Q: Please compare NWC vs DOL and your current choice for growth (share price and dividend growth)
Thanks
Thanks
5i Research Answer:
NWC is much smaller than DOL, at a $1.8B market cap vs. DOL at $27.9B. DOL is expecting higher growth over the next year, and historically it has a much stronger long-term return than NWC. DOL is well-capitalized, has strong profit margins, but it does trade at a higher valuation than NWC. While we like NWC as an income play, for a long-term holding, we would prefer DOL today.
