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.
Port of Tauranga Ltd [POT.NZ] has been exceptional to its shareholders in terms of returns since its Listing in May 1992 at an estimated $0.75c per share with $3.04c in net dividends (excluding the period 1992-1997) and 30% more in tax credits (see chart above) and a 2:1 share split in May 2002 gives POT a slightly more than 1475% 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) over the nearly 18 year listing of POT, an approximate annual net return just over 81.%.
This is approximately a 500% better return when compared to the average of all NZX indexes.
