Gladstone Capital: What To Look For Ahead Of Earnings
GLAD
Published: May 07, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Gladstone Capital's improving internal risk ratings and low PIK income are positives, but rising non-accruals and barely covered dividends pose significant risks. The BDC's portfolio quality has improved, but the weakened US economic outlook and potential global trade war impacts remain concerns. Despite the dividend being covered by net investment income, the low coverage ratio and 18% premium to NAV make GLAD a hold, not a buy.

How To Navigate BDC Investing In Lower Interest Rate Environment
FDUS, GLAD, KBDC, MAIN
Published: April 01, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Lower interest rates negatively impact BDCs' net investment income due to the floating rate nature of their loans tied to the Fed Funds rate.

Gladstone Capital: Rising Non-Accruals And Unjustified Premium Valuation (Rating Downgrade)
GLAD
Published: February 14, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

GLAD's current premium to NAV is unjustified due to weakening earnings, increased non-accruals, and poor dividend coverage, leading to a sell rating. Despite GLAD's attractive 7% dividend yield and monthly payouts, the dividend coverage is weak, risking potential cuts if portfolio conditions worsen. GLAD's portfolio is diversified but small, with significant exposure to floating rate investments. This increases the overall vulnerability and impact of underperforming borrowers.
