Atrion Corporation Declares Special Cash Dividend of $10.00 Per Share
ALLEN, TX--(Marketwire - Nov 13, 2012) - Atrion Corporation (
Commenting on the dividend action, David A. Battat, President and CEO, stated "This special cash dividend reflects the Company's solid capitalization and its continuing ability to generate strong cash flows from operations. As of September 30, 2012 the Company had no debt and had cash and investments totaling $62.2 million. The special dividend totaling approximately $20.2 million demonstrates the Board's commitment to maximizing return to stockholders and provides a way for our stockholders to realize the benefit of our cash position. After payment of the dividend the Company will continue to have a strong financial position that, along with anticipated future free cash flows and available credit lines, is more than adequate to meet our capital needs for the foreseeable future."
