Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. Declares 10% Stock Dividend

Guaranty Bancshares, Inc. (NASDAQ: GNTY), the parent company of Guaranty Bank & Trust, N.A., today announced that its Board of Directors has declared a 10% stock dividend for shareholders of record as of February 5, 2021. As an example, each shareholder will receive one additional share of stock for every ten shares owned on the effective date of February 12, 2021.

Ty Abston, Chairman and CEO of the Company stated, “The Board is very pleased with the progress the Company and Guaranty Bank & Trust made in 2020, especially with the COVID-19 challenges we faced and the slowdown in the economy. We are proud of our Bank, our staff, and our customers as we all worked to stay safe while at the same time being accessible to customers. By declaring this first-time stock dividend, in addition to the normal cash dividends, it’s just another way to reward our shareholders for their continued support.”

The Board will continue to consider future quarterly cash dividends, as it has in the past, and intends to maintain the current per share cash dividend level going forward. Any future dividend would be payable on all outstanding shares (including those issued as a result of the stock dividend), although the amount and payment of any dividends will be based on earnings of the Company, its financial condition, capital requirements, and other related factors.
