Alternative ways to invest in Village Bank and Trust Financial

Via a fund

Buying shares in just one company is generally considered a riskier bet than investing in a range of investments - AKA a "diversified portfolio". Experts generally recommend holding a mix of investments in specific assets and funds. Funds are ready-made portfolios of multiple companies' shares (potentially including Village Bank and Trust Financial), and the idea is that drops in the value of one constituent company's share price might be offset by rises in others.

Village Bank and Trust Financial is a major part of the NASDAQ, so it's included in many global funds and investment trusts, as well as tracker-style exchange traded funds (ETFs).

Frequently asked questions

Dividend yield: 0.9% of stock value
Forward annual dividend yield: 0.9% of stock value
Dividend payout ratio: 19.45% of net profits

Village Bank and Trust Financial has recently paid out dividends equivalent to 0.90% of its share value annually.

Village Bank and Trust Financial has paid out, on average, around 19.45% of recent net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 0.9% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), shareholders could enjoy a 0.9% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Village Bank and Trust Financial's case, that would currently equate to about 0.72 per share.

While Village Bank and Trust Financial's payout ratio might seem low, this can signify that the company is investing more in its future growth.

Village Bank and Trust Financial's most recent dividend payout was on 13 March 2025. To be eligible for the latest dividend you would need to have been a shareholder at 6 March 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").
Village Bank and Trust Financial's shares were split on a 1:16 basis on 7 August 2014. So if you had owned 16 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 1 share. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Village Bank and Trust Financial shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 1500% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Village Bank and Trust Financial shares which in turn could have impacted Village Bank and Trust Financial's share price.
