KO Dividend Type Payments
Although KO has no upcoming (meaning, Board-approved and announced) dividends, you can sell covered calls on Coca-Cola Company (The) to create 12 extra dividend type payments per year to boost its yield. Let's look at some recent prices (last updated Thu 4:16 PM ET):
Coca-Cola Company (The) (KO) | ||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

KO Dividend-Like Income Using Covered Calls
With KO at 62.45, here's a table showing how big the annual "dividend" (i.e. total annual call premium received) would need to be to attain 3%, 5%, and 10% annual yields. Also shown is the equivalent number of cents/day necessary to achieve each yield:
Annual Yield | Annual Premium | Cents/Day |
---|---|---|
3% | 1.87 | 0.5 |
5% | 3.12 | 0.9 |
10% | 6.25 | 1.7 |
So now we need to find out of the money covered calls that pay at least the prescribed cents/day amount of time premium. That will generate income and, because they are out of the money, leave room for some upside potential on the stock. Here are some examples:
