Dividend Growth Split Corp. Launches New Funding Initiative
Dividend Growth Split Corp. Launches New ATM Equity Program
Dividend Growth Split Corp. is excited to announce the renewal of its at-the-market equity program (ATM Program), a strategic move designed to provide greater flexibility in managing the Fund's finances. This program allows the Fund to issue Class A Shares and Preferred Shares directly to the public at market price, reflecting the Fund's proactive approach to capital management.
Program Details and Implementation
The renewed ATM Program enables the Fund to replace its previous program that has now concluded. By issuing shares at the current market prices, the Fund can optimize the capital it raises while offering investors a chance to acquire shares of the Fund based on prevailing market valuations. The program is set to operate under a financial distribution agreement with RBC Capital Markets, ensuring the strategic handling of share sales.
Distribution Timing and Volume
The timing and volume for distributions under this program will solely depend on the Fund’s discretion, allowing for a tailored approach to market conditions. This ensures that the Fund's initiatives align closely with its operational strategies and market dynamics.
Investment Strategy of the Fund
The Fund primarily invests in a diverse portfolio of equity securities from Canadian dividend growth companies. To enhance diversification and potential returns, it may also allocate a portion of its assets—up to 20%—to global dividend growth companies. This strategy is guided by the expertise of Brompton Funds Limited, the Fund's Manager, who meticulously selects companies based on their robust market capitalization and potential for future dividend growth.
Objectives for Shareholders
For holders of Class A Shares, the Fund aims to provide regular monthly cash distributions, targeting $0.10 per share, in addition to growth in the net asset value per share. The Preferred Shares, on the other hand, are set to offer fixed quarterly cash distributions, ensuring a steady income stream for investors.
Impressive Historical Performance
Over the past decade, the Class A Shares have achieved a remarkable average annual return of 12.8%, significantly surpassing the S&P/TSX Composite Total Return Index by 4.1%. Meanwhile, the Preferred Shares have delivered a solid 5.5% annual return, outperforming their comparable index by 2.5%. This performance underscores the Fund's ability to generate value for its investors consistently.
