Sign InPennantPark Floating Rate Capital Ltd. (NASDAQ:PFLT) has received an average "Buy" rating from seven brokerage firms, with an average 12-month target price set at $10.50. The company recently declared a monthly dividend of $0.1025 per share, translating to an attractive yield of 13.6%. However, this generous dividend comes with a significant caveat: a very high payout ratio of 361.76%, raising questions about its long-term sustainability. Despite the positive analyst sentiment, shares of PFLT traded down 0.8% at $9.03. The company currently holds a market capitalization of approximately $895 million. Investors are weighing the appeal of high dividends against potential risks associated with the high payout ratio.
