Hecla pays an annual minimum common stock dividend of $0.015 per share to be paid quarterly at $0.00375 per share.
Hecla also pays a silver price-linked common stock dividend based on Hecla’s average realized silver price for the preceding quarter (starting with a minimum average realized silver price of $20.00). Realized prices are calculated by dividing gross revenues for each metal by the payable quantities of each metal included in concentrate and doré sold during the period.
Hecla pays a $0.875 per share dividend on its Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (HL-PB) each quarter. Dividends are typically paid to shareholders of the Series B Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock on January 1, April 1, July 1, and October 1.
The declaration and payment of dividends remains at the sole discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on Hecla’s financial results, cash requirements (including for preferred dividends, operations, capital projects, exploration and development, litigation and settlements, acquisitions, and other items), future prospects and other factors deemed relevant by the Board.
***If you are a Common Stock shareholder or a Preferred B shareholder who has moved and you have not received your dividend payments, please contact Hecla’s transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company at 800-937-5449.
