Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
Inspired Entertainment, Inc. is a global business-to-business gaming technology company that develops and supplies digital gaming content, systems, virtual sports products, and interactive gaming solutions for regulated betting, gaming, and lottery markets. The company operates across multiple segments of the gaming industry, including land-based gaming machines, online casino gaming, sports betting, and virtual sports entertainment. Inspired generates revenue primarily through gaming machine placements, software licensing, recurring content distribution agreements, managed services, and revenue-sharing arrangements with gaming and betting operators.
The company traces its origins to businesses formed in the United Kingdom gaming and amusement sector and later expanded through acquisitions and technology integration into a broader international gaming platform provider. Inspired became publicly traded in the United States following a merger transaction involving a special purpose acquisition company in 2016. The company has positioned itself as a cross-platform content and technology supplier with strengths in virtual sports, server-based gaming systems, and omnichannel gaming content distributed across retail, mobile, and online environments.
