A company library beyond the model portfolio.
Explore Dividend Stocks brings the research library together. Find a company by name or ticker and open its individual profile.
A company’s presence in the library does not mean it belongs to the Fly High 50. The model portfolio is a separate Pro feature.
Public visitors can read introductions. Free membership opens current core facts, including company-specific reported earnings, the latest declared dividend, payment frequency and source information.

What is the Fly High 50 - Model Portfolio about?
The Fly High 50 - Model Portfolio shows how we put our income-investing approach into practice: seek high-yield dividends supported by company earnings, then use that income or reinvest it to compound over time. We follow changes in earning power and dividend coverage across the portfolio. Members use the model as a research guide and remain in control of their own investments.

Your company research
1 Introduction Public
Get oriented: what the company does, how its business earns income and where to look next. Begin here before interpreting a high yield.
2 Core Data Free and above
Read the latest reported company-specific earnings, declared dividend and payment frequency. Check the period and source date. These reported facts are distinct from the four-quarter earnings estimate used in Fly High’s dividend-coverage analysis.
3 Charts & Analysis Plus and Pro
Look beyond a single observation. Explore the available company history and deeper details, then follow the underlying reports and news. Available measures differ by company type and source coverage.
4 Reports and context Plus and Pro
Use Annual & Quarterly Reports and company news to investigate changes in earning power. Fly High uses the earnings measure the company identifies as the source of its dividend. Measures such as NII and AFFO are not interchangeable.
Earnings Fixes Everything
Earnings are the economic source of dividends and Fly High’s primary monitoring signal. Start with the company’s dividend-source earnings, check the reporting periods, then examine how estimated earnings support the included dividends.
How does Fly High estimate dividend support?
We combine the two most recently reported quarters of actual company-specific earnings with the next two quarters of comparable, independent analyst consensus estimates. Dividend Coverage Ratio is that four-quarter earnings estimate divided by annualized included dividends, using consistent per-share units.
Included dividends are regular dividends plus supplementals paid regularly; irregular special dividends are excluded. We refresh the estimate after each earnings release and the ratio when included dividends change. Coverage measures estimated support, not a guarantee.
04 / The model portfolio Pro
The Fly High 50, with the story behind it.
The model puts our earnings-first income approach into practice. Pro connects its holdings, continuing updates and historical record so you can follow both the income and the earning power supporting it.
The portfolio
See the Fly High 50 - Model Portfolio and move from the model to individual company research.
Explore Pro accessThe weekly explanation
Read Weekend Updates to follow portfolio developments, changes in earning power and what they mean for dividend support.
Explore Pro accessThe longer record
Use performance, earnings and dividend histories to examine the model across time. Fly High judges the earnings-estimation method primarily across the portfolio, rather than claiming indefinite forecasts for individual companies.
Explore Pro accessWhat does Pro add to Plus?
Plus provides deeper company research, historical charts, reports and member tools. Pro adds the Fly High 50 roster, model portfolio updates and histories, plus Advanced Insights. The live model and protected articles stay on their member pages.

06 / Make it your own
Your portfolio. Your assumptions.
Keep your saved companies separate from the Fly High 50. Use tools to explore scenarios and see what changes when your assumptions change.
Illustrated workflow · no personal holdings displayed
- Save a companyUse the small “In my portfolio” checkbox where available.
- Manage your portfoliosName up to three portfolios, add or remove companies and edit quantities.
- Choose what to loadSelect a portfolio or holding when a tool offers that option.
- Explore a scenarioAdjust the assumptions and compare the results.
Does a calculator change my holdings?
Using a scenario tool does not place a brokerage trade. My Portfolio is your saved research workspace. Flight Checks do not automatically load it; choose a portfolio explicitly when that option is offered.
Plus and Pro · subject to site settings
Keep the companies you want to revisit.
My Portfolio gives your saved selections a home. Its visibility follows the site’s current membership settings, so the checkbox and portfolio links appear only when your account is eligible.
My Portfolio appears when it is enabled for your membership in the site settings.Explore Plus access
Start with a Flight Check.
Public Flight Checks let you explore income questions with your own assumptions. Plus and Pro add Flight Planner, Turbulence Lab, Instrument Panel and Income Radar when those tools are enabled.
Try Flight ChecksWhat should I pay attention to?
Notice the assumptions behind each result. Where a tool supports them, try lower income, a larger cash need or a different allocation. These planning scenarios complement company research; they do not replace Fly High’s earnings-based dividend-coverage analysis or predict future results.
