Sometimes juicy dividends come in small packages. When income investors hunt for yield, they have to look in unlikely places, like small-cap and microcap stocks. Sure, companies with smaller caps can be riskier and less liquid, but that doesn’t mean they won’t be good for their payouts. And with ultra-low interest rates making a decent return hard to come by, starving income investors need to be flexible in their hunt for yield. Another advantage of the little guys paying dividends is that they also have the potential for excellent price appreciation.
Dividend hunting in the small-cap and microcap universe turns up a number of names with outstandingly high yields and decent prospects, too. It does not, however, reveal anything like a list of household names — which is just as well. The best opportunities are often the least well-known. Here, then, are five of the best hidden dividend stocks we found: PDL BioPharma (PDLI), a small-cap biopharmaceutical company. Geo Group (GEO) is the nation’s largest operator of prisons and correctional facilities. Suburban Propane Partners (SPH) throws off such an ample stream of cash. If you want to know what your Ryan Vogelsong-autographed baseball is worth, you go to Collectors Universe (CLCT). Student Transportation (STB) provides school bus transportation for public and private schools, moving more than a million students every day in both the U.S and Canada.
