Dividend data, checked by a human.
Most apps pipe a raw feed straight to your screen and hope it is right. We reconcile every dividend against company filings and investor-relations sources, then fix it when it is wrong. Each correction is dated, source-linked, and re-applied on every sync, so a refresh of the raw feed can never quietly undo it.
Three ways we correct the data.
Every correction is one of three operations, each backed by a primary source we checked against. Nothing is edited by hand in a database; corrections are versioned, auditable, and re-asserted on every data refresh.
Adjust
When a raw feed value disagrees with the company filing, we overwrite it with the verified figure from the investor-relations announcement. A common case: splitting a composite row that mixed a regular quarterly payment with a one-time special, so the regular trend and yield are not distorted.
Add
When a dividend that the filing confirms genuinely happened is missing from the raw feed, we insert it ourselves. The payment is re-asserted as its own verified row so dividend history, growth metrics, and income projections stay complete.
Omit
When the raw feed reports a phantom dividend that company filings confirm never happened, we remove it. That stops a non-existent payment from creating a false upcoming dividend or inflating projected income.
See the work, not just the claim.
One real correction of each kind, straight from our production data, showing the raw feed value, the verified figure, and a link to the source we checked it against.
The raw data feed merged a regular dividend and a one-time special into a single row. We split them so the regular dividend trend and yield are not distorted by the special.

Beyond individual dividends, we capture each company's own stated dividend policy from its filings, the target payout, the cadence, the conditions, so the score and projections reflect how management actually intends to pay.
We intend to continue providing an attractive return to our shareholders. We follow a progressive dividend policy. In the Siemens Financial Framework, we strive for a dividend per share that exceeds the amount for the preceding year, or at least matches it. As in the past, we intend to fund the dividend payout from Free cash flow. Our primary measure to assess our ability to generate cash, and ultimately to pay dividends, is the cash conversion rate for the Siemens Group, defined as the ratio of Free cash flow (continuing and discontinued operations) to net income. Over a mid-term cycle, we aim to achieve a cash conversion rate of 1 minus the annual comparable revenue growth rate.

A single wrong dividend ripples through everything: it corrupts the reported yield, throws off your forward income projection, and distorts the dividend growth rate you rely on to judge a holding. Get the dividends right and every metric built on top of them is trustworthy. That is the work most apps skip, and the reason ours can be relied on.
