When assessing stocks for dividend investing, a measured strategy is important. The "Best Dividend Stocks" screen finds companies with good dividend traits while keeping steady profitability and financial strength, key elements in maintaining payouts over time. The screen selects stocks with a ChartMill Dividend Rating of 7 or higher, confirming strong dividend performance, along with a Profitability Rating of at least 5 and Health Rating of at least 5 to exclude financially weak or unprofitable companies. One stock that fits these standards is Zimmer Biomet Holdings Inc (NYSE:ZBH), a medical technology firm focused on orthopedic products.
Zimmer Biomet is notable for its steady dividend profile, backed by regular payouts and a stable business approach. Here’s why it suits a dividend-focused plan:
Dividend Consistency:
Reasonable Payout Ratio:
Profitability Backs Dividends:
While ZBH’s Health Rating of 5 shows decent financial strength, there are details to note:
ZBH trades at a P/E of 11.74, well below the S&P 500 (27.24) and cheaper than 91% of its sector peers. This discount, paired with rising revenue and EPS growth forecasts, makes it attractive for dividend investors looking for value.
Zimmer Biomet fits a careful dividend approach, providing a steady payout history, manageable ratios, and strong profitability. Though its yield isn’t the highest, the mix of financial stability and growth prospects makes it a solid pick for investors focused on lasting dividend reliability.
