FSK KKR Capital Corp. trades at a 33% discount to NAV but faces persistent credit quality issues and NAV erosion. Despite recent outperformance and a double-digit yield, FSK's high non-accruals and declining investment income raise concerns about dividend sustainability.

Dividend coverage is narrow and currently aided by a temporary incentive fee waiver, which expires after three more quarters.

The Dividend Harvesting Portfolio has achieved a 46.73% ROI with $3,219.84 forward annualized dividend income and a 7.81% yield. Recent additions include Starwood Property Trust (STWD) and FS KKR Capital Corp (FSK), both offering double-digit yields and trading at significant discounts. I expect continued outperformance as AI-driven productivity boosts big tech and the broader market, with dividend income on track to surpass $5,000 annually.

FS KKR Capital faces valuation pressure after two consecutive dividend cuts in Q4'25 and Q1'26 and persistent asset quality concerns. FSK's non-accrual ratio remains elevated at 3.8%, and dividend coverage is just 100%, signaling ongoing payout risk. I maintain a 'Hold' rating with a slightly negative outlook, citing potential for a dividend reset if loan quality does not improve and coverage drops below 100%.
