New Dividend Portfolio Buy: Railroad Company Union Pacific

I purchased my first railroad stock for the Dividend Yield Passive Income Portfolio last Friday.

It was the railroad company Union Pacific (UP). Union Pacific Corporation, through its subsidiary, Union Pacific Railroad Company, provides rail transportation services in North America. The company offers freight transportation services for agricultural products, including grains and commodities, food, and beverage products; and automotive products, such as imported and exported shipments, finished vehicles, and automotive parts and materials.

I paid $154.75 per share which resulted in $1,242.92 net cost. The new stake will give me only around $25 bucks in dividend income per year. But the potential is available to get higher dividends in the upcoming years. Earnings are expected to grow by 13.68 percent of the next five years and the payout ratio is only at 30.2 percent while the long-term-debt to equity ratio is at 0.44.

UNP is a Dividend Challenger who raised dividends over a period of seven consecutive years. The five year dividend growth rate amounts to 29.8 percent.

I believe that UNP is one of the most stabile railroads on the market. For sure, stocks like NSC, ARII or CSX pay better dividends but the quality is not the same and debt ratios of them are also a bit higher.

The current yield amounts to 2.04 at a forward P/E of 14.14. For the estimated growth a current P/E of 17.61 for the biggest player in the market is ok in my view.



--------------------------------------
For readers who are new to the matter and my dividend growth philosophy: I funded a virtual portfolio with 100k on October 04, 2012 with the aim to build a passive income stream that doubles each five to ten years. I plan to purchase each week one stock holding until the money is fully invested. The total number of constituents is expected at 50 – 70 companies and the dividend income should be at least at $3,000 per year.
--------------------------------------

The stock holdings are up 7.63 percent since the date of funding. In addition, I received around $1,000 in cash dividends. Due to the slow purchase process and high amount of cash since October 2012, the full portfolio is only up 6.34 percent.

The full year dividend income is now estimated at $2,416.32 annualized. With a yield on cost of 3.44 percent it’s still possible to hit the mark of at least $3,000 per year despite the fact that the current trade is far below this ratio.
