Dividend Safety Rating
CPT's dividend appears safe and well-supported. Strengths include a 45.3% ffo payout ratio & 43.6% cfo payout ratio. Areas of concern: 124.8% fcf payout ratio & 0.1x current ratio. 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.
