RE:RE:RE:Total SilenceI share your concern but would question the wisdom or liklihood of a special dividend. Ultimately it would send a very loud message tht management does not know how to invest the cash in something that will generate a good return. As for a dividend increase in 2017, a 25% hike to 10 cents will cost RDM over $2.2 million annually. The company's performance over the last 10 years is nothing less than a roller coaster; the combined net loss in the five years 2007 - 2011 have just barely been recovered over the last five years (2012-2016). It's hard to know what might be sustainable.
The additions at Norrep and Caldwell are nice but very small. I continue to believe that an activist group will surface fairly soon with some demands for change.
