Insights

IGI is making a sizable one-time cash return to shareholders.

International General Insurance Holdings Ltd. has declared an extraordinary cash dividend of $1.15 per common share. Extraordinary dividends are typically non-recurring and often signal that management believes the balance sheet and capital position can support a special payout.

This move directly increases near-term cash received by shareholders and may suggest that recent underwriting and investment performance have generated surplus capital. However, the announcement does not quantify the dividend relative to earnings or book value, so the scale versus the overall franchise is not detailed in this excerpt.

Investors can focus on the March 18, 2026 record date and the April 6, 2026 payment date, while subsequent company filings and communications may clarify how this extraordinary dividend fits into IGI’s broader capital management strategy and ongoing dividend approach.
