Sba Communications Corp's dividend schedule
Sba Communications Corp has paid quarterly across the 6 years of records we hold, with the most recent ex-date on August 20, 2026. Its ex-dates usually land in the middle of the month.
Across the 29 announcements we have on file, SBAC declares a dividend a median of 19 days before the shares go ex. That is roughly how much notice SBAC gives you before each ex-date, once its board declares. The cash then arrives about 27 days after the ex-date.
Increases have a season: of the 7 raises in our record, most take effect with the March payment, so that is the ex-date to watch for a change in the amount. The most recent was 12.6%, effective with the March 2026 ex-date.
