Monday Is Your Last Chance To Buy Easterly Government Props Before The Dividend Payout
Monday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Easterly Government Props (NYSE:DEA).
What's Happening
The company announced on Wednesday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 26.5 cents per share. On Tuesday, Easterly Government Props will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 26.5 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, Tuesday. Shareholders who own DEA as of the end of Monday's session are eligible to receive the 26.5 cents dividend payout for every share that they own.
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on March 18, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.
