YieldBoost Safehold Inc From 3.8% To 21.9% Using Options

Shareholders of Safehold Inc (SAFE) looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 3.8% annualized dividend yield can sell the October covered call at the $20 strike and collect the premium based on the $1.00 bid, which annualizes to an additional 18.1% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 21.9% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $20 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but SAFE shares would have to climb 7% from current levels for that to occur, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 12.3% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
