Ex-Dividend Date Definition: A corporation that pays shareholders a dividend on its stock needs a way to determine who will receive the dividend payment. That’s where the ex-dividend date (i.e. without dividend date) comes in. A shareholder must own a stock prior to the ex-dividend date until the date of record (typically two business days later) to be entitled to receive the most recently declared dividend payment. The dividend will ultimately be paid on the appropriately named dividend payment date (typically about three weeks after the ex-dividend date). For example, say Chevron (CVX) has a quarterly dividend payment of $1.19 per share with an ex-dividend date of August 15, a date of record of August 20 and a dividend payment date of September 9. Any shareholder that owns the stock from August 14 (one day before the ex-dividend date) through August 20 will ultimately receive the $1.19 per share dividend on September 9.
