Insights

PFLT reported Q3 NII of $0.25/share, below the $0.31 quarterly distribution, but maintained a robust 10.4% yield on investments.

PennantPark Floating Rate Capital reported Q3 2025 net investment income (NII) of $0.25 per share, falling short of its $0.31 quarterly distribution. However, the company emphasized its Core NII of $0.27 per share, which excludes one-time costs including $2.9 million in credit facility amendment expenses. The company's NAV per share declined 1.0% quarter-over-quarter, reflecting some portfolio depreciation.

PFLT's investment portfolio expanded to $2.4 billion, up from $1.98 billion at fiscal year-end 2024, demonstrating significant growth. The portfolio consists of 99% variable-rate investments, positioning it well in the current interest rate environment. The company maintains a weighted average yield on debt investments of 10.4%, though this represents a decline from 11.5% in the year-ago period, likely due to the general interest rate environment.

Credit quality appears relatively stable with two portfolio companies on non-accrual, representing 1.0% and 0.5% of the overall portfolio on a cost and fair value basis, respectively. This represents a slight increase from 0.4% and 0.2% at fiscal year-end 2024.

The company completed $208.1 million in new investments during the quarter at a 10.1% yield, below the portfolio average. Management noted an "uptick in deal activity" which they believe will lead to increased loan originations in the second half of 2025. Importantly, PFLT announced the formation of a new joint venture with Hamilton Lane focused on middle market senior secured loans, which management expects will drive NII growth.

On the financing front, PFLT completed an amendment to its credit facility in April 2025, reducing pricing by 25 basis points to SOFR+200, extending the maturity to August 2030, and increasing the advance rate to 72.5% from 70.0%. Additionally, its PSSL subsidiary closed a $301 million CLO with a four-year reinvestment period, providing additional investment capacity.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Set forth below are the results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024.

Investment Income

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 investment income was $63.5 million and $192.4 million, respectively, which was attributable to $57.9 million and $175.1 million from first lien secured debt and $5.6 million and $17.3 million from other investments, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, investment income was $48.5 million and $130.8 million, respectively, which was attributable to $42.7 million and $114.9 million from first lien secured debt and $5.8 million and $15.9 million from other investments, respectively. The increase in investment income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily due to the increase in the size of the debt portfolio.

Expenses

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, expenses totaled $38.9 million and $112.8 million, respectively and were comprised of: $22.5 million and $67.4 million of debt related interest and expenses, $5.9 million and $16.8 million of base management fees, $5.4 million and $19.1 million of performance-based incentive fees, $2.0 million and $5.5 million of general and administrative expenses, $0.2 million and $0.7 million of taxes and $2.9 million and $3.3 million in Credit Facility amendment costs.

The increase in expenses for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily due to the increase in interest expense from increased borrowings and an increase in base management fees and incentive fee as a result of the increase in our investment portfolio.

Net Investment Income

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 net investment income totaled $24.6 million or $0.25 per share, and $79.6 million or $0.88 per share, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, net investment income totaled $21.2 million or $0.31 per share, and $59.7 million or $0.95 per share, respectively. The increase in net investment income for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily due to an increase in investment income partially offset by an increase in expenses.

Net Realized Gains or Losses

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 net realized gains (losses) totaled $(14.8) million and $8.4 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, net realized gains (losses) totaled $(0.4) million and $0.6 million, respectively. The change in net realized gains (losses) was primarily due to changes in the market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized.

Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments and Debt

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025 we reported net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments of $9.9 million and $(39.9) million, respectively.

As of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, our net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $(51.3) million and $(11.4) million, respectively. The net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on our investments was primarily due to the operating performance of the portfolio companies within our portfolio, changes in the capital market conditions of our investments and realization of investments.

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, our Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of $(0.1) million and less than $0.1 million, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, our Credit Facility had a net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of less than $0.1 million and less than ($0.1) million, respectively. As of June 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Credit Facility totaled approximately less than $(0.1) million and zero, respectively. The net change in net unrealized (appreciation) or depreciation was primarily due to changes in the capital markets.

Net Change in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations totaled $19.3 million or $0.19 per share and $48.9 million or $0.54 per share, respectively. For the three and nine months ended June 30, 2024, net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations totaled $16.9 million or $0.25 per share and $70.5 million, or $1.12 per share, respectively. The net increase or (decrease) from operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2025, was primarily due to operating performance of our portfolio, changes in capital market conditions of our investments, along with changes in size and cost yield of our debt portfolio and costs of financing.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from cash flows from operations, including income earned, proceeds from investment sales and repayments, and proceeds of securities offerings and debt financings. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives and operations.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the annualized weighted average cost of debt, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment on the Credit Facility, amendment costs and debt issuance costs, was 7.0% and 7.3%, respectively.
