Why I Love This Stock |

Blum Capital is urging EFII to return $100 million (approximately $2 a share), to stockholders through a one-time dividend, as soon as reasonably practicable. Blum had been privately advocating this dividend since the company announced the sale of its real-estate assets, which brought in approximately $100 million, after taxes. The investor favors a dividend over a share repurchase, due to the rise in EFII's share price this year and the lack of liquidity in the common stock. If this were 2007, getting the company to pay a special dividend would have been a slam-dunk. But in this economy, with the severe tightening of the debt markets, many conservative stockholders might support the company's holding on to its cash. |

Hedge fund Blum Capital wants the digital-printing firm to return $100 million to shareholders via a one-time dividend. The money, Blum says, represents the after-tax equivalent of the proceeds from Electronics For Imaging's sale of California real-estate assets to Gilead Sciences (GILD) this year and is "excess liquidity." The firm said that a dividend of roughly $2.00 a share would effectively yield 18% and would be more beneficial to shareholders, and easier to implement, than continued stock repurchases. "Moreover, we note that while the company's current share-repurchase program involves fees and/or commissions, a special dividend requires no ancillary costs for the company to execute," wrote John Park, partner and co-chief investment officer at Blum, in a Sept. 28 letter to Electronics For Imaging's board. The company had about $279 million in cash and equivalents, and no debt as of June 30. Blum owns 4,619,906 shares (9.4% of the total outstanding). |
