Dividend estimator

"No cash is distributed." That line from Binance Academy's guide to bStocks is the first thing to know if the shares you are pricing are tokens. The net dividend, after US withholding tax, is reinvested and your bStock balance grows through the Multiplier. For shares held at a broker, the dividend usually arrives as cash. Either way, the starting number is the same: how many shares, times what the company pays per share in a year. That is what this estimator works out, before tax.

Where to find the dividend per share

Use the company's declared dividend, from its investor relations page or its dividend announcement. A company that pays quarterly announces one amount at a time, so add up the four most recent quarterly amounts to get a yearly figure, or multiply the latest one by four if you expect it to stay the same. The default of 1.20 in the box is only a placeholder. We would not use a "forward yield" from a quote site here: it is somebody's estimate, and this tool would turn it into a confident-looking number.

A worked example (made-up numbers)

Say you hold 20 bStock tokens and the company pays a made-up 1.00 USD per share per year. The estimator shows 20.00 USD a year, or 5.00 USD a quarter. Binance's bStocks launch announcement lists US withholding tax as currently 30%, taken before reinvestment, so about 6.00 USD of that would be withheld and about 14.00 USD reinvested as extra token balance. Nothing lands in your account as cash. With shares at a broker, the gross figure is the same, and how much tax comes off depends on where you live and your broker's paperwork.

What this estimate leaves out

• Tax. The result is before any withholding or income tax.
• Timing. You have to hold before the ex-dividend date. The bStocks FAQ says that if you buy on or after the ex-date, you get no dividend for that cycle. The Academy adds that the net dividend is typically credited ahead of the traditional pay date.
• Pauses around the ex-date. For a bStock dividend, the FAQ's table shows deposits, withdrawals and conversions paused and spot trading available, while its text says trading may also be restricted.
• Changes to the dividend. Companies raise, cut and skip dividends. The result assumes the number you typed holds for a year.

A plain multiplication that runs in your browser. It fetches no dividend data and sends nothing you type to us. The company's own announcement decides what is paid and when.
