Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC
Angel Oak fund issues preferred shares and senior notes for refinancing
Summary: Angel Oak Financial Strategies Income Term Trust announced a $50 million private offering of Series A mandatorily redeemable preferred shares and a $40 million private offering of Series C senior notes. The announcement says Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC is the fund's investment adviser, so financing terms and ratings should remain attributed to the Business Wire release rather than treated as independent validation.
Why it matters: The update may matter to diligence readers as a public signal about leverage structure, refinancing activity, and capital-market access for a listed closed-end fund advised by Angel Oak Capital Advisors.
Summary
Angel Oak Financial Strategies Income Term Trust announced on May 22, 2026 that it closed a $50 million private offering of Series A mandatorily redeemable preferred shares due April 30, 2031. The same Business Wire release says the fund entered into a notes purchase agreement for a $40 million private offering of Series C senior notes due July 8, 2030.
The release says the preferred shares are rated A3 by Moody’s Investors Service and the Series C senior notes are rated A1 by Moody’s. It also says net proceeds from the preferred-share offering are expected to be used primarily to refinance existing debt and make new portfolio investments, while proceeds from the Series C notes are expected to redeem the fund’s 2.35% Series A senior notes maturing July 8, 2026.
The source identifies Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC as the fund’s investment adviser. All financing terms, ratings, use-of-proceeds language, and leverage commentary should be attributed to the paid press release and not presented as independent confirmation of credit quality, fund suitability, or future results.
Why it matters
For due-diligence readers, this is a monitorable public signal about how a listed closed-end fund advised by Angel Oak Capital Advisors is managing leverage and refinancing upcoming debt maturity. The maturity dates, stated ratings, and intended use of proceeds give readers concrete follow-up points for tracking the fund’s capital structure over time.
The signal is still narrow. A financing release does not by itself show portfolio quality, shareholder outcome, leverage risk under stress, manager skill, or whether any fund exposure is appropriate for a particular investor.

9AT filing context
Public ADV/profile context maps Angel Oak Capital Advisors, LLC to CRD 151090 / SEC file 801-70670 as an Atlanta adviser with public website/domain angeloakcapital.com. The returned profile shows about $11.5 billion in reported regulatory AUM/profile scale, 78 employees, 24 advisory employees, 15 private funds, SMA activity, and a last ADV submission date of 2026-03-31.
That filing context is useful for adviser identity and platform scoping only. It does not validate the fund’s ratings, leverage terms, refinancing economics, credit quality, portfolio composition, shareholder impact, or suitability. Although 13F data exists for Angel Oak Capital Advisors / CIK 1613158, it is delayed listed-securities context and is not central to this closed-end-fund financing item, so no 13F holdings interpretation is included here.
What to watch
Watch for follow-up fund reports, shareholder materials, rating-agency actions, leverage disclosures, and any later filings or manager updates that show how the preferred shares and Series C notes affect the fund’s leverage profile, refinancing schedule, portfolio activity, and shareholder communication.
