Written by Customer Service on . Posted in Public Companies.

HOUSTON, Nov. 13, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Equus Total Return, Inc. (NYSE: EQS) (the “Fund” or “Equus”) reports net assets as of September 30, 2019, of $49.0 million, an increase of approximately $1.1 million since June 30, 2019.  Net asset value per share increased to $3.63 as of September 30, 2019 from $3.55 as of June 30, 2019.  Comparative data is summarized below (in thousands, except per share amounts): 
The overall increase in net asset value during the third quarter of 2019 was principally due to an increase in the value of the Fund’s shareholding in PalletOne, Inc. (“PalletOne”).  Equus holds an 18.7% fully-diluted share interest in PalletOne, Inc. (“PalletOne”) one of the nation’s largest wooden pallet manufacturers and a major supplier of treated lumber in the southeastern United States.  The fair value of the Fund’s share interest in PalletOne increased from $24.5 million to $26.5 million during the third quarter of 2019, principally as a result of strong operational results during the quarter and the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2019.  The Fund received advice and assistance from a third-party valuation firm to support its determination of the fair value of this investment.About Equus
