First Farmers and Merchants Corporation (OTC Pink: FFMH), the holding company for First Farmers and Merchants Bank, today announced that its Board of Directors increased its regular quarterly cash dividend by 9.5%, to $0.23 per share from $0.21 per share. The new higher dividend rate will be paid on October 14, 2022, to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2022.

“We believe the increase in our cash dividend demonstrates our commitment to building long-term shareholder value,” stated Brian K. Williams, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of First Farmers. “The increased cash dividend also highlights the strong financial performance of First Farmers and our positive outlook for our future.

“We expect to fund the higher cash dividend from operations. We remain focused on leveraging our strong financial position to invest in First Farmers’ technology, infrastructure and people to support our continued growth,” concluded Williams.
