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.
Hellaby Holdings Ltd [HBY.NZ] has been good to its shareholders in terms of returns since its IPO in March 1994 at $NZ1.00 . With $NZ 2.02 cents in net dividends (see chart above) paid and another 33% average of that figure gained for those eligible for associated tax credits, and 1:5 share bonus in 1995 HBY gives a slightly less than 270% return (see chart below for the share price percentage gain against the average of all NZX indexes) over the 16 year listing, an approximate annual net return of just under 17%.
This is approximately a 50% better return when compared to the average of all NZX indexes.
