On May 19, 2021, Cerner (NASDAQ:CERN) announced shareholders can expect to receive a dividend payable on July 13, 2021. The stock will then go ex-dividend 1 business day(s) before the record date. The ex-dividend date for Cerner is set for June 25, 2021. The company's current dividend payout sits at $0.22, equating to a dividend yield of 1.13% at current price levels.
The Significance Of An Ex-Dividend Date
Ex-dividend dates signal when company shares cease to trade with their current dividend payouts. There is a small intermission period before companies announce new dividends. Usually, a company's ex-dividend date falls one business day before its record date. Investors should keep this in mind when purchasing stocks because buying them on or after ex-dividend dates does not qualify them to receive the declared payment. Newly declared dividends go to shareholders who have owned that stock before the ex-dividend date. Most ex-dividend dates operate on a quarterly basis.
Understanding Cerner's Dividend Performance
Over the past year, Cerner has seen its dividend payouts and yields climb upward overall. Last year (June 4, 2020), the company's payout sat at $0.18, which has since increased by $0.04. Cerner's dividend yield last year was 1.07%, which has since grown by 0.06%.
Companies use dividend yields in different strategic ways. Some companies may opt to not give yields altogether to reinvest in themselves. Other companies may opt to increase or decrease their yield amounts to control how their shares circulate throughout the stock market.
