Other Events.

On February 26, 2026, Lamar Advertising Company (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $1.60 per share payable on March 31, 2026, to holders of record of the Company’s Class A common stock and Class B common stock on March 16, 2026.

Also on February 26, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the extension of the Company’s existing (i) stock repurchase program, which has remaining availability for the repurchase of up to $250 million of its Class A common stock and (ii) debt repurchase program, which provides for the repurchase by Lamar Media Corp., its wholly owned subsidiary, of up to $250 million of Lamar Media Corp.’s outstanding senior notes and other indebtedness outstanding from time to time under Lamar Media Corp.’s credit agreement. The repurchase programs, which were previously set to expire on March 31, 2026, have been extended through September 30, 2027. The repurchase programs may be further extended, suspended or discontinued at any time.

Such repurchases may be made on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. The timing and amount of any repurchases will be determined by the Company’s management based on its evaluation of market conditions and other factors. The Company may also establish 10b5-1 trading plans from time to time that will provide flexibility if and when it buys back securities.

As of the date hereof, no repurchases have been made under the debt repurchase program. The Company previously repurchased $150 million under its stock repurchase program, and increased the overall size of the stock repurchase program to $400 million, of which $250 million remains available for future repurchases.

A copy of the press release relating to the quarterly dividend and the extension of the stock repurchase authorization is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
