Advance Auto Parts (AAP, $120.34) is expected to pay dividends on April 28, 2023, with a dividend of $1.5 per share. The record date for the dividend is also April 28, 2023, and the ex-dividend date is April 13, 2023. This means that in order to receive the dividend, investors must purchase AAP shares before the ex-dividend date.
It's important to note that the ex-dividend date is typically set a few business days before the record date. This is because the settlement process for stock transactions takes a few days, and the record date is when the company finalizes its list of shareholders who are eligible to receive the dividend. If you purchase AAP shares on or after the ex-dividend date, you will not be eligible to receive the upcoming dividend payment, and instead, the dividend will be retained by the seller.
Investors who are interested in receiving the dividend should consider purchasing AAP shares before the ex-dividend date of April 13, 2023. By doing so, they will be considered shareholders of record on the record date of April 28, 2023, and will be eligible to receive the $1.5 per share dividend.
