What these columns measure
- Dividend Yield
- The latest declared dividend annualized by the company's payment frequency, divided by the current price. It states what that declaration is worth over a year at today's price rather than what the company has actually paid over the past one. The price is the denominator, so the figure moves when the price moves and nothing about the payment has to change for it to rise: a company whose shares have halved shows twice the yield on the same dividend, which is why the largest figures on this board are worth reading beside the price column. A "special" marker means a special dividend was also recorded for the company in the past twelve months, not that the ranked yield comes from it; a "Last dividend" badge means the last recorded ex date is older than the company's payment schedule allows, which is six months for most companies and longer for those that pay once or twice a year, so the payment may since have been reduced or discontinued while the yield still reflects it.
- Frequency
- How often the company has been paying. The yield is annualized on this cadence, so an irregular payer's yield is the least reliable figure on the board.
- Dividend
- The per-share amount of that most recently declared payment in US dollars, which is the amount the yield is worked out from, since the price beside it is in US dollars too. When a company declares its dividend in another currency, as many Canadian companies do, we convert it at the newest official exchange rate we hold and show the amount it declared beneath, with its currency code, so a figure that differs from the company’s own announcement is the same payment stated in dollars. When the company’s next payment is a different amount, because it has raised or cut the dividend from a later date, that amount is shown beneath as the next one.
- Ex Date
- The day the company’s next payment goes ex, which is the first day a purchase no longer carries entitlement to it, so a buyer has to own the shares before then. A company that declares several months ahead has more than one payment on record, and the row names the soonest that has not gone ex yet, while the yield still comes from the latest one declared. When no payment is still ahead, Ex Date and Pay Date describe the latest declaration, whose dates are already past, and a past date there is not stale.
- Pay Date
- The day that same payment is made. Both dates are exchange calendar days and read identically wherever you are.
- 52W Price Change
- The share price change from the split-adjusted close a year ago to the latest close. It is context for the yield and says nothing about why the price moved. A dash means one of the two closes is missing, the ticker belonged to another company a year ago, or a spin-off inside the year breaks the price series.
- Why a company may be missing
- A forward yield is stated only when a twelve-month measure comes within a factor of 2 of it either way: the sum of what the company actually paid over the last twelve months, or a second data source's yield. A declaration the feed recorded wrongly, or a payout too variable to annualize, fails both, and the row is left off rather than shown with a figure nothing else supports. A company with neither twelve-month figure is listed on its declared figure alone. A company is also left off when no price has been recorded for it in the last 10 days, since a yield worked out over a price that old would not describe the stock as it trades now, and it comes back at the next daily rebuild once a new price arrives. A company that has announced its own liquidation is left off too, since its regular dividend will not continue. So is a company whose dividend is declared in a currency we hold no recent official exchange rate for, because its yield cannot be worked out in dollars until a rate arrives.
- Why funds lead the list
- The highest yields belong mostly to closed-end funds, business development companies and mortgage REITs, whose distributions can include a return of the investor's own capital rather than earnings. A high yield here says what the payout is worth at today's price, not that the business behind it is healthy.
- Why a cell shows a dash
- A dash is a value the source did not supply, never a zero. Under Frequency it means no recognizable payment pattern for the symbol, which makes the annualization behind its yield an assumption rather than an observed cadence; under Country or Sector it means the value is not recorded for the company.

$100M market cap
Yields reflect each company's most recent declared dividend, annualized by its payment frequency and divided by the latest price, with a dividend declared in another currency first converted to US dollars at the newest official exchange rate. Companies whose dividend is only predicted, with no recent or scheduled payment, are excluded. Rows marked "Last dividend" have a last recorded ex date older than the company's payment schedule allows, which is six months for most companies, about nine and a half for one that pays twice a year and about thirteen for one that pays once a year; the payment may have been reduced or discontinued.
Looking for a specific symbol?
Yields annualize the latest declared dividend by the payment frequency shown, so an irregular payer’s figure assumes a cadence it may not keep. This ranking is informational and is not investment advice.
What this ranking covers
- Universe
- Companies on NYSE, Nasdaq and NYSE American that declared a dividend in the past twelve months.
- Floors
- Market cap of at least $100 million.
- Exclusions
- Companies whose dividend is only predicted, with no recent or scheduled payment, and rows whose yield a second source contradicts.
- Measured on
- Forward yield: the latest declared dividend annualized by its payment frequency, divided by the latest price.
- Refreshed
- Rebuilt from the latest close, so a yield moves when the price moves even though the declaration behind it has not changed.
