(firmenpresse) - NEW YORK, NY -- (Marketwire) -- 06/01/12 -- Dividends have been gaining popularity among investors as treasury yields and interest rates are at record lows.

But a recent report released by Standard & Poor's states that telecom companies may have hard time maintaining their high yields. "Returning cash to shareholders through dividends and share buybacks and the pressure to satisfy equity investors lessens their ability to pay back debt and maintain or reduce leverage," said Standard & Poor's credit analyst Allyn Arden in the report. "These companies may need to adopt more conservative financial policies and reduce leverage to be able to maintain their current ratings down the line," added Mr. Arden.
