SLR Investment Corp. Announces Quarter Ended September 30, 2026 Financial Results

Net Investment Income of $0.33 Per Share for Q3 2026;

Declared Quarterly Distribution of $0.31 Per Share

NEW YORK, Nov. 03, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SLR Investment Corp. (NASDAQ: SLRC) (the “Company”, “SLRC”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) today reported net investment income (“NII”) of $17.8 million, or $0.33 per share, for the third quarter of 2026. On November 3, 2026, the Board declared a quarterly distribution of $0.31 per share payable on December 28, 2026, to holders of record as of December 14, 2026.

As of September 30, 2026, net asset value (“NAV”) was $17.83 per share, compared to $18.00 per share at June 30, 2026.

“We believe our diversified specialty finance portfolio is well suited for the current ‘higher-for-longer’ interest rate environment. It’s comprised of first lien loans predominantly secured by liquid working capital assets governed by borrowing bases that we actively manage,” said Michael Gross, Co-CEO of SLR Investment Corp. “Ninety-five percent of our record $575 million originations were in specialty finance, and we expect that to continue. Importantly, our net investment income of $0.33 per share was flat sequentially and covered our $0.31 quarterly distribution. With over $850 million of capital available to deploy, we are well positioned to support borrowers and sponsors that need liquidity.”

“At September 30th, our watchlist accounts for only 2% of the fair value of our portfolio, below our long-term average of 2.2%. We continue to have high conviction in the stability and credit quality of our portfolio,” said Bruce Spohler, Co-CEO of SLR Investment Corp. “Our software exposure remains under 1% of fair value, and only 2% of our gross income is derived from PIK interest resulting from amendments. Aside from our two investments on non-accrual, our portfolio companies continue to exhibit healthy fundamentals and perform at or above expectations.”

At September 30, 2026: Investment Portfolio fair value: $2.0 billion | Comprehensive Investment Portfolio(1) fair value: $3.4 billion Non-accruals: Two investments representing 1.2% at fair value, 2.9% at cost of Investment Portfolio Net assets: $972.8 million or $17.83 per share Leverage: 1.10x net debt-to-equity
