I asked in one of the other threads if anyone knew the CLO debt/equity breakdown for Eagle Point Institutional. I wasn’t able to find it on the glossy part of their website (https://www.epiif.com/), but it’s in their semi-annual report (https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1896036/000199937124010903/epiif-ncsrs_063024.htm).
As of June 24, they had 97% CLO equity and only 3% CLO debt. This makes their holdings much closer to the higher risk ECC than the lower risk EIC. But as Tim pointed out in his comment, this new issue looks to be the only debt they have, so they likely have better coverage than ECC with regard to the preferred.
Safer than E. PT Credit preferreds.
Gary–today it would be safer as they have no current leverage–looking at their portfolio it is about the same.
i see EIC and ECC but no institutional fund trading the common ; will this be an “orphan”?
ted–this will trade on the NYSE. Similar to Priority Income Fund which has no common shares trading on an exchange. Sellers are offered the chance to sell each month.
