Gladstone Capital: Premium Has Come Down But Still Not A Buy
GLAD's valuation has decreased but remains relatively high, with a 17.38% premium to NAV, making it still expensive despite recent price declines. The current dividend yield is 7.9%, but the low coverage rate of 101% raises concerns about its sustainability in a high-interest rate environment. Non-accruals have slightly increased to 7.5% of cost, indicating some portfolio stress, and GLAD underperforms peers with lower non-accrual rates.

Gladstone Capital: What To Look For Ahead Of Earnings
Gladstone Capital's improving internal risk ratings and low PIK income are positives, but rising non-accruals and barely covered dividends pose significant risks. The BDC's portfolio quality has improved, but the weakened US economic outlook and potential global trade war impacts remain concerns. Despite the dividend being covered by net investment income, the low coverage ratio and 18% premium to NAV make GLAD a hold, not a buy.

How To Navigate BDC Investing In Lower Interest Rate Environment
Lower interest rates negatively impact BDCs' net investment income due to the floating rate nature of their loans tied to the Fed Funds rate.
