Jonathan Heller says this portfolio of under-followed names and what some would consider misfits is holding its own so far.
Double-Net Dividend stocks, which some would call misfits, doing OK so far.
Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 8/15/17, FreightCar America Inc will trade ex-dividend, for its quarterly dividend of $0.09, payable on 8/23/17. As a percentage of RAIL's recent stock price of $18.32, this dividend works out to approximately 0.49%.
Fitbit, FreightCar America and Vonage Holdings all got nice boosts from their latest earnings report.
In recent trading, shares of FreightCar America Inc have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $16.00, changing hands for $16.71/share. When a stock reaches the target an analyst has set, the analyst logically has two ways to react: downgrade on valuation, or, re-adjust their target price to a higher level.
The two downtrodden names are set to report second-quarter results after the close.
Jonathan Heller reports on his Double-Net Dividend portfolio, a mix of companies trading cheaply relative to net current assets that also return cash to shareholders.
Shareholders of FreightCar America Inc looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 2.1% annualized dividend yield can sell the December covered call at the $17.50 strike and collect the premium based on the $1.25 bid, which annualizes to an additional 19.2% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 21.3% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $17.50 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but RAIL shares would have to advance 4.4% from current levels for that to happen, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 11.9% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
Just two months after its creation, the portfolio handily is beating the Russell 2000 Index and Russell Microcap Index.
Joseph E. McNeely will leave the Company to pursue new opportunities
One might think that companies trading cheaply would not be dividend payers. But that’s not the case.
The list is dominated by retailers, of which there are four; that's unfortunate, given the pressure that sector is facing these days.
Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 5/16/17, FreightCar America Inc will trade ex-dividend, for its quarterly dividend of $0.09, payable on 5/24/17. As a percentage of RAIL's recent stock price of $17.34, this dividend works out to approximately 0.52%, so look for shares of FreightCar America Inc to trade 0.52% lower — all else being equal — when RAIL shares open for trading on 5/16/17.
In recent trading, shares of FreightCar America Inc have crossed above the average analyst 12-month target price of $15.33, changing hands for $15.78/share.

FreightCar America, Fitbit and Kulicke and Soffa turned in solid days yesterday, though the latter was bouncing back from a weak Wednesday.
Benchmark Electronics, FreightCar America, Kulicke & Soffa and AVX Corporation are on my radar as potential targets.
There are only a handful of names in my net/net cupboard, and one I wouldn't touch with a 10-foot pole.
