CALGARY, Alberta, March 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- TransGlobe Energy Corporation (“TransGlobe” or the “Company”) announces declaration of dividend and changes to the composition of its Board of Directors.
DECLARATION OF DIVIDEND
TransGlobe announced that its Board of Directors has declared a dividend of US$0.035 per common share, which will be paid in cash on April 18, 2019 to shareholders of record on March 29, 2019.
The dividend is designated as an eligible dividend under the Income Tax Act (Canada).
TransGlobe’s dividend policy is to return capital to shareholders through semi-annual payments of a significant portion of free cash flow. For these purposes, free cash flow is defined as net cash generated by operating activities less capital expenditures, debt repayments, and anticipated business development capital, calculated on an annual basis.
BOARD CHANGES
On May 11, 2018 the Company announced its intention to transition from a Board of Directors consisting of nine to seven members by the 2019 AGM with five of seven members being independent. This transition plan is finalized, has been successfully managed to ensure minimal disruption to the Company and its governance processes, and will be complete at our AGM in May.
Effective March 12, 2019 Mr. Edward David LaFehr (age 59) will join the Board as a non-executive independent director. Mr. LaFehr is the President and CEO of Baytex Energy Corp., a Canadian headquartered oil and gas company engaged in the acquisition, development and production of crude oil and natural gas in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin and in the Eagle Ford in the United States whose shares are listed on the TSX in Canada and the NYSE in the United States. Mr. LaFehr has extensive international experience with various major and independent companies over his 30+ year career, including living and working in Egypt. Mr. LaFehr will be replacing Mr. Bob MacDougall who has resigned from the Board effective immediately. The Board wishes to thank Mr. MacDougall for his contributions to the Board over the past four years.

Mr. Jennings, Chairman of TransGlobe Energy commented:
