Income investors put their money in stocks that pay out regular, predictable dividends.
These dividends form a stream of passive income that can supplement your earned income.
They also provide you with much-needed cash to sustain your lifestyle during your retirement years.
Here are four Singapore stocks that are paying out dividends next month.
Elite UK REIT (SGX: MXNU)
Elite UK REIT owns a portfolio of mostly freehold properties in the UK that are located near town centres with nearby amenities and transportation nodes.
Its tenants include the Department for Work and Pensions and other government departments. The portfolio has a total asset value of £416 million.
For the first quarter of 2025 (1Q 2025), revenue rose 0.6% year on year to £9.3 million.
Net property income jumped 24.4% year on year to £10.4 million, mainly because of a one-off dilapidation settlement and lease surrender premium received by the REIT.
Distribution per unit (DPU) increased by 9.6% year on year to £0.0076.
Earlier this month, Elite UK REIT announced a £9.2 million acquisition of three government-leased properties.
This acquisition helps to diversify the REIT’s portfolio with the inclusion of a new tenant – the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA).
The purchase is also expected to increase the REIT’s pro forma DPU by 0.6%.
To fund the acquisition, Elite UK REIT conducted a private placement of units at £0.295 per unit to raise around £4 million.
An advanced DPU of around £0.0142 will be paid out on 25 July 2025.
Far East Orchard (SGX: O10)
Far East Orchard is a real estate company with a lodging platform that derives recurring income from a diversified portfolio of properties.
The group’s hospitality arm owns more than 10 assets and manages over 100 properties in various countries across 10 distinct brands.
Far East Orchard reported a mixed set of earnings for 2024, with revenue rising 4.5% year on year to S$191.9 million.
Net profit, however, dipped by 10.6% year on year to S$59 million.
The real estate company recommended a total dividend of S$0.05 for 2024, which includes a S$0.01 special dividend from capital recycling.
The dividend offers both cash and scrip options, and if shareholders elect to receive cash, they will be paid on 4 July.
For 1Q 2025, the group reported a mixed set of earnings once again.
Revenue fell by 8.6% year on year to S$46.5 million, but net profit more than doubled year on year to S$17.3 million.
Net profit for the quarter was boosted by a one-off gain of S$9.2 million from the acquisition of an additional interest in a property, Woods Square.
Kimly (SGX: 1D0)
Kimly is one of the largest traditional coffee shop operators in Singapore and operates and manages a network of 88 food outlets, 179 food stalls, 11 restaurants, and four Tenderfresh kiosks around Singapore.
For the first half of fiscal 2025 (1H FY2025) ending 31 March 2025, Kimly reported a 0.5% year-on-year increase in revenue to S$159.3 million.
Gross profit, however, shrank by 0.8% year on year to S$43.8 million as gross margin contracted from 27.8% to 27.5%.
The coffee shop operator’s net profit came in at S$14.8 million for 1H FY2025, down 15.6% year on year.
Kimly also generated a positive free cash flow of S$32.6 million for the half-year.
The group declared an interim dividend of S$0.01, which will be paid on 15 July.
Management pointed out several initiatives this year to increase the group’s market presence.
Kimly entered into a short-term HDB lease for a coffee shop located in Toa Payoh back in February.
And in April, the group completed the acquisition of a coffee shop at Serangoon Central.
However, management also warned of business challenges caused by ongoing inflation and weaker sentiment from Trump’s tariffs.
UMS Integration (SGX: 558)
UMS Integration provides equipment manufacturing and engineering services to original equipment manufacturers of semiconductors and related products.
For 1Q 2025, revenue rose 7% year on year to S$57.7 million.
Net profit, however, stayed flat year on year at S$9.8 million.
The business also eked out a small positive free cash flow of S$400,000 for the quarter.
An interim dividend of S$0.01 was proposed, slightly lower than the S$0.012 paid out in the prior year.
This dividend will be paid on 24 July.
Management is encouraged by the strong order flow from its key new customer, which is seeking to divert its US supply source to Asia.
Also, fab equipment spending is projected to increase by 2% year on year to US$110 billion for 2025, marking the sixth consecutive year of increase.
For 2026, equipment spending is projected to rise further, with around 50 new fabs coming online within these two years.
Meanwhile, UMS Integration has received approval from Bursa Malaysia for a secondary listing of its shares on the Malaysian stock exchange.
This dual listing will help to broaden the group’s shareholder base.
