ALGONQUIN POWER & UTILITIES CORP. DECLARES SECOND QUARTER 2023 COMMON SHARE DIVIDEND OF U.S.$0.1085 (C$0.1453), AND DECLARES SECOND QUARTER 2023 PREFERRED SHARE DIVIDENDS

Algonquin Power & Utilities Corp.'s board of directors has approved and declared the following common and preferred share dividends.

  • 10.85 U.S. cents per common share, payable on July 14, 2023, to the shareholders of record on June 30, 2023, for the period from April 1, 2023, to June 30, 2023. Registered shareholders can elect to receive the dividend in Canadian dollars in the amount of 14.53 Canadian cents;
  • 32.263 Canadian cents per preferred share, Series A, payable in cash on June 30, 2023, to preferred share, Series A, holders of record on June 15, 2023, for the period from March 31, 2023, to, but excluding, June 30, 2023;
  • 31.819 Canadian cents per preferred share, Series D, payable in cash on June 30, 2023, to preferred share, Series D, holders of record on June 15, 2023, for the period from March 31, 2023, to, but excluding, June 30, 2023.

Each of the foregoing dividends will be paid in cash. Effective March 16, 2023, the company suspended the dividend reinvestment plan (DRIP) for its common shares. If the company elects to reinstate the DRIP in the future, shareholders who were enrolled in the DRIP at its suspension and remain enrolled at reinstatement will automatically resume participation in the DRIP.

The quarterly dividends payable on common shares are declared in U.S. dollars. Beneficial shareholders (those who hold common shares through a financial intermediary) who are resident in Canada or the United States may request to receive their dividends in either U.S. dollars or the Canadian-dollar equivalent by contacting the financial intermediary with whom the common shares are held. Unless the Canadian dollar equivalent is requested, holders of common shares will receive dividends in U.S. dollars, which, as is often the case, the financial intermediary may convert to Canadian dollars. Registered holders of common shares receive dividend payments in the currency of residency. Registered holders of common shares may opt to change the payment currency by contacting TSX Trust Company at 1-800-387-0825 prior to the record date of the dividend.

The Canadian-dollar equivalent of the quarterly common share dividend is based on the Bank of Canada daily average exchange rate on the day before the declaration date.

Pursuant to the Income Tax Act (Canada) and corresponding provincial legislation, the company hereby notifies holders of common shares, preferred shares, Series A, and preferred shares, Series D, that such dividends declared qualify as eligible dividends.
