Value Stocks with High Dividends Yields in Qatar

What if a stock trades below its book value and still offers a dividend yield above 7%?

As of 1 October 2026, several stocks on the Qatar Stock Exchange offer this combination. Here are top

five stocks with a price-to-book (P/B) ratio below 1x and a dividend yield exceeding 7%.

Qatar National Cement (QNCD) offers the highest dividend yield among the five at 9.20%, with a P/B

ratio of 0.55x. Barwa Real Estate (BRES) has the lowest P/B at 0.35x, alongside an 8.79% dividend yield.

Salam International (SIIS) follows with a P/B of 0.50x and an 8.36% yield. Commercial Bank (CBQK) and

Aamal Company (AHCS) round out the selection, offering dividend yields of 7.56% and 7.53%,

respectively.

But what do these numbers actually mean?

A P/B below 1x means a company's market value is lower than its reported book value, which represents

its assets minus liabilities. Dividend yield measures its annual dividend relative to the current share

price.

For investors in Qatar looking for both value and income, these two metrics can be useful screening

tools.

However, trading below book value doesn't automatically make a stock undervalued, and a high

dividend yield doesn't guarantee future payments. Profitability, asset quality and dividend sustainability

still matter.
