Northwest Pipe manufactures water related infrastructure products. Most of Co.'s water transmission products, mainly welded steel pipe and bar-wrapped cylinder pipe, are made to project specifications for engineered, large-diameter, high-pressure water infrastructure systems. Other uses include power generation circulating water systems, penstocks, pipe piling, and water and wastewater treatment plants. In addition, Co. produces precast and reinforced concrete products, Permalok® steel casing pipe, bar-wrapped concrete cylinder pipe, as well as linings, coatings, joints, and provides fittings and components typically used in non-pressure, gravity fed sewer and stormwater applications. The NWPX stock yearly return is shown above.
The yearly return on the NWPX stock yearly return page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annual return over the calendar year 2014 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 NWPX annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
