Abacus Global Management, Inc. (“Abacus” or the “Company”) (NYSE: ABX), a financial services company specializing in alternative asset management, with a focus on longevity-based assets and personalized financial planning, today announced that its Board of Directors has approved an annual cash dividend of $0.22 per share, payable on December 16, 2026, to shareholders of record as of December 1, 2026 (the ex-dividend/record date). This is an increase of 10% from the $0.20 per share paid last year. Under its dividend policy, the Company intends to distribute an annual dividend of up to 25% of adjusted net income.
“Raising our annual dividend by 10% reflects our confidence in the earnings power of this business,” said Jay Jackson, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our cash generation gives us the flexibility to fund origination demand and continue to scale the platform while returning capital to shareholders.”
Jackson continued, “This increase is one part of a broader capital allocation strategy designed to create long-term shareholder value. With recurring revenues expected to approach 70% of total revenue over time, our goal is a durable, cash-generating business that compounds growth and rewards shareholders directly.”
Abacus expects to fund the annual dividend through cash on hand and free cash flow. The Company’s capital allocation strategy is designed to balance continued investment in origination growth, technology, and potential acquisitions with the return of capital to shareholders through an annual dividend and share repurchases.
