Gordon ReidPremium contentStockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly SHW is well positioned for the home improvement trend underway during the pandemic. Recent earnings reported a 28% increase in EPS and cash increased by over 40% to over $1 billion compared to last year. There was a slight slow down in their performance coatings division due to the pandemic, but consumer brands were up 21% in sales. The company guidance has increased its second half EPS outlook by 14%. We also like that the dividend payout ratio of less than 30% means safety in the dividend going forward. Yield 0.85%
