RE:article on seeking alphaTks for this, though I'm less confident about the leverage. Two x interest coverage may be adequate when rates are 8% -they are not likely to double. But when general interest rates are around 1%, there is a much higher risk of a sudden increase. (In 1979, rates rose over 4 points in just over 6 months.) I haven't looked at their hedging, but I do think the dividend increase was a shameless attempt to jack up the share price. With the leverage & lack of overwhelming profitability, they should have known that if a 3c dividend did not impress, a 4c one could even backfire. Well, maybe that was the CFO who just left.... I just wish they'd focus on profitability & keeping their customers happy and less on share price. The soap opera, as well as the leverage & low profit is keeping the price down. I too, am not looking for a quick takeover; I'd just have to find something else. I have quite a bit of it, more than usual for a penny stock.
