MidCap Financial Investment Corporation reported a quarterly net decrease in net assets from operations of $16.4 million, or a $0.20 per share loss, for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, compared with a $27.5 million gain a year earlier. Net asset value per share fell 3.8% to $12.86 from $13.37 on June 30, 2026, driven by a net loss on the portfolio tied to credit-related weakness in a limited number of positions.
