Monroe Capital Corporation is a publicly-traded specialty finance company that primarily invests in senior, unitranche, and junior secured debt, with a focus on middle-market companies. The company aims to maximize total return for its stockholders through current income and capital appreciation, managed by its investment adviser, Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC.
In its first quarter of 2025, Monroe Capital Corporation reported a net investment income of $4.1 million, or $0.19 per share, and an adjusted net investment income of $4.2 million, also $0.19 per share. The company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.25 per share, reflecting an annualized dividend yield of approximately 14.3%. Despite a decrease in net asset value to $186.9 million, or $8.63 per share, the company maintained a strong dividend payout supported by accumulated spillover income.
Key financial metrics for the quarter showed a decline in net investment income from $6.0 million in the previous quarter, primarily due to lower effective yields and decreased average invested assets. The company’s debt-to-equity leverage improved slightly to 1.45 times, down from 1.53 times in the previous quarter, as a result of paydowns on its revolving credit facility. The portfolio saw a reduction in the number of investments and a slight decline in weighted average yields.
Looking ahead, Monroe Capital Corporation remains focused on asset quality and long-term portfolio performance amidst changing market conditions. The management is committed to managing its investment portfolio prudently and selectively redeploying capital from future repayments to sustain its financial health and shareholder returns.
