Lamar Advertising is a real estate investment trust and an outdoor advertising company. Co. leases space for advertising on billboards, buses, shelters, benches, logo plates and in airport terminals. Co.'s outdoor advertising displays are: billboards, in which Co. leases its advertising space on bulletins and posters; logo signs, which erects logo signs that advertise nearby gas, food, camping, lodging and other attractions, and directional signs that direct vehicle traffic to nearby services and tourist attractions, near highway exits; and transit advertising displays, in which Co. rents transit advertising displays in airport terminals and on bus shelters, benches and buses. The LAMR stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the LAMR stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2021 for the given stock.
When performing this calculation it is important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annual return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon.
One way to factor dividends into the return is simply to count them as cash — we don't do
that here. Instead, our website aims to empower investors
by performing the LAMR annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
