| If You're Hungry For a Hearty Yield with Steady Dividends, This Restaurant Stock Delivers |
|
| If reliable income is on your menu, this restaurant stock is worth a closer look. | With a generous yield and a focus on rewarding shareholders, it serves up steady payouts even when the market slows. | | Keep This Stock Ticker on Your Watchlist | | They're a private company, but Pacaso just reserved the Nasdaq ticker "$PCSO." | No surprise the same firms that backed Uber, eBay, and Venmo already invested in Pacaso. What is unique is Pacaso is giving the same opportunity to everyday investors. And 10,000+ people have already joined them. | Created a former Zillow exec who sold his first venture for $120M, Pacaso brings co-ownership to the $1.3T vacation home industry. | They've generated $1B+ worth of luxury home transactions across 2,000+ owners. That's good for more than $110M in gross profit since inception, including 41% YoY growth last year alone. | And you can join them today for just $2.90/share. But don't wait too long. Invest in Pacaso before the opportunity ends September 18. | Invest While You Still Can | Paid advertisement for Pacaso's Regulation A offering. Read the offering circular at invest.pacaso.com. Reserving a ticker symbol is not a guarantee that the company will go public. Listing on the NASDAQ is subject to approvals. | | | Picture this: you're getting a cheque every quarter while families keep showing up for pancakes and late-night wings. That's Dine Brands Global (NYSE: DIN) in a nutshell. | With names like Applebee's and IHOP under its belt, it's a casual dining heavyweight that keeps the tills ringing and dividends flowing. | If you want your portfolio to serve up income while staying steady, DIN is worth a closer look. | The company has shown it can weather shifting consumer trends, and its dividend yield, sitting in the top 15% of the market, is hard to ignore. | Add in a mix of post-pandemic recovery, disciplined capital management, and a clear focus on rewarding shareholders, and DIN looks like a strong candidate for income investors who also like a little growth potential on the side. |

| | | | A Franchise Business with Steady Cash Flow | Dine Brands isn't a household name itself, but its restaurants are. Applebee's, IHOP, and now Fuzzy's Taco Shop give it a wide reach across the casual dining space. | Most locations are franchised (over 3,500 of them), which means franchisees put up the investment while DIN collects steady cash flows and keeps the brands consistent. | Latest earnings? Revenue for Q2 2025 came in at $230.8 million, up almost 12% year-on-year. Net income slipped to $13.2 million from $22.5 million, a miss versus expectations. | Applebee's held strong with nearly 5% sales growth, while IHOP took a hit with sales down 2.3%. | The headline isn't perfect, but the cash flow story remains intact, and that's what matters when it comes to collecting those dividends. | DIN's quarterly dividend currently yields north of 8%. That's big, especially when Treasury yields and other so-called "safe" options can't match it. | Strategic moves, such as dual-branded Applebee's/IHOP locations and innovative menu experiments (IHOP's Anytime Tacos, for example), are designed to keep customers engaged and traffic flowing. | Action: Sure, earnings volatility can rattle nerves. But the bigger picture is that Dine Brands throws off reliable cash and keeps paying shareholders.
If you're a long-term income investor, this is a name to watch, especially if short-term softness in IHOP or consumer spending lets you buy in cheaper and lock in an even higher yield. |

| | Serving Up a Generous Yield | At $0.51 per share quarterly, you're looking at an 8%+ yield. That's generous compared to most of the restaurant space. | The franchised model helps ensure a steady stream of cash regardless of individual restaurant swings, and ongoing brand innovation supports sustainability. | Dual-branding and menu refreshes aren't just gimmicks; they're smart plays to extend reach and keep the dividend secure. | Action: If yield is your priority, DIN deserves a slot on your watchlist. Buying during market or consumer spending dips could mean juicing your effective yield while leaning on a resilient, cash-generating model. |

| | Could Conditions Turn Sour? | Not all is syrup and smiles. IHOP's sales slipped last quarter, and Applebee's strength came mostly from promotions, which is not ideal for long-term growth. | Add $1B+ of debt, and flexibility starts looking tight. That generous dividend? | It's great when cash is flowing, but free cash has been bumpy, and rising food or labor costs could cramp margins. Translation: the payout could get tested if conditions sour. |

| | Buying Yield with A Side Order of Potential | So, here's the deal: DIN isn't a sleepy, set-and-forget dividend stock. What it offers is a chunky yield and a shot at upside from smart growth initiatives. | Those dual-branded restaurants and menu experiments could turn into meaningful drivers if executed well. If you're an income hunter, DIN brings high yield with some spice. | Just pair it with more defensive holdings to smooth out the bumps. Think of it as buying yield with a side order of growth potential. | | That's all for today's edition of the Dividend Brief.
