Every New York stock exchange trading day I’m posting a daily dividend stock or fund review. I’ll share the three chief qualities of just one equity or fund that could be selected for a dividend stock portfolio I’ve named the Safari to Sweet Success.

This week my Safari portfolio seeks a company in the communication services sector.

That sector has companies that connect us electronically in either of two ways: telecommunications, or pay TV. 

Today I’m reviewing another telecom services company named Intouch Holdings PLC. Its trading ticker symbol is INTHY. 

Intouch Holdings PCL is an investment holding company. It is engaged in the satellite, internet, telecommunications and media and advertising businesses. The company generates the majority of its revenue in Thailand.

The company was formerly known as Shin Corporation Public Company Limited and changed its name to Intouch Holdings Public Company Limited in March 2014. Intouch Holdings Public Company Limited was founded in 1983 and is headquartered in Bangkok, Thailand.

I use three primary keys to gauge dividend equities or funds like Intouch Holdings PCL (INTHY): 

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

INTHY Price

Intouch Holdings’s price at yesterday’s market close was $7.25 per share. The company has made money for investors. A year ago its price was $6.03. Meaning it’s a gained  $1.22 per share in the past year. If INTHY does the same in 2018 its price will increase from that $7.25 to $8.47 per share or about 17%.

INTHY Dividends

Intouch Holdings’s most recent variable semi-annual dividend was $0.15 declared in August and paid out September 15th.  

The annual dividend for 2018 is estimated as $0.30 payable in May and September in equal portions.

The yield from that $0.30 dividend will be 4.14% at yesterday’s $7.25 price.

Gains For INTHY?

Adding the $0.30 dividend to my $1.22 estimated year over year price gain shows a potential $1.52 gross gain for the coming year.
