A quarterly cash dividend of $0.81 per share is in focus for VRSN, with the ex-dividend date and record date both set to August 19, 2026. Payment follows on August 27.
The calendar
August 19 is the date that determines eligibility for this distribution. The ex-dividend date and the record date fall on the same day, so a buyer settling on or after August 19 will not receive the current payout. Shareholders confirmed on the books at that record date are in line for the $0.81 per share. Eight days of settlement runway separate the August 19 cutoff from the August 27 payment.
Declared cadence
VRSN placed this distribution on a quarterly schedule. The declared amount for the current period is $0.81 per share in cash. The corporate action covers this period only; the filing contains no announced change to the forward rate or timing structure.
What to watch
August 27, 2026 is the next hard date: the day the $0.81 per share reaches shareholders of record as of August 19. Any revision to the quarterly rate or the timing of a subsequent payment would require a separate corporate action filing.
