ValueExpectations.com recently posted, “Dividends are falling, so stocks have less value?” which gave some insight on our thoughts on the effect dividends have on stock values. We concluded that dividends alone are irrelevant in estimating a company’s value.

We looked at several fundamental factors to flush out companies that may be at risk of reducing their dividend in the near future. The end result, was a list of companies with:

-High Management Quality
-High Valuation Score
-High Dividend Yield
