Questions
- Where does the dividend amount come from?
- From the payout history stored on the platform: the sum over the last twelve months. If there were no payouts, the field stays empty rather than zero — «did not pay» and «unknown» are different statements.
- What tax is withheld from dividends?
- For Russian companies the broker withholds personal income tax as a tax agent, and the calculator applies the same rate as the portfolio tax summary. The result is shown both before and after tax.
- Why does the yield differ from the one on the security page?
- The security page computes yield against the price on the record date; this page computes it against the current price. They answer different questions: what the payout gave holders, versus what buying today would give.
What this figure does not mean
The calculation assumes the dividend per share stays the same. A dividend is not an obligation: shareholders approve it anew each time, and it can be cut or skipped entirely. The security's own price change and broker fees are not included.
