Franklin Financial Declares 50% Stock Dividend
The Board of Directors of Franklin Financial Services
Corporation has declared a three for two stock split in the form
of a fifty percent (50%) stock dividend.
The stock dividend will be payable December 29, 1995 to
shareholders of record on December 8, 1995. This means that one
additional share of stock will be issued for every two (2.00)
shares held by shareholders.
In addition, the Board declared a $.28 per share regular
cash dividend for the fourth quarter 1995. The cash dividend
will bring the total cash dividend paid per share in 1995 to
$1.08, a 10.2% increase over the cash dividends paid per share
during 1994. The cash dividend will be payable November 30,
1995, to shareholders of record on November 10, 1995.
