Notable Friday Option Activity: SRPT, LLY, IIPR

Shareholders of Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (Symbol: IIPR) looking to boost their income beyond the stock's 13.7% annualized dividend yield can sell the October covered call at the $60 strike and collect the premium based on the $2.35 bid, which annualizes to an additional 16.6% rate of return against the current stock price (at Stock Options Channel we call this the YieldBoost), for a total of 30.3% annualized rate in the scenario where the stock is not called away. Any upside above $60 would be lost if the stock rises there and is called away, but IIPR shares would have to advance 9.1% from current levels for that to occur, meaning that in the scenario where the stock is called, the shareholder has earned a 13.3% return from this trading level, in addition to any dividends collected before the stock was called.
In general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company. In the case of Innovative Industrial Properties Inc, looking at the dividend history chart for IIPR below can help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue, and in turn whether it is a reasonable expectation to expect a 13.7% annualized dividend yield.
Below is a chart showing IIPR's trailing twelve month trading history, with the $60 strike highlighted in red:
The chart above, and the stock's historical volatility, can be a helpful guide in combination with fundamental analysis to judge whether selling the October covered call at the $60 strike gives good reward for the risk of having given away the upside beyond $60. (Do most options expire worthless? This and six other common options myths debunked). We calculate the trailing twelve month volatility for Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (considering the last 250 trading day closing values as well as today's price of $55.35) to be 47%.

How To YieldBoost IIPR From 13.7% To 30.3% Using Options

Key Points
Exchange-traded funds typically hold baskets of stocks, but trade like individual equities.
The Invesco KBW Premium Yield Equity REIT ETF focuses on real estate investment trusts.
REITs are required to distribute most of their profits via dividends.
Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) have become quite popular in their three-plus decades of existence. There are now more publicly listed ETFs than there are individual stocks on the New York Stock Exchange. Similar to mutual funds, ETFs usually hold baskets of stocks or other assets, but they trade similarly to stocks. They are highly liquid, and owning them can be a more tax-efficient way to invest than holding mutual funds.
Each ETF is designed around a theme -- and that could be anything from tracking an index to focusing on one industry or type of stock. Many have portfolios that are intended to produce reliable dividends for income investors. But which ETF has the highest yield in 2025?
Where to invest $1,000 right now? Our analyst team just revealed what they believe are the 10 best stocks to buy right now. Continue »
This ETF holds stakes in many real estate investment trusts
At this point, investors can find ETFs to suit pretty much any investment strategy. Some track indexes, others are actively managed, and many deploy complex options strategies or leverage up on crypto bets. However, because many of those strategies result in funds that are not appropriate as long-term holdings, I'm excluding ETFs that use complex options strategies or make big crypto bets from my search.
Within the field of choices that remain, the highest-yielding ETF at the moment is the Invesco KBW Premium Yield Equity REIT ETF (NASDAQ: KBWY). It invests solely in real estate investment trusts (REITs) -- companies with special structures that enjoy tax advantages as long as they abide by the required policies. For instance, a REIT must distribute 90% of its taxable income to its shareholders each year through dividends. REITs also must invest at least 75% of their assets in real estate or cash, and receive at least 75% of their total income from real estate revenue, like rent, mortgage interest, real estate loans, or the sale of real estate assets.
Because of that payout requirement, REITs are viewed as strong dividend investments. However, their earnings and yields can fluctuate as the real estate market progresses through economic and interest rate cycles. KBWY's dividends have had their ups and downs, but it has had a strong average yield since launching in 2010. Currently, its yield is over 9.6%.
As of July 7, the ETF's top 10 holdings by weight were:
Brandywine Realty Trust focuses on urban and municipal transit-oriented developments. Innovative Industry Properties leases properties to companies in the cannabis sector. Community Healthcare Trust leases properties to hospitals and other healthcare providers, primarily in markets outside of major cities.
Is KBWY a buy?
Few ETFs that don't make use of super-aggressive investment strategies can match KBWY's yield. But in the world of dividends, investors should always take a skeptical approach to an unusually high yield -- sometimes, they're too good to last. And sometimes, they signal that an investment has other problems.
For example, since its inception, KBWY's net asset value (NAV) is only up about 4%. Now, part of that weak result can be attributed to the pandemic, which changed the ways people live and work, likely forever. As a result, many real estate stocks and REITs got hit hard and haven't recovered. That's reflected in KBWY's five-year performance. A lower interest rate environment, which many expect to start to materialize later this year, could help KBWY by lowering REITs' borrowing costs and improving conditions for the businesses that are leasing space.
Lower benchmark interest rates also reduce the amount that investors can earn from low-risk assets, which makes dividend investments more appealing.
However, one thing that worries me about KBWY is its high exposure to the office space and healthcare segments, both of which have been shaky since the pandemic, and which are still very much trying to find their footing.
Although KBWY's yields have been attractive since its inception, the dividend is likely to remain volatile, and it likely won't be this high forever. KBWY will keep churning out passive income for its shareholders, but I think there are more stable options out there that might be more prudent for income-focused investors.

