NEW YORK, May 07, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MidCap Financial Investment Corporation (NASDAQ: MFIC) or the “Company,” today announced financial results for its quarter ended March 31, 2024. The Company’s net investment income was $0.44 per share for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, compared to $0.46 per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Mr. Tanner Powell, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Our results for the March quarter were solid and included a slight increase in net asset value per share, relatively stable credit performance, and continued de-risking of the portfolio.
