On July 8, 2021, High Income Securities (NYSE:PCF) announced shareholders can expect to receive a dividend payable on August 31, 2021. The stock will then go ex-dividend 1 business day(s) before the record date. The ex-dividend date for High Income Securities is set for August 19, 2021. The company's current dividend payout sits at $0.08, equating to a dividend yield of 9.43% at current price levels.
Ex-dividend dates are when company shares stop trading with their current dividend payouts in preparation for those companies to announce new ones. Usually, a company's ex-dividend date falls one business day before its record date. Investors should keep this in mind when purchasing stocks because buying them on or after ex-dividend dates does not qualify them to receive the declared payment. Newly declared dividends go to shareholders who have owned that stock before the ex-dividend date. Most ex-dividend dates operate on a quarterly basis.
Over the past year, High Income Securities has seen its dividend payouts remain the same and its yields trend downward. Last year on May 18, 2021 the company's payout sat at $0.08, which has returned to its value today. High Income Securities's dividend yield last year was 10.65%, which has since decreased by 1.22%.
Companies use dividend yields in different strategic ways. Some companies may opt to not give yields altogether to reinvest in themselves. Other companies may opt to increase or decrease their yield amounts to control how their shares circulate throughout the stock market.
