What is REALTY INCOME CORP (O)?
REALTY INCOME CORP trades on NYSE under the ticker O. It's a public company registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under CIK 0000726728, which means it files standardized financial reports (10-K annual, 10-Q quarterly) that anyone can read for free on EDGAR, the SEC's public filing system.
Does O pay a dividend, and how does the ex-dividend date work?
A dividend is a cash payment a company declares to its shareholders out of its profits. Three dates matter: the declaration date (when the board announces it, the only one captured by the structured SEC data on this page), the ex-dividend date (buy the stock on or after this date and you won't get that payment) and the payment date (when the cash actually arrives). We don't show ex-dividend or payment dates on this page — the SEC's structured XBRL data only gives us the amount declared and the fiscal period it covers, not those calendar dates, and we never estimate them.
O does declare a dividend: SEC XBRL data (tag `CommonStockDividendsPerShareDeclared`, from a 10-Q filing) shows 0.1458 USD per share declared for the period January 1, 2012 to March 31, 2012.
What does this O page actually show?

Glossário: os termos desta página
Dividend
A cash payment a company makes to its shareholders, usually out of profit. Not every public company pays one.
Declared dividend
The dividend amount a company's board has formally announced, as reported in its own SEC filing. That's the figure we show on this page - never an estimate.
Ex-dividend date
The first day a stock trades without the value of its next dividend. Buy on or after this date and you won't receive that specific payment. This page doesn't show this date - the SEC's structured XBRL data doesn't include it.
Payment date
The date the dividend cash actually reaches shareholders - typically a few weeks after the record date.
10-K / 10-Q
The two main periodic reports every US public company must file with the SEC: the 10-K once a year, the 10-Q every quarter. Dividend amounts declared during the period often show up in these.

XBRL
A structured, machine-readable format the SEC requires in financial filings. It's what lets us pull an exact dividend-per-share figure programmatically, instead of reading a PDF by hand.
