This analysis of FLO demonstrates the power of dividend reinvestment over a 10-year period with a $10,000 initial investment.

With DRIP No DRIP

Total Return with and without DRIP (FLO)

Over the selected period, investing $10,000 in FLO would grow to $12,127 with DRIP (21.3%), and $13,970 without DRIP (39.7%).

FLO Dividend Reinvestment Snowball

Investing $10,000 + $100/mo in FLO with historic price growth (-7.49%) and dividend growth (4.48%) 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 $247,391 against a total investment of $25,600. At this point, your portfolio is throwing off $125,708 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 $2,103,008, a powerful “income on autopilot” milestone.

After two decades, cumulative dividends total $35,288,108 versus $34,000 invested, nearly a 103,789% recovery of capital purely from income. Yield on cost reaches 127,484.28%.

At year 25, the income engine takes over. The portfolio’s annual dividend of $86,882,679,957 is greater than total contributions to date ($40,000), and cumulative dividends exceed $37,136,456,207.

By year 30, the DRIP snowball is in full force. Yearly income reaches $17,018,055,850,312,698, cumulative dividends total $3,890,099,094,191,890, and the DRIP portfolio value stands at $3,792,011,064,569,890, compared with $521,443 if dividends weren’t reinvested.

How we estimate these numbers

We use the latest calculator inputs for FLO, price $8.52, dividend per period $0.25 (4x/year), along with historic growth assumptions: price growth -7.49% and dividend growth 4.48% 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.

Projected Future Returns & Dividends for FLO

Based on past 10-year performance, here are FLO growth metrics:

Share price CAGR of +10.04%
