What is the Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB) and what does the early renewal mean for shareholders?

The Normal Course Issuer Bid (NCIB) is a program where a company buys back its own shares from the open market. The early renewal means CP is authorized to repurchase up to approximately 5% of its outstanding shares (44,865,624 shares) over the next year, starting February 2, 2026. This often signals management's belief that the stock is undervalued and can be a way to return capital to shareholders and potentially increase earnings per share.

Canadian Pacific Kansas City Ltd. has declared a quarterly dividend of $0.228 per share. This dividend will be paid on April 27, 2026, to shareholders who own the stock at the close of business on March 27, 2026.
