Insights

The 2024 tax reporting information from Cousins Properties reveals a stable dividend structure with quarterly payments of $0.32 per share, totaling $1.28 annually. Based on the current share price, this represents an annual dividend yield of approximately 6.5%.

The dividend composition is particularly noteworthy: 78.7% ($0.251855 per quarter) consists of ordinary dividends, while 21.3% ($0.068145 per quarter) represents nondividend distributions. This structure has important tax implications:

  • The ordinary dividend portion is treated as qualified REIT dividends under Section 199A, potentially allowing eligible taxpayers to deduct up to 20% of this income on their tax returns.
  • The nondividend distribution portion is treated as a return of capital, which reduces the shareholder's cost basis rather than being taxed as current income. This tax-advantaged treatment can be beneficial for long-term investors.

For tax-sensitive investors, the high proportion of qualified REIT dividends is advantageous, as it maximizes the potential tax benefits under Section 199A. The consistent quarterly distribution pattern also suggests strong cash flow management and commitment to shareholder returns, though investors should note that future distributions may vary based on business performance and market conditions.
