NEUTRAL IMPACT
Ohio Valley Banc's announcement of a 22 cents per share dividend may cause the stock to open lower on the ex-dividend date. However, this is a regular part of the dividend process and not a reflection of the company's performance.
The announcement of a dividend often leads to a decrease in the stock's price on the ex-dividend date. This is because the stock price is adjusted to reflect the payout. However, this is a normal part of the dividend process and does not indicate a problem with the company's performance. Shareholders who own the stock before the ex-dividend date are eligible for the dividend.
