Dividend cut recovery
Emergence
Dividend has been restored or increased after a previous cut while business fundamentals have recovered. When dividend recovery signals are present, free cash flow has been consistently positive, and revenue has grown, the company has rebuilt its dividend capacity from a position of business strength.
Limits
This story identifies recovery trajectory, not sustained dividend guarantee. It does not claim the dividend is safe, predict future increases, or guarantee the recovery will hold. Companies that have cut once can cut again.

Explanation
Each signal represents an independent observation about dividend recovery: Dividend Cut Recovery detects that the company has restored or increased its dividend after a previous reduction. This indicates a willingness to return capital after a period of conservation. FCF Positive (3Y) measures sustained free cash flow. Consistent cash generation indicates the business can support the restored dividend. Revenue Growing (3Y) measures sustained revenue growth. Business expansion provides the foundation for continued dividend capacity. When all three align, they describe a dividend rebuilding from strength—not a premature restoration before the business has recovered.
Interpretation
This story identifies recovery characteristics, not dividend safety. It does not guarantee the dividend, predict future increases, or assess sustainability. Past cuts and recoveries do not determine future policy.
