Key Terms

4 terms

ex-dividend date financial

"Ex-Dividend Date: | Dec. 23, 2025"

The ex-dividend date is the date when a stock starts trading without the value of its next dividend payment included. If you buy the stock on or after this date, you won't receive that upcoming dividend; only those who owned the stock before this date are entitled to it. It matters to investors because it determines who is eligible to receive the dividend and can influence the stock’s price around that time.

View in glossary

record date financial

"Record Date: | Dec. 23, 2025"

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 date financial

"Payable Date: | Jan. 2, 2026"

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.

alternative minimum tax (AMT) financial

"income exempt from the federal alternative minimum tax (AMT)."

A separate tax calculation that ensures individuals and some corporations pay at least a minimum amount of tax by limiting certain deductions and credits; it acts like a safety net that can raise a taxpayer’s bill if regular tax breaks would otherwise reduce it too far. Investors care because AMT can change after‑tax returns, affect cash flow and planning for investors receiving large deductions, stock compensation, or high income, similar to a hidden floor under expected tax savings.
