Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE:VSH) Passed Our Checks, And It's About To Pay A US$0.10 Dividend

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. (NYSE:VSH) stock is about to trade ex-dividend in 4 days. The ex-dividend date is one business day before the record date, which is the cut-off date for shareholders to be present on the company's books to be eligible for a dividend payment. It is important to be aware of the ex-dividend date because any trade on the stock needs to have been settled on or before the record date. Accordingly, Vishay Intertechnology investors that purchase the stock on or after the 29th of November will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 15th of December.

The company's upcoming dividend is US$0.10 a share, following on from the last 12 months, when the company distributed a total of US$0.40 per share to shareholders. Calculating the last year's worth of payments shows that Vishay Intertechnology has a trailing yield of 1.8% on the current share price of $22.64. We love seeing companies pay a dividend, but it's also important to be sure that laying the golden eggs isn't going to kill our golden goose! That's why we should always check whether the dividend payments appear sustainable, and if the company is growing.
