Question 1

When is the next WTRG ex-dividend date?

Accepted Answer

The next WTRG ex-dividend date on record is May 12, 2026. To receive the dividend you must own WTRG shares before this date.

Question 2

What is an ex-dividend date?

Accepted Answer

The ex-dividend date is the cut-off for owning a stock in time to receive its next dividend. If you buy WTRG on or after the ex-dividend date, the seller — not you — receives the upcoming payment. Buy before it and you're entitled to the dividend.

Question 3

Do I have to own WTRG on the ex-dividend date to get the dividend?

Accepted Answer

You must own WTRG before the ex-dividend date — i.e. buy at least one trading day earlier. Since the move to T+1 settlement, the record date and ex-dividend date now fall on the same day, so the ex-date is the deadline that matters.

Question 4

How much is the WTRG dividend?

Accepted Answer

WTRG's most recent dividend was $0.3430 per share, paid on a quarterly basis — about $1.37 per share annually, a forward yield of roughly 3.73%.
