Rhea-AI Filing Summary

FS KKR Capital Corp. reported fourth quarter and full-year 2025 results and declared a first quarter 2026 cash distribution of $0.48 per share, split into a $0.45 base and $0.03 supplemental payment, payable on or about April 2, 2026 to stockholders of record on March 18, 2026.

For 2025, total investment income was $1,519 million and net investment income was $654 million, or $2.34 per share. Significant realized and unrealized losses of $624 million, or $2.30 per share, reduced overall profitability, leading to a net increase in net assets from operations of $11 million, or $0.04 per share.

Net asset value per share decreased from $23.64 at December 31, 2024 to $20.89 at December 31, 2025. Management highlighted specific challenges in a few investments that affected results, while emphasizing a continued focus on first lien senior secured originations and portfolio diversification.

Positive

  • None.

Negative

  • Net asset value and earnings pressure: 2025 net realized and unrealized losses of $624 million, or $2.30 per share, drove a decline in net asset value per share from $23.64 to $20.89 and left only a $0.04 per share net increase in net assets from operations.

Insights

FSK’s 2025 core income remained solid, but credit losses drove NAV and earnings pressure.

FS KKR Capital Corp. generated 2025 net investment income of $654 million, or $2.34 per share, supported by $1,519 million of total investment income. This indicates the portfolio continued to produce meaningful cash flow despite a more challenging credit environment.

However, total net realized and unrealized losses of $624 million, or $2.30 per share, sharply reduced overall profitability and contributed to net asset value falling from $23.64 to $20.89 per share as of December 31, 2025. Management cited specific underperforming investments as a key driver.

The board declared a first quarter 2026 distribution of $0.48 per share, while non-accrual investments rose to 3.4% of the portfolio by fair value. Future company disclosures will show how efforts to stabilize challenged positions and focus on first lien senior secured originations affect credit performance and NAV.

Certain Information About Distributions

 

The determination of the tax attributes of FSK’s distributions is made annually as of the end of its fiscal year based upon its taxable income and distributions paid, in each case, for the full year.

The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

 

The timing and amount of any future distributions on FSK’s shares of common stock are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of its board of directors. There can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any such future distributions.

 

FSK may fund its distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds legally available to it, including net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, dividends or other distributions paid to it on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies, proceeds from the sale of shares of FSK’s common stock and borrowings. FSK has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. There can be no assurance that FSK will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.

1)Per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares of FSK’s common stock outstanding during the applicable period. Per share numbers may not sum due to rounding.

2)Adjusted net investment income is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net investment income is presented for all periods as GAAP net investment income excluding (i) the accrual for the capital gains incentive fee for realized and unrealized gains; (ii) excise taxes (iii) the impact of accretion resulting from merger accounting; and (iv) certain non-recurring operating expenses that are one-time in nature and are not representative of ongoing operating expenses incurred during FSK’s normal course of business. FSK uses this non-GAAP financial measure internally in analyzing financial results and believes that the use of this non-GAAP financial measure is useful to investors as an additional tool to evaluate ongoing results and trends and in comparing its financial results with other business development companies. Adjusted net realized and unrealized gain is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted net realized and unrealized gain is presented for all periods as GAAP realized and unrealized gains to exclude the impact of the merger accounting. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP net investment income to adjusted net investment income and GAAP net realized and unrealized gain to adjusted net realized and unrealized gain can be found above.

3)Net debt to equity ratio is debt outstanding, net of cash and foreign currency and net payable/receivable for investments purchased/sold and repaid, divided by net assets.

8)Total AUM estimated as of September 30, 2025. References to “assets under management” or “AUM” represent the assets managed by Future Standard or its strategic partners as to which Future Standard is entitled to receive a fee or carried interest (either currently or upon deployment of capital) and general partner capital. Future Standard calculates the amount of AUM as of any date as the sum of: (i) the fair value of the investments of Future Standards’ investment funds; (ii) uncalled investor capital commitments to these funds, including uncalled investor capital commitments from which Future Standard is currently not earning management fees or carried interest; (iii) the value of outstanding CLOs (excluding CLOs wholly-owned by Future Standard); (iv) the fair value of FS KKR Capital Corp. joint venture (JV) assets and (v) the fair value of other assets managed by Future Standard. Future Standards' calculation of AUM may differ from the calculations of other asset managers and, as a result, Future Standards’ measurements of its AUM may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other asset managers. Future Standards’ definition of AUM is not based on any definition of AUM that may be set forth in agreements governing the investment funds, vehicles or accounts that it manages and is not calculated pursuant to any regulatory definitions.
