    Span-America Medical Systems, Inc. announced that the Board has declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.08 per share to be paid on June 6, 2007, to shareholders of record on May 23, 2007. This regular dividend represents a 78% increase over the regular dividend paid this time last year

    FIZ - RCNI - CDL - SWS dividends to be paid and not listed here.

    If I buy the Span-America Medical Systems on 5/29/07, do I receive the $5.00 special dividend?
    Please let me know.
    Thanks

    Yes, 5/29 is before 6/7.

    FIZ is a 4:5 split, not a cash dividend.

  5. JIM Says:

    There is some confusion as to record date for special $5. dividend. Is it 5/23/07 or 6/7/07?

  6. john Says:

    Record date means nothing, X date is the only one that counts.
