It is very likely that for most BDCs, the earnings have peaked and the direction of travel is unfavorable. There are both structural and transitory headwinds that put a pressure on earnings, rendering the dividend coverage levels potentially unsustainable. In this article, I share three pillars that have to be in place in BDC dividend investor portfolio to mitigate the risk of experiencing a cut in their income streams.

3 Pillars To Minimize BDC Dividend Cut Risk In Your Portfolio

Gladstone Investment is a rather unique BDC with a focus on buy-outs, providing both debt and equity financing, leading to higher potential returns but with greater risk. Recent earnings disappointed, causing a share price drop, but this presents a potential buying opportunity for long-term investors comfortable with volatility. Current valuation and yield are more attractive after the price drop, making GAIN a more attractive potential opportunity for income-focused, long-term investors.

Gladstone Investment: Valuation Becomes Attractive Again, Long-Term Income Opportunity

MCLEAN, VA / ACCESSWIRE / August 22, 2024 / Gladstone Investment Corporation (Nasdaq:GAIN) (the "Company") announced that Katharine Cornell Gorka has been elected to the 2027 class of Directors for the Company, effective August 22, 2024. Ms. Gorka, 64, is the President of Threat Knowledge Group, which provides training and expertise on threats to U.S. national security, and also serves as the chair of the Fairfax County Republican Party.

Gladstone Investment is a BDC focusing on lower middle market US entities with EBITDA of $4m to $15m, with a stock trading at a 2.5% premium to NAV. GAIN's portfolio is oriented around floating-rated debt investments, while its debt structure is mostly fixed-rated, which increases the interest-rate related risk. GAIN's non-accruals have increased significantly and the share of first lien loans is lower than in the case of some more defensive and higher-quality BDCs.

The latest CPI report suggests a lower chance of interest rate cuts, which is positive for the Business Development Company (BDC) sector. Gladstone Investment is likely to benefit from a higher interest rate due to investment income growth in this environment as their portfolio contains floating rate debt investments. The current dividend yield is 6.8% and there's continued opportunity for additional supplemental distributions in this environment.
