How TTM dividends paid is measured
Trailing twelve months (TTM) dividends paid is the cash a company distributed to common shareholders over the most recent four fiscal quarters. The figure comes from the financing section of the cash flow statement and is shown as a positive amount paid out. Unlike buybacks, dividends are a recurring commitment — boards rarely cut them without signalling distress, so the leaderboard skews toward mature, free-cash-flow-rich businesses.
Compare against buyback spend for the other half of capital return, and free cash flow to gauge whether dividends are being funded from operating cash or borrowed money. Ranked in USD after period-average FX translation (IAS 21). Rankings USD translation methodology · IFRS IAS 21 (official)
