The Company's investment portfolio will be principally in middle-market private companies. " (7/19/2017)
- 2. National Securities analysts commented, "• Apollo’s NII/share of $0.17 for fiscal 4Q17 matched our own estimate and exceeded consensus estimates by a penny. The company’s portfolio at fair value decreased by 8.3% Q/Q to $2.32 billion largely as a result of sales and repayments of $344.8 million versus originations of $149.4 million. Management commented that thus far in the 6/30/17 quarter balance sheet leverage is within the company’s targeted range of 0.60x-0.70x, from 0.59x at the end of fiscal 2017, and thus we expect modest portfolio growth in fiscal 1Q18 and the remainder of fiscal 2018.
• Net realized losses during the quarter of $86.5 million drove the sequential 1.7% NAV/share decline to $6.74, partially offset by unrealized appreciation of $57.3 million. Realized losses were driven by Garden Fresh, Solarplicity, Osage Exploration & Development, and Aveta. For fiscal 2017, NAV/share decreased to $6.74 from $7.28 Y/Y, driving economic return of 1.6%. We model NAV/share to finish fiscal 2018 at $6.65 and fiscal 2019 at $6.79 and accordingly model economic return to improve to 7.5% and 11.2%, respectively.
• We are revising our fiscal 2018 NII/share estimate to $0.67 from $0.65 and are rolling out our fiscal 2019 NII/share estimate of $0.66. " (5/18/2017)

Consensus Ratings for Apollo Investment Corporation (NASDAQ:AINV) (How are Consensus Ratings Calculated?) MarketBeat calculates consensus ratings using the most recent rating from each brokerage that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Since brokers often use different ratings systems, each rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings. Each stock's consensus rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0-1.5 = Sell, 1.5-2.5 = Hold, 2.5-3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months.
MarketBeat will no longer include ratings and price target data in its consensus calculation if a broker drops coverage and MarketBeat has received a report that coverage was dropped. Ratings from certain research firms that issue ratings using purely quantitative methods (such as Zacks, Vetr and ValuEngine) are not included in consensus calculations. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.
