The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share, an increase of $0.02 per share or 20%, as well as a supplemental dividend of $3.00 per share, to holders of its common stock. The dividends will be paid on December 15, 2021 to stockholders of record on December 1, 2021.
Future dividend declarations, including amount per share, record date and payment date, will be made by the Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, legal capital requirements and surplus, the Company’s future operations and earnings, general financial condition, contractual obligations, restrictions imposed by our asset-based credit facility and the indenture governing our senior notes, applicable laws, and other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant.
“We have consistently stated our intent to maintain a balanced and flexible approach to capital allocation. Today we can reward our shareholders with an increase in our quarterly dividend and our second supplemental dividend of 2021,” stated Nate Jorgensen, CEO. “At the same time, we have retained ample balance sheet capacity to reinvest in our existing asset base and pursue organic or acquisition opportunities that align with our strategic growth priorities.”
