Shareholders of Greenhill & Co Inc looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 1% annualized dividend yield can sell the September covered call at the $20 strike and collect the premium based on the $1.70 bid, which annualizes to an additional 13.3% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 14.3% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $20 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but GHL shares would have to climb 3.6% from current levels for that to occur, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 12.4% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
