Dividend Safety Protocols

Peer-reviewed operational procedures executed by certified field specialists.

SCREENING PROTOCOL

Free Cash Flow (FCF) Payout Ratio Screen

Detecting imminent dividend cuts before executive board announcements.

  • 01. Calculate FCF Payout Ratio: Dividends Paid divided by Levered Free Cash Flow.
  • 02. If payout ratio exceeds 75% for non-REIT operating corporations, flag for dividend danger.
  • 03. Require minimum 10 consecutive years of annual dividend distribution increases (Dividend Contenders).
DEBT PROTOCOL

Net Debt to EBITDA Leverage Barrier

Screening balance sheets against interest rate refinancing shocks.

  • 01. Inspect total funded debt minus cash against last twelve months (LTM) EBITDA.
  • 02. Disqualify equities where Net Debt / EBITDA ratio exceeds 3.5x in elevated rate environments.
  • 03. Insist on >80% fixed-rate long-term bond debt maturities staggered beyond 5 years.
DRIP PROTOCOL

Tax-Sheltered DRIP Execution

Eliminating cash drag and friction through automated synthetic reinvestment.

  • 01. Execute dividend reinvestment inside tax-advantaged accounts (Roth IRA / HSA) to defer taxes.
  • 02. Enable broker synthetic DRIP for automated zero-commission fractional share purchasing.
  • 03. Compounding dividend yield increases total share accumulation at maximum velocity during market drawdowns.
