Regulation FD Disclosure
On July 26, 2017, Collectors Universe, Inc. issued a press release announcing that, pursuant to its previously adopted dividend policy, the Board of Directors has declared the Company's quarterly cash dividend of $0.35 per share of common stock for the first quarter of fiscal 2018. The cash dividend will be paid on August 25, 2017 to stockholders of record on August 16, 2017.
The declaration of future cash dividends, pursuant to the Company's dividend policy, is subject to final determination each quarter by the Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including the Company's financial performance and its available cash resources, its cash requirements and alternative uses of cash that the Board may conclude would represent an opportunity to generate a greater return on investment for the Company. For these reasons, as well as others, there can be no assurance that dividends in the future will be equal or similar in amount to the amounts described in this press release or that the Board of Directors will not decide to suspend or discontinue
,
altogether
,
the payment of cash dividends in the future.
