Q & A Highlights
Q: Can you clarify the driver of the PIK income for the quarter? A: The primary driver was the reversal of nonaccrual to accrual status for Klein Hersh, which had been on nonaccrual for the last three quarters. The company is performing well, and a significant portion of the coupon is PIK. - Suhail Shaikh, President, Director
