Servicing the debt should be easy, the debt due in 2015 was 10.7 mil in 2016 it was 8.6 mil so should be in the same region. I don't think CSV will try to pay down their debt anytime soon, like a lot of ASX listed companies that are trying to grow they will just pay their due debt. It's debt/equity ratio is 83% which is a little high but inline with many other top asx stocks. Long term debt is 44% of capital which is not bad.
The dividend should be paid from the NPAT, the underlying NPAT should be around 26 mil but will come in less after other expenses so the NPAT at a guess will be around 19 mil. The remaining dividend or share buy back will come from shareholders equity, currently at 274 mil.
I'm not an expert but that's how I understand it.
