The Curious Case Of Liberty Latin America's Big Special Dividend
Liberty Latin America issued a special dividend in the form of preferred stock. The event led to significant trading turmoil. The new preferred shares, with a $25 liquidation value and 9% yield, offer a tangible return next to waiting for common share appreciation. LILA remains a long-term telco play, trading at an attractive EV/EBITDA and supported by ongoing buybacks and strategic partnerships like Starlink.
