Key Points

  • Fully franked dividends can be extremely lucrative in the hands of certain Australian investors, and many prefer steady, reliable dividend income to capital gains
  • Companies typically pay dividends out of profits, and that means dividends are usually declared after the release of half or full year results
  • As we near the end of FY24 earnings season, we investigate the juiciest dividends Aussie investors may wish to collect

After earnings comes dividends! So, as we enter the final week of FY24 earnings season, it’s a particularly opportune time to investigate the timing of upcoming ASX dividends.

The data for this overview was taken from Market Index’s fantastic “Upcoming Dividends” page. Anytime is a good time to keep an eye on this page, but it will become a vital part of your investor toolkit twice a year in February/March and August/September – the two customary reporting seasons on the ASX.

Let’s check out the upcoming dividends from the major ASX companies, sorted by ex-dividend date (keep reading for an explanation of “ex-dividend” as well as the key rules about franking credits all ASX dividend investors must know!).

Upcoming dividends from the major ASX companies, sorted by highest dividend yield ("GU Yield" based on close price Friday 23 August, last dividend only, 12-month dividend yields may be different).

How long must you hold shares to receive franking credit benefits?

If you intend on becoming an ASX dividend connoisseur, there’s a bit of terminology, and a key rule relating to franking credits, you absolutely must know about.

Ex-dividend date "ex-date"

This is the date that new shareholders are not eligible to receive the most recently declared dividend (ex is Latin for after). This means, to be eligible to receive a dividend, you must be a shareholder prior to the ex-date. (Note, in the tables above, I included those paying dividends today for completeness, but yes, this definition means you are too late for these!)

Note, as investors who purchase share from and including the ex-date are ineligible to receive the dividend, the company's share price typically drops by the amount of the dividend, and usually to some extent, any associated franking credits.

Record date

The date on which a company determines which shareholders are entitled to receive a dividend. The record date is typically one business day after the ex-date. All shareholders that purchased share in the company at least 1 business day prior to the ex-date are recorded as eligible for the dividend.

Payment Date

This is the date the company will dispense the funds to recorded shareholders. It is typically 4-6 weeks after the ex-dividend date. It may take a further 1-3 business days for the money to hit your account.

Dividend yield

The dividend divided by the company's share price expressed as a percentage. A "grossed-up" dividend yield takes into account any franking credit associated with a dividend, therefore showing it's true yield to an Australian tax payer.

Franking credit

A credit attached to a dividend that was paid from after tax profits. The typical tax rate for Australian companies is 30%. The franking system aims to avoid double taxation of dividends from Australian companies. Investors can use the franking credit to offset income tax liabilities on a dividend.

Franking credit holding period rule

To be eligible to claim the franking credit attached to a dividend, the investor must own shares in the company for at least 45 days not counting the day of acquisition or disposal .

But wait, there’s more! Which ASX companies are still to report?

Clearly the tables above show there are some very juicy dividends about to drop, but earnings season isn’t over by a long shot! This week we’ll receive reports from a few of the ASX dividend elite including: Bendigo & Adelaide Bank (ASX: BEN), TPG Telecom (ASX: TPG), BHP Group (ASX: BHP), Woodside Energy (ASX: WDS), Coles Group (ASX: COL), Woolworths (ASX: WOW), Qantas Airways (ASX: QAN), and Wesfarmers (ASX: WES).

Once again, in terms of which companies are still to report and when, we’ve got you covered! Be sure to check out Market Index's “ASX reporting season calendar August 2024”.

And, while I’ve got your attention dividend lovers, also check out our “Dividend Yield Scan” page which is an excellent starting point for locating high yielding companies that may warrant further investigation.
