Cogeco Communications (CGECF) was incorporated in 1957 and is headquartered in Montreal, Canad

Cogeco, Inc. is a diversified holding company, which provides telecommunications and media services.

It operates through Canadian Telecommunications and American Telecommunications segments. 

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

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

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

CGECF Price

Cogeco Inc single share price grew $$15.10 (near 41%) from $36.88 to $51.98. this past year, per Friday’s market price.

No analysts cover the stock. However the past-year price gain is unlikely  repeat.

A peek at ten-year price history shows an average annual share price gain of $1.59.

CGECF Dividends

Cogeco Inc has declared and paid variable quarterly dividends since August, 1989.

The declared, February 2026 Q dividend of $0.72 equates to a forward looking annual dividend amount of $2.88 for the coming year.

CGECF Returns

Putting it all together, a hypothetical annual gross gain of $4.47 per share is predicted by adding the $2.88 forward-looking dividend to the $1.59 average past-ten-year annual price-gain.

A little over $1000 invested at Friday’s $51.48 share price would buy 19.4 shares which multiply the $4.47 gross gain to an estimated $86.83 upside for the coming year.

64% of that $87 upside gain could come from the $55.60 annual dividend payout from your $1,000 investment.

And the $55.60 dividend from $1k invested is $4.12 more than CGECFs $51.48 single share price.

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

CGECF’s forthcoming dividend from $1,000 invested is over $4 more the price of a single share.   

The exact track of CGECF’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.
