Kemper Corporation (NYSE:KMPR) has declared a dividend of $0.32 per share payable on March 3rd, representing an annual yield of 3.7%. Despite a past decline in EPS, the dividend appears well-covered by current earnings, with next year's payout ratio projected to be a sustainable 19%. While the company has a stable dividend track record, future growth potential is viewed with caution due to historical EPS declines, though earnings are forecast to rise in the coming year.

Kemper Corporation's shares dropped 13% after its full-year report, as statutory earnings per share missed analyst forecasts by 25%, despite revenues being in line with estimates. Following these results, analysts have provided a weaker revenue outlook and a minor downgrade to EPS estimates for 2026, though the consensus price target remains unchanged at US$60.25. The company's revenues are expected to flatten by 2026, which would be an improvement compared to the past five years of decline, yet still slower than the broader industry.

Kemper Corp (KMPR) stock has fallen to a new 52-week low of $30.58, representing a 56% decline over the past year. This downturn follows the company's Q4 earnings, which significantly missed analyst expectations for both earnings per share ($0.25 vs. $0.90 projected) and revenue ($1.13 billion vs. $1.19 billion projected), primarily due to challenges in its specialty auto business. Citizens downgraded Kemper's stock rating, noting that a substantial improvement in financial performance may take several quarters.
