WPP Ex-Dividend Date

As of Oct 3, 2026, the next WPP ex-dividend date on record is Oct 9, 2026, with a pay date of Nov 2, 2026. To receive the dividend you must own WPP shares before this date.

The ex-dividend date is the cut-off for owning a stock in time to receive its next dividend. If you buy WPP on or after the ex-dividend date, the seller — not you — receives the upcoming payment. Buy before it and you're entitled to the dividend.

You must own WPP before the ex-dividend date — i.e. buy at least one trading day earlier. Since the move to T+1 settlement, the record date and ex-dividend date now fall on the same day, so the ex-date is the deadline that matters.

As of Oct 3, 2026, WPP's most recent dividend was $0.5080 per share, paid on a semiannual basis — about $1.01 per share annually, a forward yield of roughly 4.01%.
