Nexstar Media Group Raises Quarterly Cash Dividend By 29%

Nexstar Media Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: NXST) announced today that its Board of Directors approved a 29% increase in the quarterly cash dividend to $0.90 per share of its Class A common stock beginning with the dividend declared for the first quarter of 2022. The dividend is payable on Monday, February 28, 2022, to shareholders of record on Friday, February 11, 2022.

Perry Sook, Nexstar Media Group’s Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer stated, “Nexstar’s ninth consecutive annual dividend increase represents a compound annual growth rate of 25% since the dividend was initiated in 2013. Our capital allocation priorities remain focused on creating near- and long-term shareholder value by deploying our free cash flow through a mix of debt repayments, share repurchases, dividend payments and strategic investments and acquisitions. We look forward to reporting our fourth quarter financial results next month.”

While the Company intends to pay regular quarterly cash dividends for the foreseeable future, all subsequent dividends will be reviewed quarterly and declared by the Board of Directors at its discretion.
