While it’s possible to pay dividends through debt or by selling capital, mature and stable companies will generally never need to do that. That’s why dividends tend to be better indicators of a company’s health than most financial reports.
Kahit posibleng magbayad ng dibidendo gamit pangungutang o sa pagbebenta ng ari-arian, ang mga matatanda at stable na kumpanya ay madalas hindi kakailanganing gawin ito. Yun ang dahilan kung bakit ang dibidendo ay mas-mabuting tigaturo ng lagay ng kumpanya kaysa sa ibang financial reports.
