Kraft Heinz: A Rare Combination of Safety and Yield 

Marc Lichtenfeld, Chief Income Strategist, The Oxford Club

When I look at many of the brands owned by Kraft Heinz (Nasdaq: KHC), it takes me back to my childhood: Cool Whip, Kool-Aid, Jell-O, Kraft Singles, Oscar Mayer, and, of course, Kraft Mac & Cheese, a staple in the diet of nearly every kid born between 1950 and today.

It’s a tougher market for Kraft Heinz now than when I was growing up. Today, store brands compete strongly with national brands. They’re cheaper and often just as good.

Among Kraft’s lineup of brands, the only ones I go out of my way to buy are Heinz ketchup and Philadelphia Cream Cheese.

Fortunately for the company and its shareholders, I’m not the only consumer out there. Kraft Heinz posted nearly $25 billion in revenue last year. That’s a lot of Maxwell House coffee and A1 steak sauce.

In fact, 94% of U.S. households buy Kraft Heinz products.

But unfortunately for shareholders, the stock has been as popular as the watery liquid that comes out when you first open a bottle of ketchup. It’s lost 28% over the past year and is down 46% since May 1, 2023. The last time the stock price was this low was during the COVID Crash.

The company has kept its dividend steady at $0.40 since 2019, so the declining stock price has pushed its yield up to a gigantic 7.2%.

Can shareholders rely on that dividend like Stove Top stuffing? Or will it spoil like Lunchables that have been left out in the sun?

The Tiny Stock with the Millionaire-Making Playbook

Nvidia… Amazon… Netflix… Their biggest gains have come and gone.

If you missed out on those, the greatest legacy they’ve left for you is their playbook… so you can follow along the next time it plays out.

Folks, that time has arrived.

And Alexander Green would know. He identified ALL of those companies early on. Now he’s zeroed in on his next one… a little company with AI technology that could soon change the world. He’s targeting 4,700% in the next decade. Details HERE.

Despite its woes, Kraft Heinz has been steadily growing its free cash flow.

Last year, free cash flow grew 16% to $3.7 billion, and it is expected to grow another nearly 17% this year to $4.3 billion.View larger image

In 2025, Kraft Heinz paid shareholders $1.9 billion in dividends, or 52% of its free cash flow. This year, that dividend figure is expected to be nearly identical for a payout ratio of 44%, so Kraft Heinz can afford its dividend.

The only stain on the company’s record is a dividend cut in 2019. Prior to the current $0.40 quarterly dividend, Kraft Heinz paid shareholders $0.625 per quarter.

It really needed to slash the dividend at that point, because the amount it was paying in dividends was consistently exceeding free cash flow. But ever since it reduced the dividend, the company has been generating more cash than it pays out.

Before I reveal Kraft Heinz’s dividend safety rating… what grade would you give it? How confident are you that it won’t cut the dividend again?

I was born on 6 August 1956 in San Francisco, California to Janet and (the late) Richard Hovis. I grew up in Santa Monica, California where I attended elementary, junior high school, and high school (graduating in 1974), in addition to involvement in sports and recreation (Little League +, the Boy’s Club ++). Further, it was in elementary school – St. Augustine’s By-the -Sea Parish School that I found, and made the choice to truly journey with God. I attended Arizona State University from 1974 to 1977 – seeking to become an architect, however, I was not accepted, and, as such, I graduated with a Liberal Arts degree. Upon graduation from Arizona State University, I attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and studied City and Regional Planning at the Master’s level. I successfully completed one (1) year in a two (2) year program – I did not complete the Master’s degree in City and Regional Planning – due to personal reasons. I returned to Santa Monica where I started (October 1979) my career as graphic designer with Exxon Company, USA. I spent five years with Exxon Company, USA. While working with Exxon Company, USA I was accepted into architectural school – Sci-Arc in Southern California, however, I did not attend preferring to stay with Exxon.. In 1982 I married Laura Flosi and in April 1983 we had our one and only child – Lauren Alain Hovis – a gift from God. We moved to Phoenix, Arizona in 1984 from Los Angeles, where I went to work as a graphic designer with Kitchell CEM (from 1985 -1987). From 1987 – 1995 I was an independent contractor, and a registered representative in mortgage finance, financial management, graphic design, and drafting. Further, I attended the University of Phoenix and successfully obtained a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in 1982. I was also a member of the Scottsdale Jaycees, where I became very involved in community events and projects. In 1994, I accepted a cartography position with the Defense Mapping Agency in Reston, Virginia. As such, I relocated from Phoenix to Reston. In 1998, I was accepted and worked as a Visual Information Officer with the Central Intelligence Agency. In 2002, I worked as a Support Officer until my retirement (due to a need for shoulder surgery) in September 2018. Away from my Federal Government service, I have been involved in various organizations and activities in Northern Virginia. In November of 2011, I married Rebecca Ouellette in Santa Monica, California. I reside in San Tan Valley, AZ with my two hamster - Jess and Timothy, our fish, our lizard - RJ Lizard., and our cats - Pearl and Grey. As to hobbies, I enjoy playing sports, attending sporting events, mentoring individuals from financial management to hamsters, building models, photography, travel, multimedia design, managing partner for RJ Hamster, and jazz – smooth jazz to a samba or a bossa nova. Love and God Bless, Peter – aka RJ Hamster Jo hi
