I used this elsewhere on an NWS thread header under the chart - easily modifiable.

On edit - looks like half the links are not allowed here.

Smiths News is the UK's leading newspaper and magazine wholesaler. The company distributes newspapers and magazines on behalf of national publishers as well as a number of regional publishers. It serves approximately 30,000 retailers across England and Wales, supplying large general retailers as well as smaller independent newsagents.

How to become an Isa millionaire


IC Lord Lee's Isa portfolio

Lord Lee holds 40 stocks because it "makes sense and is manageable". His current holdings include the following six stocks - all of which he has held for many years:

■ Treatt (TET)

■ Air Partner (AIP)

■ Dairy Crest Group (DCG)

■ BBA Aviation (BBA)

■ Fenner (FENR)

■ Smiths News (NWS)

However, Lord Lee's is a high risk approach to investing, that won't be suitable for everyone.
Here are two case studies that highlight how other investors have reached major milestones with their Isa portfolios by taking less risk and investing via managed funds.

The dividend is more than twice covered by earning, what is he on about

In a recent IC piece JL indicated his ISA (by repute £1M+) held only 12 stocks and this was this is one of the 12. Paul Scott recently castigated the company for a weak balance sheet and said it should not be paying a dividend.

Added. Way oversold, I had enough till now, but just too tempting under 150p.

The trading statement was after all in line with prior year earnings, books still growing turnover, which if the mix stays on lower margins will still be accretive for future years.

And those long contracts for papers and magazines support the share and the dividend for years to come, limiting downside risk.

All with a super dividend yield and PER of 7.

There is a "read across" from Menzies, which some years ago went into airport logistics as a diversification from newspaper/magazine distribution and which reported yesterday. Apparently its newspaper and particularly magazine distribution arms had a challenging year and their share of turnover declined from 43% to 37%. They are to increasingly focus on the logistics. The dividend was up 5%, but that will have been attributable to logistics.

While I accept that that the run-up to 250 was probably irrational exuberance the trend reversal to 166 is not in my opinion justified by the statement.

It was interesting that Paul Scott [Stockopaedia--Small Cap Value] stated that the balance sheet was very weak and he felt the company should not be paying a dividend at all. He sees the company as a value trap as a great deal hinges on the dividend.

Same here fenners. I sold out at 210 and thought I had made a bad call when they continued to shoot up. I sold on the back of poor numbers from MNZS and saw them read-across to NWS. As it happens, the news division is the one left holding up the empire, so eventually I seem to have made the right decision but for the wrong reason.
If these do bottom out with an offering of a yield of 6% or more, I may be tempted to get back in.

looks like NWS is definitely into a trend reversal. will be interesting to see where support will kick in.

according to Digital Look forecast dividend for current FY is 9.97p giving a prospective yield of c6% at current share price. however i suspect forecasts for the dividend will be reduced in the coming weeks following monday's statement.

You should look at JIL, very good dividend yield, just under 9%
