How we calculate this

The score ranges from 0 to 100. Five factors are weighted: payout ratio (25), free cash flow coverage (25), leverage — net debt / EBITDA (20), increase streak (15), and yield signal — current vs. 5-year average yield (15).

Thresholds are sector-specific. REITs, utilities and banks use different benchmarks because they structurally have higher payout ratios or leverage.

Important: no model can predict dividend cuts. The score shows the factors that historically preceded cuts — it's an aid, not a substitute for your own research.
