Third Fiscal Quarter 2024 Results:

Total investment income increased by $1.7 million, or 7.1%, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to the prior quarter ended March 31, 2024, driven by a $2.2 million increase in other income. The increase in other income was driven primarily by a $1.1 million increase in dividend income quarter over quarter and a $0.9 million increase in prepayment fee income quarter over quarter.

Total expenses increased by $76 thousand, or 0.6%, quarter over quarter, primarily due to a $0.5 million increase in the net incentive fee, partially offset by a decrease of $0.2 million in the net base management fee and a decrease of $0.2 million in interest expense on borrowings.

Net investment income for the quarter ended June 30, 2024 was $12.4 million, or $0.57 per share. 

The net increase in net assets resulting from operations was $19.1 million, or $0.88 per share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2024, compared to $23.6 million, or $1.09 per share, for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The current quarter increase in net assets resulting from operations was primarily driven by $3.4 million of net unrealized appreciation recognized during the quarter and $3.3 million of net realized gain recognized during the quarter.

Comments from Gladstone Capital’s President, Bob Marcotte: “Last quarter’s spike in refinancing activities lifted our fee income and resulted in a small decline in our portfolio; however, our core strategy of investing in directly originated investments in growth oriented lower middle market businesses remains intact and we expect the current deal pipeline to support the resumption of our portfolio and earnings growth in the near term.”
