There are more opportunities for us today than ever before! There is a void in middle market private equity sponsor backed lending of at least $7 to $10 billion in size. I think that the void will increase as middle market Mergers and Acquisitions activities continue to accelerate into next year. We will gain substantial market share as we continue to ramp our origination effort... - Leonard M. Tannenbaum (FSC) (Interview published January 1, 2010) |

Fifth Street Finance Corp. Declares Monthly Dividends of 10.66 Cents Per Share WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Dec. 3, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fifth Street Finance Corp. (NYSE:FSC) ("Fifth Street") today announced that its Board of Directors has declared monthly dividends for the second fiscal quarter of 2011 ending March 31, 2011. The following table reflects the dividends which the Board of Directors declared on November 30, 2010:
Dividends are paid from taxable income. Fifth Street's Board of Directors determines dividends based on estimates of taxable income, which differ from book income due to changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments and due to temporary and permanent differences in income and expense recognition. Fifth Street's amended dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") provides for reinvestment of dividends, unless a shareholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if Fifth Street's Board of Directors declares a cash dividend, Fifth Street's shareholders who have not "opted out" of Fifth Street's DRIP will have their cash dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of Fifth Street common stock, rather than receiving cash dividends. If you are a Fifth Street shareholder and your shares of Fifth Street common stock are held through a brokerage firm or other financial intermediary and you wish to participate in the DRIP, please contact your broker or other financial intermediary.
