Pennantpark Floating Rate Capital announced a monthly supplemental distribution for August 2026, payable on September 1, 2026. The event was announced on August 4, 2026. The amount is stated in UST terms in the filing.
Holders of record on the qualifying date will receive the supplemental payout on top of any regular distribution. Short sellers face the other side of this mechanic: anyone borrowing PFLT shares owes a payment in lieu — replicating the dividend to the share lender out of their own pocket — which raises the effective cost of holding that short position. With short interest at 4.2% of free float and a cost to borrow of 3.3%, the borrow market is not especially tight. Availability remains relatively relaxed, so the distribution liability is an incremental drag rather than an acute squeeze risk.
