The Dividend Harvesting Portfolio achieved a 42.41% return on invested capital, now yielding $3,037 in forward annualized dividends (7.78% yield, 11.08% yield on cost).

In an environment where the risk free rate of return is between 4-5% Altria Groups dividend yield of close to 6% is very appealing. After going through Altria's Q1 2026 earnings, my conviction has been reinforced as the company delivered a clean margin-driven beat. I remain long MO and believe it is still undervalued at roughly 14 times FCF with a near-6% dividend yield especially given the wide valuation gap to PM.
MO's diversified portfolio, including discount and premium segments, enables it to capture both price-sensitive and affluent consumers, supporting stable market share despite changing demand. Their robust pricing power, margin expansion, and shareholder-friendly capital returns at over 80% of FCF underpin their attractive valuations, aided by the healthier balance sheet. The stock trades at discounted P/E of 12.77x while offering inflation-beating dividend yields of 5.86% and excellent upside potential to my bull-case LTPT of $88.80.
