Dividends

The Board of Directors of Amerigo will continue to declare dividends depending on a number of factors including but not limited to the Company’s financial performance, the copper market outlook and the level of activity of the Company’s share buyback programs.

Eligible dividends

Amerigo views common share dividends as an important part of a shareholder's return on investment. 

The Board of Directors of Amerigo reinstated the declaration and payment of dividends in the fourth quarter of 2021 and is currently paying a sustainable quarterly dividend of Cdn$0.03 per share, and has announced a performance dividend mechanism which can be used at any time and in any amount to distribute surplus cash to shareholders, with a targeted minimum corporate cash balance of $20 to $25 million. 

Amerigo has designated all dividends since December 31, 2005, as “eligible dividends” for purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada), as amended from time to time.

Withholding taxes

For Canadian non-resident taxpayers, complete either an IRS Form W-9 (US persons) or a form NR301 (all others) to indicate that you are a Canadian non-resident taxpayer, resident in a country that Canada has a tax treaty with, and you are eligible to receive a reduced withholding tax rate. Any account where a reduced rate has not been validly claimed will be subject to the maximum Canadian withholding tax rate of 25%. Responses must be received by each dividend record date. No withholding tax will be applied to residents of Canada.

Completed forms can be submitted by email to service@computershare.com. Additional inquiries can be referred to Computershare’s Investor Services at 1-800-564-6253.
