Magyar Telekom PLC (MYTAY) is a telecommunications company that operates in two segments: MT-Hungary and North Macedonia.

MT Hungary supplies mobile, information communication, television distribution, and system integration services to both business and residential consumers in Hungary.

The North Macedonia segment expands the company's mobile and fixed-line telecommunication services across North Macedonia.

Magyar controls the largest share of the Hungarian telecom market and has a footprint in Macedonia, Bulgaria, and Romania. The company receives most of its revenue from Hungary.

The company was incorporated in 1991 and is headquartered in Budapest, Hungary. 

Magyar Telekom operates as a subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom Europe B.V.

Three key data points gauge Magyar Telekom or any dividend-paying firm.

The key three are:

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

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

MYTAY Price

Over the past year, Magyar Telekom’s share price increased about 157% from $5.80 to $14.93 as of Monday’s market close.

If MYTAY shares trade in the range of $7.00 to $20.00 this next year, its recent $14.93 share price might rise to $16.50 by next year. Of course, MYTAY’s price could also drop about the same $ 1.57 estimated amount or more.

My $1.57 upside is based on the average MYTAY one-year price gain over the past five years.

MYTAY Dividend

Magyar Telekom has paid variable Annual dividends since June 2008. The most recent $0.62 dividend was declared on March 20th for shareholders of record on April 25th and was paid on May 16th.

A forward-looking $0.62 annual dividend yields 4.13% at Monday’s closing share price.

MYTAY Returns

To put it all together, a $2.19 estimated gross gain per share for the next year shows up when adding MYTAYs $0.62 annual dividend to the estimated price upside of $1.57.

A little over $1000 buys 67 shares at $14.93 per share.

A $10 broker fee (if charged), paid half at purchase and half at sale, might take $0.15 per share out of the $2.19 gross gain to reveal a net gain of $2.04 X 67 shares = $136.68 for about a 13.65% estimated net gain on the year.

Furthermore, the $41.30 annual dividend income from $1K invested is over 2.76 times greater than the $24.93 single share price. By these numbers, Magyar Telekom may be an ideal dividend dog.

You might choose to pounce on Magyar Telekom.  It is a 33-year-old dividend-paying Hungarian-based telecom firm with a 16-year track record paying variable annual dividends.

The exact track of MYTAY's future price and dividend will entirely be determined by market action.

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