**Compass Diversified Declares Second Quarter 2025 Distributions on Series A, B and C Preferred Shares**

WESTPORT, Conn., July 2, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Compass Diversified (NYSE: CODI) ("CODI" or the "Company"), an owner of leading middle market businesses, announced today that its Board of Directors (the "Board") has declared a quarterly cash distribution for each of its three preferred share series. This announcement underscores that in the wake of its ongoing investigation of Lugano, the Company's diversified business model supports its continued ability to generate strong cash flow.

The Board declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.453125 per share on the Company's 7.250% Series A Preferred Shares (the "Series A Preferred Shares"). The distribution on the Series A Preferred Shares covers the period from, and including, April 30, 2025, up to, but excluding, July 30, 2025. The distribution for such period is payable on July 30, 2025, to all holders of record of Series A Preferred Shares as of July 15, 2025.

The Board also declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.4921875 per share on the Company's 7.875% Series B Preferred Shares (the "Series B Preferred Shares"). The distribution on the Series B Preferred Shares covers the period from, and including, April 30, 2025, up to, but excluding, July 30, 2025. The distribution for such period is payable on July 30, 2025, to all holders of record of Series A Preferred Shares as of July 15, 2025.

The Board also declared a quarterly cash distribution of $0.4921875 per share on the Company's 7.875% Series C Preferred Shares (the "Series C Preferred Shares"). The distribution on the Series C Preferred Shares covers the period from, and including, April 30, 2025, up to, but excluding, July 30, 2025. The distribution for such period is payable on July 30, 2025, to all holders of record of Series A Preferred Shares as of July 15, 2025.

CODI's preferred cash distributions should generally constitute "qualified dividends" for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent they are paid from "earnings and profits" (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), provided that the requisite holding period is met. To the extent that the amount of cash distributions exceeds earnings and profits, such distribution will first be treated as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of the holder's adjusted tax basis in the shares and thereafter be treated as a capital gain from the sale or exchange of such shares.

**About Compass Diversified**

Since its IPO in 2006, CODI has consistently executed its strategy of owning and managing a diverse set of highly defensible, middle-market businesses across the branded consumer, industrial, healthcare, and critical outsourced services sectors. The Company leverages its permanent capital base, long-term disciplined approach, and actionable expertise to maintain controlling ownership interests in each of its subsidiaries, maximizing its ability to impact long-term cash flow generation and value creation.
