Insights

The Q3 2024 results reveal concerning trends for OXSQ. NAV declined to $2.35 from $2.43, while NII dropped to $0.10 per share from $0.13. Total investment income decreased to $10.3M from $11.4M.

The portfolio shows mixed signals: debt investments yield improved to 14.5% from 13.7%, but CLO equity cash distributions declined to 15.3% from 16.2%. Notably concerning are net realized losses of $12.9M, though partially offset by $5.8M in unrealized appreciation.

The company continues to dilute shareholders through ATM offerings, issuing 5.1M new shares for net proceeds of $14.5M. While this helps liquidity, it puts pressure on per-share metrics. The declared monthly distribution of $0.035 appears sustainable given current NII levels but offers little room for error.

___________

(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.
(8) The following table provides supplemental performance ratios (annualized) measured for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:
