(OTCQB: BABB), the franchisor of Big Apple Bagels and other brands, declared a quarterly distribution of $0.01 per share, payable on July 14, 2025, to shareholders on record as of June 26, 2025. The company boasts an impressive 8.42% dividend yield and has maintained dividend payments for 23 consecutive years, according to InvestingPro data. The company noted that for tax purposes, part of this distribution may be considered a return of capital, with the remainder potentially treated as a dividend. The exact breakdown will be confirmed post the fiscal year ending November 30, 2025, with details provided to shareholders in early 2026.

BAB, Inc. trades on the OTCQB marketplace under the ticker symbol BABB. The company maintains strong operational efficiency with a 67.2% gross profit margin and excellent financial health, as indicated by InvestingPro’s comprehensive analysis.
This distribution strategy may affect shareholders’ tax liabilities, as the portion treated as a return of capital could reduce the cost basis of their investment, while the portion treated as a dividend would be subject to different tax considerations. With a current ratio of 3.3 and more cash than debt on its balance sheet, BAB demonstrates strong financial positioning. InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently trading below its Fair Value. The final tax treatment of these distributions will depend on the company’s earnings and will be formally determined in January 2026.
