A very faint candidate companion, either a brown dwarf or a very low-mass late M dwarf star, is detected 1.378 ±000.014 arcseconds away (265 AUs for d = 192.7 pc). The probability that the candidate companion is a background object is 1.59% but more observations are required to confirm physical association (Bohn et al. 2020).
