424B2
Capital/Financing Update Classification · 100% confidence The document is a prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933. It details an equity offering of common stock, including information about the offering size, sales agents, use of proceeds, risk factors, and other related disclosures. The document is a registration and offering document related to capital raising activities, not a financial report, earnings release, or management discussion. It is not an announcement of a report but the actual offering document. Therefore, it fits the category of Capital/Financing Update filings.

IRANNOTICE
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a notice of disclosure filed pursuant to specific regulatory provisions (Section 219 of the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Section 13(r) of the Exchange Act). It references a Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, which was filed separately. The document itself is a short letter providing notice of this disclosure and does not contain substantive financial data or the full report. It is primarily a regulatory compliance filing and certification by an officer (General Counsel). Given the short length (1534 characters) and the nature of the content, this fits the criteria for a Regulatory Filing (RNS) rather than the actual quarterly report (IR) or any other report type.

10-Q
Interim / Quarterly Report Q1 2021
2021-04-28 English
8-K
Regulatory Filings Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Form 8-K filed with the SEC, dated April 28, 2021, for Ares Capital Corporation. It includes announcements of financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2021, and a declaration of a dividend for the second quarter of 2021. The document references a press release (Exhibit 99.1) containing the financial results and dividend declaration. The text explicitly states that the information is being furnished and not filed, and it includes no detailed financial statements or substantive financial data itself, only references to such data in other filings (10-Q and 10-K). The document is a current report announcing events and updates rather than a full financial report or earnings release. Given the nature of the filing (Form 8-K) and the content (announcement of financial results and dividend declaration), the best fitting category is Regulatory Filings (RNS), as it does not contain the full earnings release or detailed financial statements but is a regulatory announcement of these events.

DEFA14A
Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement Classification · 100% confidence The document is a Schedule 14A filing, which is a definitive proxy statement or additional materials related to a proxy solicitation for an upcoming Annual Meeting of Stockholders. It includes instructions on voting, proxy card usage, and information about the meeting date. The content is focused on soliciting votes and providing proxy materials rather than presenting financial data or management discussion. The document length is about 6005 characters, which is relatively short and consistent with proxy solicitation materials. This matches the description of Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement filings (PSI).

DEFA14A
Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement Classification · 95% confidence The document is a Schedule 14A filing, which is a definitive additional proxy statement material related to the annual stockholders meeting. It includes voting items such as election of directors and ratification of the independent auditor. It is not the proxy statement itself but additional materials related to proxy solicitation. The document is not an annual report, earnings release, or management report. It is clearly related to proxy solicitation and voting information. Therefore, the appropriate classification is Proxy Solicitation & Information Statement (PSI). The document length is 4522 characters, which is consistent with a proxy solicitation material rather than a full report. Confidence is high due to explicit references to Schedule 14A and proxy voting instructions.
