Dividend Yield: 6.6%
Cathay Pacific Airways' dividend sustainability is supported by a payout ratio of 50.8% and a cash payout ratio of 32.8%, indicating coverage by both earnings and cash flows. However, its dividend history has been volatile over the past decade. Recent developments include a HK$0.64 per share interim dividend for 2025, reflecting an increase in dividends despite past instability, while recent revenue growth to HK$116.77 billion further supports potential future payouts.
Take a closer look at Cathay Pacific Airways' potential here in our dividend report. Our expertly prepared valuation report Cathay Pacific Airways implies its share price may be lower than expected.SEHK:293 Dividend History as at May 2026
Quanta Computer
Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆
Overview: Quanta Computer Inc. is engaged in the manufacturing, processing, and selling of laptop computers and telecommunication products across the United States, Mainland China, the Netherlands, Japan, and other international markets with a market cap of NT$1.33 trillion.
Operations: Quanta Computer Inc. generates revenue primarily from its Electronics Sector, which amounts to NT$4.38 billion.
Dividend Yield: 4.5%
Quanta Computer's dividend payments have been stable and reliable over the past decade, though they are not well covered by free cash flows. Despite a payout ratio of 80.2% being supported by earnings, the lack of free cash flow coverage raises sustainability concerns. Recent earnings growth, with net income rising to TWD 74.99 billion in 2025 from TWD 59.70 billion in 2024, highlights strong financial performance but does not alleviate these dividend sustainability issues entirely.
Unlock comprehensive insights into our analysis of Quanta Computer stock in this dividend report. According our valuation report, there's an indication that Quanta Computer's share price might be on the cheaper side.TWSE:2382 Dividend History as at May 2026

- Why Wells Fargo (WFC) Is Strengthening Its Consumer Ecosystem
Apr 30, 2026
With stock buybacks of $16.52 billion in the 12 months through September 2025, Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) is among the 20 Stocks with the Biggest Share Buybacks.
Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) announced on April 28 the addition of Cathay Pacific to its Rewards Points Transfer program. Eligible Wells Fargo credit cardholders can now link their Cathay memberships and transfer points to Asia Miles at a 1:1 ratio, with no minimum balance requirement and no waiting period for redemption, enhancing the value proposition of the bank’s consumer card ecosystem.
On April 23, Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) replaced Barclays PLC as lender on a GBP 143 million property loan tied to Market Financial Solutions, according to Bloomberg. The refinancing underscores Wells Fargo’s continued activity in large-scale commercial lending and structured finance transactions despite a more selective credit environment.
Wells Fargo & Company (NYSE:WFC) is a leading multinational financial services institution founded in 1852 and headquartered in San Francisco, California. The company provides banking, investment, mortgage, treasury, and consumer/commercial finance services, while serving large corporate and institutional clients in more than 35 countries.
The expansion of its rewards ecosystem and continued participation in sizable lending mandates demonstrate Wells Fargo’s diversified earnings base across consumer and commercial banking. Supported by $16.52 billion of stock buybacks over the prior twelve months, the company remains well positioned to deliver shareholder value through capital returns and operating leverage.
While we acknowledge the potential of WFC as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk. If you're looking for an extremely undervalued AI stock that also stands to benefit significantly from Trump-era tariffs and the onshoring trend, see our free report on the best short-term AI stock.

