MIAMI, Nov. 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PennantPark Floating Rate Capital Ltd. (the "Company") (NYSE: PFLT) declares its monthly distribution for November 2025 of $0.1025 per share, payable on December 1, 2025 to stockholders of record as of November 17, 2025.

November's top monthly pay (MoPay) dividend stocks offer high yields, with most generating annual dividends from a $1,000 investment exceeding their share price. Analyst estimates suggest the top ten MoPay equities could deliver 21.58% to 86.54% total returns by November 2026, though risks and volatility remain elevated. Twenty MoPay stocks are identified as "safer" picks, meeting the criteria of positive free cash flow yields and strong dividend coverage, serving as starting points for further research.

PennantPark Floating Rate Capital trades at a steep discount (P/NAV 0.77x) with a 13.7% yield, reflecting sector-wide pressures. PFLT's focus on the core middle market allows for higher spreads and lower risk compared to upper-middle-market BDC peers (ARCC, BXSL). Despite likely dividend cuts, PFLT offers attractive, de-risked income and potential for price recovery as sector sentiment improves.

Thirteen of 35 October Dividend Power Dogs are recommended for their "safer" dividends, with free cash-flow yields exceeding dividend yields, making them ideal buys. The Dividend Power strategy focuses on high earnings yield and high dividend yield, creating a resilient portfolio for both downturns and bull markets. Analysts project significant gains for the top ten DiviPower stocks by October 2026, with potential net gains ranging from 36% to 190.33%.
