record date financial
"Record date: 14 August 2026"
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.
ex-date financial
"Ex-date Oslo Børs: 13 August 2026 Ex-date New York Stock Exchange: 14 August 2026"
The ex-date is the specific day when a stock stops trading with the right to receive an upcoming dividend or other benefit. If you buy the stock on or after this date, you won't get the upcoming payout; instead, the seller will. It’s like a cut-off point that determines who is entitled to receive the benefits of a company’s distribution to shareholders.
