17 Ideal 'Safer' Buyable August Dogs Dug Up After 10 Years

Seeking Alpha · 28 Aug 2026positive

An analysis of 89 top Ten-Year Collected Dividend Dogs highlighted 17 "safer" buyable dividend stocks that meet the ideal of annual dividends from a $1,000 investment exceeding the share price. The ten-year top dividend dogs project average net gains of 39.61% by August 2027 with risk profiles generally below market volatility.

Why it matters — MATW watchers would care because Matthews International may be evaluated among these dividend dogs based on yield, free cash flow coverage, and income-generating safety criteria.

Seeking Alpha · 8 Aug 2026negative

Matthews International cut its fiscal 2026 EBITDA guidance by 10% to $158–$162 million, citing restructuring costs and delayed synergies in Propelis, while industrial tech revenues remain under pressure from legal disputes.

Why it matters — The lowered guidance and ongoing legal disputes signal continued near-term headwinds for Matthews International, particularly in its DBE (industrial technology) segment.

MarketBeat · 7 Aug 2026negative

Matthews International reported a fiscal 2026 third-quarter net loss of $23.7 million, or $0.75 per share, versus net income of $15.4 million, or $0.49 per share, in the prior-year quarter. The company attributed the decline to delays in engineering orders, higher input costs, and slower-than-expected synergy capture at Propelis.
