GROSSE POINTE FARMS, Mich., May 09, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Saga Communications, Inc. (Nasdaq – SGA) (the\u00a0\u201cCompany\u201d, \u201cSaga\u201d or \u201cour\u201d) today announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.25 per share. The dividend will be paid on June 16, 2023, to shareholders of record on May 22, 2023. The aggregate amount of the payment to be made in connection with the quarterly dividend will be approximately $1.5 million. The quarterly dividend will be funded by cash on the Company\u2019s balance sheet. Including this dividend, the Company will have paid approximately $110 million in dividends to shareholders since the first special dividend was paid in 2012.<\/p>\n

The Company currently intends to declare regular quarterly cash dividends, special dividends, variable dividends, and stock buybacks in the future. The declaration and payment of any future dividend, whether fixed, special, or based on the variable policy, will remain at the full discretion of the Company\u2019s Board of Directors and will depend on the Company\u2019s financial results, cash requirements, future expectations, and other factors that the Company\u2019s Board of Directors finds relevant at the time of any declaration.<\/p>\n

As previously reported our Board adopted a variable dividend policy for the allocation of cash flows aligned with the goals of maintaining a strong balance sheet, increasing cash returns to shareholders, and continuing to grow the Company through strategic acquisitions. Under the new policy in addition to any quarterly and special dividends paid, the Company may declare an additional dividend in the Second Quarter of each year of 70% of the preceding year\u2019s Free Cash Flow as reported in the Company\u2019s fourth quarter earnings release, net of acquisitions, special, quarterly and variable dividends, debt paydowns and debt issuance costs and stock buybacks.<\/p>\n
