GBDC remains a 'hold' due to strong credit quality but rising risk of a dividend cut amid declining net investment income. GBDC's portfolio is highly sensitive to falling interest rates, leading to a 17% year-over-year decline in net investment income and just 100% dividend coverage. Despite a discounted valuation (P/BV 0.92x) and healthy portfolio quality, lower yields and spreads threaten future dividend sustainability.
