On August 5, 2014, the board of directors (the “Board”) of FS Investment Corporation (the “Company”) declared a regular monthly cash distribution of $0.07425 per share. The regular monthly cash distribution will be paid on or about September 3, 2014 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 25, 2014.
Certain Information About Distributions
The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon its taxable income and distributions paid, in each case, for the full year. Therefore, a determination as to the tax attributes of the distributions made on a quarterly basis may not be representative of the actual tax attributes for a full year. The Company intends to update stockholders quarterly with an estimated percentage of its distributions that resulted from taxable ordinary income. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.
The payment of future distributions on shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), is subject to the discretion of the Board and applicable legal restrictions and, therefore, there can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any such future distributions.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K may contain certain forward-looking statements, including statements with regard to the future performance and operation of the Company. Words such as “believes,” “expects,” “projects” and “future” or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to the inherent uncertainties in predicting future results and conditions. Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially include changes in the economy, risks associated with possible disruption in the Company’s operations or the economy generally due to terrorism or natural disasters, future changes in laws or regulations and conditions in the Company’s operating area. Some of these factors are enumerated in the filings the Company makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
