15 Fairly Priced Growth Orientated Dividend Achievers

Investing in dividend stocks isn't the only way to make money in the stock market, but it's a pretty effective one.

Buying dividend stocks and holding them for long periods of time can be a great way to generate income from your portfolio or help build a position over years through dividend reinvestment.

For this to be effective, though, investors need to find stocks of quality companies that are going to crank out dividends at a decent rate quarter after quarter.

A solid ground to start your research is the dividend Achievers list. Those stocks managed to raise dividends each year for more than 10 years in a row.

In total, there are 333 stocks with such an impressive dividend growth history.

Today I want to select only those that might look really interesting in terms of price to growth. 

I selected those stocks with double-digit expected earnings per share growth while the forward P/E is still less than 15 and an acceptable debt burden weights on the balance sheet.

Only 15 stocks fulfilled these criteria. You find the full list at the end of this article.

Here are the top yielding stocks in detail...

20 Dividend Achievers Benjamin Graham Would Hunt

Benjamin Graham, the father of value investing, liked bargains.

In The Intelligent Investor, he told investors to look for stock prices at or below 15-times earnings, and at or below 1.5-times book value.

I like to adjust this rule in order to limit the results from my screen.

Here are more restrictions of my screen:

- Dividend Achiever
- Forward P/E under 15
- P/B under 2
- 5 Year Future EPS Forecasted Growth Over 5% yearly
- Debt to equity under 0.5

Exactly 20 stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which 6 yield over 3%. 

Attached I've tried to compile a few stocks that might match these criteria within the Dividend Achievers space. You will also find the best yielding stocks from the screen as a detailed snapshot.

Banks and insurer are dominating the screening results.

19 Modestly Valueated Dividend Stocks To Buy And Hold For The Next 20 Years

Though it's undeniably gratifying to watch any stock you own skyrocket in value over short periods of time, the best way to predictably generate wealth is to buy and hold shares of great companies over the long term.

And we're not talking periods of just weeks or months, but rather years or -- better yet -- decades. So attached I've tried to compile a dozen stocks that might be the ideal investment for the long term.

The basis for me was a strong established corporate structure with big brands which drive billions of dollars each year into the company without a low Capex desire.

Dividend Achievers often have such a big footprint in their industry and they become stronger with every recession over decades.

These are the criteria of my screen:

- Sales growth in the past five years positive
- Expected EPS growth for the next five years over 5 percent yearly
- Low forward P/E
- Debt to equity under 0.5

19 stocks fulfilled my above mentioned criteria of which four have a dividend yield over 3 percent. The screen is not focused on yield but more on financial stability and future growth. Pick the right growth stock and you could get rich. Remember McDonalds in the 80ies. What a wonderful investment.

Here are some of my ideas you might get for an attractive price...

19 Dividend Achievers With Strong Fundamentals, Solid Growth And Cheap Price Ratios

Investors looking for income usually go for dividends instead on betting on stocks that offer capital gains for wealth creation. 

Dividend-paying stocks also provide a cushion against equity market volatility. With Wall Street swinging between bull and bear markets, there are chances of high volatility in the near future. 

While a series of mergers and acquisitions gave a boost to the technology market, the unknown impact of the interest rate hike, an aging bull market, the strengthening dollar, lower oil prices and global growth concerns like the Greece crisis and the slowdown in China, are testing investors’ patience.

This instability has compelled many to play safe and depend on dividend-paying stocks for steady returns. After all, such stocks have been the proven outperformers over the long term and are relatively safer bets. 

Usually, an investor’s risk tolerance is a major factor that determines how the portfolio is organized. However, it is prudent to have a mix of both growth and dividend-yielding stocks. 

Also, while some companies may offer a special dividend to distribute a windfall, it is advisable to choose a consistent performer with strong fundamentals.

Attached you will find a couple of stocks with such strong fundamentals. I restricted my research on long-term dividend growth stocks in order to keep the quality high.

