Strong recurring revenues, high projected growth, a 20% dividend increase and a commitment to fast dividend growth, a strong cash position and no debt as of Q1/14, low payout ratio, and a reasonable valuation. In their annual meeting they actually said they plan to grow the dividend faster than earnings for several years, so I think now is the time to get in before they become a 3% yielding, slow growth blue chip.
All reasons why I took the plunge last spring. Long since last March at about $67.
