交易。除息日通常设置为记录日期前一个工作日,即您必须作为股东出现在公司账簿上才能获得股息的截止日期。除息日是需要注意的重要日期,因为在该日或之后购买的任何股票都可能意味着延迟结算,而结算日期并未显示在记录日期。因此,在2月16日当天或之后购买股票的BGSF投资者将不会获得股息,股息将在2月27日支付。
The company's next dividend payment will be US$0.15 per share. Last year, in total, the company distributed US$0.60 to shareholders. Looking at the last 12 months of distributions, BGSF has a trailing yield of approximately 5.7% on its current stock price of US$10.44. If you buy this business for its dividend, you should have an idea of whether BGSF's dividend is reliable and sustainable. That's why we should always check whether the dividend payments appear sustainable, and if the company is growing.
该公司的下一次股息将为每股0.15美元。去年,该公司总共向股东分配了0.60美元。从过去12个月的分配情况来看,BGSF的追踪收益率约为5.7%,而目前的股价为10.44美元。如果你收购这家企业是为了分红,你应该知道BGSF的股息是否可靠和可持续。这就是为什么我们应该经常检查股息支付是否可持续,以及公司是否在增长。
Dividends are usually paid out of company profits, so if a company pays out more than it earned then its dividend is usually at greater risk of being cut. BGSF reported a loss after tax last year, which means it's paying a dividend despite being unprofitable. While this might be a one-off event, this is unlikely to be sustainable in the long term. Given that the company reported a loss last year, we now need to see if it generated enough free cash flow to fund the dividend. If BGSF didn't generate enough cash to pay the dividend, then it must have either paid from cash in the bank or by borrowing money, neither of which is sustainable in the long term. It paid out more than half (50%) of its free cash flow in the past year, which is within an average range for most companies.
股息通常从公司利润中支付,因此,如果公司支付的股息超过其收入,则其股息被削减的风险通常更大。BGSF去年报告了税后亏损,这意味着尽管无利可图,但它仍在支付股息。尽管这可能是一次性事件,但从长远来看,这不太可能持续下去。鉴于该公司去年报告了亏损,我们现在需要看看它是否产生了足够的自由现金流来为股息提供资金。如果BGSF没有产生足够的现金来支付股息,那么它一定要么用银行的现金支付,要么是通过借钱来支付,从长远来看,这两种方式都不是可持续的。在过去的一年中,它支付了自由现金流的一半以上(50%),这在大多数公司的平均范围内。

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?
收益和股息一直在增长吗?
When earnings decline, dividend companies become much harder to analyse and own safely. Investors love dividends, so if earnings fall and the dividend is reduced, expect a stock to be sold off heavily at the same time. BGSF was unprofitable last year and, unfortunately, the general trend suggests its earnings have been in decline over the last five years, making us wonder if the dividend is sustainable at all.
当收益下降时,股息公司变得更加难以分析和安全拥有。投资者喜欢分红,因此,如果收益下降而股息减少,预计股票将同时被大量抛售。BGSF去年无利可图,不幸的是,总体趋势表明其收益在过去五年中一直在下降,这使我们怀疑分红是否可持续。
Another key way to measure a company's dividend prospects is by measuring its historical rate of dividend growth. It looks like the BGSF dividends are largely the same as they were nine years ago. If a company's dividend stays flat while earnings are in decline, this is typically a sign that it is paying out a larger percentage of its earnings. This can become unsustainable if earnings fall far enough.
衡量公司股息前景的另一种关键方法是衡量其历史股息增长率。看来BGSF的股息与九年前基本相同。如果一家公司的股息在收益下降时保持不变,这通常表明其支付的收益比例更大。如果收益下降得足够大,这可能会变得不可持续。

To Sum It Up
总结一下
Should investors buy BGSF for the upcoming dividend? It's hard to get used to BGSF paying a dividend despite reporting a loss over the past year. At least the dividend was covered by free cash flow, however. It's not the most attractive proposition from a dividend perspective, and we'd probably give this one a miss for now.
投资者是否应该为即将到来的股息购买BGSF?尽管在过去的一年中报告了亏损,但很难习惯BGSF支付股息。但是,至少股息由自由现金流支付。从股息的角度来看,这并不是最有吸引力的提议,我们现在可能会错过这个提议。
