Top Asian Dividend Stocks To Consider In June 2025

Dividend Yield: 3.2%

Sumitomo Electric Industries offers dividend potential with a low payout ratio of 39%, ensuring dividends are well-covered by earnings and cash flows. Recent increases in dividend payments, such as JPY 61 per share for the fiscal year ended March 2025, contrast with historical volatility and an expected decrease to JPY 50 per share by March 2026. Despite trading below fair value, its unstable dividend history and volatile stock price may concern income-focused investors.
