In this series, we look through the most recent Dividend Channel ''DividendRank'' report, and then we cherry pick only those companies that have experienced insider buying within the past six months. The officers and directors of a company tend to have a unique insider's view of the business, and presumably the only reason an insider would choose to take their hard-earned cash and use it to buy stock in the open market, is that they expect to make money — maybe they find the stock very undervalued, or maybe they see exciting progress within the company, or maybe both. So when stocks turn up that see insider buying, and are also top ranked, investors are wise to take notice. One such company is Sinclair Inc (Symbol: SBGI), which saw buying by Executive Chairman David D. Smith.
Back on April 9, Smith invested $2,481,354.79 into 185,145 shares of SBGI, for a cost per share of $13.40. In trading on Thursday, shares were changing hands as low as $14.00 per share, which is 4.5% above Smith's purchase price. Sinclair Inc shares are currently trading -2.93% on the day. The chart below shows the one year performance of SBGI shares, versus its 200 day moving average:
Looking at the chart above, SBGI's low point in its 52 week range is $11.13 per share, with $18.455 as the 52 week high point — that compares with a last trade of $15.36. By comparison, below is a table showing the prices at which insider buying was recorded over the last six months:
The DividendRank report noted that among the coverage universe, SBGI shares displayed both attractive valuation metrics and strong profitability metrics. For example, the recent SBGI share price of $15.69 represents a price-to-book ratio of 1.8 and an annual dividend yield of 6.37% — by comparison, the average company in Dividend Channel's coverage universe yields 5.0% and trades at a price-to-book ratio of 2.5. The report also cited the strong quarterly dividend history at Sinclair 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.''
The annualized dividend paid by Sinclair Inc is $1/share, currently paid in quarterly installments, and its most recent dividend ex-date was on 05/30/2025. Below is a long-term dividend history chart for SBGI, 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.

Looking at the underlying holdings of the ETFs in our coverage universe at ETF Channel, we have compared the trading price of each holding against the average analyst 12-month forward target price, and computed the weighted average implied analyst target price for the ETF itself. For the Vanguard Communication Services ETF (Symbol: VOX), we found that the implied analyst target price for the ETF based upon its underlying holdings is $154.51 per unit.
With VOX trading at a recent price near $138.94 per unit, that means that analysts see 11.20% upside for this ETF looking through to the average analyst targets of the underlying holdings. Three of VOX's underlying holdings with notable upside to their analyst target prices are Taboola.com (Symbol: TBLA), Skillz Inc (Symbol: SKLZ), and Sinclair Inc (Symbol: SBGI). Although TBLA has traded at a recent price of $3.45/share, the average analyst target is 71.48% higher at $5.92/share. Similarly, SKLZ has 50.19% upside from the recent share price of $6.88 if the average analyst target price of $10.33/share is reached, and analysts on average are expecting SBGI to reach a target price of $17.62/share, which is 32.05% above the recent price of $13.34. Below is a twelve month price history chart comparing the stock performance of TBLA, SKLZ, and SBGI:
Below is a summary table of the current analyst target prices discussed above:
Are analysts justified in these targets, or overly optimistic about where these stocks will be trading 12 months from now? Do the analysts have a valid justification for their targets, or are they behind the curve on recent company and industry developments? A high price target relative to a stock's trading price can reflect optimism about the future, but can also be a precursor to target price downgrades if the targets were a relic of the past. These are questions that require further investor research.

Feb 21 (Reuters) - HF Sinclair DINO.N beat Wall Street estimates for fourth-quarter profit on Wednesday, helped by healthy refining margins and resilient fuel demand.
U.S. refiners' earnings normalized throughout last year, after hitting sky-high levels in 2022, when Russia's invasion of Ukraine disrupted crude supplies.
HF Sinclair's consolidated gross refining margin fell to $13.88 per barrel of throughput in the fourth quarter, from $23.47 a year earlier.
The Dallas-based company posted an adjusted profit of 87 cents per share for the quarter, compared to analysts' estimates of 72 cents per share, according to LSEG data.
