While dividends have grown steadily over the past decade, they are not well covered by cash flows, with a high cash payout ratio of 107%.

Dividend Yield: 3.2%

Computacenter’s dividend payments have been volatile over the past decade, though they are well covered by earnings and cash flows, with payout ratios of 46.8% and 28.2%, respectively.
