I buy mostly growth stocks but generally would prefer a regular dividend to a transaction exit strategy . If they could pay 10c in 2018 and 15c in 2019 I'd be very happy .
Me too because if they were paying a 10c dividend in 2018, based on a 5% return (more likely much less in the initial commencement of paying a dividend) that would give a share price of $2. Share price is currently 58c. To me the share price getting to $2 is far more likely than them paying a dividend in 2018 though as I believe there is a lot of potential growth into new markets for this company and I'd prefer to see profits ploughed back into making more and more money in these new markets.
In my experience in the markets the real money is made in capital growth of a company, not dividends. You can find many companies that give you 5% returns in dividends, very few have the potential to significantly grow their capital value so much.
