dividend check

Investor's periodic payout

A dividend check is a payment issued to shareholders representing their portion of a company's distributed profits.

Companies that pay dividends typically send these checks quarterly, though some pay annually or monthly.

The amount depends on how many shares you own and the dividend rate declared by the board: I reinvest my dividend checks rather than cashing them.
