FIRSTSERVICE DECLARES 11% INCREASE TO QUARTERLY CASH DIVIDEND
FirstService Corp.'s board of directors has approved an 11-per-cent increase in the quarterly cash dividend on the outstanding common shares of the company and declared a quarterly dividend of 30.5 U.S. cents per common share, up from the previous 27.5 U.S. cents per common share. The dividend is payable on April 7, 2026, to holders of common shares of record at the close of business on March 31, 2026.
The company's dividend will be $1.22 (U.S.) on an annualized basis, up from $1.10 (U.S.) during the past year. For more than 10 years, FirstService has delivered annual dividend growth of at least 10 per cent, supported by the long-term record of strong earnings and free cash flow growth at the company. As the company continues to drive responsible growth while maintaining a conservative balance sheet, it retains the financial flexibility to raise dividends and deliver additional returns to its shareholders.
The dividend on common shares is an eligible dividend for Canadian income tax purposes.
