Pulse's Board of Directors today approved a quarterly dividend of $0.0175 per share and additionally declared a special dividend of $0.10 per share. The total of the dividends will be approximately $6.0 million based on Pulse's 50,714,857 common shares outstanding as of February 24, 2026, to be paid on March 26, 2026, to shareholders of record on March 19, 2026. These dividends are designated as eligible dividends for Canadian income tax purposes. For non-resident shareholders, Pulse's dividends are subject to Canadian withholding tax.
"The excellent financial performance of the Company in 2025 included year over year increases in both traditional and transaction-based sales, leading to $51.1 million of total revenue," stated Neal Coleman, Pulse's President and CEO. "Seventy-five percent of shareholder free cashflow was returned to shareholders as dividends during the year, and today, based on these strong results the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $0.10 per share in addition to the regular dividend," Coleman continued. "Pulse's seismic data library assets are a valuable risk mitigation tool to the energy industry. The Company is positioned with a strong balance sheet and low-cost structure which includes a regular quarterly dividend, and although annual sales levels fluctuate in this business, significant returns of capital continue to occur in years of higher revenue. Pulse has declared $1.20 per share in dividends since resuming regular dividends in late 2021," concluded Coleman.
