With supply constraints and myriad other issues, semiconductor stocks have had a rough go of it in 2022. But many of the companies still generate gobs of cash flow, which should continue in the foreseeable future. Broadcom (Nasdaq: AVGO) provides semiconductors, fiber optics and software to a wide variety of industries. The San Jose, California-based company pays a 3.2% dividend yield. But with the recent struggles in the industry, can Broadcom shareholders rely on the dividend? Broadcom's free cash flow growth is impressive, and that is expected to continue as free cash flow is forecast to rise 26% this year and another 7% next year. Meanwhile, the tech giant is projected to pay out just $6.6 billion in dividends this year and $7.5 billion next year, for very comfortable payout ratios of just 39% and 41%, respectively. Broadcom currently pays a quarterly dividend of $4.10 per share, which comes out to a 3.2% yield. It has raised its dividend every year since 2011. |
