How it works
Yearly income = shares owned times annual dividend per share. Per-payout income = yearly income divided by the number of payouts per year (12 monthly, 4 quarterly, 1 yearly). Dividends can be cut or suspended, so past dividends do not guarantee future income.
Frequently asked questions
Do dividends stay the same?
No. Companies can raise, cut, or suspend dividends. Treat this as income at the current stated rate, not a promise.
Is this total return?
No. This is dividend income only. Share price gains or losses are separate.
