How much is the company paying out in dividends in Total, on a per share basis as reported to the SEC, and on a calculated basis from their Total Dividends paid divided by their number of shares outstanding?
Reported versus Calculated growth rate percentages that have large variance could point to either a flaw in our data collection techniques, or in fradulent reporting to the SEC.
Such discrepencies could also point to a company having split payments between preferred and common shares, and our data collection techniques not yet being advanced enough to display the difference.
Values not found in SEC records have had null values replaced with zero (0, $0, depending). So zero is either a reported zero dividends paid, or missing data.
