Chicago Atlantic BDC: Remains Resilient But Limited Growth Potential (Rating Downgrade)
LIEN offers a high 12.6% yield and unique cannabis industry focus, but faces growth and regulatory risks in the current environment. Dividend coverage has weakened, with net investment income barely covering distributions, raising concerns about sustainability and potential for a cut. Portfolio quality remains solid with no non-accruals and reduced PIK income, but limited growth and high rates constrain NAV expansion.

Chicago Atlantic BDC: Why High Yield Investors Should Consider This 11% Yield
Chicago Atlantic BDC (LIEN) has shown solid growth despite market volatility, driven by their acquisition of Chicago Real Estate Finance's loan portfolio and strong pipeline. The BDC's portfolio is defensively positioned with first-lien loans and minimal non-accruals, offering flexibility outside the cannabis sector and resilience against economic downturns. LIEN's near 10% yield and 15.5% discount to NAV are attractive, but risks include potential recession impacts and uncertainty around cannabis rescheduling.
