Your argument sounds good on the surface, but TASR was a liquid stock, with how many shares outstanding?? Traded how often?? Is on NASDAQ and now a 9 dollar per share stock. Was that not a pump and dump at one point?? Forward splits mean nothing as far as the ownership and liquidity issue is concerned. How do you see the TEVE share price increase for the common investor to make money. Remember the total shares outstanding is 616000. Any dividend by law will be required to be divided amongst all those shares, so for every 600,000 dollars of pure profit after all expenses and R&D, hiring, if the board was stupid enough to pay out everything to shareholders, you will get 1 dollar per share which would be a 10 percent dividend. First that's not very much, secondly that would be stupid for the company to pay out that much instead of expanding. You are looking at years and years away. So someone has 5000 shares a dividend of 1 dollar is only 5g a year. Had this person invested the money in the normal stock market which is up 25 percent in the last 52 weeks, you would be much better off. There is no positive for TEVE at this moment for the individual investor until the share structure is changed or MR Lenfest liquidates or sells. There are many companies that pay a great dividend, that also increase in share price making TEVE a lottery gamble at best. Enjoy your weekend!!!
