"Our net investment income again exceeded our distribution," said Bilal Rashid, OFS Capital\'s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "We have declared 25 consecutive quarterly distributions of $0.34 per common share since our IPO in late 2012, which we believe places us in a select group of BDCs that have been able to maintain their distribution over this time. In total, we have declared $8.70 per common share in regular and special distributions and our net investment income over the last four years exceeded our regular distributions."

“We believe that the breadth and expertise of our advisor puts us in a strong position to benefit from the increase in the leverage allowance for BDCs and enhance our net investment income. Our commitment to capital preservation, and strong long-term performance is enhanced by the alignment of interests of our stockholders and our advisor, which owns approximately 22% of the outstanding OFS Capital common stock."
