Crazy Payout Ratios (-50% or 200%), What to Do?
About this episode
Payout ratios look simple… until they're not. Mike and Vero unpack why the classic "<80% = safe" rule can mislead you—especially when earnings get distorted, special dividends hit, or you're dealing with capital-intensive businesses.
You'll learn when the EPS payout ratio matters, when to switch to cash payout, DCF, or FFO/AFFO, and how to read "ugly" numbers like negative or 200% payouts without panicking.
