Alert: Claims Focus on Alleged Misrepresentations About Non-Accrual Portfolio Management That Cost FSK Investors $880 Million in Fair Value Losses Across Two Corrective Disclosures
NEW YORK, May 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Levi & Korsinsky, LLP reminds purchasers of FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK) securities of a pending securities class action.
THE CASE: A class action seeks to recover damages for investors who purchased FSK securities between May 8, 2024 and February 25, 2026.
YOUR OPTIONS: You may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out-of-pocket fees. See if you can recover losses or contact Joseph E. Levi, Esq. at [email protected] or (212) 363-7500.
FSK shares fell $2.03 per share, or 15.24%, closing at $11.29 on February 26, 2026, after the Company revealed its non-accrual rate had climbed above the long-term BDC industry average. Investors have until July 6, 2026 to seek lead plaintiff status.
The Alleged Non-Accrual Acceleration From 1.7% to 3.4% at Fair Value
A business development company cannot sustain its distribution strategy or maintain its debt-to-equity compliance when a growing share of its loan portfolio stops generating income. For FS KKR Capital, the complaint chronicles a dramatic reversal in the credit health of its investment book.
As alleged in the filing, the Company told investors quarter after quarter that its workout team was making "significant progress restructuring certain non-accruing investments." Non-accruals at fair value had reportedly declined from 5.5% in December 2023 to just 1.7% by September 2024. The lawsuit contends this progress narrative masked deepening problems in legacy holdings that management knew or should have known were deteriorating.
By June 2025, non-accruals at fair value had nearly doubled to 3.0%. By December 2025, they reached 3.4% at fair value and 5.5% at amortized cost, a level the Company's own Chief Investment Officer was forced to acknowledge exceeded the long-term BDC industry average of approximately 3.8% at cost.
Legacy Portfolio Management and the Workout Team's Alleged Failures
The action claims FS KKR's reported success in restructuring troubled credits was overstated. Specifically, the complaint identifies multiple portfolio companies — including Production Resource Group, 48forty, Kellermeyer Bergensons Services, Worldwise, Medallia, and Cubic Corp — whose deterioration drove hundreds of millions in realized and unrealized losses:
- Production Resource Group, 48forty, Kellermeyer Bergensons Services, and Worldwise were identified during the August 2025 earnings disclosure, when fair value fell $474 million in a single quarter
- Medallia and Cubic Corp emerged as additional problem credits in the February 2026 disclosure, which revealed another $406 million fair value decline
- The Company acknowledged that these identified companies represented only 50% of total net realized and unrealized losses, suggesting broader portfolio weakness
- Non-accrual rates at amortized cost surged from 3.5% in Q1 2025 to 5.5% by year-end, a 57% increase in three quarters

Alleged Non-Accrual Impact by the Numbers
The financial consequences of the alleged credit deterioration were severe. Net asset value per share eroded from $24.32 as of March 31, 2024 (the quarter in which the Class Period began) to $20.89 by December 2025, a cumulative decline of $3.43 per share, or 14.1%. Full year 2024 adjusted net realized and unrealized losses widened to negative $0.72 per share compared to negative $0.56 the prior year. The total fair value of investments contracted from approximately $14.2 billion to $13.0 billion.
The complaint asserts these losses were foreseeable because the underlying credit deterioration was occurring while management publicly assured investors the workout process was succeeding.
"The complaint raises serious questions about whether investors received accurate information regarding the trajectory of FS KKR's non-accrual portfolio and the effectiveness of its restructuring efforts." -- Joseph E. Levi, Esq.

Q: What specific misstatements does the FSK lawsuit allege?
