Quarter by quarter

What NII is

Net investment income is what a business development company earned from its loans and investments after expenses, before any gains or losses on those investments. Its dividend is usually measured against this, because gains and losses can swing its earnings per share from one quarter to the next.

Where these come from

Each figure comes from Main Street Capital’s own earnings release, filed with the SEC, and every row above links to its filing. A figure goes on this page only when it agrees with the percent or coverage the company states, or reads the same from two places in the release. New filings are checked every evening.
