Investors can opt to have their dividends reinvested to buy shares.
RPM pays a 13-cent quarterly dividend. Pretty soon, your dividends earn dividends. The Andersons quickly learned the value of reinvesting their dividends. So we'd end up spending it. Now, we put the money right back into the company and let it compound.
