Why it matters for the long term
Over 10-20 years, what drives a share up is the growth of its profits (EPS) + reinvested dividends. The P/E tells you whether you are paying a lot or a little for that growth. In short: rising EPS + reasonable P/E + growing dividend = good long-term candidate.

About Ares Capital Corporation Common Stock
Ares Capital is a business development company, a specialized lender that provides loans to mid-sized private companies that are too small to easily borrow from banks or public bond markets. It earns money mainly from interest payments on those loans, plus occasional gains from equity stakes it sometimes takes alongside a loan. Because it operates under rules requiring it to hand most of its taxable income back to shareholders, it pays out a large dividend instead of reinvesting most of its profit.
