NEUTRAL IMPACT
United Fire Gr's announcement of a 16 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.
