Rand Capital Increases Regular Quarterly Cash Dividend 16% to $0.29 per Share for Second Quarter 2024

Rand Capital Corporation (Nasdaq: RAND) (“Rand” or the “Company”), a business development company providing alternative financing for lower middle market companies, announced today that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.29 per share, which increased $0.04 per share, or 16%, from the dividend paid in the first quarter of 2024. The dividend will be distributed on or about June 14, 2024, to shareholders of record as of May 31, 2024. Rand has approximately 2.6 million shares outstanding.

“This increase in our dividend underscores the strength and stability of our business operations, as well as our confidence in the future prospects of the Company,” commented Daniel P. Penberthy, President and CEO. “Looking ahead, we remain steadfast in our objective to further enhance shareholder value through continued dividend growth. Our strategy is centered on prudent and strategic investments, particularly in income-producing debt instruments. By focusing on these opportunities, we aim to generate consistent and reliable income streams, thereby supporting our ability to sustain and increase dividends over the long term.”

Additional Information Regarding Dividend Distributions

The amount and timing of dividend distributions, including future dividend distributions, are subject to the discretion of Rand’s Board of Directors. When declaring distributions, Rand’s Board of Directors reviews estimates of taxable income available for distribution, which may differ from consolidated net income under generally accepted accounting principles due to (i) changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation, (ii) temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition, and (iii) the amount of spillover income carried over from a given year for distribution in the following year.

The final determination of taxable income for each tax year, as well as the tax attributes for distributions in such tax year, will be made after the close of the tax year.
