To support our shareholders and their families who are facing economic hardships during the COVID-19 pandemic, the NANA board of directors voted to declare an emergency advance of a portion of the 2020 regular dividend of $2.50 per share to be distributed on April 22, 2020.

“Part of NANA’s mission is to improve the quality of life for our people by promoting healthy communities,” said Linda Lee, NANA’s board chair. “While we cannot control this virus, we can contribute in ways that seek to ease its financial effects.”

The dividend distribution will be paid through the NRC Shareholder Trust to shareholders in the system as of noon on March 27, 2020, with a record date of April 10, 2020.

“I encourage all of us to look out for one another during this unprecedented time and continue to follow the recommendations and mandates of federal, state and local agencies,” said Wayne Westlake, president and CEO of NANA. “May our Iñupiaq values guide our actions and decisions as we plan for the weeks ahead.”
