Routine 8-K: quarterly results release and a $0.30 dividend.

Monarch Casino & Resort announced Q3 2025 results via an attached press release and declared a $0.30 per-share cash dividend. A declared dividend is a direct cash return to shareholders and reflects current board policy, but its size and sustainability depend on ongoing cash generation and capital needs.

The filing lists the record date as December 1, 2025 and payment on December 15, 2025. Without the press release financials in this excerpt, the dividend’s coverage and payout ratio can’t be assessed here. Actual investor impact turns on the Q3 metrics and any trends discussed in Exhibit 99.1.
