NEW YORK, Aug. 9. AQN declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.065 per share in U.S. dollars, the company said, with payment set for Oct. 15, 2026. Both the ex-dividend date and the record date fall on Sept. 29.
Key dates for shareholders
The Sept. 29 ex-dividend and record dates coincide. That alignment narrows the purchase window for investors who want to qualify for the Oct. 15 payment. Those who buy shares on or after Sept. 29 will not receive the distribution; shareholders already on the record before that date will collect $0.065 per share, according to the release.
Payment arrives Oct. 15, roughly 16 days after the record date. The company disclosed no conditions, adjustments, or withholding provisions affecting the distribution, the release shows.
Quarterly schedule
AQN's board approved the dividend under a quarterly schedule, the company said. The cadence calls for four separate declarations each year, with each quarter carrying its own ex-dividend, record, and payment dates. The board sets the per-share amount at each quarterly declaration rather than committing to a fixed annual figure in advance.
The $0.065 amount applies to this quarter only. The company offered no guidance on future dividend rates or changes to the quarterly payout schedule. No special distribution designation appeared in the release.
What aligned dates mean for buyers
When the ex-dividend and record dates fall on the same calendar day, buyers face a narrower eligibility window than they would if the two dates were separated by even a single day. Standard equity settlement requires a trade to settle by the record date for the buyer to appear on the shareholder record. With both the ex-date and the record date on Sept. 29, an investor who purchases shares on that day will not settle in time to qualify.
Sept. 28 is effectively the last day to buy and still receive the $0.065-per-share payment on Oct. 15. No exceptions to that timeline were disclosed in the company's release.