These are my screening criteria in detail:

- Dividend Growth Over 10 Consecutive Years
- Positive Past Sales Growth
- Expected Mid-Term Earnings Growth Over 5%
- Debt To Equity Under 0.5
- Low Forward P/E Under 15

19 stocks fulfilled the above mentioned criteria of which four yields over 3 percent.

18 Cheap Dividend Growth Stocks To Consider Now

Growth at a reasonable price is an investing strategy that blends value and growth investing.

Instead of just buying a stock that’s cheap, or one that’s growing earnings fast, we look for stocks that appear decently priced with respect to year-over-year growth.

For example, a company growing 15% annually with a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 15 or less would be considered cheap by growth at reasonable price standards.

Attached you will find a compilation of dividend growth stocks that which I have screened by growth at reasonable price standards.

I only screened stocks with a 10 year plus dividend growth at 10% earnings growth and less than 15 P/E multiple.

In order to avoid debt overloaded stocks, I decided to select only those stocks with a debt to equity under 1.

18 stocks remain. Attached you will find the results compiled in a list with important fundamentals.

6 Attractive Dividend Growth Stocks That Could Double Dividends Soon

Dividend stocks can be the foundation of a great retirement portfolio. Dividend payments put money into your pocket, which can help hedge against any dips in the stock market, but they're usually a sign of a financially sound company.

Dividends also give investors a painless opportunity to reinvest in a stock, thus boosting future payouts and compounding gains over time. Yet not all income stocks live up to their full potential.

Using the payout ratio, or the percentage of profits a company returns in the form of a dividend to its shareholders, we can get a good bead on whether a company has room to increase its dividend. Ideally, we like to see healthy payout ratios between 50% and 75%.

I rund a screen in order to find a few attractive dividend growth stocks that could grow earnings and dividends for the years the come.

Leading criteria in my screen are debt-to-equity, 5-Year EPS growth, payout ratio and past sales growth as indicator for the future.

6 income stocks with payout ratios currently below 50% poped on and each of them could potentially double their dividends in the following years.

Here are the results in detail...

18 Most Attractive Mid-Cap Dividend Growth Stocks

I'm a big fan of large capitalized stocks due to the higher degree of safeness I could enjoy. But the price I pay for those extra points is return.

High quality large cap stocks often give you a smaller return than companies with a small capitalization.

Mid-cap stocks combine attributes of both large and small companies. Similar to large companies, these mid-size companies can have seasoned management teams, a strong market presence and access to capital markets, for instance.

They can also grow quickly, with fewer layers of management and bureaucracy, and offer a more entrepreneurial spirit than large competitors.

Attached I've tried to list some smaller capitalized dividend growth stocks with a market cap under 10 billion and a history of consecutive dividend of more than 10 years.

Exactly 210 companies have such a long dividend growth history. In order to limit my selection, I've tighten my criteria.

Each of the stocks must fulfill the following restrictions:

- Forward P/E under 15

- Debt-to-equity under 0.5

- 5-Year estimated EPS growth over 5%

18 small- and mid capitalized stocks survived my screening criteria of which five yield over 3 percent. 8 of the results have a buy or better rating.

Here are the top yielding results in detail...

6 Mid-Cap Dividend Growth Stocks With Return Potential

When investors consider financial ratios individually, they may put their money in stocks that do not really fit in their profile. 

For instance, a high EPS alone doesn’t say too much about a company, if one doesn’t look into the company’s revenues, net income, and sustained dividend payments and so on.

Conversely, a high EPS combined with a good dividend yield above 3% and consistency in good, strong financial results, may suggest a great investment.

The article introduces 6 mid-capitalized stocks with fast growing earnings while price multiples for 2015 earnings are still low. The main focus is on smaller capitalized stocks, companies with a market cap below 2 billion and a consistent dividend growth history of more than a decade.

Here are the top results, sorted by yield...

Dividend Contenders are the following class of the  Dividend Champions league. Contenders raised dividend payments over a period of 10-25 years without a break. Most of them have a huge potential to become a solid Dividend Champion.
