Key Terms
liquidation preferencefinancial
A liquidation preference is a rule that determines who gets paid first and how much they receive when a company is sold, goes bankrupt, or distributes its assets. It gives certain investors a priority claim—often returning their original investment plus any agreed multiple—before other owners receive money, which shapes how much common shareholders and founders ultimately get; think of it as a front-of-the-line pass that affects payout order and investor returns.
preferred sharesfinancial
Preferred shares are a type of investment that gives investors priority over common shareholders when it comes to receiving dividends and getting their money back if a company is sold or liquidated. Think of them as a safer, more predictable way to earn income from a company's profits, similar to a fixed-return investment, but without voting rights. This makes preferred shares appealing to those seeking stable income with a higher claim on assets than regular stockholders.
record datefinancial
The record date is the specific day when a company determines which shareholders are eligible to receive a dividend or participate in an upcoming vote. It’s like a cutoff date; if you own the stock on that day, you get the benefits or voting rights. This date matters because it decides who qualifies for certain company benefits.
payable datefinancial
The payable date is the calendar day when a company actually transfers a scheduled cash payment—such as a dividend or interest—to eligible holders. Think of it as the company’s “payday” for investors: it matters because this is when you receive the money and when taxable income is realized, so investors track it to time cash flow, portfolio income, and tax reporting.
distribution ratefinancial
Distribution rate is the percentage that shows how much income an investment pays out to holders over a year, usually expressed relative to the fund’s share price or net asset value. It tells investors the income they can expect—similar to the interest rate on a savings account—and helps gauge whether a security is delivering steady cash flow or relying on capital to pay distributions, which can signal higher risk.
new york stock exchangefinancial
The New York Stock Exchange is a marketplace where people buy and sell shares of publicly traded companies. It functions like a busy trading hub, helping investors transfer ownership of company parts and providing a way to gauge how well businesses are doing. Its role is vital because it offers liquidity and transparency, making it easier for investors to buy and sell investments confidently.
