Wednesday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Amcon Distributing (AMEX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIT#AMEX">DIT</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Tuesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 18 cents per share. On Thursday, Amcon Distributing will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 18 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, Thursday. Shareholders who own DIT as of the end of Wednesday's session are eligible to receive the 18 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. 
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on February 12, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.

<h3>What Defines a Value Stock?</h3>
A value stock traditionally has a lower price when compared to stock prices of companies in the same industry. This indicates that the company may be undervalued, as investors are not expressing as much interest in such companies. The most commonly used way to check for value is with the price-to-earnings multiple, or P/E. A low P/E multiple is a good indication that the stock is undervalued. 
<h2>The following stocks are considered to be notable value stocks in the consumer defensive sector:</h2>
<ol>
<li>S&amp;W Seed (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SANW#NASDAQ">SANW</a>) - P/E: 4.88</li>
<li>Sunlands Technology (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STG#NYSE">STG</a>) - P/E: 1.09</li>

<li>Chegg (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHGG#NYSE">CHGG</a>) - P/E: 8.27</li>
</ol>
S&amp;W Seed has reported Q3 earnings per share at $-0.07, which has increased by 46.15% compared to Q2, which was -0.13. Most recently, Sunlands Technology reported earnings per share at $1.73, whereas in Q1 earnings per share sat at $1.9. This quarter, Cal-Maine Foods experienced a decrease in earnings per share, which was $6.62 in Q3 and is now $2.27. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 6.73%, which has decreased by 9.19% from 15.92% last quarter. 
Most recently, Amcon Distributing reported earnings per share at $6.59, whereas in Q2 earnings per share sat at $3.49. The company's most recent dividend yield sits at 0.31%, which has decreased by 0.08% from 0.39% last quarter. 
Chegg's earnings per share for Q2 sits at $0.28, whereas in Q1, they were at 0.27. 
The Significance: A value stock may need some time to rebound from its undervalued position. The risk of investing in a value stock is that this emergence may never materialize.
