Telephone And Data Systems Preferreds Offer Highest Investment Grade Yield

Telephone and Data Systems' tickers TDS-U (TDS.PR.U) and TDS-V (TDS.PR.V) have, by far, the highest “qualified dividend” yield of any preferred stock in the market from an investment grade company. TDS carries a huge amount of cash on its balance sheet, many times more than its debt, so the preferred stocks are ultra safe. For U.S. investors, the TDS preferred's high “qualified dividends” generate a very high after-tax yield comparable to a 10.2% bond for those in the higher tax brackets.

This should support a $500 million share buyback program and further bolster a balance sheet that had net cash of $105 million at the end of its recent third quarter. The Series UU preferreds offer a current yield of 7.76% and are trading at a 15% discount to their liquidation value. These should recover if long-term Treasury rates dip.
