YES, I would consider buying the convertible preferred stock.
The possible advantages to buying convertible preferred stock, and points to support the above decision are summarised below:
Double Benefit: Convertible Preferred Shareholders receive the benefit of General Preferred Stock until the point of conversion. Upon conversion, holders will receive all profits of the common stock.
Preference Over Common Shareholders: Preferred shareholders have priority over common shareholders with respect to the payment of dividends. In other words, common stockholders do not receive dividends unless preferred stockholders are paid dividends first.
>Fixed Dividend Income: Typically, the dividend rate is predefined and fixed to the preferred shareholders, with no uncertainty about the income received. For example, preferred stock is issued at a dividend rate of "2%..." or "$2 per share".
> Ordinary Income: Preferred shareholders receive regular dividend income even if no profits are distributed. Delinquency in dividends is cumulative (for cumulative preferred stock) if there is a shortfall in earnings. But common stocks don't pay dividends unless they make a profit.
> Low Risk: The amount of dividend income and payouts are fixed, so the risk is significantly lower than common stock.
> Benefits of conversion into common stock: Once these shares are converted, holders are entitled to voting rights, increased earnings, and investment growth as the common stock enjoys these benefits.
