I checked a couple FY reports from 2014 till now. EPS is typically 30 to 40, and the Div Per Share is typically below the EPS from what I saw. Are you mistakenly looking at a wrong figure like franking credit percent perhaps?
It is possible for a company to occasionally pay out a higher DPS then EPS, because they may have a lot of spare cash, or use debt, or because they had an outlier year of lower EPS and expect EPS to increase in future to make up for it.
I got stopped out of crown for a small profit. Business seems pretty good but I think the risks are lower VIP gaming, the Barangaroo project and the new Melbourne high-rise project (over budget and/or lower than expected revenue).
