Three key data points gauge Rexel SA 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.

RXLSF Price

Over the past year, Rexel share price increased 21% from $18.99 to $23.00 as of Monday’s market close.

If Rexel shares trade in the range of $19.00 to $28.00 this next year, its recent $23.00 share price might rise to $ 25.00 by next year. Of course, RXLSF price could drop about the same $ 2.00 estimated amount or more.

My annual upside estimate of $2.00 however, is $2.00 below the past single share price increase.

RXLSF Dividend

Rexel has paid variable Annual dividends since June 21, 2017. TRCLF’s most recent Annual dividend was paid May 11th to shareholders on record as of May 9th.The forward-looking $2.64 annual dividend yields 11.48% at Monday’s $23.00 share price.

RXLSF Returns

To put it all together, add the annual dividend of$2.64 to the price upside of $2.00 to find a $4.64 gross gain.

At Monday’s $23.00 share price, a little under $1000 would buy 43 shares.

A $10 broker fee (if charged), paid half at purchase and half at sale, might cost us about $0.23 per share.

Subtracting that likely $0.23 brokerage cost from the $4.64 estimated gross gain per share produces a net gain of $4.41 X 43 shares = $189.63 for a 19% estimated net gain.

You might choose to pounce on Rexel. It is a 56-year-old French home and office electronics technology company. Furthermore, the estimated $114.80 of dividend income from $1k invested is near 5 times greater than Monday’s Rexel SA $23.00 single share price.

The exact track of Rexel SA ongoing future prices and dividends are yet to be known.

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