This High Dividend Stock Will Grow Revenue By 85%-Plus, Yields 7-8%, And Goes Ex-Dividend This Week

Jun. 6, 2015 3:13 PM ET | 4 comments | About: Wi-Lan Inc. (WILN), Includes: ACTG, MARA, UPIP

Summary

This stock just made a major acquisition, which has already caused it to adjust its next quarter revenue guidance upward by 85%-plus.
This stock has consistently beaten its revenue and earnings guidance over the past 3 years.
This stock has an industry-leading 7%-8% dividend yield, a 40% five-year dividend growth rate, and goes ex-dividend this week.

As you've no doubt heard, the world is becoming a smaller place, thanks to everything being connected digitally -- our computers, PCs, phones, TVs, homes, cars, etc. This growth shows no signs of stopping in the coming years:

These digital products rely on technical innovation, which inventors turn into patents. The past few years have seen firms buying failing companies, whose business models have cracked, just for the value of their patents -- such as Motorola and Kodak, for example.

This article's focus stock, Wi-LAN Inc., (NASDAQ:WILN), just announced a major deal on June 2, 2015, in which it acquired the patent portfolio of Qimonda AG, which was owned by Infineon.

"The Qimonda portfolio of over 7,000 patents and applications includes technologies related to DRAM, FLASH memory, semiconductor processes, semiconductor manufacturing, lithography, packaging, semiconductor circuitry and memory interfaces. The portfolio has broad relevance to many semiconductor products. The issued patents in the portfolio have an average remaining life of over 8 years. The portfolio includes approximately 5,000 US patents and applications."
