Invesco Ltd. and MassMutual have announced an agreement for Invesco to repurchase $1 billion of its $4 billion of outstanding Invesco, Ltd Series A Preferred Stock otherwise noncallable until May 2040 at the price and on terms described in the agreement. The all-cash repurchase, which will be funded through debt financing, is expected to close in May 2025. Further, the repurchase agreement between Invesco Ltd. and MassMutual provides for the possibility of future repurchases of the remaining $3 billion of outstanding Preferred Stock in a way that would be beneficial for both parties. The announced repurchase is expected to be earnings accretive to Invesco beginning in the second half of 2025, enabling further deleveraging and improving balance sheet flexibility while retaining the ability to both invest in growth initiatives and return capital to shareholders. Invesco also announced today an increase in its quarterly dividend from $0.205 to $0.210 per common share. MassMutual remains a significant Invesco shareholder with approximately 18.2% ownership of common shares outstanding and is a longstanding strategic partner to Invesco with previous seed and co-investment capital commitments exceeding $3 billion in total and approximately $9 billion of Invesco managed assets sold through MassMutual's broker-dealer, variable annuity and sub-advisory platforms.
