“The impact of the absolute level and continued increase in interest rates on our largely floating rate assets, when combined with the growth of our overall portfolio, its resilient performance and our largely fixed rate liabilities, have resulted in record earnings,” said Christian L. Oberbeck, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Saratoga Investment. “Saratoga’s second quarter dividend of 71c per share reflects an approximately 31% increase year-over-year. Annualizing this dividend rate, coupled with our last reported record quarterly adjusted net investment income of $1.08 per share, imply a 10.7% dividend yield, and importantly, a 16.3% earnings yield based on Saratoga’s recent stock price of $26.57 per share on August 11, 2023.”
This is the second dividend declared in fiscal year 2024. The Company previously declared a quarterly dividend of $0.70 per share for the quarter ended May 31, 2023. During fiscal 2023 the Company declared a quarterly dividend of $0.69 per share for the quarter ended February 28, 2023, $0.68 per share for the quarter ended November 30, 2022, $0.54 per share for the quarter ended August 31, 2022 and $0.53 per share for the quarter ended May 31, 2022. During fiscals 2022 and 2021 the Company declared a total dividend of $2.45 per share and $1.23 per share, respectively.
Shareholders will have the option to receive payment of the dividend in cash or receive shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”). Saratoga Investment shareholders who hold their shares with a broker must affirmatively instruct their brokers prior to the record date if they prefer to receive this dividend, and future dividends, in common stock. The number of shares of common stock to be delivered shall be determined by dividing the total dollar amount by 95% of the average of the market prices per share at the close of trading on the ten (10) trading days immediately preceding (and including) the payment date.
