Board of Directors declare fourth quarter dividend of $0.31 per share, subject to merger closing
St. Jude Medical, Inc. (NYSE:STJ), a global medical device company, today announced that its Board of Directors declared a fourth quarter dividend of $0.31 per common share of the Company’s stock. This dividend amount is equal to the dividend paid during the first, second and third quarters of 2016 and brings the total dividend declared for the year to $1.24 per share. The dividend is payable January 31, 2017, to shareholders of record at the close of business on January 13, 2017, provided that the Company’s pending merger with Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) is not effective before the close of business on the record date.
Abbott has fixed the same record date for its regular quarterly dividend. Accordingly, if St. Jude Medical’s pending merger with Abbott is effective before the close of business on such record date, no St. Jude Medical dividend would be paid, and St. Jude Medical’s shareholders would receive the Abbott dividend on the Abbott shares they receive in the merger and continue to hold on such record date. If St. Jude Medical’s pending merger with Abbott is effective after the close of business on such record date, St. Jude Medical’s shareholders would receive the St. Jude Medical dividend and would not receive the Abbott dividend on the Abbott shares they receive in the merger.
