Distribution of profits is obviously a dividend, but it is not the only form of dividend. If you had read on you would have learned:

In addition to regular dividends, there are times a company may pay a special one-time dividend. These are rare and can occur for a variety of reasons such as a major litigation win, the sale of a business or liquidation of a investment. They can take the form of cash, stock or property dividends.
