Gladstone Investment Corporation is a publicly traded business development company that focuses on making secured debt and equity investments in lower middle market businesses in the United States, particularly during acquisitions, changes in control, and recapitalizations.

In its latest earnings report for the second quarter ending September 30, 2025, Gladstone Investment Corporation announced a net increase in net assets resulting from operations, with significant unrealized appreciation offsetting realized losses.

Key financial metrics revealed a total investment income of $25.3 million, marking a 7.4% increase from the previous quarter. However, net investment income decreased by 52.9% to $4.3 million due to higher expenses, including capital gains-based incentive fees. The company reported a net realized loss of $29.9 million, primarily due to restructuring activities, but this was counterbalanced by a substantial net unrealized appreciation of $54.4 million. Additionally, the company raised approximately $31.1 million through its ATM program.

Gladstone’s net asset value per common share increased to $13.53 from $12.99, reflecting the positive impact of unrealized gains and strategic equity offerings. Despite the realized losses, the company’s overall financial position improved, with total investments at fair value rising to $1.13 billion.

Looking ahead, Gladstone Investment Corporation remains focused on its strategy of investing in lower middle market businesses, with management expressing confidence in its ability to navigate market conditions and continue delivering value to shareholders.
