Advanced Flower Capital Inc. Announces Financial Results for the First Quarter 2026

WEST PALM BEACH, FL, May 7, 2026 – Advanced Flower Capital Inc. (Nasdaq: AFCG) (“AFC,” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

First Quarter 2026 Highlights

•GAAP net investment income (“NII”) for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, was $4.8 million, or $0.21 per basic weighted average share

•Net asset value per share as of March 31, 2026, was $7.90, as compared to $7.46 as of December 31, 2025

•GAAP net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 2026, was $11.4 million, or $0.49 per basic weighted average share

•Gross and net investment fundings were $80.9 million and $39.1 million, respectively

•Net debt-to-equity as of March 31, 2026 was 0.48x

“AFC delivered a strong first quarter with net investment income exceeding our quarterly dividend. Additionally, in our first quarter as a BDC, we saw an increase in investment fundings driven by our pipeline focused on the lower-middle market across various industries,” said Dan Neville, Chief Executive Officer.

Common Stock Distribution

On April 15, 2026, the Company paid a regular cash distribution of $0.05 per common share for the first quarter of 2026 to shareholders of record as of March 31, 2026.

Share Repurchase Authorization

On May 4, 2026, the Company’s Board authorized a program for the purpose of repurchasing up to $5.0 million of the Company's common stock (the “Repurchase Program”). Under the Repurchase Program, the Company may, but is not obligated to, repurchase its outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time, provided that the Company complies with the prohibitions under its compliance policies and procedures adopted in accordance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including certain price, market, volume, and timing constraints. Unless amended or extended by the Company's Board of Directors, the Company expects the Repurchase Program to be in place until the later of such time that $5.0 million of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock have been repurchased, or May 4, 2027.

Forward-Looking Statements

This release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 that reflect our current views and projections with respect to, among other things, future events and financial performance. Words such as “believes,” “expects,” “will,” “intends,” “plans,” “guidance,” “estimates,” “projects,” “anticipates,” and “future” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, including statements about our future growth and strategies for such growth, are subject to the inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions and are not guarantees of future performance, conditions or results. Certain factors, including the ability of our adviser to locate suitable loan opportunities for us, monitor and actively manage our loan portfolio and implement our investment strategy; management’s current estimate of expected credit losses and current expected credit loss reserve and other factors could cause actual results and performance to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. More information on these risks and other potential factors that could affect our business and financial results is included in AFC’s filings with the SEC, including in the “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of AFC’s most recently filed periodic reports on Form 10-K, Form 10-Q and subsequent filings. New risks and uncertainties arise over time, and it is not possible to predict those events or how they may affect AFC. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
