The company's total investment income decreased to $49.3 million from $53.2 million, primarily due to lower index rates affecting interest income.

In terms of asset management, SLR Investment Corp. reported total assets of $2.54 billion as of March 31, 2026, a decrease from $2.57 billion at the end of 2025. The company's net assets also fell to $990.8 million from $996.0 million, resulting in a net asset value per share of $18.16, down from $18.26. The decline in net assets was attributed to distributions to stockholders totaling $22.4 million, which included $17.9 million from net investment income and $4.5 million from return of capital.
Operationally, SLR Investment Corp. invested approximately $118.7 million across 33 portfolio companies during the quarter, a decrease from $193.5 million across 30 companies in the same quarter of 2025. The company also reported investment sales and prepayments totaling $138 million, compared to $197 million in the previous year. As of March 31, 2026, the portfolio consisted of 99 companies, with a significant portion of investments in cash flow senior secured loans and asset-based senior secured loans.
Looking ahead, SLR Investment Corp. has increased its revolving credit commitments by $25 million, bringing total commitments to $720 million.
