"Our execution this quarter demonstrates our ability to employ multiple capital formation strategies to acquire additional SOL in a highly accretive manner."The firm utilized its at-the-market offering, selling 93,642 common shares during the quarter to raise funds. Despite Wednesday's price jump, shares have fallen around 26% in the last six months of trading and are now 89% off their 52-week high of $46. Beyond share price, the firm measures SOL held per share as an indicator of its performance, which has grown to 0.0729 or around 9% in the last three months. "By repurchasing shares when Forward trades at a discount to NAV and issuing equity when our shares trade at a premium, we dynamically allocate capital in a way that compounds SOL per share and enhances long-term intrinsic value," said Navi. Moving forward, the firm believes its shares will also experience improved liquidity and increased visibility as a result of its inclusion into the Russell 2000 and 3000 indexes.
