TORONTO, CANADA -- Canadian General Investments, Limited ("CGI" or "the Company") has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.31 per share payable on September 15, 2026 to common shareholders of record at the close of business on August 31, 2026 ("the Dividend").

CGI has the ability to pay two types of dividends to common shareholders: regular (taxable) dividends and capital gains dividends, such as this one. Since CGI qualifies as an investment corporation for Canadian income tax purposes, the payment of capital gains dividends allows the Company to recover taxes paid, or payable, on realized capital gains.

Its objective is to provide better than average returns to investors through prudent security selection, timely recognition of capital gains/losses and appropriate income generating instruments.
