DMC Global Increases Cash Dividend

BROOMFIELD, Colo., Sept. 04, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMC Global Inc. BOOM today announced it has increased its annual cash dividend to $0.50 per share from $0.08 per share. The dividend will be paid quarterly at a rate of $0.125 per share, with the next payment scheduled for October 15, 2019, to shareholders of record as of September 30, 2019.

The increase more than restores a $0.16 annual dividend that was reduced in 2015 following the downturn in the oil and gas industry.

"Our dividend increase is made possible by strong financial performance, a solid balance sheet, and confidence in the long-term strength of our markets and growth opportunities," said Kevin Longe, president and CEO. "DMC's purpose is to create superior value for its customers, employees, and shareholders. We believe our shareholders benefit most when we pursue growth objectives and share price appreciation while maintaining a conservative capital structure and the discipline of returning capital through dividends."
