The stock will then go ex-dividend 1 business day(s) before the record date. The ex-dividend date for Universal Logistics Hldgs is set for December 4, 2020. The company's current dividend payout sits at $0.1, equating to a dividend yield of 2.1% at current price levels.

The Significance Of An Ex-Dividend Date

Ex-dividend dates signal when company shares cease to trade with their current dividend payouts. There is a small intermission period before companies announce new dividends. 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.

Universal Logistics Hldgs's Dividend Performance

Over the past year, Universal Logistics Hldgs has seen its dividend payouts remain the same and its yields climb upward overall.

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.
