Cash Dividend

Cash dividend is a dividend paid in cash rather than additional shares or other property.

Why this matters to income investors

Cash reaches the investor directly and can fund spending or reinvestment.

How to use cash dividend in your research

Check the company’s latest declaration for the per-share amount and payment dates. Separate the recurring rate from one-time payments, then compare the revised annual amount with current earnings support.
