Last week Deterra Royalties (DRR) released its FY22 financial results that exceeded our expectations. The highlights are:-
- Record Ming Area C (MAC) production of 111M Wet Metric Tonnes (WMT)
- Record revenue of $265M, up 83% on FY21
- $46M in capacity payments
- Net Profit After Tax of $178M
The main reason for opening this position was for the dividend, so we were pleasantly surprised when with a dividend of 22.08 cents. The ex-dividend date is 25th August, with a payment on the 21st of September.
Grossing up the dividend yield to consider franking credits, the yield on just this dividend is 7.26% taking our total dividend yield to 14.9%.
With MAC still ramping up to full production of around 150M WMT, even if the iron ore price continues to fall, we believe the dividend yield can be maintained in the future. This is why DRR remains one of the best dividend plays in the resource sector.
