Today, the company generates more than $57 billion in sales per year, has nearly 38,000 employees worldwide and manufactures in 31 countries. It makes a wide variety of products, ranging from additives and modifiers used in skin care, paints and paper to polymers used in wires, cables and packaging. Over the past century and a quarter, the company has undergone many changes - acquisitions, spinoffs and consolidations. The current version of Dow has paid a dividend since 2019. It has remained the same at $0.70 per share each quarter, which comes out to a 5% yield. The question is this: Is the dividend safe? Let's find out. SPONSORED He owns...

[More Here] Free cash flow has been a bit inconsistent over the past few years. This year, free cash flow is forecast to drop to $3 billion from $5.5 billion as earnings per share fall from $4.88 in 2022 to $2.32 and revenue declines nearly 22%. Dow pays $2 billion in dividends, so the projected payout ratio is a comfortable 67%. As a result of the deteriorating free cash flow and the limited dividend history, it's hard to declare the dividend safe. Should cash flow decay more than expected, there's a reasonable chance that the dividend will have to be cut.
