This transaction amounted to 98% of their direct individual holding at the time of the trade. This was the largest sale by an insider in the last 3 months. Insiders have been net sellers, collectively disposing of CA$2.0m more than they bought in the last 12 months.Declared Dividend • Mar 16Third quarter dividend of CA$0.22 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of CA$0.22. Ex-date: 15th April 2026 Payment date: 30th April 2026 Dividend yield will be 1.8%, which is higher than the industry average of 1.3%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (125% earnings payout ratio). However, it is well covered by cash flows (15% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 8.2% per year over the past 10 years and has been stable with no material reductions to payments, indicating a long track record of dividend growth and stability. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 39% to bring the payout ratio under control. However, EPS has declined by 23% over the last 5 years so the company would need to reverse this trend.New Risk • Mar 15New minor risk - Dividend sustainabilityThe dividend is not well covered by earnings. Payout ratio: 125% Dividend yield: 1.8% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. However, this risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by cash flows. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 4.9% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (125% payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.5% net profit margin).お知らせ • Mar 13Empire Company Limited Declares Quarterly Dividend Class A and B Common Shares, Payable on April 30, 2026The Board of Directors of Empire Company Limited declared a quarterly dividend of $0.22 per share on both the Class A shares and the Class B common shares that will be payable on April 30, 2026 to shareholders of record on April 15, 2026. These dividends are eligible dividends as defined for the purposes of the Income Tax Act (Canada) and applicable provincial legislation.New Risk • Mar 13New minor risk - Profit margin trendThe company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%. Net profit margin: 0.5% Last year net profit margin: 2.2% This is considered a minor risk. A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 4.9% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.5% net profit margin).Reported Earnings • Mar 13Third quarter 2026 earnings: Revenues and EPS in line with analyst expectationsThird quarter 2026 results: CA$1.68 loss per share (down from CA$0.62 profit in 3Q 2025).

Total value of shares sold: CA$950k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.お知らせ • Jul 24+ 3 more updatesEmpire Company Limited to Report Q4, 2026 Results on Jun 18, 2026Empire Company Limited announced that they will report Q4, 2026 results on Jun 18, 2026Recent Insider Transactions Derivative • Jul 13President exercised options and sold CA$2.6m worth of stockOn the 10th of July, Michael Medline exercised options to acquire 45k shares at no cost and sold these for an average price of CA$56.68 per share.

Declared Dividend • Mar 16Third quarter dividend of CA$0.22 announcedShareholders will receive a dividend of CA$0.22. Ex-date: 15th April 2026 Payment date: 30th April 2026 Dividend yield will be 1.8%, which is higher than the industry average of 1.3%. Sustainability & Growth Dividend is not covered by earnings (125% earnings payout ratio). However, it is well covered by cash flows (15% cash payout ratio). The dividend has increased by an average of 8.2% per year over the past 10 years and has been stable with no material reductions to payments, indicating a long track record of dividend growth and stability. The company's earnings per share (EPS) would need to grow by 39% to bring the payout ratio under control. However, EPS has declined by 23% over the last 5 years so the company would need to reverse this trend.
New Risk • Mar 15New minor risk - Dividend sustainabilityThe dividend is not well covered by earnings. Payout ratio: 125% Dividend yield: 1.8% This is considered a minor risk. Companies that pay out too much of their earnings are at risk of having to reduce or cut their dividend in future. If earnings growth slows or earnings fall, then there may not be enough earnings to maintain the same dividend. Or in extreme cases, companies may opt to dig into capital reserves or take on debt to maintain the dividend. However, this risk is mitigated by the fact the dividend is covered by cash flows. For dividend paying companies, any reduction in the dividend can significantly impact the share price. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 4.9% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Dividend is not well covered by earnings (125% payout ratio). Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.5% net profit margin).

New Risk • Mar 13New minor risk - Profit margin trendThe company's profit margins are lower than last year and have reduced by more than 30%. Net profit margin: 0.5% Last year net profit margin: 2.2% This is considered a minor risk. A large drop in profit margin could indicate the company does not have strong competitive advantages or it is yet to establish itself and its core business. Even if it is a well established business, this may make it a much riskier investment than one that has a combination of proven competitive advantages and a stable or growing profit margin. Currently, the following risks have been identified for the company: Major Risk Earnings have declined by 4.9% per year over the past 5 years. Minor Risks Large one-off items impacting financial results. Profit margins are more than 30% lower than last year (0.5% net profit margin).

New Risk • Jul 30New minor risk - Insider sellingThere has been significant insider selling in the company's shares over the past 3 months. Total value of shares sold: CA$950k This is considered a minor risk. There are several reasons why an insider may be selling, including to cover a tax obligation or pay for some other expense. However, we generally consider it a negative if insiders have been selling, especially if they do so below the current price. It implies that they considered a lower price to be reasonable. This is a weak signal, but if there is a pattern of unexplained selling, it can be a sign the insider believes the company's stock is overpriced. Note: We only include open market transactions and private dispositions of directly owned stock by individuals, not by corporations or trusts. This is currently the only risk that has been identified for the company.
