Avatar photo

Central Pacific Financial Corp (NYSE: CPF) is scheduled to go ex-dividend on August 31, 2026, for a dividend of $0.30 per share, following a payment date of September 15, 2026. Historically, CPF has shown a pattern of stock price increases prior to ex-dividend dates, with notable gains of $4.39 in capital gains across its last four dividends, which totalled $1.13.

On May 29, 2026, CPF experienced a price increase of $1.07 in the two weeks leading up to its previous dividend payout. Investors are now anticipating whether this trend will continue leading up to the upcoming dividend, which has an implied annualized yield of 3.10%.

CPF’s price per share closed at $34.73 on May 28, 2026, one day before its last ex-dividend date, after rising from $33.66 on May 13, 2026. This pattern suggests a potential ‘Dividend Run,’ a strategy where investors buy shares before ex-dividend dates to capitalize on expected price increases.
