Every open-market trade in the period is a purchase: 12 purchases worth €6.4M, from 2 insiders, and not a single sale. The amount is not disclosed for 3 filings.

About Prospect Capital Corp
Prospect Capital Corp. is a U.S.-based investment company listed on the NASDAQ under the ticker PSEC. The company is organized as a Business Development Company (BDC) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means its core business is providing capital to private middle-market companies rather than operating as a traditional commercial bank. Its headquarters are in New York, New York, United States.
Prospect was organized as a closed-end investment company in April 2004 and completed its IPO in 2004. Since inception, the firm has pursued a private credit and structured equity strategy centered on senior secured lending, first-lien and second-lien loans, and selected equity or equity-linked investments. This model is designed to generate recurring interest income and support a yield-oriented investor base, while retaining flexibility to participate in upside through equity positions when appropriate.

Operationally, Prospect focuses on U.S. middle-market businesses, including both sponsor-backed and non-sponsor-backed companies. Its primary uses of capital include refinancings, leveraged buyouts, acquisitions, recapitalizations, later-stage growth investments, and capital expenditures. The portfolio is diversified across multiple industries, with exposure to healthcare services, consumer credit, commercial services, logistics, software, distribution, and food-related businesses. That diversification is important because it helps reduce reliance on any single industry cycle or borrower type.
In competitive terms, Prospect is one of the longer-established and larger BDC platforms in the U.S. market. Its positioning emphasizes credit discipline, a preference for senior secured assets, and the ability to act as a lead or sole lender in customized financing solutions. The company also highlights the long operating history of its senior management team and its capacity to finance complex situations where speed, certainty of execution, and structuring expertise matter.
Recent developments have reinforced the company’s capital-market activity. In May 2026, Prospect reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, showing total assets above $6.3 billion and a sizable perpetual preferred capital base. During 2025 and 2026, the company also executed debt and preferred-stock funding transactions, underscoring its active use of public-market financing to support portfolio growth and liquidity management. For investors, Prospect Capital therefore represents a yield-focused U.S. private credit BDC listed on the NASDAQ in the United States, with a business model built around middle-market lending and diversified income generation.
