Final Dividend

    0.02 sec.
final dividend
1. The final dividend payment from a firm that is liquidating.
2. The last dividend of a firm's fiscal year. The final dividend is declared when management is able to estimate rather accurately the firm's earnings and its dividend-paying ability. Also called year-end dividend. Compare interim dividend.

Final Dividend
The last dividend declared in a given fiscal year. The final dividend is determined after all financial reports have been made and the company has the clearest pictures of its performance that year. As a result, the final dividend is often the largest, as the company does not have to worry about being conservative if expected revenues do not match actual revenues. The term is most common in the United Kingdom.
