Change any row to match what you held at the time — the number at the top fills them all. Shares bought on or after the ex-dividend date do not receive that payment.

Over the longer run: from FY2015 to FY2025 British American Tobacco’s dividend went 154p → 245.04p, so the income on an unchanged holding changed +59.1% — an average of +4.8% a year over 10 years. Past changes are not a guide to future ones. See every year.

What this assumes. That the number in each row is what you held when that dividend was paid, and that you did not reinvest.

Every per-share figure comes from British American Tobacco’s own announcements, filed under UK listing rules. This is general information, not investment advice.

Working out the tax? The dividend tax calculator takes a total and applies this year’s rates and allowance. To see the effect of buying more shares with each payment, try the reinvestment calculator, and to build a whole portfolio’s payment calendar use the dividend income calculator.

This calculator multiplies dividends British American Tobacco has actually announced by a share count you choose. It does not forecast: a company can raise, cut or suspend its dividend at any time, so what it has paid is not a prediction of what it will pay. Always confirm against the company’s own announcement before acting.
