Key Highlights

Investment Quality Stable 72% of portfolio rated Risk 2 (consistent performance); only 9% rated Risk 1 (above expectations) at year-end 2025.

Risk Factors

Net Investment Income Decline Net investment income after taxes decreased to $117.84M in 2025 from $131.19M in 2024 due to lower debt investment yields.
Non-Accrual Exposure Rises Non-accrual assets totaled $17.0M fair value, representing 0.7% of total portfolio fair value at year-end 2025, up from $8.0M in 2024.
Level 3 Valuation Uncertainty Fair value determination relies heavily on Level 3 unobservable inputs, creating inherent uncertainty in reported net asset value figures.
Adviser Fee Structure Risk Fee structure may incentivize Adviser to pursue speculative investments or incur leverage, potentially not aligning with stockholder interests.

Outlook

New Share Repurchase Plan Board authorized a new $30.0M share repurchase program effective March 1, 2026, lasting until March 1, 2027, subject to NAV pricing.
Flexible Co-Investment Terms New 2026 Co-Investment Order adopted, superseding prior relief, allowing more flexible allocation requirements for affiliated funds.
Managing Leverage Costs Portfolio is highly exposed to variable rates; a 300 basis point rise in rates hypothetically reduces net income by $32.21M.
