True....however, a special dividend and/or value created by a huge settlement with regards to an entry to the balance sheet can create incremental value to the company and shares of that company. Clearly there are extenuating costs to legal action such as this and a settlement disbursement. Back pay, legal fees, personal and financial liabilities and compensations, extenuating and inordinate fees accumulated over a decade of this action. Many things to consider before the shareholders see their fair share even it’s created thru company valuation and increase in share price. But certainly shareholders can expect to see some sort of indirect or residual value if a major dollar amount is settled as a result of this suit. Time will tell.

Shareholders are not owners is an ill-informed statement however you are correct in saying companies are not required to pay a dividend
