Companies are Buying Back Their Own Stock

by | Jan 23, 2025 | Integras Insights, Market Insights, Quarterly Commentary

With stock dividends getting taxed twice (once to the corporation and again to the shareholder), many companies are now choosing to return profits to shareholders in the form of stock buybacks instead. While there are several other reasons, the primary one is this tax-efficiency. Many of these companies do not pay a cash dividend sufficient to be included in our dividend growth strategy today. Integras Partners has historically viewed cash dividends as a sign of corporate strength, but this year we are introducing a new metric to our screening processes that includes these companies in the pool of candidates for investment.
