Fastenal Company Announces Cash Dividend
Fastenal Company (Nasdaq:FAST) reported its board of directors declared a dividend of
Fastenal began paying annual dividends in 1991, semi-annual dividends in 2003, and then expanded to quarterly dividends in 2011. In addition to these regular dividend payments, Fastenal has previously paid special one-time dividends in December 2008, December 2012, and December 2020. Our board of directors currently intends to continue paying quarterly dividends, though all future determination as to payment of dividends will depend upon the financial condition and results of operations of the company and such other factors as are deemed relevant by the board of directors, such as income tax rates related to dividends at that time.
In 2021, 2020, and 2019, we paid (or declared) dividends as follows:
