CHICAGO - Monroe Capital Corporation (NASDAQ: MRCC), currently offering a substantial 15.72% dividend yield, has announced a second quarter distribution of $0.25 per share, set to be paid on June 30, 2025, to shareholders of record as of June 16, 2025. According to InvestingPro, the company has maintained consistent dividend payments for 14 consecutive years. The company, which specializes in private credit markets, has a dividend reinvestment plan that allows distributions to be automatically reinvested in additional shares unless shareholders opt for cash prior to the record date.
The distribution’s tax details will be provided to shareholders on Form 1099 after the year’s end and included in the company’s periodic report to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Monroe Capital Corporation focuses on investments in middle-market companies, aiming to maximize total returns to stockholders through current income and capital appreciation.
Managed by Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC, the company is part of a larger asset management firm, Monroe Capital LLC, which has been recognized with several industry awards for its performance in private debt and direct lending. The firm operates across the United States, Asia, and Australia, offering a range of investment products to institutional and high net worth investors.
The announcement is based on a press release statement and does not include any forward-looking statements or assurances of future performance, as actual results may vary materially. Monroe Capital Corporation does not undertake any obligation to update statements made in the press release.
In other recent news, Monroe Capital Corporation reported its Q1 2025 earnings, which fell short of expectations. The company announced an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.19, missing the projected $0.273, and revenue of $11.64 million, below the forecast of $13.88 million. These results have contributed to investor concerns, as the company’s total investment portfolio also decreased to $430.6 million from the previous quarter. Despite these challenges, Monroe Capital declared a $0.25 per share dividend, maintaining a 14.3% annualized yield, supported by accumulated spillover income. The company continues to focus on strategic partnerships, such as its recent collaboration with the Wendell Group, to create shareholder value. Additionally, Monroe Capital’s executives emphasized their commitment to maintaining dividend levels despite lower net investment income. The firm also highlighted its strategy of focusing on asset quality and conservative portfolio management in a volatile market environment.
