Long Term View: Restaurant Brands 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.

This company has been in the news today with a profit upgrade and I have a special interest in it as it was the first share I ever bought, way back in 1997.

Restaurant Brands Ltd [RBD.NZ] has put its shareholders on a roller-coaster ride in terms of returns since its NZX listing in 1997 at NZ$2.10. With NZ$1.03 cents in net dividends (see chart above) paid and another 33% of that figure gained for those eligible for associated tax credits, a slightly more than a 60% return (see chart below for the share price percentage gain against the average of all NZX indexes) over the 13 year listing gives an annual net return of just over 4.61%.

This is just over half the return from the average of all NZX indexes.
