CHARLOTTE, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Capitala Finance Corp. (the "Company" or "Capitala") (Nasdaq:CPTA) announces that on October 1, 2015 its Board of Directors declared normal monthly distributions for October, November, and December of 2015 (the "Normal Distributions") and reiterates the previously announced special distributions for October, November, and December of 2015 (the "Special Distributions") as set forth below:

The Company has adopted an opt-out distribution reinvestment plan ("DRIP") that provides for reinvestment of distributions on behalf of its shareholders, unless a shareholder elects to receive cash. As a result, when the Company declares a cash distribution, shareholders who have not opted out of the DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company's common stock, rather than receiving cash.
