Jenny Ruth in her piece at Businessdesk with headline Argosy goes for growth, but what about earnings? doesn’t seem on same page as you
Last bit -
All of this is cold comfort to investors wondering how Argosy is going to perform over the next 10 years and whether chasing portfolio size is an appropriate goal to set.
I'm comfortable with their management, governance and future strategy. You know me and my emphasis on track record and the five year summary of a company is one of my most favored parts of the annual report of any company as it gives such a useful snapshot of their track record. http://nzx-prod-s7fsd7f98s.s3-websit...406/346284.pdf
In my opinion page 8 speaks for itself with distributable income steadily rising from 6.55 cps in 2017 to 8.14 cps in 2021, albeit the latter figure augmented by the $4.5m Albany settlement but nevertheless a nice solid average annual increase of about 4% per annum.
NTA has steadily increased from $1.06 in 2017 to $1.53 in 2021. Good solid, dependable, albeit a bit boring, stuff and all the way along the journey decent quarterly tax paid PIE dividends.
I feel quite content with a decent chunk of these in my portfolio.
Risks are the rising 10 year Govt stock rate and the work from home trend, (although I can't help wondering how long employers are going to trust the employees will be just as productive working from home as whilst there is some initial novelty to this its very easy to let work efforts slip when working from home).
Forecast dividend is 6.55 cps per annum so on a $1.50 share price that's 4.37% net yield which for many investors on a 33% tax rate = 6.52% gross.
Its up to people to decide for themselves if the Argosy team can continue to perform well going forward in a possible higher interest rate environment, for me I think their track record is quite satisfactory and I am not concerned if Jenny Ruth sees it differently.
my feeling from the article was that they just didn't want to put a number on it. would it be fair to say that to infer anything more than that (i.e. the actual number themselves) is speculation.
blow off top 168...
probably the top for a while.
They really should increase the Div next year.
New all time high. The board are focused on steady dividend increases over the years and FY22 is up 1.6% of FY21. Last year they only paid out 89% of AFFO earnings so there is plenty of scope for many more years of dividend increases on top of the steady increases in the last 5 years....which is a vastly different situation from that prevailing at KPG.
My rating HHH (Happy Hound Holder).
Just dont have enough of them... got lots... should have got far too many..
bought them in half of all entities with trading accounts..
think we will have to buy it into every entity portfolio.
ARG is an investment; KPG has always been a trade.
hopefully KPG will take notice and get its act together. ARG has been a stand out performer.
