Published

on

PHILADELPHIA and NEW YORK, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ –FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK) (“FSK” or the “Company”) announced today that its board of directors has declared (i) a fourth quarter 2026 distribution on shares of the Company’s common stock of $0.44 per share and (ii) a special distribution on shares of the Company’s common stock of $0.20 per share, which represents a portion of the Company’s estimated undistributed taxable income. FSK also announced that it will host its third quarter 2026 results conference call via live webcast on Thursday, November 5, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. (Eastern Time) and that the Company plans to release its third quarter 2026 results before the opening of trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday, November 5, 2026.

Declaration of Fourth Quarter 2026 Common Stock Distribution

On October 7, 2026, FSK’s board of directors declared a distribution for the fourth quarter of $0.44 per share of common stock, which will be paid on or about December 24, 2026 to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 16, 2026.

The Company’s regular quarterly distribution is based on management’s current estimates and expectations regarding the Company’s financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026. The Company’s actual GAAP net investment income for the quarter remains subject to the completion of customary quarter-end closing procedures and the finalization of its financial statements and, as a result, actual GAAP net investment income may differ from current expectations. Accordingly, the declared distribution should not be viewed as a projection, forecast or guarantee of the Company’s financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2026.

Declaration of Special Common Stock Distribution

On October 7, 2026, FSK’s board of directors declared a special distribution of $0.20 per share of common stock, which will be paid on or about December 15, 2026 to common stockholders of record as of the close of business on December 1, 2026.

The special distribution amount represents a portion of the Company’s estimated accumulated spillback income and is intended to distribute additional taxable income to shareholders in connection with the Company’s maintenance of its treatment as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Certain Information About Distributions

The determination of the tax attributes of FSK’s distributions is made annually as of the end of its 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 actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders will be reported to stockholders annually on Form 1099-DIV.

The timing and amount of any future distributions on FSK’s shares of common stock are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of its board of directors. There can be no assurance as to the amount or timing of any such future distributions.

FSK has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. In addition, portions of our distributions may be funded indirectly through the waiver of certain investment advisory fees by our investment adviser. Any distributions funded through waivers of investment advisory fees will not be based on our investment performance and can only be sustained if we achieve positive investment performance in future periods and/or our investment adviser and its affiliates continue to make such reimbursements or waivers of such fees. There can be no assurance that FSK will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.

OMNICOM MEDIA AND REMBRAND PARTNER TO SCALE IN-CONTENT ADVERTISING ACROSS PREMIUM STREAMING

Published

on

By

First-to-market capability brings together Acxiom, Omni, and Rembrand’s VISTA platform, with access to premium inventory from major media partners

NEW YORK, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Omnicom Media, an Omnicom (NYSE: OMC) Connected Capability, and in-content advertising platform Rembrand are partnering to bring in-content advertising into the mainstream media mix with a first-to-market capability that enables brands to identify, plan, and activate in-content placements across first-look premium streaming inventory from multiple major media companies.

The partnership provides OM’s Content Collective – the group’s branded content center of excellence – first-mover access to Rembrand’s AI-powered VISTA platform, which scans publisher content to identify scenes that can be monetized by insertion of in-content advertising. Using AcxiomRealID™ and direct integrations with major streamers, brands can identify the most relevant content for a given audience. Pairing this intelligence with Rembrand’s VISTA platform, brands unlock a more systematic and scalable way to find relevant programming and activate against those opportunities across participating streaming partners.

Historically, in-content advertising has been managed through bespoke partnerships and individual content integrations. The new capability brings those opportunities into a common planning framework, giving media teams visibility across participating publishers and allowing in-content placements to be considered alongside broader media investments.

The collaboration is rooted in a fundamental shift in consumer behavior. Omnicom Media’s recent research, From Tuned Out to Leaned In: How to Combat Ad Avoidance, found that 65% of U.S. consumers avoid advertising to some degree, whether by skipping, scrolling, muting, or ignoring ads. As consumers use subscriptions, apps, AI, and other tools to exert greater control over their media experiences, brands need new ways to reach people without creating another interruption.

Additionally, commissioned research conducted by Omnicom Media’s Partner Intelligence team in collaboration with Rembrand evaluated the effectiveness of in-content advertising, finding that, when paired with traditional video ads, perceptions of premium content amplify the performance of ICAs, driving a 5.5 times impact on message recall, and a 4x increase in both purchase intent and perceptions of the brand as premium.

“Our research identified how quickly consumers actively or passively disengage when advertising feels intrusive or overly repetitive,” said Megan Pagliuca, Chief Product Officer, Omnicom Media. “To address this, we have launched new capabilities in streaming to address negative reach, improve relevance and measurability of traditional brand experiences, and now we are complementing these with a first of its kind data driven, scalable approach to in-content advertising.”

How It Works

The capability connects four stages:

Audience matching: Acxiom audience segments are matched with streaming viewership data to identify shows, movies, and genres that best index with a target audience.Inventory mapping: Relevant programming is matched against in-content advertising opportunities available through VISTA.Inventory expansion: Additional content can be onboarded through established processes with participating streaming partners when relevant opportunities are not yet available.Activation: Brands deploy in-content placements against selected audiences and programming across participating publishers.

