On November 12, 2021, Stellus Capital Investment Corporation (the “Company”) announced that it is not proceeding with its previously announced public offering of 2,250,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, due to current market conditions, which were not conducive to the completion of the offering on terms that would be in the best interest of the Company’s current shareholders.

 

Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc., A Stifel Company; Wells Fargo Securities; Oppenheimer & Co. Inc.; and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC were acting as joint book-running managers for this offering.

   

A registration statement relating to these shares was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 21, 2019 and remains effective.
