Dividends are payments made by a corporation to its shareholders. They are typically paid in the form of cash or additional shares of stock and are distributed from the company's profits or reserves. Dividends can be paid out on a regular basis, such as quarterly or annually, or they can be paid out on an irregular basis at the discretion of the company's board of directors.
