Ares Capital Faces Dividend Coverage Test Before Third-Quarter Results

Earnings did not cover the dividend in two recent quarters. Rising non-accrual loan levels and funding costs add to the focus on the company’s report.

Ares Capital’s dividend coverage will be a focus as the company prepares to release third-quarter results, after earnings failed to cover the payout in two recent quarters and non-accrual loans increased.

Rising non-accrual loan levels and funding costs also remain concerns. Further credit deterioration could weigh on earnings and portfolio values.

Ares Capital’s third-quarter report is scheduled for release before the U.S. market opens Tuesday, Oct. 27.
