when markets turn volatile.\n\nFor dividend investors, a company’s ability to maintain payouts through thick and thin often comes down to one thing: the strength of its balance sheet. \n\nStocks with substantial net cash positions can weather downturns, fund growth, and keep dividends flowing without resorting to debt.\n\nHere are three Singapore stocks sitting on healthy cash piles while offering dividend yields above 5%.\n\nGenting Singapore (SGX: G13)\nGenting Singapore operates Resorts World Sentosa (RWS), one of Singapore’s two integrated resorts featuring a casino, Universal Studios Singapore, hotels, restaurants, and attractions. \n\nThe company holds a duopoly position in Singapore’s gaming market alongside Marina Bay Sands, with its casino license renewed through 2036.\n\nWhat stands out is the company’s fortress balance sheet.\n\nAs of 30 June 2025, Genting maintained S$3.3 billion in cash with zero debt. \n\nThis war chest is all the more impressive given the company is in the midst of its multi-billion dollar RWS 2.0 transformation – yet it is self-financing the expansion without taking on leverage.\n\nFor income investors, the strong financial position underpins a 5.5% dividend yield at the current share price of S$0.73.\n\nThe underlying business is also recovering after a weak first half. \n\nFor the third quarter of 2025 (3Q2025), revenue jumped 16% year on year (YoY) to S$649.8 million. \n\nGaming revenue was the primary driver, surging 22% to S$402.3 million, while non-gaming revenue rose 7% to S$247.3 million, supported by new attractions including the Singapore Oceanarium and WEAVE lifestyle precinct.\n\nNet profit climbed 19% YoY to S$94.6 million, while Adjusted EBITDA surged 36% to S$222.7 million. \n\nThe EBITDA margin expanded to 34.3% from 29.2% a year ago, indicating improving operational efficiency as new facilities gain traction.\n\nLooking ahead, the opening of The Laurus luxury hotel in October 2025 further expanded premium hospitality offerings, while major developments including the 88-metre Waterfront sculpture and Super Nintendo World remain on track.\n\nVenture Corporation (SGX: V03)\nVenture Corporation is a provider of technology solutions to over 100 global companies across domains including life sciences, test and measurement instrumentation, semiconductor equipment, hyperscale data centres, and lifestyle consumer products.\n\nFor dividend investors, the headline numbers may look soft, but the cash flow tells a different story.\n\nVenture’s balance sheet remains robust with a net cash position exceeding S$1.0 billion as at 30 September 2025. \n\nNotably, this figure is after paying dividends and conducting share buybacks, demonstrating that shareholder returns aren’t depleting the company’s war chest.\n\nThe group generated operating cash flow of S$189.6 million for the first nine months of 2025, improving by S$94.8 million YoY. \n\nThis cash generation supported a combined dividend of S$0.30 per share for the first half of 2025, comprising an interim dividend of S$0.25 and a special dividend of S$0.05.\n\nAt S$15.56, shares offer a 5.1% dividend yield.\n\nRevenue for 3Q2025 fell 2.8% quarter on quarter (QoQ) to S$627.2 million, reflecting expected softness in the lifestyle consumer domain. \n\nNet profit declined 3% QoQ to S$55.6 million, though the group maintained a strong net margin of 8.9%.\n\nThe revenue performance varied across portfolios. \n\nPortfolio A, heavily weighted towards lifestyle consumer products, fell 10.5% QoQ to S$222.0 million. \n\nThe decline stemmed from Venture’s R&D contributions improving product reliability for a key customer, which reduced replacement volumes – a short-term revenue hit for a long-term relationship win.\n\nPortfolio B rose 2.0% QoQ to S$405.0 million, driven by new wins in test and measurement instrumentation and semiconductor equipment.\n\n\nThe future looks promising as Venture is ramping up hyperscale data centre activities, including network connectivity solutions for 2026. \n\nThe group is also rolling out new products for life science instruments, capturing market share in test equipment, and securing wins in building automation.\n\nSBS Transit (SGX: S61)\nSBS Transit operates Singapore’s Northeast Line and Downtown Line, alongside multiple bus packages across the island. \n\nThe group’s business is split between public transport services, which generate the bulk of revenue through government service fees and fare income, and other commercial services including advertising.\n\nFor income seekers, SBS Transit offers an attractive 7.4% trailing dividend yield at S$3.20, excluding its 2024 special dividend. \n\nThe yield is supported by S$349.2 million in cash and short-term deposits as at September 2025.\n\nHowever, the operational picture requires closer examination.\n\nRevenue slipped 2.4% YoY to S$386.5 million for 3Q2025. \n\nNet profit declined more sharply, dropping 20.6% YoY to S$14.5 million.\n\nThe revenue decline reflects the loss of the Jurong West bus package from September 2024, coupled with lower fuel indexation. \n\nHigher rail fare revenue and advertising income partially offset these headwinds. \n\nDespite lower revenue, operating costs fell by S$7.3 million due mainly to lower fuel and electricity costs, though this was partly eroded by higher staff costs.\n\nOn the operational front, average daily ridership improved across both rail lines. \n\nThe Northeast Line saw ridership climb 3.8%YoY to 625,000, while the Downtown Line recorded 490,000 daily passengers, up 1.4% YoY. \n\nGrowing ridership bodes well for the rail segment’s contribution.\n\nThat said, income investors should note a significant headwind on the horizon. \n\nSBS Transit failed to retain the Tampines bus package in the recent tender (set to transfer out from 5 July 2026), which will further pressure the group’s bus operations revenue following the earlier Jurong West loss. \n\nThe 7.4% yield is enticing, but dividend sustainability will depend on whether rail growth can offset the structural erosion in bus operations.\n\nGet Smart: Cash Provides Options\nA high dividend yield means little if the company lacks the financial strength to sustain it.\n\nWhat sets these three stocks apart is their combination of attractive yields and substantial cash reserves. \n\nGenting’s S$3.3 billion war chest funds a major transformation while supporting a 5.5% yield. \n\nVenture’s S$1.0 billion net cash remains intact even after dividends and buybacks. \n\nSBS Transit’s S$349.2 million provides a buffer as the business navigates operational headwinds.\n\nA strong balance sheet buys time and flexibility—but ultimately, dividends flow from profits.\n\nImagine a life where steady income flows, no matter the market.
