Prospect Capital: Lower Dividend Risk (Rating Upgrade) Prospect Capital offers an attractive value proposition due to its massive discount to NAV, but is best suited for investors comfortable with higher volatility. The November 2024 dividend cut has improved dividend coverage and balance sheet quality, making the payout more sustainable despite ongoing NAV concerns. Portfolio quality remains strong with a low non-accrual percentage, and PSEC's first-lien strategy supports its credit profile. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago

The More It Tanks, The More It Stanks High-yield stocks that trade at deep discounts to NAV often attract value-oriented income investors. However, most of the time, these investments are value traps. I share two popular stocks like this whose dividends I think are at risk and will likely deliver disappointing total returns to shareholders moving forward. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
Despite The Attractive Discount, I Wouldn't Consider Prospect Capital (Rating Downgrade) PSEC's fundamentals continue to deteriorate, with persistent NAV erosion and declining net investment income despite a large discount to NAV. Dividend coverage is weakening, and another cut is likely as financials worsen, and lower interest rates loom, increasing risk for income investors. PSEC's inability to issue shares accretively at a discount to NAV limits growth potential, unlike higher-quality BDC peers with consistent NAV growth. seekingalpha.com - 1 month ago
