AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · FIDUS INVESTMENT Corp (FDUS)

Fidus Investment completes exchange of $120 million 6.625% notes due 2029

Neutral Impact 2 of 5 financing Written later

Fidus Investment Corporation closed an exchange offer on October 20, 2026, swapping $120.0 million of privately issued 6.625% notes due 2029 for registered notes with the same principal and terms. The filing confirms the notes are unsecured obligations that mature June 1, 2029, and the holders' principal amount is unchanged, so the exchange itself does not add new debt.

Key points

  • Exchange offer closed October 20, 2026; holders now hold the same $120.0 million principal in registered Exchange Notes
  • Notes bear 6.625% annual interest, paid semi-annually on June 1 and December 1, starting December 1, 2026, and mature June 1, 2029
  • Notes are unsecured and rank pari passu with existing unsecured debt, including the 6.750% notes due 2030; effectively and structurally subordinated to secured debt and subsidiary obligations
