The company's net investment income also fell, amounting to $13.1 million, or $0.36 per share, compared to $16.9 million, or $0.46 per share, in the previous year. The decrease in income was attributed to lower interest income, which dropped from $40.2 million to $34.7 million, primarily due to a decline in benchmark rates and restructurings of certain debt investments.
In terms of profitability, Crescent Capital reported a net decrease in net assets resulting from operations of $(3.2) million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, compared to an increase of $15.0 million in the same quarter of 2025.

The company reported a total of 192 portfolio companies, with 4.8% of its total debt investments on non-accrual status, indicating a slight increase in risk. The company’s debt levels rose, with total liabilities increasing to $922.9 million from $873.8 million at the end of 2025, reflecting a higher reliance on borrowed funds.
Strategically, Crescent Capital has made adjustments to its management fee structure, reducing the base management fee from 1.25% to 1.00% effective April 1, 2026. The company also engaged in stock repurchases, buying back 123,333 shares for $1.67 million during the first half of 2026. Looking ahead, Crescent Capital anticipates continued challenges due to market conditions, including rising interest rates and potential economic downturns, which may impact its investment income and overall financial performance.
