Ex dividendThis literally means "without dividend." The buyer of shares when they are quoted ex-dividend is not entitled to receive a declared dividend. It is the interval between the record date and the payment date during which the stock trades without its dividend-the buyer of a stock selling ex-dividend does not receive the recently declared dividend.

Dividend discount modelDividend discount modelA way of valuing a share based on the net present value of the dividends that you expect to receive in the future.The simplest version of the model assumes that the company's dividend rate remains constant. The 'fair' price of the share is the dividend (in pennies per share) divided by the required rate of return. So if you want 10% a year from your shares, the value of a company paying a 7p dividend is 70p. If you think a return of 8% is satisfactory, the value of the same share is 87.5p.A more complex model assumes that the dividends of the company grow at a consistent rate. The fair price to pay is the next dividend divided by the required rate of return minus the rate at which dividends are expected to grow. So if the 7p dividend is expected to grow at 5% per year, an investor requiring an 12% return would value the shares at (7p x 1.05) divided by (0.12 - 0.05)= (7.35p) divided by (0.07)= 105p Dividend in arrearsDividend in arrearsAccumulated dividends on cumulative preferred stock that are deemed payable to the current holder.
