Dividend Calendar

What is Dividend Calendar? Dividends are payments to investors that are paid out either monthly, quarterly, or sometimes annually. Usually, dividends are paid out in cash. When a company declares a dividend, it sets a record date when you must be on the company's books as a shareholder to receive the dividend. Companies also use this date to determine who is sent proxy statements, financial reports, and other information.

In other words a daily schedule of the stocks that will be going ex-dividend. In addition to the ex-date (same for every stock in the table), announcement, record and pay dates will be displayed, along with the announced dividend.

Important Dividend dates are as follow:

• Declaration date
