About Saratoga Investment Corp.

Saratoga helps smaller American businesses get the money they need to grow. It provides loans to companies that are too small for big banks. These funds help business owners buy new equipment or expand.

The Company Lending Menu

  • First Lien Loans: Senior debt instruments secured by company assets; accounts for 82.1% of the portfolio.
  • Equity Interests: Ownership stakes in private companies; represents 7.6% of the portfolio.
  • Structured Finance Securities: Investments in debt pools like collateralized loan obligations; makes up 4.9% of the portfolio.
  • Second Lien Term Loans: Secured debt that ranks behind first lien loans; comprises 3.9% of the portfolio.
  • Unsecured Loans: Debt provided without specific asset collateral; makes up 1.5% of the portfolio.

Strategic Moves and Partnerships

  • Received a license for SBIC III LP on September 29, 2022, to provide more capital to small businesses.

  • Earned $1.8 million in interest income from the SLF JV joint venture during the year ended February 28, 2026.

What Makes Them Different?

Saratoga operates as a Business Development Company, a specialized fund that must distribute most of its income to shareholders. It focuses on businesses with annual earnings between $2 million and $50 million, a niche often overlooked by large global investment banks.

  • Total return based on net asset value was 7.50% for the period ended February 28, 2026.

Saratoga's Evolution

Saratoga has transitioned from a general investment firm to a specialized lender for middle-market American companies. Its structure as a regulated investment company allows it to pass earnings directly to stockholders while supporting small business expansion.
