What is a Dividend Date

When we talk about a dividend date, we’re referring specifically to the ex-dividend date.

This is the date on which all stockholders will earn a dividend. Technically, a person needs to be the owner of a share of stock as of the night before the ex-dividend date in order to earn the dividend.

The ex-dividend date is different than the date when the dividend is issued. Although you earn a dividend on the ex-dividend date, that dividend is typically not disbursed to your account until several weeks later.

Most brokerages will automatically credit the dividend to your account once it’s issued.

Owning Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Stock on the Dividend Date

If you own Bristol-Myers Squibb Company stock on the ex-dividend date, then you earn the associated dividend.

Theoretically, the price of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company stock should go down by the amount of the dividend (in addition to any other pressures that market forces have on the price of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company stock).

Therefore, it is typically not expected that there is any incremental profit to be gained from buying Bristol-Myers Squibb Company stock right before the ex-dividend date and then selling it immediately after. It’s not like you get the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company dividend payout for free just by doing that since there is typically an equivalent commensurate drop in the stock price.

Owning Bristol-Myers Squibb Company Options on the Dividend Date

Unlike the stock price, which will normally have an abrupt decrease by the amount of the dividend on the ex-dividend date, option prices typically do not reflect the same phenomenon.

The reason is that in the time leading up to the ex-dividend date, that projected drop in Bristol-Myers Squibb Company stock price from the dividend is already baked into Bristol-Myers Squibb Company option prices.

That means the prices of call options that overlap the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ex-dividend date typically go down in the period leading up to the ex-dividend date.

The prices of put options that overlap the Bristol-Myers Squibb Company ex-dividend date typically go up in the period leading up to the ex-dividend date.

Owners of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company call options do not receive the dividend, even if they own the options on the ex-dividend date. Owners of Bristol-Myers Squibb Company put options are not responsible to pay the dividend, even if they own the options on the ex-dividend date.
