Credit Snapshot

How the market and the balance sheet read OXSQ as a credit: NAV per share is the Q2 FY2026 book value ($1.36) from its SEC quarterly filing — for a BDC, book value is NAV. Fair values underneath are the manager’s own estimates. Price as of 2026-08-26.

MetricValueWhat healthy looks like
Price-to-NAV1.01x (par)Quality BDCs tend to trade near NAV; a deep discount often signals credit concern — or opportunity to investigate.
Dividend Coverage (GAAP NII)0.72x GAAP NII ÷ FY2025 distributionsAbove 1.0x, the year’s distributions were earned by investment income; below 1.0x they exceeded it — watch for a cut or return-of-capital funding. GAAP NII, not the manager’s adjusted “core NII”.
NII Return on Equity15.5% GAAP NII on FY2025 FY-end NAVWhat the portfolio EARNED on book value, before mark swings — steadier than mark-driven ROE. BDCs typically land high single digits to low teens; internally managed books keep more of it.
NAV Total Return-8.7% FY2025: ΔNAV/share + distributions 3-yr ≈+4.6%/yr compoundNAV change plus distributions, per share — what the book earned independent of market sentiment. Sustained positive NAV total return means the credit book is creating value, not just distributing it back.
Top-5 Borrower Concentration52% of portfolio FV ≈ 271% of Q2 FY2026 NAV largest: s - United States (20.9% of FV)Measured against NAV, not just portfolio value: leverage means one borrower’s writedown hits book value harder than its portfolio share suggests. Diversified BDCs typically keep any single name to a low single-digit share of the portfolio.
PIK Income Share1.4% of debt FV carries a PIK componentInterest paid “in kind” adds to the loan instead of paying cash; a rising PIK share is the classic early sign of borrower stress.
Non-Accrualsnot yet parsed1–3% of debt fair value is normal; 5%+ is a warning sign. We don’t parse this yet — check the latest 10-Q.
Fee Structure — manager economics, from the same annual filing
Base Management Fee$4.2M ≈1.36% of FY2025 FY-end total assets, our calculation — contractual fees accrue on average gross assets as filed, gross of any fee waiversExternal BDC base fees typically run 1.0–1.75% of assets — charged on ASSETS, not equity, so leverage raises the fee bill on the same NAV.
Incentive Fee$3.7M ≈14.1% of pre-fee investment income as filed, gross of any fee waiversIncome incentive fees typically take 17.5–20% of pre-fee investment income over a hurdle. A capital-gains fee in an up-mark year is not recurring income economics — watch the split.

Manager Track Record

Through-the-cycle indicators computed from filed schedule-of-investments data: the non-accrual level and its four-quarter direction, the fleet standing among BDCs whose latest filing clears the 90% determinate-coverage gate, and the average debt mark against a year earlier. A track record, not a verdict — each row is coverage-gated and omitted when the data doesn’t support it. As of the 2026-08-10 filing.

Quarter-over-quarter changes

Borrowers added to and dropped from the book between the 2026-05-01 and 2026-08-10 filings, and the largest weighted-mark moves on borrowers held across both. Aggregated to the borrower so a company’s exposure is counted once even when its loan tranches are re-cut quarter to quarter; entries and exits under $0.5M are omitted as parse noise.

About Oxford Square Capital Corp

Oxford Square Capital Corp (OXSQ) is a publicly traded Business Development Company (BDC) — essentially a publicly listed fund that lends money to mid-sized private companies. In plain English: BDCs raise money from public investors and lend it to businesses that are too small for Wall Street banks. To qualify for pass-through tax treatment, they distribute at least 90% of their taxable investment income to shareholders, which is why BDC yields are often 8–12%. Oxford Square Capital Corp discloses its full loan portfolio through SEC filings.
