Maximizing shareholder wealth and maximizing profit goes hand in hand. A firm maximizes shareholder wealth by investing in projects that will increase profits and the cash flows of the firm, finding ways to prudently cut variable and fixed operating costs and creating products that will increase revenues.

By taking these steps the firm therefore increases the shares of its stocks which increases shareholder wealth.
When a private company has shareholders, the profit, or some portion of it for distribution, is declared a dividend by the company's operators or directors. The amount of the profit is divided by the number of outstanding shares at the time of dividend declaration. Everyone holding a share receives that amount of money or other consideration as the company may deem appropriate. For example: A company has a $2 million profit and declares a dividend of $1 million. The other $1 million stays in retained earnings. If the company has 1 million outstanding shares, shareholders receive $1 per share. If you hold 1000 shares, your part of the dividend is $1000. Sometimes companies hand out extra shares instead of cash dividend checks.
The money a company periodically pays out is called a dividend. The money a stockholder receives by selling a share of stock is simply a return on their investment. (This may be a profit or loss, depending on whether the stock price has gone up or down while they held it).
Dividend is recieved by company shareholder as a profit and according to their shares.
