GBDC
Published: June 04, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Part 1 of this article compares Golub Capital BDC's recent quarterly change in NAV, quarterly and trailing 12-month economic return, NII, and current valuation to 11 BDC peers. Part 1 also performs a comparative analysis of each company's investment portfolio as of 12/31/2024 and 3/31/2025. This includes an updated percentage of investments on non-accrual status. I also provide a list of the other BDC stocks I currently believe are undervalued (a buy recommendation), overvalued (a sell recommendation), and appropriately valued (a hold recommendation).

2 BDCs To Dump Before Rates Fall

ARCC, BBDC, BXSL, GBDC, PNNT, TPVG
Published: June 03, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Recent Fed actions and economic data suggest a material risk of further interest rate cuts in the near to medium term. Lower rates threaten BDC dividend sustainability, even for solid names like ARCC and BXSL, as shown by recent NII declines. In this article, I discuss two high-quality BDCs (not ARCC and BXSL), which investors should consider divesting if they also assume an interest rate cut scenario as a base case.

High-yield, blue-chip stocks are the holy grail of retiring on dividends. I share some of my favorite 7-10% yielding blue chips that look like attractive picks for retirees. I also share some of the risks to keep in mind.

Sentiment: Negative

Big dividends sound great, but how about big losses? Since Q2 2025 began, book values got smacked. Not talking about share prices. You can tell if the share price declined (hopefully). That would be a worthless article. One of these high-yield sectors has been doing much better than the others.

I use YCharts' Value Score and Ben Graham Formula to identify large-cap stocks offering strong value relative to profits, assets, and dividends. Eighteen of twenty-four 'safer' lowest-priced Dividend Dogs of the GVAS are fair-priced and ready to buy for income-focused investors. Top ten GVAS stocks are projected to deliver 17.99% to 68.74% net gains by May 2026, with average risk 29% below the market.

Golub Capital: Another Good Quarter From This 11%-Yielding BDC

GBDC
Published: May 15, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Golub Capital BDC delivered a solid quarter with a 2% total NAV return, trading at an 11% dividend yield and a 6% discount to NAV. The company's portfolio is well-diversified with 368 positions, primarily in floating-rate first-lien loans, focusing on the software and healthcare sectors. Despite a slight NAV decline and net realized losses, GBDC's low-cost fee structure and resilient portfolio have driven strong performance, beating the median BDC by 2.5%.

9-14% Blue-Chip Dividend Yields: 2 To Buy And 1 To Sell

GBDC, MPLX, PAA, PAGP, PDI
Published: May 06, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

I love high-yield blue-chip stocks, as they fit in very well with my opportunistic capital recycling strategy. Want a potentially safe double-digit income? These stocks deliver — one does not. One of these stocks yields nearly 10% and just hiked its payout by 20%.

Market volatility has increased, making it challenging to predict future Treasury rates and impacting the frequency of my article publications. Price-to-book ratios reveal bargains. Preferred shares offer lower risk and high yields; recent trades in DX-C and EFC-B have been profitable.

Golub Capital BDC: Disappointing Performance, Not As Bad As It Seems (Rating Downgrade)

GBDC
Published: March 31, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Due to economic uncertainty and a disappointing quarter, I am downgrading Golub Capital BDC from a buy to a hold. Despite misses in the top and bottom lines, GBDC's credit rating upgrade and higher originations are positive signs for future performance. Management expects improved net investment income from higher originations and restructured borrowers, but economic volatility remains a risk.

Sentiment: Positive

The Large Cap Value and Ben Graham Formula strategies identify undervalued, stable stocks with strong fundamentals and low valuations, ideal for long-term investment. Analysts project significant gains (28.24% to 85.64%) from top-ten GASV Dogs by March 2026, based on dividend yields and target prices. Thirteen of nineteen "safer" GASV Dogs are recommended buys, offering reliable dividends and fair pricing relative to their intrinsic value.

Sentiment: Neutral

A bunch of mortgage REITs were severely overvalued. Now they are less overvalued. But some others are actually bargains. Tons of charts because images are fun. Ellington Financial's higher price-to-book ratio may be due to lower volatility in the total economic return by period. Digital Realty Trust deserves to be mocked. I am reporting for duty!
