This means that on or after this date, new buyers of the stock will not be eligible to receive these benefits. Thus, to qualify for such corporate actions, investors must ensure they hold the stock before the ex-date. The company declares beneficiaries entitled to dividends or bonus shares based on the list of shareholders recorded at the end of the record date.
