Financial and Operating Highlights for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2020⁽¹⁾

Commenting on the quarter, CEO and Chairman, Michael C.

With this approval, FSKR becomes one of the most well positioned BDCs in the industry with approximately $1.6 billion of committed growth capital. In addition, our third quarter dividend of $0.55 per share equates to an annualized yield of 9.1% on our net asset value per share and is reflective of our view toward future growth."
