Insights

RLI declared a $2.00 special plus $0.16 regular dividend.

RLI Corp. will distribute two cash dividends: a one-time special dividend of $2.00 per share and its regular quarterly dividend of $0.16 per share. The Board’s approval sets the record date at November 28, 2025 and payment on December 19, 2025.

This action returns cash directly to shareholders. The filing lists the amounts and timing; it does not discuss rationale, capital position, or future payout cadence beyond this regular dividend declaration.

Key mechanics to note are the record date and payment date, which determine eligibility and timing for holders. Further details, if any, are referenced in Exhibit 99.1.
