If the ex date of a stock split is on the same day as the ex date of a dividend, would we get paid dividend?

Question

If the ex date of a stock split is on the same day as the ex date of a dividend, would we get paid dividend on the additional shares from the stock split?

Answer 1

A stock split is just another form of dividend, it is a stock dividend. Typically, the dividend is paid on the pre-split shares, then the split is recorded. If the record keeping is the other way, an investor receives one-half the dividend on twice as many shares. Either way, the amount of cash dividend received is unchanged by the split.

Answer 2

Yes, it's just another dividend. Splits and dividends are pretty synonymous.
