Double Trouble: 2 BDCs Facing Another Yield Cut, Time To Sell? BDCs are exposed to some material headwinds. We can see how already several BDCs have cut their dividends. Theoretically, it might make sense to buy those that have made dividend cuts, which could indicate that the new yields are rather sustainable. seekingalpha.com - 2 weeks ago
Warning To All BDC Investors I am increasingly cautious on BDCs due to rising non-accruals, weaker earnings, and looser underwriting amid intense competition for private credit deals. Elevated interest rates are suppressing BDC valuations and making it harder for borrowers to service debt, leading to fewer quality investment opportunities. Dividend coverage is weakening across many BDCs, with higher non-accruals and PIK income threatening the sustainability of distributions investors rely on. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
BDC Weekly Review: Performance Divergence But No Serious Weakness We take a look at the action in business development companies through the fourth week of May and highlight some of the key themes we are watching. BDC sector pulled back 2% this week, but remains up 2.5% month-to-date; valuations are about 5% below historic averages. Despite headlines of credit stress, BDC portfolios' interest income continues to offset markdowns and non-accruals, supporting solid total NAV returns. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
Fat Dividends Served Reality Check 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. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
Oaktree Specialty Lending: A Contrarian Buy Oaktree Specialty Lending trades at a 16% discount to NAV, presenting a potential rebound opportunity if credit performance improves in 2025. The investment firm reset its dividend in the last quarter, cutting the base by 27% and introducing a variable supplementary dividend tied to earnings strength. High non-accrual rates remain a key risk, with OCSL's portfolio quality needing improvement to support a valuation re-rating. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
BDC Weekly Review: Bimodal Q1 Numbers Weigh On The Sector We take a look at the action in business development companies through the first week of May and highlight some of the key themes we are watching. BDCs fell around 1.5% this week due to a couple of weak Q1 reports, with the sector still below pre-Liberation Day levels. Despite recent dips, historically resilient BDCs are showing strong ROE figures, suggesting selective opportunities for patient investors. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
Oaktree Specialty Lending: A 13.2% Yield You Need To Avoid (Rating Downgrade) Oaktree Specialty Lending's 13.2% dividend yield is risky due to rising non-accruals and a slowing economy, making another dividend cut likely. Despite a recent dividend cut, OCSL's financials continue to decline, with net asset value dropping significantly and non-performing loans increasing. OCSL's balance sheet is in decent shape with low debt-to-equity and strong liquidity, but this doesn't offset the risks from deteriorating fundamentals. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
Oaktree Specialty Lending: Staying Away From This BDC For The Remainder Of 2025 Oaktree Specialty Lending (OCSL) faces vulnerabilities including weak dividend coverage, portfolio concentration, and negative impacts from tariffs. OCSL's portfolio is heavily concentrated in Software & Services, and rising non-accruals indicate worsening borrower performance, exacerbated by high interest rates. Despite trading at a significant discount to NAV, OCSL's declining NAV and increasing non-accruals suggest ongoing financial instability and potential further downside in 2025. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago

My 3 Biggest BDC Investing Mistakes Worth Avoiding I've been tracking major BDCs for over three years, achieving high total returns and dividends, and outperforming the BDC index. My investments in BDCs are motivated by high yield, diversification from traditional dividend picks, and the potential to outperform in an underexplored market. Yet, there have been many bumps in the process, and some of them quite painful. seekingalpha.com - 2 months ago
