CSX is distributing $259.3 million to shareholders, with the payment landing on September 15 for investors who hold shares as of today's ex-dividend date, August 31. Missing today's cutoff means waiting until the next dividend cycle to collect.

AGNC Investment is the second-largest total payout of the group at $142.3 million, with its payment arriving sooner than the rest on September 10. At $0.12 per share, it reflects the frequent distribution schedule that mortgage REITs typically maintain.

First Citizens Bancshares is the standout on a per-share basis at $2.10, the richest single-share amount among the five companies going ex-dividend today. Its total payout of $21.6 million is the smallest of the group, which points to a more concentrated share structure rather than a smaller dividend commitment.

Newell Brands and StepStone Group round out the list at $0.07 and $0.33 per share, with total payouts of $29.8 million and $27.2 million respectively, both settling on September 15 alongside CSX.
