MINERALS TECHNOLOGIES ANNOUNCES INCREASE IN QUARTERLY DIVIDEND AND NEW SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM
NEW YORK, October 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Minerals Technologies Inc. (NYSE: MTX) (“MTI” or “the Company”) today announced a 10%
increase of its regular quarterly dividend on the Company’s common stock to $0.11 per share. The dividend is payable on December 5, 2024, to stockholders of record at the close of business on October 31, 2024.
In addition, MTI’s Board of Directors has authorized a new $200 million share repurchase program. The Company expects
to repurchase shares under this authorization as part of its balanced approach to capital allocation.
“Increasing our dividend and authorizing a new repurchase program reflects the Board’s ongoing confidence in MTI’s financial strength as we continue to grow
earnings and cash flow," said Douglas T. Dietrich, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The combination of this increased dividend and new repurchase program demonstrates our commitment to shareholder returns, while also allowing us to maintain the
flexibility to fund inorganic growth opportunities.”
In October 2024, the Company completed its previous one-year $75 million share repurchase program.
Under the new share repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market, through Rule
10b5-1 trading plans, or in privately negotiated transactions at the Company’s discretion, subject to market conditions and other factors, and in accordance with applicable regulatory requirements. The program does not require the purchase of any
minimum number of shares and may be suspended or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
