FS KKR Capital Faces Class Action Lawsuit Over Securities Fraud Claims
Investors who suffered losses in FS KKR Capital Corp. face a July 3, 2026, deadline to seek lead plaintiff status in a newly filed class action lawsuit. Pomerantz LLP alleges the investment firm and its leadership engaged in securities fraud, leaving shareholders to grapple with significant portfolio declines.

Alongside these figures, the firm acknowledged specific operational challenges and slashed its dividend from $0.70 to $0.48 per share.
