Fidus Investment Corporation's Board of Directors declared a base dividend of $0.43 per share and a supplemental dividend of $0.11 per share for the first quarter of 2025. This results in a total dividend of $0.54 per share, payable on March 27, 2025, to stockholders of record as of March 20, 2025. The base dividend remains consistent with the prior quarter.
The supplemental dividend component of $0.11 per share represents an adjustment from the $0.18 per share supplemental dividend declared for the fourth quarter of 2024. This change reflects the company's managed dividend policy, which ties supplemental distributions to estimates of taxable income available for distribution. The total dividend of $0.54 per share is a decrease from the $0.61 total dividend declared for Q4 2024.
The company's dividend policy considers factors such as changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation, temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition, and undistributed taxable income. The final tax attributes for 2025 dividends will be determined after the close of the 2025 tax year.
