Key Takeaways
RWAY will report Q2 2025 results on Aug. 7, with earnings projected to rise 5.4% year over year.

Stable interest rates may have supported RWAY's loan yields, aiding interest income in the quarter.
Runway Growth Finance Corp. (RWAY - Free Report) is slated to report second-quarter 2025 results on Aug. 7, after market close. Its revenues are expected to have declined, while earnings are likely to have risen on a year-over-year basis.
In the last reported quarter, RWAY’s earnings beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Results were aided by lower expenses and robust portfolio activities. However, lower total investment income acted as a spoilsport.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for RWAY’s earnings is pegged at 39 cents, stable over the past seven days. The figure indicates a 5.4% increase from the prior-year quarter.
The consensus estimate for sales is pegged at $34 million, which suggests a marginal fall.
Other Factors to Impact RWAY’s Q2 Earnings
The Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged at 4.25-4.5% during the second quarter of 2025, which is likely to have aided Runway Growth’s interest income given higher loan yields.
