Strategic Initiatives
Growth programs, investments, and their expected impact
Prioritizing the allocation of capital toward stock repurchases rather than deploying capital into new investment commitments, driven by the stock's significant discount to Net Asset Value (NAV).
Expected impact: Generated Net Asset Value (NAV) per share accretion by purchasing shares at a discount (weighted average price of $10.73 per share for 7.08 million shares in Q1 2026, and $11.58 per share for 2.76 million shares in April 2026).
De-emphasizing new investment commitments and utilizing portfolio prepayments to reduce net leverage back toward target ranges.
Expected impact: Aims to lower net leverage from the elevated 1.55x level recorded at the end of Q1 2026. The company received over $100 million in net repayments post-quarter end to support this deleveraging.
Systematically reducing exposure to Merx Aviation Finance, LLC and redeploying proceeds into core first-lien middle-market senior secured loans.
Expected impact: Reduces non-core aviation leasing exposure (down to 2.7% of the portfolio at fair value as of March 31, 2026) and de-risks the overall investment portfolio.
