Another good large cap company with recent dividend growth is AFLAC (AFL). The company is also low leveraged and has a good long-term business growth. The recent dividend hike of 6.1 percent was not as high as it should be but still high enough to compensate inflation costs. The payout ratio at the new level amounts to 25.64 percent. Regard the low geographical diversification. The company is a big insurer in Japan. 77.46 percent of sales are generated in Asia/Pacific and 25.54 percent in Americas.
Here are my favorite stocks with fast dividend growth: AFLAC Inc. (AFL), The Hershey Company (HSY), V.F. Corp. (VFC) and Visa (V).
