On April 19, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cyclacel Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share on the Company’s 6% Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock (the “Preferred Stock”). The cash dividend will be payable on May 1, 2025, to Preferred Stock stockholders of record as of the close of business on April 29, 2025.
