Dividend Idea Of The Week: Intel (NYSE:INTC) Offers A Yield Of 4.23% At 26.94% Upside Potential

Weekly Dividend Stock Ideas Researched by The Dividend Yield Weekly. Our weekly Dividend Idea is the leading technology and semiconductor company Intel Corporation (NYSE:INTC). Intel Corporation designs and manufactures integrated digital technology platforms. A platform consists of a microprocessor and chipset. The Company sells these platforms primarily to original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), original design manufacturers (ODMs), and industrial and communications equipment manufacturers in the computing and communications industries. The Company’s platforms are used in a range of applications, such as personal computers (PCs) (including Ultrabook systems), data centers, tablets, smartphones, automobiles, automated factory systems and medical devices. On February 2012, QLogic Corp. sold the product lines and certain assets associated with its InfiniBand business to the Company. In May 2012, Cray Inc. completed the sale of its interconnect hardware development program and related intellectual property to the Company. In September 2012, InterDigital, Inc.’s subsidiaries sold around 1,700 patents and patent applications to the Company. More on Reuters here

We like the company due to the high market share within the semiconductor industry (The biggest rival is Texas Instruments with a market capitalization of $32 billion, one third from the valuation of Intel). The stock is a basic investment for technology investors with one of the most attractive dividend yields within the sector. The company is acting in a very cyclic industry but has a beta ratio of only 1.06. Despite the fact that the company is near one-year lows, we believe that the sell-off could go on due to recession items. Another big burden is the low market share in the very fast growing Smartphone market. Intel raised dividends for 9 consecutive years (Dividend Challenger) and has a long-term dividend growth rate over 25 percent. The company serves $10.5 billion on cash and short-term investments at $7.2 billion debt. The strong operating cash flow (EBITDA of $23.2 billion) leads to an investment payback of 4.4 years.
