Carlyle Secured Lending Inc. announced that it has entered into an equity distribution agreement to offer up to $150 million in common stock. This offering will be conducted through an at-the-market (ATM) program, allowing the company to issue shares periodically into the market. The agreement provides CGBD with additional capital-raising flexibility.
The proceeds from any sales under this agreement are expected to be used for general corporate purposes, which may include funding new investment opportunities or managing existing liabilities. While the ATM offering provides capital access, it also introduces the potential for dilution to existing shareholders, depending on the volume and pricing of shares issued. This type of offering allows the company to raise capital incrementally, adapting to market conditions.
This financing strategy complements CGBD's recent strategic initiatives, such as the merger with Carlyle Secured Lending III, by providing further resources for growth and portfolio management. Investors will monitor the execution of this agreement for its impact on the company's capital structure and per-share metrics.
