Shareholders who hold SVBT stock before a specific cutoff will receive a cash payment of 28 cents per share. That cutoff is the ex-dividend date, the calendar day after which a new buyer of the stock is no longer entitled to the upcoming payment. SVBT has set that date at December 15, 2026, with the cash scheduled to reach shareholders on January 15, 2027.
The record date, meaning the day the company formally identifies which shareholders qualify for the distribution, is also December 15, 2026. Each shareholder confirmed on that date will receive 28 cents for every share they hold.
SVBT pays dividends on a quarterly schedule. That means shareholders receive cash distributions four times per year, and this declared payment is one installment in that ongoing cycle, not a one-time event.
For anyone tracking this specific payment, December 15, 2026 is the operative date. Shares purchased on or after that day will not carry entitlement to the January 15, 2027 distribution.
