The board may at any time reduce or eliminate cash dividends, regardless of past practice or investor expectations. Any such reduction or suspension could adversely impact investor sentiment and put downward pressure on Verisign’s common stock price.
The average VRSN stock price target is $304.00, implying 35.61% upside potential.
