Shares of Alpine Income Property Trust, Inc. (PINE Quick QuotePINE ) gained 1.2% after the company announced a 2% sequential hike in its third-quarter cash dividend. It will now pay out a dividend of 25.5 cents per share, up from 25 cents disbursed in the prior quarter. The increased dividend will be paid out on Sep 30 to its shareholders of record as of Sep 9, 2021.
Based on the raised rate, the annual dividend came to $1.02 a share, resulting in an annualized yield of 5.5%, considering the company’s closing price of $18.51 on Aug 20.
Can Alpine Maintain Its Payout?
Alpine’s ability to sustain the hiked dividend depends on the growth rate of its funds from operations (FFO) and the payout ratio. The company’s current payout ratio of 60.3% is lower than its industry’s average of 67.6%, indicating scope for its steady dividend increase.
The company has a decent surprise history. Its FFO surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate in two of the trailing four quarters, missing the mark in one and meeting the same in the other, the average beat being 2.02%. Its performance this depicts a robust FFO picture. Its FFO is projected at a growth rate of 17.3%, higher than the industry average of 5.9%.

That’s in line with the valuation of a similar name, Honeywell (NASDAQ:HON), which trades at 23.9 forward earnings. But other diversified industrial companies trade at even lower valuations, such as 3M (NYSE:MMM), which has a forward P/E ratio of 16.9.
