Slide Insurance Declares $1.50 One-Time Special Dividend Plus $0.07 Quarterly
SLDE sits 88% above its 52-week low of $15.11.
Summary
Slide's board declared a one-time special dividend of $1.50 per share alongside its regular $0.07 quarterly payout, both payable November 30 to holders of record November 23. The special dividend is roughly 5% of the $28.39 share price and returns about $1.57 per share in total to holders in a single payment. Management framed it as confidence in the balance sheet and business model while retaining capital for growth, and the company has been buying back stock aggressively through 2026. The stock sits near its 52-week high, so this is a cash return on top of an already strong run rather than a rescue move. Watch the November 23 record date and whether the payout signals a slower pace of buybacks going forward.
