Property Dividends




A property dividend is a dividend paid in a form other than cash or the company's own stock.


Additional Comments:

A property dividend is generally taxable at its fair market value. For example, when a corporation spins off a subsidiary, shareholders might receive assets or shares of that subsidiary. Distributing the stocks or assets of the subsidiary (rather than cash) allows shareholders to benefit directly from the market value of the dividends received.
