A $0.20 per share cash dividend is in focus for OPY, with August 14, 2026 fixed as both the ex-dividend and record date. The payment is scheduled for August 28. Holders have the sessions ahead to establish a qualifying position before the cutoff.

The declared distribution

The $0.20 per share figure is a cash payment on a quarterly schedule. That is the only per-share number in the declaration. No forward guidance on the rate for subsequent periods appears in the filing, and no change to the schedule is indicated.

The ex-dividend date and the record date share August 14. That alignment creates one definitive line: a shareholder on record before August 14 receives the $0.20; anyone who establishes a position on that date or later does not. The company has until August 28 to process the register and distribute the cash to qualifying holders.

The 14 calendar days between the record date and the payment date are standard processing time. Once the shareholder list is locked as of August 14, the payment queue builds toward the August 28 distribution.

Reading the cadence

A quarterly schedule places OPY on a recurring distribution rhythm. Each payment requires its own board declaration. The current announcement covers only the August cycle, with no rate guidance for what follows.

For investors already holding shares, the $0.20 print is locked in for August 28. For anyone sizing an income position in OPY, the sessions ahead of August 14 are the window. Shares purchased on August 14 itself fall outside the qualifying window regardless of settlement timing.

The quarterly designation also means the next declaration cycle falls roughly a quarter out from the current record date. That next announcement will carry its own ex-date, record date, and per-share figure.

What to watch

August 28 is the next fixed milestone: the date the $0.20 per share cash payment reaches qualifying shareholders. After that clears, the item to track is OPY's next quarterly board declaration, which sets the terms for the following cycle. The current filing offers no forward rate or timing commitments beyond August 28.
