Motor Oil shareholders have until the close of trading today to secure their entitlement to the company's supplementary dividend of €1.40 per share.
The ex-dividend date is scheduled for Friday, meaning any purchases made on or after that date will not qualify for the payout.
The special distribution represents a significant return for investors in the Greek energy sector, which has benefited from robust refining margins and strong operational performance over the past year.
Motor Oil, a subsidiary of Hellenic Petroleum, has consistently rewarded shareholders with above-average payouts, reflecting the company's strong cash generation capabilities.
Market participants are closely monitoring the final trading days ahead of the ex-dividend date, as dividend-seeking investors often increase buying pressure in the days leading up to the cutoff.
This activity can temporarily boost trading volumes and support the share price, although the stock typically adjusts downward by the amount of the dividend on the ex-date.
