Balancing Your Portfolio: The Tech Services Stock with a Low Payout Ratio and High Returns

In the constellation of dividend stars, there’s one Tech Services giant that remains a steadfast beacon for balanced investors seeking a harmonious blend of yield, security, and growth potential. This large-cap stalwart, a paragon in the technology sector, upholds a forward payout ratio of 35%—a figure that aligns perfectly with the sector’s average, while its 12-year history of dividend hikes places it in an enviable position within the top echelon of dividend players.

But that’s just the opening act. With a 3-year compound annual growth rate of 15% in dividends per share, it’s not just keeping pace—it’s setting the tempo for robust returns.

And let’s tune in to the immediate cadence: the next payout of an unchanged $0.470 per share, is just around the corner, going ex-dividend on the forthcoming November 14.
