Two different dividend entries appear in the calendar for Wam Active (ASX:WAA). The final amount is AUD 0.032 per share, with an ex-dividend date of 17-Nov-2026 and payment scheduled for 30-Nov-26. The indicated 3.56% yield and 100% franking provide additional context for income-focused readers.

The Dividend Clock and Eligibility

The ex-dividend date is 17-Nov-2026. In the usual Australian market timetable, an investor generally needs to own the relevant security before its ex-date to qualify for that distribution, subject to the issuer’s terms and market rules. Buying on or after the ex-date ordinarily does not secure the upcoming payment. The scheduled payment date is 30-Nov-26, which is distinct from the trading date on which entitlement is determined. Investors should check the issuer’s official dividend notice for record dates, special conditions and any changes to the timetable.

What the Distribution Amount Actually Means

The stated final amount is AUD 0.032 per share. This is a per-security figure rather than a guarantee of total cash received: the cash payment depends on the number of eligible securities held. For illustration only, a holding of 1,000 eligible units would correspond to AUD 32.00 before any applicable tax or adjustments. That arithmetic does not establish that future distributions will be the same size. Dividend amounts may change between periods, and a single announced payment should not be extrapolated into a full-year income forecast.

Franking and the Yield Figure

The dividend carries 100% franking. Franking credits, where applicable, reflect Australian company tax already paid and their value depends on the investor’s circumstances and eligibility. A 100% franking figure should not be confused with a 100% cash return. The Dividend Yield of 3.56% accompanies a quoted price of AUD 0.90. It is important not to describe this figure as a trailing annual yield or a forward annual forecast without establishing how it was calculated. Market prices can also change before the ex-date, altering percentage comparisons.

Two Entries Need Separate Treatment

Two Wam Active entries appear on the 2026 calendar: AUD 0.032 with an ex-date of 17-Nov and a payment date of 30-Nov, and AUD 0.020 with an ex-date of 04-Dec and a payment date of 17-Dec. They should not automatically be combined or interpreted as a recurring distribution series without official confirmation. The dates, amounts and potential entitlement conditions require separate checking. This article covers the 17-Nov-2026 entry specifically, rather than treating both as a single declared dividend.

What to Watch Next

The immediate calendar event is the 17-Nov-2026 ex-dividend date, followed by the scheduled 30-Nov-26 payment. Any amendments, eligibility rules, payment currency or additional corporate announcements should be checked against the issuer’s official disclosures. The figures here describe the stated distribution timetable rather than a forecast of Business performance or future income.
