During the third quarter, we over-earned our targeted 9.00% annualized dividend yield and we also experienced an increase in our net asset value.  Based on our strong operating results and pursuant to our variable dividend policy, we are delighted to announce a $0.62 per share dividend for the fourth quarter of 2021, as compared to our original expectation of a $0.60 per share dividend. Finally, in October we further enhanced our already strong liquidity position by issuing $1.25 billion of unsecured notes at a weighted average coupon of 2.54%.  As we begin looking forward to 2022, I believe FSK is well positioned for future success.”
