Insights

Oxford Square Capital Corp.'s Q2 2024 results show mixed signals. The NAV per share slightly increased to $2.43 from $2.42 in Q1. Net investment income (NII) rose to $7.7 million ($0.13 per share) from $6.5 million ($0.11 per share) in Q1, indicating improved profitability. However, the company recorded significant net realized losses of $30.4 million, largely offset by net unrealized appreciation of $28.0 million.

The weighted average yield of debt investments slightly decreased to 13.7% from 13.9%, while the cash distribution yield of CLO equity investments improved to 16.2% from 13.7%. This suggests a shift in the portfolio's yield profile. The company's investment activity shows net growth, with $28.8 million in new investments versus $19.2 million in repayments.

The declaration of consistent monthly distributions of $0.035 per share for Q4 2024 provides some stability for income-focused investors. However, the total return based on market value was -4.06% for the quarter, indicating negative market sentiment despite the improved NAV and NII.

Oxford Square's Q2 results present a complex picture for investors. The slight NAV increase and improved NII are positive signs, but the significant realized losses raise concerns about portfolio quality. The net unrealized appreciation largely offsetting these losses suggests potential recovery, but it's important to monitor if this materializes in future quarters.

The company's ability to raise $8.9 million through an at-the-market offering demonstrates access to capital, but also indicates potential dilution for existing shareholders. The weighted average credit rating improvement from 2.9 to 2.7 (based on principal amount) is a positive trend, albeit slight.

Investors should note the presence of non-accrual investments, totaling $3 million in fair value. While this represents a small portion of the portfolio, it's a red flag for potential future write-downs. The decrease in total expenses is positive for profitability, but the elimination of incentive fees might indicate lower performance relative to benchmarks.

Overall, while there are some improvements, the mixed results and market underperformance suggest caution. Income-focused investors may appreciate the stable distributions, but growth investors might find the current risk-reward profile less attractive.

___________

(1)      Represents per share net investment income for the period, based upon weighted average shares outstanding.
(2)      Net realized and unrealized gains/(losses) include rounding adjustments to reconcile change in net asset value per share.
(3)      Management monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a tax return of capital may occur for the year. To the extent the Company’s taxable earnings fall below the total amount of the Company’s distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to the Company’s stockholders. The ultimate tax character of the Company’s earnings cannot be determined until tax returns are prepared after the end of the fiscal year. The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates (based on an average of the reported tax character historically) and are not being provided for U.S. tax reporting purposes.
(4)      Total return based on market value equals the increase or decrease of ending market value over beginning market value, plus distributions, divided by the beginning market value, assuming distribution reinvestment prices obtained under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, excluding any discounts. Total return is not annualized.
(5)      Total return based on net asset value equals the increase or decrease of ending net asset value over beginning net asset value, plus distributions, divided by the beginning net asset value. Total return is not annualized.
(6)      Annualized.
(7)      Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of the year-to-date investment sales and debt repayments or year-to-date investment purchases over the average of the total investments at fair value.
