Shareholders of IDT Corp (IDT) looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 0.5% annualized dividend yield can sell the December covered call at the $47 strike and collect the premium based on the $1.90 bid, which annualizes to an additional 6.8% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 7.3% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $47 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but IDT shares would have to climb 23.3% from current levels for that to happen, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 28.3% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
