Dividend Safety Rating
AMH's dividend appears safe and well-supported. Strengths include a 65.6% ffo payout ratio & 43.0% cfo payout ratio. Areas of concern: 6.9% return on equity. The dividend has been growing at a 43.10% 5-year CAGR. As a REIT, its payout is measured against FFO (funds from operations) rather than net income, since large non-cash depreciation makes the earnings payout ratio misleading.
