Our common stock is traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol "CMCO." As of April 30, 2026, there were approximately 444 holders of record of our common stock. Because many of these shares are held by brokers and other institutions on behalf of the ultimate beneficial holders of these shares, we are unable to estimate the total number of shareholders represented by these record holders.
During fiscal 2026, the Company declared quarterly cash dividends totaling $8,049,000. On March 23, 2026, our Board declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.07 per common share. The dividend was paid on May 11, 2026 to shareholders of record as of May 1, 2026 and totaled approximately $2,012,000.
Our 2026 Revolving Credit Facility allows for the declaration and payment of dividends, subject to specified limitation as set forth in the agreement. We expect to continue to pay dividends in fiscal 2027 consistent with our historical amounts.
