Investors can still find top TSX dividend stocks at reasonable or even undervalued prices to add to their income portfolios.Barrick Gold
Barrick Gold (TSX:ABX) (NYSE:GOLD) might not be the first name that comes to mind when investors normally think about dividend stocks, but the company deserves to be included among the group of emerging dividend-growth picks.The board has tripled the quarterly dividend to US$0.09 per share since September 2018 and announced a special return of capital payment to the tune of US$750 million for 2021, or US$0.42 per share.When combined with the dividend, the US$0.78-per-share distribution this year provides an annualized yield of 3.4% at the time of writing.
Barrick Gold worked hard to shore up the balance sheet in recent years.Successful sales of non-core assets and a rising gold price helped the company go from US$13 billion in debt to the current position of zero net debt.This is great news for dividend investors.Money that used to go to servicing the excess debt can now be redirected to boost distributions.
Barrick Gold reported Q1 2021 all-in sustaining costs of US$1,018 per ounce.
Gold currently trades for US$1,900 per ounce, so the company is enjoying good margins.The price of gold should move higher in the coming months, as seasonal strength combines with a rotation out of crypto currencies back to gold.
The stock trades near $28 per share on the TSX Index compared to $40 last August when gold topped US$2,000 per ounce.Volatility should be expected, but the stock appears cheap right now based on current gold prices and Barrick Gold’s potential to be a free cash flow machine in the coming years.Investors could get a generous dividend increase before the end of 2021.
