- Shell ordinary shares go ex-dividend on Thursday, November 12, with the record date set for Friday, November 13.
- The company will announce pound sterling and euro equivalents on December 7 and plans payment for December 21.
- The dividend timetable gives investors a near-term corporate date while Shell continues its broader capital-return programme.
Shell's ordinary shares will trade ex-dividend on Thursday, November 12, 2026, giving investors a defined corporate date to watch in the coming week. The company's board announced a third-quarter interim dividend of US$0.3906 per ordinary share on October 29. The timetable is set out in Shell's dividend announcement.
The record date for ordinary shares is Friday, November 13. Shell shareholders can elect to receive the dividend in US dollars, euros or pounds sterling, subject to the applicable election arrangements. The company says the pound sterling and euro equivalent payments will be announced on December 7.
Dividend timing and investor focus
The payment date is December 21. For investors assessing the near-term calendar, the ex-dividend date is the key event in the coming week, while the later currency-equivalent announcement will determine the sterling and euro amounts for eligible shareholders. The timetable applies to Shell ordinary shares identified by ISIN GB00BP6MXD84; Shell ADSs follow a separate timetable and represent two ordinary shares.
Shell is also executing a wider capital-return strategy after reporting third-quarter 2026 results. The company has announced a further US$5 billion share buyback programme, while its investor materials identify quarterly results, dividends and investor presentations as key calendar items. The dividend date therefore sits alongside an active shareholder-return programme rather than representing a standalone operating update.
Shell stock traded at 44.45 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 18:25 CET on Sunday, November 8, 2026. Investors should distinguish the ex-dividend timetable from any share-price movement, since the dividend date concerns entitlement to the distribution rather than a new earnings announcement.
