The one area of concern I'd have with TGH is its rising debt expense.

In its last annual it reported $44.9mil., compared to only $18.2mil and $11.8mil. in the prior 2 years.

The sum of its debt expense in its last 3 Quarterlies is = $(14.7+18.5+19.4)mil. = $52.6mil. which is already $7.7mil. ahead of $44.9mil.

If TGH reports, say, $20mil. of debt expense in its Q4 that will give about $72mil., which will be a sizeable increase over its 2011 Annual debt expense and a big chunk off its Bottom Line, from which comes that dividend.

< The company has raised its dividend for 11 straight quarters. > 11 quarters is not enough of a history for me. But that's just me. We all have different goals and strategies to achieve those goals, so none of us is necessarily right or wrong, just different.
