About CHS Our businesses Stewardship Cooperative value Careers MyCHS News C magazine Global locations Owners and investors Farmer-owned CHS is committed to providing value for all our owners, including 900 member cooperatives that represent 500,000 farmers and ranchers, plus 75,000 individual farmers and ranchers who sell grain directly to CHS. Important notice for CHS owners: The CHS Board has proposed amendments to the CHS Articles of Incorporation and CHS Bylaws that would clean up obsolete language and confirm the ability for owners to vote by mail and electronically (through a website or email). Learn about the proposed amendments. Patronage The cooperative patronage model supports farmers and rural America by returning a proportion of the profits to owners. When a cooperative board calculates patronage, it determines what portion will be retained as member equity in the organization, a key source of capital for cooperative maintenance and growth. CHS has returned $895 million in cash patronage to its owners in the past five years. For equity questions, call 1-800-328-6539 ext. 6124 or email CHS Patron Equities. Patronage Application Redemption Policy Preferred Stock CHS uses proceeds from preferred stock to maintain a strong balance sheet and fuel growth. Five classes of non-voting preferred stock provide capital for CHS investments: 8% Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock (CHSCP) and Class B Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, Series 1 (CHSCO), Series 2 (CHSCN), Series 3 (CHSCM), Series 4 (CHSCL). All CHS classes of preferred stock trade on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Dividends, as declared by the company’s board of directors, are paid on a quarterly basis.
