30% div cut
Not happy... they tried to slide it in the new release and pass it off as simple a quarterly release. Slimy...

Alaris has been overpaying for years. It's a silly business model that has barely been hanging on in good years and now has torpedoed shareholder equity. Dividend should have been cut by 70% which would still be close to a 5% yield.

At a 5% yield there are about 100 other companies i would invest in first. I believe the divy is the onpy reason people put money here. They have made some bad investments recently.

They had announced a lower dividend already... Here's what I wrote back at the end of march: "For now, it looks like they have 70% of the businesses still running. So the dividend will likely be something like $0.30 quarterly for now." Looks like I wasn't far from reality.

Given the state of the economy this is fantastic and at a 12% yield I will buy more. If all investments were paying the payout ratio would be less than 50%. Tell me another stock that has a less than 50% payout ratio and 12% yield.
