What are Wall Street analysts saying about Goldman Sachs BDC stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Goldman Sachs BDC stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. is a specialty finance company. The Company invests primarily in telecommunication services, electronic equipment, instruments and components and real estate management and development industries. Goldman Sachs BDC, Inc. is based in NEW YORK, United States. " (8/7/2019)
- 2. National Securities analysts commented, "▪ GSBD posted NII/share of $0.55 for 1Q19, ahead of our estimate of $0.50. The company earned a $493K incentive fee for the quarter as NAV/share slipped to $17.25 from $17.65 Q/Q.
▪ Goldman had a $24.7mm realized loss on the quarter, driven by the restructuring of former non-accrual ASC. At 12/31/18, ASC had $14.5mm of unrealized depreciation. Non-accruals at cost decreased to $76.2mm or 5.2% of the portfolio from $129.3mm or 9.1% of the portfolio Q/Q. The largest non-accrual with a cost of $56.0mm, NTS Communications, is slated to be sold pending approval from the FCC. We are unsure of what the timing will ultimately be, but Goldman is confident from conversations with the FCC that they have no reason to deny the sale of the firm.
▪ In May, Goldman and Cal Regents each contributed capital to the SCF in order repay the credit facility and buy out their pro rata portions of the assets. At 3/31/19, Goldman’s share of the assets at fair value stood at $221.8mm.
▪ The SCF is 98.8% first lien with a yield at cost of 7.6% compared with the on-balance sheet portfolio yield of 9.3%. While this is not a game changer by any means, we think it was smart for Goldman to appropriately manage their economic leverage now that they have reduced asset coverage and can also get rid of frictional costs of the JV. We think the company will use repayments of SCF assets to fund higher yielding loans, although the SCF loans have a median EBITDA of $48.8mm and likely can’t be actively sold with ease.
▪ With pricing more favorable, we expect Goldman to tap the unsecured debt market in 3Q19 with $200m of five-year notes priced at 5.25%. We expect the proceeds to pay-down the revolver balance, which was likely increased Q/Q for 2Q19 to fund the purchase of SCF assets.
▪ We are revising our 2019 NII/share estimate to $1.97 from $1.91 and our 2020 NII/share estimate to $1.92 from $1.90. We are maintaining our BUY rating and $22 price target." (5/13/2019)
