Current Report: INDUS Holding Could Grow 18.6% This Year

The company was founded in 1989 and is headquartered in Bergisch Gladbach, Germany.

INDUS Holding AG (INDHF) maintains equity in medium-sized manufacturing companies as well as in corporate development.

It operates through five segments: Construction and Infrastructure, Automotive Technology, Engineering, Medical Engineering and Life Science, and Metals Technology. 

Three key data points gauge INDHF (or any dividend paying entity):

(1) Price 

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

Those three keys also indicate if any company has made, is making, and will make money.

INDHF Price

INDUS Holding’s single share price rose $6.21 (or about 26%) from $24.00 to $30.21 in the past year, per Friday’s closing market report.

No analysts cover the stock. However, the past two year price history shows an average $4.10 annual price gain which I’ll use for its annual return; after I discuss dividends.  

INDHF Dividends

INDUS Holding has paid annual dividends since July, 2003.

The recent A dividend of $1.51 was paid June 9th (to shareholders on record as of June 5th) and that annual payout yields a forward looking 4.99% (per Friday’s closing market report.}

INDHF Returns

Putting it all together, as of June 19th, a possible gross gain of $5.61 was projected. The $4.10 per share historic annual gain was added to the $1.51 forward looking annual dividend to equal a $5.61 gross gain.

A little under $1000 invested in INDHF at Friday’s $30.20 closing share price would buy 33 shares which multiply the $5.61 gross gain to $185.76 for the coming year, or about 18.6%.

My dividend dogcatcher rule is to only buy initial shares of a dividend stock that pay an annual dividend (from $1000 invested) that is greater than the cost of one share.

INDHF’s projected annual dividend from $1K invested is $49.90. So INDUS Holding AG shows a dividend from $1,000 invested over 1.65 times greater than its $30.21 single share price.

The exact track of INDHF’s future share price and dividend will entirely be determined by market action and company finances.

Remember the best way to track stock performance and dividend payments is through direct ownership of company shares.
