Black Diamond Group Limited Announces November Dividend and Provides Guidance for Q4 2016

CALGARY, AB--(Marketwired - November 21, 2016) - Black Diamond Group Limited ("Black Diamond" or the "Company") (TSX: BDI), a leading provider of workforce accommodation and modular workspace solutions, today declared a dividend of $0.025 per share to be paid on December 15, 2016 to shareholders of record on November 30, 2016. The ex-dividend date is November 28, 2016. This dividend is an 'eligible dividend' for Canadian income tax purposes.

In spite of a high degree of variability in the current operating environment, Black Diamond is anticipating fourth quarter Adjusted EBITDA of between $8 million to $12 million. This improvement over recent quarters reflects rental revenue growth in BOXX Modular, increased non-rental revenue across all platforms, and a modest seasonality impact.

This EBITDA improvement allows the company to continue to take advantage of our favourable liquidity to fund ongoing growth.
