Summary
Eagle Point Credit reported strong Q2 2026 results: NAV per share rose to $4.51 from $4.17, driven by $159.3M in unrealized gains as CLO equity prices recovered. GAAP net income was $70.0M ($0.53/share), though NII less realized losses was negative $0.62/share due to $104.4M in realized losses. The company declared Q4 common distributions of $0.06/month and provided a July 31 NAV estimate of $4.33-$4.43. Portfolio repositioning continues with $124.6M deployed in Q3 through July. The 12.7% GAAP return on equity and NAV growth signal improving credit conditions, but realized losses and declining CLO yields warrant attention.
