Community Trust Bancorp's board has raised the bank holding company's quarterly dividend by nearly 23%, to 65 cents a share from 53 cents, and declared a 6-cent special dividend.
The new quarterly payout, equal to $2.60 a year, represents an annual yield of about 3.33% based on Tuesday's closing price of $78.12, up from 2.71%.
The Pikeville, Ky., company on Wednesday said both dividends are payable Oct. 1 to shareholders of record Sept. 15.
Community Trust has now raised its dividend for 46 straight years.
