Help CenterWoxa provides information on dividend distribution in 2 categories:
1. Types of Dividend Payments.
- Cash Dividends.
- This is the most commonly used format, where dividends come from the company's profits or accumulated profits.
- The advantage is that paying dividends can build confidence among shareholders, showing that the company is financially sound and has a strong performance. Shareholders trust that the company will continue to grow alongside its business expansion."
- Equity Stock Dividend.
- It involves increasing capital by issuing common shares and then distributing dividends in the form of these shares, based on a predetermined ratio.
- The advantage : Many investors prefer receiving dividends in the form of stock because the shares received may appreciate in value, potentially yielding a better return. This added value from the stock dividend can be more significant than receiving cash dividends. It's suitable for investors who have confidence in the long-term growth of the company or for those who don't have an immediate need for cash.
2. Timing of Dividend Payments.
- Monthly = (1M)
- Quarterly = (3M)
- Semi-Annually (6M)
- Annual = (12M)
- Trailing Twelve Months = (TTM)
- Other = (O)
- Interim dividend payment = (I)
- Final dividend = (F)
- Bonus = (B)