- Assessing Cathay Pacific Airways (SEHK:293) Valuation After Recent Weak Share Performance
Apr 28, 2026
Track your investments for FREE with Simply Wall St, the portfolio command center trusted by over 7 million individual investors worldwide.
Reviewing Cathay Pacific Airways after recent share performance
Cathay Pacific Airways (SEHK:293) has drawn investor attention after a recent stretch of weaker share performance, with the stock showing declines over the past week, month, and past 3 months despite a positive 1 year total return.
See our latest analysis for Cathay Pacific Airways.
The recent 1 day, 7 day, 30 day and 90 day share price returns all sit in negative territory, which contrasts sharply with Cathay Pacific Airways' strong multi year total shareholder returns and suggests momentum has cooled after a much stronger run for long term holders.
If this recent pullback has you thinking about other opportunities in transportation related or capital intensive sectors, it could be a good moment to scan for ideas using a curated list of 97 top founder-led companies
With Cathay Pacific still showing strong multi year returns, but recent setbacks and trading below some analyst targets, you have to ask: is this a genuine value opportunity, or has the market already priced in future growth?
Most Popular Narrative: 3.8% Undervalued
Cathay Pacific's most followed narrative pegs fair value at HK$11.98, slightly above the last close at HK$11.52, which frames the recent pullback as a modest discount to that view.
First of all, I have to eat humble pie: The lads and lassies from Hong Kong have made me looking foolish with my last estimate of their prospects, and I own up to my humbling. That said, it is my turn to fully acknowledge the carrier's success: In fact, Cathay has become one of the most profitable, attractive propositions in the whole aviation sector, with yields particularly in their important cargo business hard to match. That also is where I erred: Rather than being affected negatively by the Sino-American trade stand-off, Cathay cashed in on increased cargo demand in its network covering South-East Asia, where much of Chinese exports have been redirected to since the initial shock of last year's "Liberation Day".
Read the complete narrative.
Want to see what sits behind that valuation call according to PittTheYounger? The narrative leans heavily on robust margins, disciplined profitability and a richer future earnings multiple than many peers. Curious how those revenue, margin and earnings assumptions stack up against the HK$11.98 fair value and recent share swings? The full narrative lays out the financial story in detail.
Story Continues
Result: Fair Value of HK$11.98 (UNDERVALUED)
Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.
However, this thesis still faces pressure points, including sensitivity to fuel costs and any sharp slowdown in cargo demand, which would quickly test current margin assumptions.
Find out about the key risks to this Cathay Pacific Airways narrative.
Next Steps

- Asian airlines see surge in demand to Europe amid Gulf turmoil
Apr 20, 2026
STORY: Major Asian airlines have reported surging demand on European routes as travelers shun disrupted Middle Eastern hubs.Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific Airways, Singapore Airlines, Korean Air Lines and Australia's Qantas Airways last week disclosed robust performances on European routes in March.That's despite grappling with a doubling in the price of jet fuel as a result of the conflict. Singapore Airlines said the percentage of seats filled on its European flights jumped to over 93% in March, up from around 80% a year earlier.Korean Air reported a 47% operating income surge in its first-quarter estimated results, with European passenger revenue rising almost a fifth from last year.Meanwhile, Qantas said it had adjusted its operations to capture the shift, redeploying capacity from U.S. and domestic routes.And Cathay Pacific said the strong demand was expected to continue through April, fueled by Easter travel and increased long-haul bookings that transit in Hong Kong.Before the conflict in the Middle East, Gulf carriers Emirates, Etihad and Qatar Airways accounted for about a third of Asia-Europe traffic, according to aviation data firm Cirium.They also carried more than half of all passengers flying from Europe to Australia, New Zealand and Pacific Islands.Though the trio have been restoring operations following the initial disruption, they are still far from operating at full capacity. Bank of America analysts said that Asian carriers could see tight pricing and share gains on Asia-Europe routes persist for up to 12 months even after war ends.

- Are Investors Undervaluing Cathay Pacific Airways (CPCAY) Right Now?
Apr 14, 2026
Here at Zacks, we focus on our proven ranking system, which places an emphasis on earnings estimates and estimate revisions, to find winning stocks. But we also understand that investors develop their own strategies, so we are constantly looking at the latest trends in value, growth, and momentum to find strong companies for our readers.
Of these, perhaps no stock market trend is more popular than value investing, which is a strategy that has proven to be successful in all sorts of market environments. Value investors use a variety of methods, including tried-and-true valuation metrics, to find these stocks.
On top of the Zacks Rank, investors can also look at our innovative Style Scores system to find stocks with specific traits. For example, value investors will want to focus on the "Value" category. Stocks with high Zacks Ranks and "A" grades for Value will be some of the highest-quality value stocks on the market today.
One company value investors might notice is Cathay Pacific Airways (CPCAY). CPCAY is currently sporting a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy) and an A for Value. The stock has a Forward P/E ratio of 7.9. This compares to its industry's average Forward P/E of 12.31. Over the last 12 months, CPCAY's Forward P/E has been as high as 9.84 and as low as 5.56, with a median of 7.92.
Another notable valuation metric for CPCAY is its P/B ratio of 1.32. The P/B is a method of comparing a stock's market value to its book value, which is defined as total assets minus total liabilities. This company's current P/B looks solid when compared to its industry's average P/B of 2.63. CPCAY's P/B has been as high as 1.51 and as low as 0.83, with a median of 1.27, over the past year.
These are just a handful of the figures considered in Cathay Pacific Airways's great Value grade. Still, they help show that the stock is likely being undervalued at the moment. Add this to the strength of its earnings outlook, and we can clearly see that CPCAY is an impressive value stock right now.