Innovative Industrial Properties' Series A Preferred Stock Yield Pushes Past 9.5%

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, on 6/30/25, Host Hotels & Resorts Inc (Symbol: HST), Sun Communities Inc (Symbol: SUI), and Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (Symbol: IIPR) will all trade ex-dividend for their respective upcoming dividends. Host Hotels & Resorts Inc will pay its quarterly dividend of $0.20 on 7/15/25, Sun Communities Inc will pay its quarterly dividend of $1.04 on 7/15/25, and Innovative Industrial Properties Inc will pay its quarterly dividend of $1.90 on 7/15/25. As a percentage of HST's recent stock price of $15.50, this dividend works out to approximately 1.29%, so look for shares of Host Hotels & Resorts Inc to trade 1.29% lower — all else being equal — when HST shares open for trading on 6/30/25. Similarly, investors should look for SUI to open 0.82% lower in price and for IIPR to open 3.35% lower, all else being equal.
Below are dividend history charts for HST, SUI, and IIPR, showing historical dividends prior to the most recent ones declared.
Host Hotels & Resorts Inc (Symbol: HST):
Sun Communities Inc (Symbol: SUI):

In general, dividends are not always predictable, following the ups and downs of company profits over time. Therefore, a good first due diligence step in forming an expectation of annual yield going forward, is looking at the history above, for a sense of stability over time. This can help in judging whether the most recent dividends from these companies are likely to continue. If they do continue, the current estimated yields on annualized basis would be 5.16% for Host Hotels & Resorts Inc, 3.28% for Sun Communities Inc, and 13.39% for Innovative Industrial Properties Inc.
In Thursday trading, Host Hotels & Resorts Inc shares are currently down about 1.1%, Sun Communities Inc shares are down about 0.9%, and Innovative Industrial Properties Inc shares are off about 3.6% on the day.

Notable Wednesday Option Activity: IIPR, TOST, MATW

Looking at the universe of stocks we cover at Dividend Channel, in trading on Wednesday, shares of Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (Symbol: IIPR) were yielding above the 13% mark based on its quarterly dividend (annualized to $7.6), with the stock changing hands as low as $57.14 on the day. Dividends are particularly important for investors to consider, because historically speaking dividends have provided a considerable share of the stock market's total return. To illustrate, suppose for example you purchased shares of the iShares Russell 3000 ETF (IWV) back on 5/31/2000 — you would have paid $78.27 per share. Fast forward to 5/31/2012 and each share was worth $77.79 on that date, a loss of $0.48 or 0.6% decrease over twelve years. But now consider that you collected a whopping $10.77 per share in dividends over the same period, increasing your return to 13.15%. Even with dividends reinvested, that only amounts to an average annual total return of about 1.0%; so by comparison collecting a yield above 13% would appear considerably attractive if that yield is sustainable. Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (Symbol: IIPR) is a member of the Russell 3000, giving it special status as one of the largest 3000 companies on the U.S. stock markets.
In general, dividend amounts are not always predictable and tend to follow the ups and downs of profitability at each company. In the case of Innovative Industrial Properties Inc, looking at the history chart for IIPR below can help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue, and in turn whether it is a reasonable expectation to expect a 13% annual yield.

Innovative Industrial Properties (IIPR) Passes Through 13% Yield Mark

Innovative Industrial Properties Inc (Symbol: IIPR) has been named as a Top 10 Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT), according to Dividend Channel, which published its most recent ''DividendRank'' report. The report noted that among REITs, IIPR shares displayed both attractive valuation metrics and strong profitability metrics. For example, the recent IIPR share price of $56.87 represents a price-to-book ratio of 0.9 and an annual dividend yield of 13.36% — by comparison, the average stock in Dividend Channel's coverage universe yields 4.1% and trades at a price-to-book ratio of 2.5. The report also cited the strong quarterly dividend history at Innovative Industrial Properties Inc, and favorable long-term multi-year growth rates in key fundamental data points.
The report stated, ''Dividend investors approaching investing from a value standpoint are generally most interested in researching the strongest most profitable companies, that also happen to be trading at an attractive valuation. That's what we aim to find using our proprietary DividendRank formula, which ranks the coverage universe based upon our various criteria for both profitability and valuation, to generate a list of the top most 'interesting' stocks, meant for investors as a source of ideas that merit further research.''
REITs hold a special place in the hearts of dividend investors, because they must distribute at least 90% of their taxable income each year to shareholders as dividends. While this can make for a high dividend yield, it also introduces some volatility and uncertainty into the level of payments from year to year — huge dividend payouts are common when a REIT turns large profits, versus smaller payouts or even periods of no dividends in times of losses.
The current annualized dividend paid by Innovative Industrial Properties Inc is $7.6/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend has an upcoming ex-date of 06/30/2025. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for IIPR, which the report stressed as being of key importance. Indeed, studying a company's past dividend history can be of good help in judging whether the most recent dividend is likely to continue.

John Neff Portfolio
About John Neff: While known as the manager with whom many top managers entrusted their own money, Neff was far from the smooth-talking, high-profile Wall Streeter you might expect. He was mild-mannered and low-key, and the same might be said of the Windsor Fund that he managed for more than three decades. In fact, Neff himself described the fund as "relatively prosaic, dull, [and] conservative." There was nothing dull about his results, however. From 1964 to 1995, Neff guided Windsor to a 13.7 percent average annual return, easily outpacing the S&P 500's 10.6 percent return during that time. That 3.1 percentage point difference is huge over time -- a $10,000 investment in Windsor (with dividends reinvested) at the start of Neff's tenure would have ended up as more than $564,000 by the time he retired, more than twice what the same investment in the S&P would have yielded (about $233,000). Considering the length of his tenure, that track record may be the best ever for a manager of such a large fund.
