First Majestic Announces Inaugural Dividend Policy
07 Décembre 2020 - 1:00PM
FIRST MAJESTIC SILVER CORP. (AG: NYSE; FR: TSX) (the "Company" or
“First Majestic”) is pleased to announce that the Company’s Board
of Directors has adopted a dividend policy for the Company under
which the Company intends to pay quarterly dividends of 1% of the
Company’s net revenues commencing after the completion of the first
quarter of 2021. In accordance with the rules of the Toronto Stock
Exchange the Company will issue a press release at the time each
quarterly dividend is declared.
“The announcement of our inaugural dividend
policy is a major milestone for the Company and validates the
overall strength and sustainability of the business given our
robust operations in Mexico,” stated Keith Neumeyer, President and
CEO. “This new quarterly dividend also gives shareholders even
greater leverage to silver prices as the dividend is tied to the
revenues of the Company. I expect we will continue to benefit from
improved profitability in the years ahead to be able to build on
this initial dividend level.”
Payment of dividends under the dividend policy
will be subject to the discretion of the Board of Directors. The
Company will review the dividend policy on an ongoing basis and may
amend the policy at any time in light of the Company’s then current
financial position, profitability, cash flow, debt covenant
compliance, legal requirements and other factors considered
relevant. As such, no assurances can be made that any future
dividends will be declared and/or paid. Dividends paid to
shareholders outside Canada (non-resident investors) will be
subject to Canadian non-resident withholding taxes.
The Company also announces that effective
November 30, 2020, Nicole Adshead-Bell has resigned as a director
of the Company. Management would like to thank Nicole for her
contributions and wishes her all the best in her future
endeavours.
