Just been looking at this stock and conducting some research
Excuse me if this sounds newbie (I'm new to investing after all)
But I'm very worried/put off by the fact that LTC has a dividend payout ratio of over 100% since 2007.
Surely this isn't good/sustainable?
I'm aware of the EPS growth over this period and the forecast for next year, I just can't see the dividend increases keeping up with earnings.
Am I right or is there something I'm missing here?
Please educate me!
Thanks
Lewys
