CNA FINANCIAL CORP

Cash dividends of $3.84 per share on our common stock, including a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share, were declared and paid in 2025. On February 6, 2026, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.48 per share and a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share, payable March 12, 2026 to stockholders of record on February 23, 2026. The declaration and payment of future dividends to holders of our common stock will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on many factors, including our earnings, financial condition, business needs and regulatory constraints.

Our ability to pay dividends and satisfy our credit obligations is significantly dependent on receipt of dividends from our subsidiaries. The payment of dividends to us by our insurance subsidiaries without prior approval of the insurance department of each subsidiary's domiciliary jurisdiction is limited by formula. Dividends in excess of these amounts are subject to prior approval by the respective state insurance departments.

Further information on our dividends from subsidiaries is provided in Note M to the Consolidated Financial Statements included under Item 8.
