EPRT Dividend Reinvestment Snowball

Investing $10,000 + $100/mo in EPRT with historic price growth (11.82%) and dividend growth (5.23%) produces dramatically different outcomes depending on whether you reinvest dividends.

Milestones on the way

By year 13, the compounding really starts to show. Your total dividends collected reach $9,536 against a total investment of $25,600. At this point, your portfolio is throwing off $1,290 per year in dividends alone.

By year 17, the annual dividend climbs to around your initial contribution. For a starting investment of $10,000, the yearly dividend now sits at approximately $1,722, a powerful “income on autopilot” milestone.

After two decades, cumulative dividends total $20,956 versus $34,000 invested, nearly a 62% recovery of capital purely from income. Yield on cost reaches 6.18%.

At year 25, the income engine takes over. The portfolio’s annual dividend of $2,865 is greater than total contributions to date ($40,000), and cumulative dividends exceed $32,978.

By year 30, the DRIP snowball is in full force. Yearly income reaches $3,837, cumulative dividends total $49,204, and the DRIP portfolio value stands at $803,732, compared with $621,484 if dividends weren’t reinvested.

How we estimate these numbers

We use the latest calculator inputs for EPRT, price $30.43, dividend per period $0.30 (3×/year), along with historic growth assumptions: price growth 11.82% and dividend growth 5.23% annually.

We simulate month by month for 30 years. Every month, a $100 contribution is added and converted to shares at that month’s price. Dividends are paid roughly evenly across the year based on the dividend frequency; in the DRIP path, each payout immediately buys additional shares at the then-current price. In the No‑DRIP path, dividends accrue as cash. Prices grow using a monthly rate derived from the annual price growth. Dividends per share increase once per year at the annual dividend growth rate.

This model isn’t investment advice; it’s a simple, transparent framework that illustrates how reinvesting dividends can accelerate both income and total return over time.
