HOUSTON, Feb. 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- American National Group Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: ANG PRA) today announced that the Company has completed the previously announced redemption (the “Redemption”) of all the 16,000 outstanding shares of its 5.95% Fixed-Rate Reset Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series A (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) and the corresponding 16,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/1,000th interest in one share of Series A Preferred Stock (the “Depositary Shares”). The redemption price for the Depositary Shares was $25.00 per Depositary Share (equivalent to $25,000 per share of Series A Preferred Stock) plus an amount equal to any declared but unpaid dividends and the portion of the quarterly dividend attributable to 1/1,000th of a share of Series A Preferred Stock to the then-current dividend period that has not been declared and paid to, but excluding, the redemption date (which was February 24, 2025) (the “Redemption Date”, and such redemption price, the “Redemption Price”). The Company funded the Redemption Price with the net proceeds from its previously announced sale of 12,000,000 depositary shares, each representing a 1/1,000th interest in a share of the Company’s Fixed-Rate Non-Cumulative Preferred Stock, Series D, together with cash on hand.

None of the Series A Preferred Stock or Depositary Shares remain outstanding, and all rights with respect to such stock or depositary shares have ceased and terminated except only the right of the holders of the Depositary Shares to receive the Redemption Price, without interest. Investors in the Depositary Shares should contact the bank or broker through which they held a beneficial interest in the Depositary Shares for information about obtaining the Redemption Price for the Depositary Shares in which they had a beneficial interest.

In connection with the Redemption, the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) has suspended trading of the Depositary Shares effective prior to the opening of trading on the Redemption Date. NYSE has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a notification of removal from listing and registration on Form 25 to effect the delisting of all of the Depositary Shares from NYSE. In addition, the Company intends to file a certification on Form 15 with the SEC requesting the termination of registration of all of the Depositary Shares. Deregistration of the Depositary Shares is expected to become effective 90 days after the Form 15 is filed.
