Winmark Corporation Announces Quarterly Cash Dividend and Special Dividend<\/b><\/p>\n

MINNEAPOLIS–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–Winmark Corporation (Nasdaq: WINA) announced today that its Board of Directors approved the payment of a quarterly cash dividend to shareholders. The quarterly dividend of $1.02 per share will be paid on December 1, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 11, 2026. Future dividends will be subject to Board approval.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the Board of Directors approved the payment of a special dividend to shareholders. The special dividend of $4.00 per share will be paid on December 1, 2026, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 11, 2026. The total amount of the special dividend will be approximately $14.2 million based on the current number of shares outstanding. It is anticipated that Winmark will use cash on hand to finance the special dividend. Future dividends will be subject to board approval.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are retaining higher levels of cash than in recent years to provide additional flexibility with respect to share repurchases as well as the upcoming maturity of $60 million of debt over the next thirty months. We believe this is the appropriate move for our capital structure,\u201d stated Brett D. Heffes, Chair and Chief Executive Officer.<\/p>\n
