Prospect Capital Corporation (PSEC) said preliminary net investment income for the three months ended September 30, 2026 was approximately $76 million, down from $77.69 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2026.

The BDC’s independent registered public accounting firm had not audited, reviewed, examined, compiled, or applied agreed-upon procedures to the figures, which were estimated as of October 27, 2026 and remain subject to closing, final adjustments and valuation. The company said actual results may differ materially from the preliminary data.

Total assets were preliminarily estimated at approximately $6.0 billion as of September 30, 2026, versus $6.45 billion as of June 30, 2026. Total principal amount of debt was preliminarily estimated at approximately $1.5 billion, with total principal amount of debt divided by total assets approximately 25% as of September 30, 2026.

Investments on non-accrual status were preliminarily estimated at approximately 0.2% of the total investment portfolio at fair market value and approximately 1.8% of the total investment portfolio at cost as of September 30, 2026.
