ORLANDO, Fla. - M-tron Industries, Inc. (NYSE American: MPTI), a producer of electronic components for signal control, has revealed plans to issue a dividend of warrants for purchasing its common stock to current shareholders. The company, which has a history dating back to 1965, is seeking to list these warrants on the NYSE American exchange. With a market capitalization of $111.5 million and an impressive return on equity of 25%, InvestingPro data shows M-tron maintains a strong financial position with more cash than debt on its balance sheet.
Under the proposed dividend, each M-tron common stockholder will receive one warrant for every share they own. Five warrants will entitle the holder to buy one share of common stock at a price of $47.50, representing a premium to the current trading price of $41.47. The warrants can be exercised either on their third-anniversary date or when the company’s 30-day volume weighted average price (VWAP) equals or exceeds $52.00. If the latter condition is met, the exercise period for the warrants will be limited to the following 30 calendar days.

A conference call is scheduled for today to provide an update on the company’s operations and further details about the proposed warrant dividend.
The announcement is part of M-tron’s broader strategy to support its customers throughout the life cycle of its products, which includes design, prototyping, production, and upgrades.
