Founded in 1998 and headquartered in Turin, Italy, Intesa Sanpaolo S.p.A. (ISNPY) provides various financial products and services primarily in Italy.

It operates through six segments: Banca dei Territori, IMI Corporate & Investment Banking, International Banks, Asset Management, Private Banking, and Insurance.

Three key data points gauge Intesa Sanpaolo SpA or any dividend-paying entity, namely:

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

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

ISNPY Price

Intesa share price rose 56.8% from $24.94 to $39.13 over the past year per Tuesday’s market price.

Two analysts cover the stock and set their one-year price target at $35.98, down $3.15.

However, in the past five years, the price has tracked in a range of $9.78 to the recent $39.93 as of August 22nd’s share price. 

The average annual price gain over the past five years was $5.23, but over ten years was just $1,76.

INSPY Dividends

Intesa Sanpaolo SpA has paid semi-annual variable dividends since June 2010.

The current forward-looking annual $2.32 dividend yields 5.93% per Tuesday’s $39.12 share price.

The most recent $1.16 SA dividend was paid on June 2nd.

INSPY Returns

Putting it all together, a $4.32 estimated gross gain per share shows up when adding INSPY ’s annual $2.32 dividend to an estimated $2.00 annual price gain.

A little under $1000 invested at the recent $39.12 share price would buy 25.56 shares which, multiply the $4.32 gross gain to an estimated $110.43 for the coming year.

Over 53% of that $110 gain comes from the $59.30 of annual dividends generated from your $1,000 investment.

Besides, the $59.30 annual dividend income from your $1k investment is $20.18 greater than the recent $39.12 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.)

Therefore, you may choose to pounce on Intesa Sanpaolo SpA to get that current $59.30 annual dividend income that has been paid out over the past 15 years.

The exact track of INSPY’s future share price and dividends 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.
