Long Term View: Cavalier Corporation Ltd



In this series of posts I am going to be looking at stocks listed on the NZX in relation to their returns to shareholders over the life of their listing -what shareholders would now see in their back pockets if they had invested in the company IPO. The calculation of returns includes dividends and tax credits.

Cavalier Corporation Ltd [CAV.NZ] has been a good performing stock listed on the NZX. Since its July 1984 listing CAV has done well. We start at an adjusted $1.25* to make our comparison. $3.085c in net dividends** and 30% more in tax credits (see chart above) a 2:1 share split in 2002 gives CAV a 620% return (see chart below for the share price percentage gain against the average of all NZX indexes - does not include dividends, tax credits and the share split in its calculation) and over the nearly 20 year listing*** of CAV an approximate annual net return of over 31%.

This is approximately a 100% better return when compared to the average of all NZX indexes.
