The fact this companies shares have fallen so far has nothing to do with its fundamentals and everything to do the its association with an industry.

What's not to like? New low and a violent movement down, just because the company could not obtain permission to issue new shares. This is due to voter apathy. The BOD and management will try again. In the meantime, do more with less.

High yield BDC. Steady or increased quarterly dividend for 40 years. Yields about 8.5% now and has been beatup recently. No subprime exposure that I have observed in their portfolio,

Allied Capital has been been beaten to the pulp. I see this mid-cap size company bouncing back with expectation that it will stay above its covenant cut-offs and can obtain necessary financing. I look for ALD to come back more strongly in the third quarter of the year.

Allied Capital has paid 7 to 11 percent dividend consistently over the last two to three years, and has always paid since its inception. I have also experienced stock appreciation over the last three years as well. I except the stock to perform at this level for years to come!

A very generous dividen coupled with minor appreciation. Hindsight has shown, had I placed most of assets in this company in the peak of the Dot Com's that I would have scarcely noticed the bears.

Way too much debt!
I'm not positive, but this may no longer be rateable in the near future.

Strong performance in dividend increases backed by acceptable stock price appreciation, just ask say, David Einhorn.

This is at a 52 week low.
This is a great BDC that looks much more beaten down that circumstances warrant. It currently has a dividend yield of over 11%. I look for the price to rise until that is more like 7%.

Allied Capital has a good solid track record of selecting loan customers that both allow an ALD profit and allow for warrents, options, and stocks to make even more money for ALD. They have a very good long term total return and pay a good solid dividend. The didvidend is supported by both loan income and capital gains on the warrents, options, and stocks. A solid performer for sure.

Like ACAS, Allied Capital suffers from mark to market accounting, and from covenant default. ALD, however, is current on cash payments to lenders, and is a prodigious cash producer. A careful overview shows the company could instantly cure its current covenant default by transferring or selling notes it holds from the sale of various companies. Management insists it wants a comprehenisve overhaul of its debt arrangements, probably fearing further unrealized losses if it is forced to write down the value of its holdings further. Both ALD and ACAS suffer also from the rampant fear loose in the marketplace and from cavalier trreatment from a certain percentage of the analysts and rating agencies supposedly tracking the companies. Twenty three year olds really don't run the earth. They just think they do. Hubris is a wonderful thing.
