These 3 Dividend Stocks Could Slash Their Payouts
Shareholders of Triangle Capital (NYSE: TCAP), Ares Capital (NASDAQ: ARCC), and Hercules Capital (NYSE: HTGC) should look at these stocks' sky-high yields with skepticism. As business-development companies (BDCs), these stocks reward investors with high yields, thanks to a requirement that they distribute 90% of their income to shareholders. BDCs can be thought of as closed-end funds that make loans and equity investments in small, private companies around the United States.
Recently, the yields BDCs can earn on new investments have come down, and loan losses have increased. It's likely that these three companies will have to cut their dividends to align their payouts with their true earnings power.
