MADISON, WI – October 30, 2015 – First Business Financial Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: FBIZ) announced its board of directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.11 per share. The 2015 annualized dividend amount is $0.44 per share which is equivalent to a dividend yield of 1.71% based on yesterday’s market close price of $25.36.
