Fidus Investment: Blowout Quarter - What Private Credit Crisis?
Fidus Investment offers a 13.2% total dividend yield, trading at a 4% discount, with strong Q1 results and robust portfolio quality.

Fidus Investment: Blowout Performance But Still A Healthy Hold
Fidus Investment has delivered one of the best Q1 results in the BDC space. All the key metrics were robust across the board (be it non-accruals, NAV per share, NII per share, etc.). However, there are certain undercurrents that still make me reluctant to overweight FDUS.

Fidus Investment: Contrarian Buy At 52-Week Lows
Fidus Investment has dropped to 52-week lows last week, presenting a contrarian buying opportunity amid sector-wide fears and geopolitical turmoil. FDUS benefits from a variable rate loan portfolio, with 78.1% in first liens and $1.3B in assets, positioning it well if rates rise. Net investment income grew 5% year-over-year, supporting a multi-layered dividend strategy with coverage consistently near or above 100%.
Fidus Investment: No Need To Panic, But I'm Downgrading It
Fidus Investment remains fundamentally strong, with rising NAV per share, robust dividend coverage, and a conservative balance sheet. Q4 2025 saw NII per share growth, 121% dividend coverage, non-accruals below 1%, and 10.7% portfolio exposure to high-performing equity. However, significant SaaS and ARR loan exposure (37% and 7.5% of portfolio) make me less comfortable than before.
