Special dividends
Payments well outside FMAO's regular rate. These are one-offs — they are excluded from the growth figures above, and they are not assumed to recur, so they do not feed the predicted dates.

Frequently asked questions
- Do I need to own FMAO before the ex-dividend date?
- Yes. You must already hold the shares when trading opens on the ex-dividend date to receive the payment. Buying on the ex-date itself is too late — the seller keeps that dividend. See ex-date vs record date vs payment date for how the dates fit together.

- Farmers & Merchants Bancorp Inc has historically paid quarterly, across 82 payments since March 2006.
- How much does FMAO pay per share?
- The most recent payment was $0.23 per share, with an ex-date of July 10, 2026. At that rate and frequency the indicated annual dividend is $0.92 a share. This is the cash amount, not a yield — a yield depends on the share price you pay.
