Vertical Capital Income Fund (VCIF) Declares Distribution

DALLAS, Aug. 30, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Vertical Capital Income Fund (NYSE: VCIF) today announced a distribution of $0.024 per share, payable as follows:

Declaration – 8/30/2019        Ex-Date – 9/9/2019         Record Date – 9/10/2019      Payable – 9/17/2019

The August distribution was higher than the prior month as net investment income increased due to recent acquisitions and a reduction in non-recurring costs.

The Fund had approximately $3.4 million in cash as of the end of August. The reduction in cash versus the prior month is a result of acquisition activity and paying down the Fund's line of credit.  Approximately $5.5 million remains in the acquisition pipeline which is comprised of loans that have already been awarded to the Fund and are either in due diligence or through due diligence and awaiting closing.  These pending acquisitions are subject to various closing conditions, and the Fund cannot guarantee that those acquisitions will close.  The loans acquired in August and those included in the pipeline are consistent with the Fund's strategy to acquire performing residential whole loans to support the Fund's objective of seeking income.  

A new monthly net asset value per share of $12.79552 was produced on August 19, 2019 in connection with the payment of the Fund's July dividend.  For information on the Fund's current net asset value per share, please visit the Fund's website at vertical-incomefund.com.

The Fund's distribution rate may be affected by numerous factors, including changes in realized and projected market returns, Fund performance, and other factors. There can be no assurance that an unanticipated change in market conditions or other unforeseen factors will not result in a change in the Fund's distribution rate at a future time.  In order to comply with the requirements of Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Fund will provide its shareholders of record on each distribution date with a 19(a) Notice and issue an accompanying press release disclosing the sources of its distribution payment when a distribution includes anything other than net investment income.

The amounts and sources of distributions reported in 19(a) Notices are only estimates and are not provided for tax reporting purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during its full fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund will send shareholders a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell them how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes. Information on the Fund's 19(a) Notices, if any, can be found at www.vertical-incomefund.com. The final determination of the source and tax characteristics of all distributions in 2019 will be made after the end of the year.
