Friday Is Your Last Chance To Buy HBT Finl Before The Dividend Payout

Friday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from HBT Finl HBT.

What's Happening

The company announced on Tuesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 19 cents per share. On Monday, HBT Finl will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 19 cents lower than it would have opened on any other day.

In order to be eligible to receive a company's dividend, shareholders must own the stock prior to the ex-dividend date—in this case, Monday. Shareholders who own HBT as of the end of Friday's session are eligible to receive the 19 cents dividend payout for every share that they own.

According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on February 13, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.
