BALTIMORE, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MarketWise, Inc. (NASDAQ: MKTW) (“MarketWise” or the “Company”), a leading multi-brand digital subscription services platform that provides premium financial research, software, education, and tools for self-directed investors, announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend to holders of Class A common stock of $0.45 per share on August 4, 2026. A distribution of $0.25 per unit has also been approved to holders of MarketWise, LLC units. A portion of the dividends paid to Class A shareholders are a result of our corporate structure, resulting tax distribution payments, and excess tax distributions received by the Company. Historically, we have characterized these dividends that are funded from the excess tax distributions (currently at $0.20) as “special”. However, given the mechanical nature of the excess tax distribution and resulting dividend, along with the expectation that tax distributions will continue, beginning this quarter these dividends will be recharacterized as “regular” along with the other recurring regular dividend of $0.25, for a total quarterly dividend of $0.45. The dividend and distribution will be paid on September 30, 2026. The Record Date is August 19, 2026.
