We had the opportunity to host Kyle Brown, CEO, and Ben Malcolmson, Head of Investor Relations at Trinity Capital (NYSE: TRIN), for an investor call with a group of institutional investors.
A few things stood out:
- Five unique verticals give Trinity a diversified platform while maintaining specialized expertise across its investment strategies.
- Alignment matters! Trinity is an internally managed BDC and does not pay a management fee to an external manager, which keeps management’s interests closely aligned with shareholders.
- Credit quality continues to stand out. Across 44 BDCs analyzed by Reuters, non-accruals increased from 2.5% to 3.4% of portfolio cost during the first half of 2026 – not for Trinity.
At Trinity, the trend moved in the opposite direction: non-accruals were just 0.8% of the debt portfolio in Q2, down from 1.1% in Q1.
***That’s an important distinction in today’s private credit environment.***
Thank you to Kyle and Ben for an engaging discussion and for sharing their perspective on Trinity’s platform, the BDC landscape, and the opportunities ahead.
