Initially, it amounted to $1.44 billion. The funds were allocated for dividend payments on preferred shares and interest on debt. The minimum reserve goal is to cover at least 12 months of such payments, with a long-term target of 24 months or more.<\/p>\n<p>As of May 31, 2026, the reserve had decreased to $900 million.
