Details of the Announcement

The distributions represent the Company’s continued commitment to rewarding its preferred shareholders with consistent income.

The announcement covers all three outstanding series of preferred shares, ensuring that all holders of these securities will receive their respective dividends as scheduled. The distributions are cumulative, so any missed payments would accrue and be paid subsequently, but CODI’s announcement affirms that the quarterly payments are being made as scheduled.
