I highlight 15 dividend-paying stocks from Bloomberg's 50 Companies to Watch that meet my 'safer' criteria: free cash flow yields exceed dividend yields.

Five stocks - China Hongqiao, ITV, Vodacom, Subsea 7, and Advanced Info - stand out as 'ideal' for income investors, combining safety and attractive yield-to-price ratios.

Top ten dividend dogs offer estimated average net gains of 21.33% for the coming year, but investors should beware of cash-poor stocks with negative free cash flow margins.
