NASDAQ:BFST ) is about to trade ex-dividend in the next 3 days. The ex-dividend date is usually set to be one business day before the record date which is the cut-off date on which you must be present on the company's books as a shareholder in order to receive the dividend. The ex-dividend date is important as the process of settlement involves two full business days. So if you miss that date, you would not show up on the company's books on the record date. Thus, you can purchase Business First Bancshares' shares before the 14th of May in order to receive the dividend, which the company will pay on the 31st of May. The company's upcoming dividend is US$0.14 a share, following on from the last 12 months, when the company distributed a total of US$0.56 per share to shareholders. Based on the last year's worth of payments, Business First Bancshares has a trailing yield of 2.6% on the current stock price of US$21.48.
