Barron's eighth annual (2025) ranking of sustainable companies started with the 1,000 largest publicly traded companies by market value, then ranked each by performance for five key constituencies: shareholders, employees, customers, community, and planet. Top-yielding sustainable stocks like Avient, Interpublic, and Campbell's offer attractive net gain potential, with average analyst-estimated returns of 26.26% for the top ten. Seventeen dividend payers show negative free cash flow margins, signaling caution; only three 'safer' stocks—Campbell's, Regions Financial, and Hormel—meet the ideal dividend-to-price ratio.
