Three key data points gauge Delek Group Ltd or any dividend-paying firm.

The key three are:

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

Those three basic keys best tell whether any company has made, is making, and will make money.

DELKY Price

Over the past year, Delek’s share price rose 16.7% from $11.02 to $12.86 as of Thursday’s market close.

If DELKY shares trade in the range of $10.00 to $15.00 this next year, its recent $12.86 share price might rise to $14.70 by next year. Of course, DELKY’s price could drop about the same $1.64 estimated amount, or more.

My annual upside estimate of $1.64 however, is about  $0.13 below the average annual DELEK price gain over the past five years.

DELKY Dividend

Delek Group Ltd has paid variable quarterly dividends annually since March 2023. DELKY’s most recent Q dividend of $0.37 was declared November 24 to shareholders of record December 4th and payout was made January 3rd.

A forward looking $1.64 annual dividend yields 12.75% at Thursday’s $12.86 share price.

DELKY Returns

To put it all together, add Delek Group Ltd estimated annual dividend of $1.64 to the estimated price upside of $1.64 to find a $3.28 estimated gross gain for the coming year.

At Thursday’s $12.86 share price, a little over $1000 would buy 78 shares.

A $10 broker fee (if charged), paid half at purchase and half at sale, would cost us about $0.13 per share.

Subtracting that likely $0.13 brokerage cost from the $3.28 gross gain produces a net gain of $3.15 X 78 shares = $245.70 for a 23.25% estimated net gain on the year.

You might choose to pounce on Delek Group Ltd It is a 73 year-old dividend paying Israeli oil and gas exploration and production Company.  Furthermore, the estimated $115.10 annual dividend income from $1k invested is near 9 times greater than DELKY’s recent $12.86 single share price.

The exact track of Delek Group’s ongoing future price and dividend will be determined by market action.

Remember, the true value of any stock is best realized through personal ownership of shares.
