FirstCash Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:FCFS) is about to trade ex-dividend in the next four days. The ex-dividend date occurs one day before the record date which is the day on which shareholders need to be on the company's books in order to receive a dividend. The ex-dividend date is an important date to be aware of as any purchase of the stock made on or after this date might mean a late settlement that doesn't show on the record date. Therefore, if you purchase FirstCash Holdings' shares on or after the 14th of November, you won't be eligible to receive the dividend, when it is paid on the 30th of November.
The company's next dividend payment will be US$0.35 per share. Last year, in total, the company distributed US$1.40 to shareholders. Last year's total dividend payments show that FirstCash Holdings has a trailing yield of 1.3% on the current share price of $109.07. Dividends are an important source of income to many shareholders, but the health of the business is crucial to maintaining those dividends. As a result, readers should always check whether FirstCash Holdings has been able to grow its dividends, or if the dividend might be cut.
