## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**SLR Investment Corp. Announces Quarter Ended March 31, 2026 Financial Results**

**Net Increase in Net Assets from Operations of $0.31 Per Share; Net Asset Value of $18.16 Per Share**

**Declared Quarterly Distribution of $0.31 Per Share;**

**Investment Portfolio Continued to Exhibit Stable Credit Quality**

NEW YORK, May 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SLR Investment Corp. (NASDAQ: SLRC) (the "Company", "SLRC", "we", "us", or "our") today reported net investment income ("NII") of $17.9 million, or $0.33 per share, for the first quarter of 2026. On May 5, 2026, the Board declared a quarterly distribution of $0.31 per share payable on June 26, 2026, to holders of record as of June 12, 2026.

As of March 31, 2026, net asset value ("NAV") was $18.16 per share, compared to $18.26 per share at December 31, 2025.

"The combination of geopolitical volatility, disruption to the software & technology industries, and light M&A transaction activity created a risk-off and wait-and-see stance across our investment pipelines in the first quarter," said Michael Gross, Co-CEO of SLR Investment Corp. "As credit defaults continue to rise and dispersion manifests in private credit portfolios, we continue to believe the private credit industry is in the middle stages of a credit cycle and investment activity requires an even higher degree of underwriting selectivity than is typical and a heightened focus on capital preservation. While SLRC achieved solid total returns in Q1 from strong credit performance and a 100% performing portfolio, the manager voluntarily elected to permanently reduce the performance-based incentive fee to further align ourselves with our fellow shareholders."

"Our comprehensive portfolio remained highly diversified across specialty finance asset classes supported by actively managed borrowing bases with continued limited exposure to cash flow investments," said Bruce Spohler, Co-CEO of SLR Investment Corp. "While we do see some evidence that investment activity and terms have improved, we will be patient and opportunistic in rebuilding the comprehensive portfolio over the remainder of the year. Additionally, we have been implementing growth initiatives across our specialty finance investment strategies that should further buoy portfolio growth."
