Medallion Financial Corp. announced it will repurchase $15 million in trust preferred securities from BIMIZCI Fund LLC at 73.66% of face value, costing about $11.05 million plus accrued distributions. This deal includes a five-year standstill agreement preventing investor campaigns against Medallion and a commitment to sell remaining common shares by the end of 2026. The repurchase will generate a gain for Medallion in Q4 2026 and complements its ongoing capital return program, which has returned approximately $84.7 million to shareholders since 2022 through buybacks and dividends. The company highlights its transformation from a taxi-medallion lender to a diversified specialty finance firm, with taxi-medallion assets now just 0.1% of total assets. The transaction is expected to close within 30 days, subject to customary conditions.
