What are two ways a corporation can distribute cash to it's shareholders?

A corporation can distribute cash to its shareholders primarily through dividends and share buybacks. Dividends are regular payments made to shareholders, typically from the company's profits, providing them with a direct return on their investment. Share buybacks involve the company repurchasing its own shares from the market, which can increase the value of remaining shares and provide an indirect return to shareholders. Both methods aim to enhance shareholder value.
