NEW YORK, July 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Carlyle Secured Lending, Inc. (“Carlyle Secured Lending”) (NASDAQ: CGBD) will host a conference call at 11:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) on Friday, August 7, 2026 to announce its financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026. The Company will report its quarterly financial results on Thursday, August 6, 2026.

Carlyle Secured Lending cut its Q2'26 dividend by 12.5% to $0.35/share, aligning with industry peers facing similar pressures. CGBD's portfolio remains high quality, with a non-accrual ratio of just 0.9% (based off of fair value) and 83% of investments in first lien debt. Shares trade at a 34% discount to NAV, a steeper discount than peers, reflecting recent dividend cuts but presenting potential undervaluation.

There is a principle I have followed for 30 years in this business. When the smartest credit team on the planet starts aggressively buying a beaten-down asset class they understand better than anyone alive, you do not sit on your hands and debate whether the timing is perfect.

Carlyle Secured Lending trades near its 52-week low, offering a 12.8% yield and a 32% discount to NAV. CGBD's portfolio is 87% senior secured debt, with low non-accruals and strong sponsor backing supporting credit quality. Recent dividend cuts and lower earnings reflect floating-rate pressure, but management expects earnings improvement in late 2026 and 2027.

Carlyle Secured Lending (CGBD) cut its dividend by 12.5% due to higher losses and tighter coverage, aligning payouts with earnings. CGBD trades at a 27% discount to NAV and yields over 12%, but limited dividend coverage and macro uncertainty warrant caution. Management's aggressive share buybacks and improved non-accruals signal stabilization, yet further financial clarity is needed before turning bullish.
