Highlights

• Corby raised its quarterly Dividend to C$0.25 in August, paying it on 25 September to holders of record.

• Four payments totalling C$0.96 imply a trailing Yield of 6.03% on the C$15.91 close of 10 November.

• Fiscal 2026 Revenue climbed 10% to C$271.6 million, while adjusted EBITDA advanced 5% to C$67.5 million.

• The company agreed to sell its Lamb's rum Brand and extended its Hiram Walker production agreements.

Spirits, wines and a growing shelf of ready-to-drink cocktails sold across Canada sit behind Corby Spirit and Wine Limited (TSX:CSW.A), whose Class A shares now carry a quarterly dividend of C$0.25. The board lifted the rate from C$0.24 alongside record fiscal 2026 results in late August, and the first cheque at the new level went out on 25 September.

At the 10 November close of C$15.91, the four payments with ex-dates over the past twelve months, worth C$0.96 in all, translate into a trailing yield of 6.03%. Annualising the current C$0.25 gives C$1.00 and an indicated yield of 6.29%.

Two increases in a year

The trailing total shows a staircase rather than a flat line. Holders received C$0.23 with an ex-date of 28 November 2025, C$0.24 in late February and again in late May, and C$0.25 with an ex-date of 11 September 2026.

That gap between the trailing and the indicated figure exists only because the payout kept rising during the period; on a flat dividend the two would match. No special dividends or return-of-capital payments were identified across the twelve months.

Record sales, slimmer brand list

For the year to 30 June 2026, revenue rose 10% to C$271.6 million, helped by 11% organic growth. Adjusted net Earnings increased 15% to C$35.1 million and adjusted EBITDA reached C$67.5 million. Management has pointed to ready-to-drink cocktails as a growth driver.

The portfolio is also being pruned. In August Corby agreed to sell the Lamb's rum brand, a deal reported at C$39.2 million, after earlier divesting certain non-core brands from its ready-to-drink business.

The Pernod Ricard and Hiram Walker ties

Alongside the increase, Corby announced that its agreement to represent Pernod Ricard brands in Canada had been renewed, together with changes to its board. At the end of September it followed up by extending its production and administrative services agreements with Hiram Walker & Sons.

The company describes itself as a manufacturer, marketer and importer of spirits, wines and ready-to-drink cocktails. Both the representation renewal and the Hiram Walker extension were announced within five weeks of each other, closing out a busy late summer for the business.

What has not yet been confirmed

Corby has customarily declared its next dividend with first-quarter results in November; a year ago the C$0.23 instalment carried a late-November ex-date. No first-quarter fiscal 2027 declaration had been verified at the time of writing, so the C$0.25 rate is the latest confirmed figure. A Payout Ratio was not available from the material reviewed.

The shares sat at C$15.12 on 28 September and have since firmed, which has trimmed the yield even as the payout grew. Inclusion in the SmallCap benchmark rests on index-fund holdings dated 25 September 2026.
