Where does the dividend amount come from?

From the payout history stored on the platform: the sum over the last twelve months. If there were no payouts, the field stays empty rather than zero — «did not pay» and «unknown» are different statements.

What tax is withheld from dividends?

For Russian companies the broker withholds personal income tax as a tax agent, and the calculator applies the same rate as the portfolio tax summary. The result is shown both before and after tax.

Why does the yield differ from the one on the security page?

The security page computes yield against the price on the record date; this page computes it against the current price. They answer different questions: what the payout gave holders, versus what buying today would give.

How it is calculated

The dividend per share is the sum of payouts over the last twelve months from the security's history; dividends declared but not yet paid are not included. Income is multiplied by the number of shares, and the broker withholds the tax.

The yield is taken on the current price: it answers what a purchase today would pay if the payout stays the same. The company approves the size of the next payout anew.

What this figure does not mean

The calculation assumes the dividend per share stays the same. A dividend is not an obligation: shareholders approve it anew each time, and it can be cut or skipped entirely. The security's own price change and broker fees are not included.
