Dividend Focus

Fenimore Dividend Focus Equity SMA Composite

  • Dividend Focus seeks to maximize total return through a combination of capital appreciation and dividend income.
  • Unlike most dividend strategies that invest in large capitalization stocks, Dividend Focus primarily invests in quality mid-cap companies that pay growing dividends – not simply high current dividend yields.
  • A growing dividend can be a good indicator of the health of a company and its potential for future success.
  • Dividend Focus targets a long holding period, typically 5+ years, which allows stocks to compound, resulting in low turnover and a tax efficient strategy.*
