Business Development Companies, known as BDCs, offer the retail investor exposure to privately-held firms, which often are funded by venture capital firms. However, since they invest in privately-held companies, it's up to BDC's management to keep investors informed on the economic health of their portfolio companies. This BDC yields 10.52%, including quarterly special dividends. It's selling at an -12.80% discount to its 3/31/21 NAV/share. The company recently reported Q1 '21 - updated earnings, valuations and profitability comps vs. the BDC industry are covered in this article.
