Extra Space Storage Inc. Announces Dividend on Common Stock
Furthermore, it is anticipated that, following the closing of the merger with LSI, EXR will pay an additional dividend for the third quarter, keeping with EXR's customary quarterly dividend timing. The pre-closing dividend will be attributed to the total amount paid for the third quarter, so that between this pre-closing dividend and the additional quarterly dividend to be paid, an EXR stockholder will receive a total dividend consistent with the amount that the EXR board of directors would have otherwise declared for the whole third quarter absent the closing.
