cash dividend. A dividend paid in cash (that is, by check) to holders of a firm's stock. Although the amount is usually based on profitability, it may temporarily exceed net income. Certain legal and contractual restrictions may limit a firm's ability to pay cash dividends.
Share. A dividend is defined as a payment made by a corporation to its shareholders. Usually these payouts are made in cash (called âcash dividendsâ), but sometimes companies will also distribute stock dividends, whereby additional stock shares are distributed to shareholders.Stock dividends are also known as stock splits.ield is presented on a percentage basis of the stockâs current price. For example, if stock XYZ is trading at $100 per share, and it pays a total of $5 in dividends this year, then its dividend yield is 5% (since $5 is 5% of $100). Since a stockâs price will change on a daily basis, so will its dividend yield.
