RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:what is going onMD, my analysis was a one year comparison - audited annual statements.
Dec 31 2016 vs Dec 31 2015

I lumped Intangibles and Goodwill together.  Intangibles decreased by 5.5 million but Goodwill increased by 13.8 million. Total increase > $8 million.  So, on a fist pass high level analysis, EIF barely covered the 2017 dividend with their profits. In 2017, I expect that the annual profit will not cover the dividends. 

I learned my financial statement analysis a long time ago from a professor who was a forensic accountant.  His firm was often called in to investigate companies with fraudulent financials.  And NO, I am not suggesting anything nefarious with EIF's financials;  just pointing out that I learned where to look to determine whether or not a company is trying to paint a rosy scenario or hide something unfavourable.
