Northway Financial, Inc. Announces Stock Dividend
(firmenpresse) - NORTH CONWAY, NH -- (Marketwired) -- 05/09/13 -- The Board of Directors of Northway Financial, Inc. (the "Company") (OTCBB: NWYF) has declared a special common stock dividend of 5.0%, payable on May 30, 2013 to shareholders of record on May 22, 2013.
With three consecutive years of record earnings serving as the foundation for this decision, the issuance of the stock dividend reflects the Company's interest in both thanking its shareholders for their continued long-term support, as well as to enhance the liquidity of its common stock. It is furthermore anticipated that the regular semi-annual cash dividend paid in 2012, having been increased 22% over the dividend paid in the preceding year, will continue to be paid on the February/August cycle. Based on the last available closing price of the Company's common stock, available through brokers and traded on the Over the Counter Bulletin Board Exchange, the annualized cash dividend yield is approximately 4.0%.
The cost basis of the stock dividend will be calculated using the average closing price of the Company's stock for the last ten days on which there were trades immediately preceding the record date.
