Uwharrie Capital Corp announced on October 20, 2026, that its Board of Directors has approved a 3% common stock dividend. The dividend is scheduled to be paid on November 23, 2026.
Shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 5, 2026, will be eligible to receive the distribution. The stock dividend will be issued in electronic book-entry form, with no physical stock certificates being produced. A statement will be provided to shareholders reflecting the additional shares credited to their accounts.
For investors holding shares through brokerage accounts, the dividend shares will be credited directly to those accounts. The company stated that only whole shares will be issued. In the event a shareholder would otherwise receive a fractional share, they will instead be paid cash in lieu of that fractional amount. This cash payment may be delivered via check or electronic deposit, depending on the shareholder's preference.
Uwharrie Capital Corp provides financial solutions through its subsidiaries, Uwharrie Bank and Uwharrie Investment Advisors. The company is headquartered in Albemarle, North Carolina.
