Using TipRanks’ Dividend Calendar for the German market, we have shortlisted two companies, Vonovia SE (DE:VNA) and PUMA SE (DE:PUM), that will go ex-dividend in May 2023.

These stocks offer stable dividends and have also earned Buy ratings from analysts. To receive the next payout, investors must possess the stock by the ex-dividend date.

Let’s take a look at the details.

For the fiscal year 2022, the company will pay a dividend of €0.85 per share, which is lower than the previous year’s payment of €1.66 per share. Even though the company witnessed strong sales numbers, the bottom line was a bit shaky, resulting in a dividend cut. However, the operational performance remains strong, and the management is actively focused on reducing its substantial debt burden.
