Q: Dividends

One of the key features I’m missing is the inclusion of ex-dividend dates and a dividend forecast. Are you planning to add these?

A: You can find the ex-dividend date in the "Upcoming events" panel in the "Events" section of each stock or in the portfolio and watchlists. Apologies if perhaps it wasn't as evident as it should have been.

As for the dividends forecast, we will be releasing an update within 2 weeks to include them in the "Financial History" section of the stock page, alongside all other forecasts.

You're right—thanks for pointing that out. It would be really helpful to see historical dividends presented in a table, with graphs (e.g. like the revenues), and covering a longer time period.

For that, you have two options. Out of the box, we show the dividend history in the "Financial history" table in the Stock Summary page. If you hover on that row, on the right hand side you will see appear a bar chart.

For a more customised and advanced visualisation, create a custom dashboard, add a "Time series" widget, and select "Dividend per share" as a metric.

The financial history gives a good overview, thank you for that. However, it becomes challenging when a stock pays dividends on different schedules—like semi-annually, quarterly, or even monthly. Market leaders like bloomberg even show details like the record date, payment date, or the reason for the payment (for example, whether it’s a special dividend or a capital repayment ect.).

By the way, I double-checked the dividend amounts for several blue-chip stocks on Bloomberg in their local currencies. Most of the dividend figures you provided appear to be incorrect—not drastically wrong, but still mostly inaccurate.

We source all our dividend data directly from LSEG, which is one of the most reputable and widely trusted providers of institutional-grade financial data.

Discrepancies between our figures and Bloomberg’s can usually be explained by small differences in methodology, especially on per-share metrics.

I'm a bit confused. Dividend per share doesn't really depend on any index methodology, it's a simple addition and absolute value. Both Bloomberg and Microsoft's official website show dividends for 2024 as 4 × 0.75 = $3.00. But your data shows $2.93. Why is there a difference? Just to mention one example.

Our data provider gives us the DPS in 3 flavours: by end date, ex date, and payable date. We are currently displaying the value by payable date, but we can see how it can be confusing to compare it with other reporting where other methodologies have been used. We'll do some thinking on how to address your feedback. Thank you for pointing this out!
