Prospect Capital Upsizes Preferred Stock Offering to $1.8B With 7.28% Dividend

Prospect Capital Corporation (NASDAQ:PSEC) ("Prospect", "our", or "we") announced today an upsize to Prospect's preferred stock offering (the "Preferred Stock" or the "Offering") with Preferred Capital Securities ("PCS"). The Offering has seen strong demand from the private wealth, institutional, and Registered Investment Advisor channels, with $1.8 billion in aggregate liquidation preference issuances since the initial closing in the quarter ending December 31, 2020.

"Prospect's non-traded preferred stock offers investors recurring cash income with a stable stated value, ongoing liquidity, management alignment, leverage caps, and over $3.7 billion of junior common equity credit support," said Grier Eliasek, President of Prospect. "Prospect is the number one market share issuer of non-traded preferred stock in 2023 and 2024 year-to-date, with each of institutional, registered investment advisor, wirehouse, independent private wealth, and international investor channels having invested in Prospect's preferred stock. With interest rates declining, we believe our A4/M4 preferred stock series, with a current 7.28% annualized floating rate dividend structure and 6.50% dividend rate floor, offers an attractive option for income-oriented investors."

PCS is a securities broker dealer and the dealer manager for the ongoing offering of the Series A4 and M4 Preferred Stock. PCS has raised $5.0 billion of capital since its formation in 2011.
