United Overseas Insurance Limited (SGX:U13) Passed Our Checks, And It's About To Pay A S$0.085 Dividend
United Overseas Insurance Limited (SGX:U13) stock is about to trade ex-dividend in 3 days. The ex-dividend date is one business day before the record date, which is the cut-off date for shareholders to be present on the company's books to be eligible for a dividend payment. The ex-dividend date is of consequence because whenever a stock is bought or sold, the trade takes at least two business day to settle. Accordingly, United Overseas Insurance investors that purchase the stock on or after the 1st of August will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 15th of August.
新加坡交易所聯合海外保險有限公司(SGX:U13)股票將於3天后分紅派息。 ex分紅日是記錄日的前1個工作日,也是股東在公司賬簿上出現以有資格獲得股息派發的截止日期。 ex分紅日很重要,因爲每當買賣一支股票時,交易至少需要2個工作日結算。因此,自8月1日以後購買聯合海外保險股票的投資者將不會收到股息,該股息將於8月15日支付。

Dividends are typically paid from company earnings. If a company pays more in dividends than it earned in profit, then the dividend could be unsustainable. United Overseas Insurance paid out a comfortable 33% of its profit last year.
股息通常由公司利潤支付。如果公司支付的股息超過它的利潤,那麼股息可能是不可持續的。去年,聯合海外保險的盈利中有33%舒適地支付了股息。
When a company paid out less in dividends than it earned in profit, this generally suggests its dividend is affordable. The lower the % of its profit that it pays out, the greater the margin of safety for the dividend if the business enters a downturn.
當一家公司支付的分紅派息比其盈利少時,通常意味着其分紅派息是可負擔的。支付的盈利比例越低,如果企業進入經濟衰退,分紅派息的安全餘地就越大。

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?
收益和股息一直在增長嗎?
Businesses with strong growth prospects usually make the best dividend payers, because it's easier to grow dividends when earnings per share are improving. If earnings fall far enough, the company could be forced to cut its dividend. With that in mind, we're encouraged by the steady growth at United Overseas Insurance, with earnings per share up 5.7% on average over the last five years.
業務前景強勁的企業通常是最好的股息支付者,因爲當每股收益改善時,增長股息就更容易。如果收益下降足夠,公司可能被迫削減其股息。考慮到這一點,我們對聯合海外保險的穩定增長感到鼓舞,在過去5年中平均每股收益增長了5.7%。
The main way most investors will assess a company's dividend prospects is by checking the historical rate of dividend growth. Since the start of our data, 10 years ago, United Overseas Insurance has lifted its dividend by approximately 3.4% a year on average. We're glad to see dividends rising alongside earnings over a number of years, which may be a sign the company intends to share the growth with shareholders.
大多數投資者評估公司股息前景的主要方式是檢查股息增長的歷史速度。自我們的數據開始以來,10年內,聯合海外保險的股息平均每年增加約3.4%。我們很高興看到股息隨着多年的收益增加而增加,這可能是公司打算與股東分享增長的跡象。
