HLI 10-yr Total Return ($10,000 invested)
This analysis of HLI demonstrates the power of dividend reinvestment over a 10-year period with a $10,000 initial investment. The dividend reinvestment strategy delivered a 26.5% CAGR, representing exceptional long-term performance. The DRIP strategy provided 17% more total return compared to collecting dividends as cash, highlighting the compounding effect of reinvestment.
Total Return with and without DRIP (HLI)
Over the selected period, investing $10,000 in HLI would grow to $124,472 with DRIP (1,144.7%), and $105,713 without DRIP (957.1%).
HLI Dividend Reinvestment Snowball
Investing $10,000 + $100/mo in HLI with historic price growth (22.34%) and dividend growth (14.87%) 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 $7,205 against a total investment of $25,600. At this point, your portfolio is throwing off $1,408 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 $2,535, a powerful “income on autopilot” milestone.
After two decades, cumulative dividends total $23,232 versus $34,000 invested, nearly a 68% recovery of capital purely from income. Yield on cost reaches 11.49%.
At year 25, the income engine takes over. The portfolio’s annual dividend of $7,963 is greater than total contributions to date ($40,000), and cumulative dividends exceed $49,795.
By year 30, the DRIP snowball is in full force. Yearly income reaches $16,126, cumulative dividends total $103,729, and the DRIP portfolio value stands at $7,895,322, compared with $6,872,204 if dividends weren’t reinvested.
How we estimate these numbers
We use the latest calculator inputs for HLI, price $177.28, dividend per period $0.60 (4x/year), along with historic growth assumptions: price growth 22.34% and dividend growth 14.87% 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.
