Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Dividend Reports And Estimates.

DENVER, Colo., Sept. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ArrowMark Financial Corp., (NASDAQ: BANX) (“ArrowMark Financial” or the “Fund”), today announced that its Board of Directors increased the quarterly cash distribution to $0.45 per share from $0.39 per share, an increase of $0.06 from the previous recurring quarterly rate.

Earnings have benefited from the Fund’s meaningful exposure to floating rate assets, at approximately 86%, and a higher asset base. While the rising rate environment has buoyed earnings, the Fund had entered its third year of consistently exceeding the previous declared distributions. This has allowed the Fund to deliver on its objective to provide shareholders with current income.

“We are very pleased to announce net income for Q2 2023 was $0.62 per share, well in excess of the previous quarterly distribution rate of $0.39 per share. We believe this distribution increase reflects the Fund’s ability to consistently over-earn its declared quarterly distribution rate. ArrowMark Financial is committed to providing consistent risk-adjusted returns while maintaining focus on capital preservation and income generation for our shareholders,” said Chairman & CEO Sanjai Bhonsle.

The distribution will be payable on September 29, 2023, to shareholders of record on September 22, 2023.
