Penberthy, President and CEO, commented, \u201cIn 2024, we successfully executed strategic portfolio exits and achieved what we believe are meaningful gains, even while navigating a challenging economic environment. In the third quarter, we realized a $7.7 million gain from the sale of SciAps, marking a significant step in winding down our legacy investments. Additionally, earlier in the year, we divested our BDC and ACV Auctions holdings, contributing to total net realized gains of $11.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. These achievements not only reflect our ability to unlock value from the portfolio but also supported an increase in shareholder dividends. Looking ahead, this activity aligns with our ongoing strategy to transition to a targeted, debt-focused portfolio primarily comprised of mezzanine debt investments. We believe this strategy will provide strong, consistent income and continue to enhance shareholder returns over the long term.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\nThe total amount of cash to be distributed to all shareholders for the dividend will be limited to 20% of the aggregate amount of the total dividend to be paid (the \u201cCash Limitation\u201d), or approximately $2.2 million, excluding any cash paid for fractional shares. The remaining portion of the dividend will be paid in shares of Rand\u2019s common stock. The exact distribution of cash and stock to any given shareholder will be dependent upon his\/her election as well as elections of other shareholders, subject to the Cash Limitation. The dividend will be distributed on or about January 24, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe amount, details and U.S. federal tax consequences of the dividend will be described in the election form and accompanying materials that will be mailed to shareholders in connection with the dividend promptly following the Record Date. Election forms must be returned on or before 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on January 7, 2025 (the &#8220;Election Deadline&#8221;) to be effective. Shareholders who do not return a timely and properly completed election form before the Election Deadline will be deemed to have made an election to receive the dividend all in cash, subject to the Cash Limitation.<\/p>\n<p>\nShareholders who hold their shares through a bank, broker or nominee, or in \u201cstreet name,\u201d will not receive an election form directly from Rand and should receive information regarding the election process from their bank, broker or nominee. Street name holders should contact their bank, broker or nominee for additional information.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe total number of shares of common stock to be distributed to shareholders receiving all or a portion of the dividend in shares of Rand\u2019s common stock will be determined based upon the volume-weighted average price of the common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on December 11, 12 and 13, 2024.<\/p>\n<p><b>Additional Information Regarding Dividend Distributions<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nThe amount and timing of dividend distributions, including future dividend distributions, are subject to the discretion of Rand\u2019s Board of Directors. When declaring distributions, Rand\u2019s Board of Directors reviews estimates of taxable income available for distribution, which may differ from consolidated net income under generally accepted accounting principles due to (i) changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation, (ii) temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition, and (iii) the amount of spillover income carried over from a given year for distribution in the following year.<\/p>\n<p>\nThe final determination of taxable income for each tax year, as well as the tax attributes for distributions in such tax year, will be made after the close of the tax year.<\/p>\n<p><b>ABOUT RAND CAPITAL CORPORATION<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nRand Capital Corporation (Nasdaq: RAND) is an externally managed business development company (BDC).
