Prospects for dividends at Baldwin Loco Works
The main hurdle to declaring dividends on Baldwin Locomotive Works common stock is a large floating debt of 8.25 million after a 2.75 million reduction. Some talk of issuing 10 to 15 million in short term notes could delay dividends, while strong earnings in 1917 show 34.53 per share versus 6.10 in 1916. Orders on hand suggest sustained high earnings, with potential dividends when debt and financing are managed.
