Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
The combination of a sizable US$1.08 quarterly dividend (7%+ yield at current CAD price) and a near-term NCIB indicates stronger shareholder return and potential price support. Historical precedents show dividend hikes or new buybacks often cap downside and provide a near-term equity floor, especially for cash-generative mining peers.
