Portfolio and Business Commentary

(All figures as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, unless otherwise noted)

For the quarter ended ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share was $2322.3988, compared to $23.4239 as of ~~September~~December 3031, 2024. The quarter-over-quarter change in NAV per share was driven primarily by ~~distribution~~unrealized losses from certain of ~~prior~~the ~~undistributed~~Company’s ~~earnings~~investments in the portfolio. ~~Net~~Dividends ~~realized~~for ~~and~~the ~~unrealized~~quarter ~~loss~~ended onMarch 31, ~~investments~~2025 was ~~approximately~~ $0.355 ~~million~~per ~~for~~share, ~~the~~representing ~~three~~an ~~months~~annualized ~~ended~~distribution ~~December~~yield ~~31,~~of ~~2024~~9.62% based on first quarter NAV per share.1 The Company’s year-to-date return through ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025 was 70.7917%. ~~The Company’s annualized distribution rate is 11.4% as of December 31, 2024.1~~

As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company’s portfolio was $~~517~~523.95 million based on fair market value across 5060 portfolio companies and 18 industries. The Company’s unfunded commitments was $2523.68 million at ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025. Given our focus on middle market borrowers and our conservative structuring approach, our portfolio remained defensively positioned with 9897% first lien debt investments and 99% floating rate debt investments based on fair market value. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, there were two investments placed on non-accrual status, unchanged from prior quarter end.

We continue to operate around the low end of our target leverage ratio of 0.9x75x to 1.0x25x net debt to equity and remain focused on optimizing our funding sources and liquidity. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company’s net leverage ratio was 01.~~9x2~~07x.2 As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company had remaining facility sizes totaling $~~131~~101.0 million.3

Since inception and as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, the Company has closed on 7081 portfolio investments totaling over $~~881~~900 million of commitments at the time of original closing. At the time of original closing for these 7080 borrowers, the weighted average senior leverage was approximately 4.5 times, the loan-to-value ratio was approximately 40%, and the weighted average spread over reference rate to the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), and Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) was ~~625~~619 bps. As of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025, there were 5060 active borrowers, 33 of which are considered platform investments in the portfolio, with total outstanding commitments, including unfunded loan commitments, of approximately $~~559~~571.70 million.

1. The annualized distribution ~~rate~~yield is calculated by multiplying the current quarter’s (Q4Q1 ~~2024~~2025) regular distribution per share by four and dividing the result by the ~~prior~~current quarter’s ~~(Q3 2024)~~ ending NAV per share. If the calculation was based on the ~~current~~prior quarter’s (Q4 2024) ending NAV per share, the annualized distribution ~~rate~~yield would be 119.541% as of ~~December~~March 31, ~~2024~~2025.

^2.	Net leverage ratio is defined as debt outstanding less cash and cash equivalents, divided by net assets.

3. Includes borrowing facility sizes of $300.0 million under our SPV facility and $80.0 million under ~~our~~the ~~revolving~~A&R ~~Onex~~Revolving ~~loan~~OCF II Loan.
