The ex-date marks the cutoff point when buying a stock no longer includes entitlement to upcoming dividends, bonuses, or stock splits. To qualify, investors must own the stock prior to the ex-date. Those purchasing on or after this date are ineligible.
Companies then determine beneficiaries based on the record date, identifying eligible investors from the list of shareholders at that time, typically a few days after the ex-date. Essentially, the ex-date is the last day to buy a stock and still receive upcoming corporate benefits.
