TriplePoint Venture Growth (TPVG) stands out by focusing on earlier-stage, high-growth companies rather than the typical middle market BDC approach. I view TPVG as a buy, despite its elevated risk profile and a dividend yield exceeding 20%, which will likely get cut in the quarters to come. Recent financials reveal a 25% NII decline and base dividend coverage dropping to 91%, signaling likely near-term dividend cuts.
Investor sentiment in venture debt BDCs continues to be shaped by perceived AI-driven risks to software portfolios. TPVG is down 15% over the last year, with TRIN up 13%. TRIN offers an 11.07% annualized yield with monthly distributions, while TPVG pays 580 basis points over this with its 16.9% yield but with coverage at 91% versus 100% from TRIN. TPVG saw NII fall 26.5% year-over-year versus growth of 32.1% for TRIN, with TPVG trading at a deep 37% discount to NAV per share. TRIN trades at a 35% premium.
Since Regulated Investment Companies are legally required to distribute substantially all taxable income, earnings outperformance translates directly into supplemental cash payouts. OBDC generated $0.34 per share in ANII (Adjusted Net Investment Income), triggering its formulaic supplemental dividend policy ($0.02 per share) to distribute 50% of excess earnings. TPVG's venture lending strategy realized a major $12.8 million capital gain from selling a portion of its Revolut equity holding, resulting in $0.12 of supplemental dividends.
TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC NYSE: TPVG reported second-quarter results that reflected increased investment activity, continued portfolio repositioning and two monetization events intended to improve liquidity and reduce exposure to payment-in-kind income.
TriplePoint Venture Growth (TPVG) came out with quarterly earnings of $0.21 per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.24 per share. This compares to earnings of $0.28 per share a year ago.
