A wave of companies in the S&P/ASX 200 Index (ASX: XJO) have already seen their shares turn ex-dividend this month.

Tomorrow, more dividends will be taken off the table as a handful of ASX 200 shares whisk away entitlements to their upcoming dividend payments.

Without further ado, here are three notable ASX 200 shares going ex-dividend tomorrow.

South32 Ltd (ASX: S32)

Today will be the last day to scoop up South32’s fully franked final dividend of 17 US cents, which includes a special dividend of 3 US cents. It will be paid on 13 October.

The ASX 200 miner delivered record earnings and cash flow in FY22, capitalising on elevated commodity prices.

Underlying revenue jumped 45% to US$10.6 billion while underlying earnings surged four-fold to US$2.6 billion.

Across the financial year, South32 declared ordinary dividends of 22.7 US cents. This represents a whopping 363% increase from the ordinary dividends seen in FY21.

What’s more, the board declared special dividends of 3 US cents, up from 2 US cents in the prior year.

Altogether, South32 shares are currently printing a sizeable trailing dividend yield of 8.7%. Including franking credits, this yield cranks up to 12.4%.

Seven Group Holdings Ltd (ASX: SVW)

Seven Group is another ASX 200 share going ex-dividend tomorrow. Shares will be trading without a fully franked final dividend of 23 cents, which will be paid on 28 October.

In FY22, the diversified investment group delivered underlying net profit after tax (NPAT) of $577 million, up 14% from the prior year. This was driven by outperformance at WesTrac, Coates, Beach Energy Ltd (ASX: BPT) and Boral Limited (ASX: BLD).

However, on a statutory basis, NPAT backtracked by 4%, impacted by impairments and transaction costs at Boral and Seven West Media Ltd (ASX: SWM).

Ultimately, Seven decided to hold its fully franked annual dividends steady at 46 cents. This puts Seven shares on a trailing dividend yield of 2.4%, which grosses up to 3.5% including franking credits.

Fletcher Building Limited (ASX: FBU)

Rounding out this trio of ASX 200 shares turning ex-dividend tomorrow is Kiwi building products company, Fletcher.

Fletcher recently announced its FY22 results, hiking its unfranked final dividend by 22% to 22 NZ cents. 

As part of a Kiwi tax regime, the company will also be paying a supplementary dividend of roughly 3.9 NZ cents per share to shareholders who aren’t New Zealand residents.

Investors who own Fletcher shares by the time the market closes today should see these funds land in their account on 6 October.

Amidst a backdrop of supply chain disruptions, Fletcher delivered revenue of NZ$8.5 billion in FY22, up 5% from the prior year.

Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) before significant items grew at a faster clip, lifting 13% to NZ$688 million.

Across the financial year, Fletcher declared annual ordinary dividends of 40 NZ cents per share, up 33% from FY21. 

This puts Fletcher shares on a trailing dividend yield of 7.1%. Including supplementary dividends, this yield ticks up above 8%.
