The company, currently trading at $14 with a market cap of $717 million, offers an attractive 10% dividend yield. According to InvestingPro, the stock is trading near its 52-week low, with several additional insights available to subscribers.
The price target reduction primarily stems from a downward revision in the target multiple to 1.04x the firm’s 2025 NAV per share estimate of $15.41, compared to the previous multiple of 1.16x on a NAV per share estimate of $15.46.
RBC Capital also revised its 2025 adjusted net investment income (NII) per share estimate to $1.44 from $1.47, and its 2026 adjusted NII per share estimate to $1.43 from $1.54.
The firm cited an updated interest rate outlook as a key factor behind the revisions, with the new forecast incorporating Federal Reserve-driven rate reductions mainly expected in 2026.
Despite the price target cut, RBC Capital maintained its positive stance on MSC Income Fund, highlighting the company’s portfolio that is "relatively differentiated from BDC peers" and noting its "potential for NAV appreciation through its equity investments."