The result is a way to put brands directly into content consumers have chosen to watch, while providing greater visibility into in-content supply across publishers.

“In-content advertising has always offered brands the opportunity to show up within content people have actively chosen to watch,” said John Sedlak, Chief Revenue Officer, Rembrand. “Our collaboration with Omnicom Media makes those opportunities easier to identify, plan and activate across premium streaming, bringing a new level of scale and consistency to the category.”

Applications range from an automaker placing a new model in relevant programming across a streamer, using Acxiom in-market auto segments to reach shoppers who routinely avoid traditional ads, to a beverage brand appearing in top-indexing summer programming during key seasonal purchase periods. Retail brands can similarly use in-content placements to directly connect exposure to the path to purchase.

Summing up the response to-date from clients who have been briefed on the new capability, Jillian Davis, Director of Marketing Technology for Auto Trader and Kelly Blue Book parent company Cox Automotive said, “We’re always eager to leverage new, scalable and organic ways to reach our customers within premium content.”

Equifax Reports Accelerated Adoption of VantageScore® 4.0 Across the Mortgage Industry

Published

By

Nearly 2,000 Mortgage Lenders Implementing Modern, Alternative Data-Driven Scoring Model; Equifax Extends $1 VantageScore 4.0 Pricing through the End of 2028 to Drive Industry Adoption, Homeownership Affordability, and Cost Savings

Nearly 2,000 mortgage lenders and resellers are taking advantage of the Equifax offer of free VantageScore® 4.0 credit scores with paid legacy scores, and more than 165 lenders are exclusively using VantageScore 4.0 at the $1 price for certain types of loans.Equifax maintains $1 VantageScore 4.0 mortgage credit score pricing through the end of 2028 to expand industry adoption, reduce loan acquisition costs, and drive potential $1 billion in industry cost savings.Equifax continues to enhance the value of mortgage solutions by delivering The Work Number® Report Indicator and additional alternative data including telco, pay TV and utilities attributes alongside the Equifax mortgage credit report at no additional cost.

ATLANTA, Oct. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Equifax® (NYSE: EFX) today announced a significant milestone in mortgage scoring modernization, with nearly 2,000 lenders taking advantage of free VantageScore® 4.0 credit scores with paid legacy scores from April 2026 through September 2026, including a 230% increase in VantageScore 4.0 credit scores pulled between April 2026 and August 2026 for mortgages. This accelerated mortgage lender adoption follows Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) approval of VantageScore 4.0 for use in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac mortgages. Mortgage lenders are rapidly embracing this modern scoring model and Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA) governed alternative data not included in traditional credit reports to expand access to credit and drive housing affordability for millions of Americans.

“Our AI technology helps borrowers see their best loan options in minutes. With lenders now able to choose their credit score model, we added VantageScore 4.0 as one of the scoring models we use, giving us more flexibility in how we evaluate applicants, while keeping the experience quick and easy,” said Magesh Sarma, Chief Operating Officer, AmeriSave Mortgage Corporation.

Equifax is maintaining $1 VantageScore 4.0 mortgage credit score pricing through the end of 2028 to expand adoption, reduce loan acquisition costs, and drive a potential $1 billion in cost savings for the industry and consumers from the cost difference among score providers.

“The landmark decision by FHFA Director William Pulte and Housing and Urban Development Secretary Scott Turner to open VantageScore 4.0 for use across both conventional and FHA-insured loans has advanced homebuying into a new era of credit scoring competition that drives greater performance and cost savings for both lenders and consumers,” said Mark W. Begor, CEO of Equifax. “We are seeing strong momentum across the mortgage sector as lenders rapidly adopt VantageScore 4.0 to drive better decisioning and expand access to credit.”

More data drives better decisions
VantageScore 4.0 utilizes up to 24 months of trended data and incorporates alternative data, such as rental, utility, and telco payment histories, providing lenders with a more comprehensive view of borrower creditworthiness without adding additional risk. The model provides deeper financial insights that can deliver a 20% lift in originations and generate credit scores for consumers with thin credit files.

“The strong industry adoption has been driven by years of preparation by our teams to ensure that VantageScore 4.0 could be accessible to all lenders, allowing them to effectively test and evaluate the score through their processes,” said Joel Rickman, General Manager and SVP of U.S. Mortgage and Verification Services at Equifax. “Equifax is deeply committed to supporting the mortgage industry and the consumers we serve, especially as we navigate the most difficult mortgage market in decades. We view our role in expanding homeownership as a vital responsibility while delivering significant savings to consumers and the mortgage industry.”

Equifax remains the only Nationwide Consumer Reporting Agency to provide alternative data insights – such as payment histories for telco, pay TV, and utilities – alongside tri-merge consumer credit reports for the mortgage market at no additional cost to lenders. Equifax also empowers lenders with early access to an employment indicator through its suite of The Work Number® Report Indicator solutions at no additional cost including:

The Work Number® Report Indicator for Mortgage: Streamlines underwriting workflows by providing an indicator of whether data from The Work Number is available on the applicant
