Dividend Calculator — UK Shares and ETFs
Pick any London-listed share or ETF, enter how much of it you hold, and see what its dividends pay — from the amounts the company announced itself. Ad-free, no sign-up.
Every figure below comes from the company’s own filings on the FCA’s National Storage Mechanism, not from an estimate or a bought-in feed. Choose a company, enter your holding, and the calculator lists its recent payments and anything declared but not yet paid, with what each is worth to you.

What the calculator does
It lists the payments a company has made over roughly the last year, plus anything it has declared and not yet paid, and multiplies each by your holding. Every row has its own share count, so you can match what you actually held at the time. There is deliberately no grand total: a total across a span you did not choose would assume you held the same number of shares for all of it.
For a company’s longer record — its latest twelve payments and how its dividend has changed over the years — open its own calculator from the result, or browse every company and fund in the registry.
How do you calculate dividend income from shares?
Multiply the dividend per share by the number of shares you hold. A company that declares 26.2p a share pays £262 on 1,000 shares. Most UK companies pay twice a year — an interim and a final — so this calculator lists each payment the company announced and what it pays on your holding.
What dividend figures does this use?
The amounts the company itself announced, taken from its filings on the FCA's National Storage Mechanism. Nothing is estimated or bought in from a data vendor: each payment links back to the announcement it came from, so you can check any figure at source.
Does it predict future dividends?
No. It lists payments the company has already announced — paid and still to come — and projects nothing forward. A company can raise, cut or suspend its dividend at any time, and several large UK payers did exactly that in 2020.
When do I have to own the shares to get the dividend?
You must hold them on the record date, which means buying before the ex-dividend date — usually one business day before the record date. Buy on or after the ex-dividend date and the seller keeps that payment. Every company page on this site shows the ex-dividend date alongside the payment date.
Do I pay tax on these dividends?
Not inside a stocks and shares ISA or a pension. In a general account, dividends above the £500 allowance are taxed at the dividend rate for your income-tax band. The dividend tax calculator works out the amount for a given total.

This calculator reports dividends companies have already announced and does not predict future ones. It is general information, not financial advice — always confirm against the company’s own announcement before acting.
