Every New York stock exchange trading day I'm posting a daily dividend stock or fund review. I'll share the three chief qualities of just one equity or fund that could be selected for a dividend stock portfolio I've named the Safari to Sweet Success.

This week my Safari portfolio is adding a company from the consumer defensive sector, which includes thirteen industries all related to those conveniently packaged goods we've just gotta have. The industries are: beverages, brewed, soft, or distilled;confectioners; discount stores; education & training; farm products; food distribution; grocery stores; household & personal products; packaged goods; pharmaceutical retailers; tobacco.

Today I'll review a grocery store retailer, Koninklijke Ahold Delhaize N.V. Its trading ticker symbol is ADRNY.

Koninklijke Ahold Delhaize NV is a retail company. It operates supermarkets, online retail, convenience stores, and fuel stations. The company is active across Europe and the United States.

As of January 1, 2017, it provided about 20 brands to almost 50 million customers each week in 11 countries through 6,556 stores, as well as online.

Koninklijke Ahold Delhaize N.V. was founded in 1887 and is headquartered in Zaandam, the Netherlands.

Three key data sets measure dividend equities or funds like

(1) Price

(2) Dividends

(3) Returns

ADRNY Price

Koninklijke Ahold's price at Friday's market close was $22.73 per share.A year ago its price was $21.64. Indeed, it gained$1.09 per share in the past year.  

Assuming Koninklijke Ahold price keeps gaining at price, at the same pace. its price will grow from $22.73 to $23.82.

ADRNY Dividends

Koninklijke Ahold's most recent annual dividend was $0.61 paid in April.

The annual dividend for 2018 is estimated at $1.22 paid semi-annually in April and October.

The yield from that $1.22 annual dividend was 5.43% at Friday's $22.73 price.

Gains For ADRNY?

Adding the $1.09 year-over-year price to the $1.21 dividend equals $2.30 in projected gross gains to be reduced by the cost to trade its shares.  

A $1,000.00 invested at Friday's $22.73 price bought 44 shares. 

At $5 for purchase and another $5 at sale, the $10 broker fee equals about $0.23 per share

Subtracting that $0.23 brokerage cost from the estimated $2.30 gross gain leaves a net gain to next year of $2.07 X 44 shares = $91.08 or a 9% net gain on a $1,000.12 investment.

Therefore, Koninklijke Ahold Delhaize NV (whose ticker symbol is ADRNY), now shows a possible 9% gain including a 5.43% dividend. 

No analysts cover this stock. However, the stock has traded in a range of $11 to $25 for the past ten years and is currently nearing the top of that range.
