This is the second time I am initiating an acquisition this year and makes this purchase the 27th business I am vested in. It represents about 1.6% of my current portfolio. Though the big draw for me was solid fundamentals of the business and a special dividend this company declared. When properly calculated based on the purchase price, the special dividend and regular dividend comprise to be automatic return on the investment of 3% right off the bat. In other words, its like receiving 1 year and 3 months worth of dividend in just 3 months.
I purchased 12 shares for the price of $82.40 adding $24.96 to my annual income.
The 12-month dividend income increased to $2,191.
Thank you for reading & have a great day!
