Description: OXLC Oxford Lane Capital

Oxford Lane Capital Corp. (NASDAQ: OXLC) is a closed-ended fund managed by Oxford Lane Management LLC that focuses on fixed-income securities, primarily investing in securitization vehicles that hold senior secured loans to sub-investment-grade or unrated companies. The fund was established on June 9 2010 and is domiciled in the United States.

As of the most recent quarterly filing (Q4 2023), OXLC reported net assets of approximately $1.2 billion, a net asset value (NAV) of $10.45 per share, and a distribution yield of 8.2%. The expense ratio stands at 0.90%, and the portfolio’s weighted-average loan spread is about 300 basis points over LIBOR, reflecting the current high-yield credit environment.

Given the Fed’s stance on interest rates and the ongoing tightening of credit standards, investors often monitor OXLC’s exposure to floating-rate senior secured loans as a hedge against rising rates. For a deeper dive into how these dynamics affect ValueRay’s valuation, you might want to explore the latest research on the platform.
