Estate Stock Redemptions – Next Review in April

Mar 20, 2026


By Sheridan Gottsponer, GCC Controller
 
At GCC, we’re committed to making the estate stock redemption process as smooth as possible. Our board reviews redemptions twice a year, in April and October, ensuring estates have a clear path forward.

If you're handling an estate, we offer two options:
  • Redeem the stock at par value, with payments made to the authorized administrator of heirs (please note, payments begin at least eight months after the date of death).
  • Transfer the stock to heirs based on the percentages outlined in the will or court documents, with the original issue date maintained. 
To be included in the upcoming April review, applications must be submitted by April 10, 2026.
 
If you have any questions or need assistance, we’re here to help!

Planting a crop isn’t as simple as dropping seeds in the ground and hoping for rain. For corn to reach its full potential, conditions have to be almost Goldilocks perfect—soil temperature, planting depth, moisture, nutrients, seed protection, growth products, and weed control all have to be just right and timed carefully. Miss the mark on any one of those, and yields can suffer before the plant ever breaks the soil. That challenge is made even tougher by today’s high input costs, where every decision is a financial gamble and farmers are trusting that Mother Nature will cooperate months down the road. That’s where GCC and our experienced agronomists come in—working alongside farmers to help plan, manage, and fine tune their operations so they’re set up for the best possible outcome. Farming isn’t something you can casually try; it takes precision, expertise, and teamwork, which is why planting season can be one of the most stressful—and most important—times of the year.
