B.P. Marsh & Partners (AIM:BPM)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: B.P. Marsh & Partners PLC is a private equity and venture capital firm that focuses on investments ranging from startups to more developed early-stage and SME businesses, with a market cap of £243.20 million.

Operations: B.P. Marsh & Partners PLC generates revenue from the provision of consultancy services and trading investments in financial services, amounting to £62.70 million.

Dividend Yield: 5.3%

B.P. Marsh & Partners has proposed a dividend of 6.98 pence per share, pending shareholder approval, with payment scheduled for July 31, 2026. The company's dividend yield is among the top quartile in the UK market but has been volatile over the past decade and isn't covered by free cash flow. Recent share buyback plans could potentially enhance shareholder value, while its low payout ratio indicates dividends are well-covered by earnings despite lacking free cash flow coverage.

Fresnillo (LSE:FRES)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: Fresnillo plc is a company focused on the mining, development, and production of non-ferrous minerals in Mexico, with a market cap of £23.04 billion.

Operations: Fresnillo plc's revenue is primarily derived from its operations at Herradura ($1.39 billion), Saucito ($1.35 billion), Juanicipio ($1.28 billion), Fresnillo ($1.02 billion), SAN Julian ($707.24 million), Cienega ($312.90 million), and Noche Buena ($65.86 million).

Dividend Yield: 3%

Fresnillo's dividend yield of 3.03% is below the UK market's top quartile, and its dividends have been volatile over the past decade. Despite this, recent earnings growth and a low payout ratio of 49% suggest dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flow (42%). The company announced a higher interim dividend following strong first-half profits in 2026, aligning with its policy despite historically unstable payouts.

ME Group International (LSE:MEGP)

Simply Wall St Dividend Rating: ★★★★☆☆

Overview: ME Group International plc operates automated instant-service equipment in the United Kingdom and has a market cap of £472.05 million.

Operations: ME Group International plc generates revenue primarily from its Personal Services segment, amounting to £315.92 million.

Dividend Yield: 6.9%

ME Group International's dividend yield of 6.86% ranks in the top 25% of UK payers, yet its dividends are not well covered by cash flows, with a high cash payout ratio of 190.8%. Recent earnings show slight declines, and the interim dividend decreased by 6.5%, reflecting volatility over the past decade. Despite trading at a significant discount to fair value and completing a £2.7 million share buyback, dividend reliability remains uncertain due to unstable payouts and non-cash earnings influence.
