Textainer Group reinstates dividend

 Textainer's board of directors approved the reinstatement of the common dividend program and declared a $0.25 per common share cash dividend in the third quarter of 2021, payable on December 15, 2021 to holders of record as of December 3, 2021.

"Additionally, the Textainer board has decided to reinstate a quarterly common dividend program. This is supported by our confidence in the underlying long-term business fundamentals and our reliable and stable cash generation capability. Efficiently managing shareholder capital with a focus on shareholder returns is key to our capital allocation strategy and the reinstatement of the dividend program demonstrates this, adding to our already strong share repurchase program."

"The current market fundamentals are expected to continue to be favorable as cargo demand remains strong and supply chain disruptions are widely predicted to sustain through most of 2022. We plan to maintain our disciplined approach towards fleet growth, investing selectively in the most attractive long-term opportunities, and remain committed to enhancing our financial performance to deliver long-term value to our common shareholders focusing on dividends and share repurchases to return capital to shareholders," concluded Ghesquiere.
