Emera Incorporated, a Canadian energy company, has announced a dividend payment of CAD 0.2789 per share to its preferred shareholders. This marks the latest in a series of dividend declarations from the company, which has been steadily increasing its payouts over the past few years.
According to statistics, Emera’s dividend yield has consistently outperformed the industry average, with a current yield of 4.35% compared to the sector’s average yield of 3.45%. This is likely due in part to the company’s strong financial performance, which has seen its earnings per share (EPS) grow by an impressive 15.6% over the past five years.
In terms of actual dividend payments, Emera has paid out a total of CAD 1.39 billion to shareholders since 2015, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. This represents a significant increase from the company’s earlier dividend payments, which averaged around CAD 0.15 per share in the early 2010s.
The company’s financial performance has also been bolstered by its recent entry into the Florida market, which has seen Emera acquire several key assets and expand its operations in the region. This strategic move is expected to drive further growth and increase shareholder value in the years to come.
