Friday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Pathward Financial (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CASH#NASDAQ">CASH</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Thursday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 5 cents per share. On Monday, Pathward Financial will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 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, Monday. Shareholders who own CASH as of the end of Friday's session are eligible to receive the 5 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. 
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on April 01, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.

Stable Payouts, Increasing Performance: Pathward Financial Supports Investors with Growing Earnings

Piper Sandler Maintains Overweight on Pathward Financial, Raises Price Target to $69

Friday marks the last chance for investors to receive the next dividend payout from Pathward Financial (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CASH#NASDAQ">CASH</a>). 
<h3>What's Happening</h3>
The company announced on Thursday that it would pay shareholders a quarterly dividend of 5 cents per share. On Monday, Pathward Financial will go ex-dividend, meaning the stock will trade lower to reflect that payout. In other words, the stock will likely open 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, Monday. Shareholders who own CASH as of the end of Friday's session are eligible to receive the 5 cents dividend payout for every share that they own. 
According to the company, this dividend will be paid out to shareholders on January 02, 2024. Investors will then be able to either reinvest those dividends back into the stock or use the payment in some other way.

William Glen Herrick, EVP at Pathward Financial (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CASH#NASDAQ">CASH</a>), reported a large insider sell on November 21, according to a new SEC filing. 
What Happened: A Form 4 filing from the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/0000907471/000090747123000140//Archives/edgar/data/907471/000090747123000140/0000907471-23-000140-index.htm">U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission</a> on Tuesday showed that Herrick sold 5,970 shares of Pathward Financial.

<h3>The Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Insider transactions shouldn't be used primarily to make an investing decision, however, they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Important Transaction Codes</h3>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">Investors</a> prefer focusing on transactions that take place in the open market, indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S indicates a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A indicates the insider may have been forced to sell shares in order to receive compensation that had been promised upon being hired by the company.
