Our predicted date is Wednesday, December 16. This is when we
expect Investar Holding Corp to declare its next dividend, not when the stock goes
ex-dividend — we publish this estimate as early as about three months before the board is
expected to meet.

We hold 48 payments for it, going back to October 2014 — the full record is below, with what it has paid and when, and how far ahead of each ex-date it declares. We don't publish a predicted next ex-dividend date for ISTR. As soon as the company declares one it will appear at the top of this page; until then the record below is what we hold.
