Dividend Power Score
A single, comprehensive score designed to measure the true strength of a company’s dividend.
This score combines three essential pillars of dividend quality:
Consistency – Measures how reliable the dividend has been over time, focusing on payment history, stability, and the absence of cuts or suspensions.
Payability – Assesses the company’s financial ability to sustain its dividend, taking into account cash flow, earnings coverage, balance sheet strength, and overall financial health.
Growth – Evaluates the long-term growth of both the dividend and the company’s share price, highlighting businesses that consistently increase payouts while creating shareholder value.
Higher scores identify companies that have historically delivered dependable income alongside sustained dividend growth and long-term capital appreciation.
Company Overview
QuoteMedia, Inc. is a financial technology company that provides real-time and delayed market data, financial information, and digital tools to the global financial services industry. The company operates primarily within the financial market data, investment technology, and digital media solutions industries, serving broker-dealers, banks, fintech platforms, publicly traded companies, and online financial publishers.
The company’s core revenue drivers are subscription-based market data services, enterprise software solutions, and investor relations tools delivered under long-term contracts. QuoteMedia is positioned as a cost-effective alternative to larger market data providers by offering flexible licensing, integrated technology platforms, and customizable solutions. Founded in 1999, QuoteMedia evolved from a market data distributor into a vertically integrated provider of data aggregation, analytics, charting, and investor engagement solutions through organic development and targeted acquisitions.
Business Operations
QuoteMedia generates revenue through two primary business segments: Market Data Solutions and Investor Engagement & Media Solutions. The Market Data Solutions segment provides real-time and delayed equity, options, and index data, charting tools, APIs, and analytics to financial institutions, online brokerages, and fintech platforms. The Investor Engagement & Media Solutions segment delivers investor relations websites, press release distribution, earnings webcasts, and regulatory disclosure tools primarily to publicly listed companies.
Operations are supported by proprietary data aggregation technology, cloud-based delivery infrastructure, and long-term exchange data agreements. QuoteMedia conducts business through its wholly owned subsidiaries QuoteMedia Canada, Inc. and QMW, Inc., which support data licensing, technology development, and international client servicing. Data inconclusive based on available public sources regarding material joint ventures beyond wholly owned subsidiaries.
Strategic Position & Investments
QuoteMedia’s strategy focuses on recurring subscription revenue, deeper integration with client platforms, and expansion of its software-as-a-service offerings. Growth initiatives emphasize cross-selling market data products with investor relations services, increasing wallet share among existing financial institution clients, and enhancing data delivery through APIs and cloud-based solutions.
The company has historically pursued selective acquisitions to expand product capabilities and customer reach, including the acquisition of Acquire Media to strengthen press release distribution and disclosure services. QuoteMedia continues to invest in data normalization, real-time analytics, and scalable delivery infrastructure to support emerging fintech platforms and digital brokerage models. Data inconclusive based on available public sources regarding material investments in emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence beyond incremental platform enhancements.
Geographic Footprint
QuoteMedia is headquartered in North America, with its corporate headquarters located in Canada and significant operations in the United States. The company maintains a strong presence across North America, which represents its primary revenue base, serving U.S. and Canadian financial institutions, publicly traded companies, and digital publishers.
Internationally, QuoteMedia provides market data and investor engagement solutions to clients in Europe, Asia-Pacific, and other global markets through licensing agreements and digital distribution channels. While international operations contribute to revenue diversification, the majority of operational influence and customer concentration remains centered in North America based on available public disclosures.
Leadership & Governance
QuoteMedia is led by an executive team with experience in financial technology, market data services, and digital media platforms. The leadership philosophy emphasizes disciplined capital allocation, recurring revenue growth, and long-term client relationships supported by proprietary technology and regulatory compliance.
Key executives include:
- Robert J. Thompson – President and Chief Executive Officer
- Bill Connell – Chief Financial Officer
- Keith Hodgson – Chief Technology Officer
- Glenn Hall – Vice President, Sales
The company operates under a board-governed structure typical of publicly traded firms, with oversight of strategy, risk management, and financial reporting aligned with applicable U.S. and Canadian regulatory requirements.
