5 Dividend Stocks Go Ex-Dividend This Week. The First Deadline Is November 5

Five dividend stocks hit their ex-dividend deadlines this week, and missing the cutoff by even one day means the payment goes to someone else. Yields stretch from 2.6% to 9.1%, but not every payout is as safe as it looks.

Five income securities on our screen go ex-dividend in the next 72 hours, and the first deadline lands on November 5, 2026. All five pay later this month. Yields run from 2.6% to 9.1%, but the window to buy is down to a day or two for each name.

How the deadline works: To get the upcoming dividend, you have to own the shares before the ex-dividend date. If you buy on or after the ex-date, the payment goes to the seller. The pay date is when the cash shows up.

Old National Bancorp Series A Preferred (ONBPP): 7% Yield, One Day Left

Old National Bancorp Series A Preferred (NASDAQ:ONBPP) depository shares pay $0.4375 per quarter, or $1.75 a year. At the $25 close, that’s a 7% yield. Directors declared the payment on August 12, 2026. The shares go ex-dividend on November 5, so the last day to buy is Wednesday, November 4. Investors can expect the cash on November 20.

Preferred dividends get paid before common dividends, so the useful check is how much room the common payout leaves. Old National reported third-quarter adjusted EPS of $0.66 against a common dividend of $0.145, along with a record efficiency ratio of 44.9%. The $0.4375 payment has been the same in every record since May 2022. The high yield comes alongside a rising price: the shares are up 5.71% year to date. Like any fixed-payout preferred, though, the price moves with interest rates.

Banner Corporation (BANR): Rising Payout, Deadline Wednesday

Banner Corporation (NASDAQ:BANR) pays $0.52 per quarter, or $2.08 a year. At the $71.52 close, the yield is 2.9%. Shares trade without the dividend starting November 5, so the last day to buy is Wednesday, November 4. Payment is due November 13. The quarterly dividend rose from $0.48 in 2025 to $0.50, then to $0.52.

Third-quarter adjusted EPS of $1.51 missed the $1.57 estimate, but the dividend uses only about 34% of it. Net income fell 10.8% to $47.7 million, mostly because of $5.2 million in Pacific Financial merger costs. A 4.14% net interest margin, core deposits at 90% of the total, and nonperforming assets at 0.35% point to a solid balance sheet. The yield is modest because the stock has rallied 16.8% this year.

Alliance Resource Partners (ARLP): 9.1% Yield Before Friday’s Ex-Date

Alliance Resource Partners (NASDAQ:ARLP) pays $0.60 per unit each quarter, or $2.40 a year. At $26.38, that’s a 9.1% yield. The ex-date is November 6, so the last day to buy is Thursday, November 5. Payment is due November 13. The units are up 22.07% year to date, so the yield reflects the payout size.

For a master limited partnership (MLP), the key test is whether distributable cash flow covers the payout. Third-quarter distribution coverage was 1.76x, up from 1.39x in the second quarter. Free cash flow rose 36.84% to $198.6 million. GAAP earnings of $1.08 per unit got a lift from a $16.5 million gain on digital assets and a $6.3 million acquisition gain, so the cash coverage figure is the better guide.

One risk worth noting: Alliance paid $0.70 per quarter as recently as the first half of 2025 before cutting the payout. Its coal sales price per ton fell 8.3% from a year ago, and total liabilities rose 56.34% after the AllDale acquisition financing. A trim like that is exactly the kind of signal we flagged in a free guide to the seven warning signs a big yield is about to be cut.

Sirius XM (SIRI): Cash Covers the Dividend Easily

Sirius XM (NASDAQ:SIRI | SIRI Price Prediction) pays $0.27 per quarter, or $1.08 a year. At $30.10, the yield is 3.6%. Shares trade without the dividend starting November 6, so the last day to buy is Thursday, November 5. Payment is due November 23.

Third-quarter EPS of $0.78 narrowly missed the $0.79 estimate, and the dividend takes about 35% of it. Cash coverage is even stronger. The company paid $91 million in dividends against $293 million of free cash flow, about 31%. Management also raised its 2026 free cash flow guidance to about $1.40 billion and plans to speed up buybacks in 2027. The trade-off is a smaller yield: the stock has gained 55.37% this year, which pulled the yield down from the levels in our earlier look at Sirius as a protected-moat income stock.

FS Bancorp (FSBW): 55 Straight Payouts, Thinner Cushion

FS Bancorp (NASDAQ:FSBW) approved its 55th straight quarterly dividend, $0.29 per share, or $1.16 a year. At $44.17, the yield is 2.6%. Shares trade without the dividend starting November 6, so the last day to buy is Thursday, November 5. Payment is due November 20.

FS Bancorp has the lightest coverage of the five. Third-quarter EPS of $0.63 fell well short of the $1.11 estimate after $2.5 million in merger costs tied to the Pacific West Bancorp deal, and revenue dropped 25%. Even so, the dividend uses about 46% of earnings, the net interest margin is 4.36%, and nonperforming assets are 0.68%. The rest of the integration costs will hit the fourth quarter, so it’s worth watching the next earnings report.

Clock Runs Out This Week

Buying a stock to collect one payment rarely works as a strategy, because share prices usually drop by about the dividend amount once the stock trades without the dividend. Each of these five needs to stand on its own coverage, balance sheet, and price. Timing still matters for anyone who already wants to own one: arrive a day late, and you miss the payment.
