BXSL Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Blackstone Secured Lending Fund demonstrated a significant increase in total investment income, rising by $14 million or 4.7% year-over-year, primarily attributed to growth in interest income from a robust portfolio. During the third quarter, the fund achieved remarkable portfolio activity, with total fundings escalating by approximately 90% quarter-over-quarter and net originations increasing by 65%, predominantly composed of first lien senior secured loans. Additionally, the average dividend coverage has improved notably from 79% in the first quarter of 2022 to a quarterly average of 114% for 2024, reflecting enhanced earnings growth and financial stability.
Bears say
The Blackstone Secured Lending Fund reported a decrease in net asset value (NAV) per share to $27.15, which reflects net realized and unrealized losses impacting the overall financial performance. Predictions indicate a significant compression in the portfolio's weighted-average yield over the next five quarters from approximately 10.3% to 9.1%, subsequently contributing to a decline in net investment income (NII) per share. Additionally, the potential inability to access capital markets may hinder the company’s ability to support its portfolio companies, leading to further pressure on earnings, dividend distributions, and the stock's overall performance.
