Amerigo Resources Ltd. has declared its third and largest performance dividend of 2026 at Cdn$0.21 per share, lifting total year-to-date performance payouts to Cdn$0.55 per share.

The latest payment follows a performance dividend of Cdn$0.18 per share declared on July 6, 2026. Based on Amerigo's closing share price of Cdn$8.28 on September 11, 2026, the 2026 dividends represent an 8.6% yield before accounting for ongoing share buybacks.

Amerigo produces copper and molybdenum concentrates at its Minera Valle Central operation in Chile through a long-term relationship with Corporación Nacional del Cobre de Chile.

“The Board has declared Amerigo's third and largest performance dividend of 2026, reflecting solid year-to-date operational and financial results. The performance dividend is the flexible component of our Capital Return Strategy. It allows us to return cash generated above the Company's operating and strategic requirements while maintaining a strong, debt-free balance sheet through copper price cycles. This declaration reflects the discipline embedded in our Capital Return Strategy: retain the capital the business requires and return excess cash to shareholders when it is earned”

— Aurora Davidson, President and CEO

Since launching the Capital Return Strategy in October 2021, Amerigo has returned $161.3 million to shareholders through dividends and buybacks. Total returns will reach approximately $190.5 million once the company pays the July 27, 2026 quarterly dividend alongside the current performance payout.

The Cdn$0.21 per share distribution is scheduled for payment on October 14, 2026, to shareholders of record on September 21, 2026. Under the T+1 settlement cycle, Amerigo shares will begin trading ex-dividend at the opening of the market on September 21, 2026.
