Can dividends be declared across multiple share classes in Dividend Statements?

ChangeGPS dividends across multiple share classes with per-class rates and summary totals

Yes. ChangeGPS Dividend Statement supports multiple share classes. In Step 2 — Share Classes, select Add Share Class to add each share class separately. Each share class has its own dividend per share amount and franking percentage, and a separate set of shareholders. This means you can declare a different dividend rate and franking level for ordinary shares versus preference shares, or for any other class of shares the company has issued. The Summary Statistics panel at the top of Step 2 shows the combined totals across all share classes — Total Dividends, Total Franking Credits, Average Franking Percentage, and Total Shareholders — so you can see the overall distribution at a glance.
