Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)

September 30, 2025

Note 1. Organization

Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc. (“ICMB” or the “Company”), a Maryland corporation formed in May 2013, is a closed-end, externally managed, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services – Investment Companies ("ASC 946").

On February 11, 2014, the Company completed its initial public offering (the “Offering”), selling 7,666,666 shares of its common stock, par value $0.001, including the underwriters’ over-allotment, at a price of $15.00 per share with net proceeds of approximately $111.5 million.

CM Finance LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, commenced operations in March 2012. Immediately prior to the Offering, CM Finance LLC was merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). In connection with the Merger, the Company issued 6,000,000 shares of common stock and $39.8 million in debt to the pre-existing CM Finance LLC investors, consisting of funds managed by Cyrus Capital Partners, L.P. (the “Original Investors” or the “Cyrus Funds”). The Company had no assets or operations prior to completion of the Merger and, as a result, the books and records of CM Finance LLC became the books and records of the Company, as the surviving entity. Immediately after the Merger, the Company issued 2,181,818 shares of its common stock to Stifel Venture Corp. (“Stifel”) in exchange for $32.7 million in cash. The Company used all of the proceeds of the sale of shares to Stifel to repurchase 2,181,818 shares of common stock from the Original Investors. Immediately after the completion of the Offering, the Company had 13,666,666 shares outstanding. The Company used a portion of the net proceeds of the Offering to repay 100% of the debt issued to the Original Investors in connection with the Merger.

CM Investment Partners LLC (the “Adviser”) serves as the Company’s investment adviser. On August 30, 2019, Investcorp Credit Management US LLC (“Investcorp”), a subsidiary of Investcorp Bank Holdings B.S.C., acquired the interests in the Adviser, which were previously held by the Cyrus Funds and Stifel and paid off certain debt owed by the Adviser, resulting in Investcorp having a majority ownership interest in the Adviser (the “Investcorp Transaction”). On August 30, 2019, CM Finance, Inc. changed its name to Investcorp Credit Management BDC, Inc. On August 31, 2023, Investcorp acquired approximately an additional 7% ownership interest in the Adviser. On December 12, 2024, Investcorp assigned its ownership of the Adviser to IVC Credit Management Financing, LLC, its parent entity, and the entity that manages Investcorp’s US credit management regulated entities.

In connection with the Investcorp Transaction, on June 26, 2019, the Company entered into a definitive stock purchase and transaction agreement with Investcorp BDC Holdings Limited (“Investcorp BDC”), an affiliate of Investcorp (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”). Under the Stock Purchase Agreement, Investcorp BDC was required by August 30, 2021 to purchase (i) 680,985 newly issued shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at the most recently determined net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock at the time of such purchase, as adjusted as necessary to comply with Section 23 of the 1940 Act, and (ii) 680,985 shares of the Company’s common stock in open-market or secondary transactions. Investcorp BDC has completed all required purchases under the Stock Purchase Agreement.

In connection with the Investcorp Transaction, on June 26, 2019, the Company’s board of directors, including all of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (each, an “Independent Director”), unanimously approved a new investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) which was subsequently approved by the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on August 28, 2019. In connection with the closing of the Investcorp Transaction, on August 30, 2019, the Company entered into the Advisory Agreement and a new administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with the Adviser as its investment adviser and administrator, respectively. The Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement are substantially similar to the Company’s prior investment advisory agreement between the Company and the Adviser and the Company’s prior administration agreement, respectively.

As a BDC, the Company is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, as a BDC, the Company must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets,” as defined in Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of total assets are qualifying assets. Qualifying assets generally include investments in “eligible portfolio companies,” which, under the 1940 Act, are generally defined as any issuer that (1) is organized under the laws of, and has its principal place of business, in the United States; (2) is not an investment company (other than a small business investment company wholly-owned by the BDC) or a company that would be an investment company but for certain exclusions under the 1940 Act; and (3) either does not have any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange or has any class of securities listed on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than $250 million, in each case organized and with their principal of business in the United States. As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not hold any non-qualifying assets in its portfolio.

From time-to-time, the Company may form taxable subsidiaries that are taxed as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (the “Taxable Subsidiaries”). At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had no Taxable Subsidiaries. The Taxable Subsidiaries, if any, allow the Company to hold equity securities of portfolio companies organized as pass-through entities while continuing to satisfy the requirements applicable to a RIC under the Code.

From inception through June 30, 2024, the Company reported on a June 30 fiscal year-end. On September 18, 2024, the Company changed its fiscal year end from June 30 to December 31. See Note 3 in the Company's Form 10-KT for the six-month period from July 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024 (the "Transition Period") for more information.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Company.

a. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. The unaudited financial statements and notes should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto for the Transition Period ended December 31, 2024. All values are stated in U.S. dollars, unless noted otherwise. The financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the periods included herein as required by U.S. GAAP. These adjustments are normal and recurring in nature.

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the fair value of investments and other amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Management believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the Company’s consolidated financial statements are reasonable and prudent. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. All material inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated.

As permitted under Regulation S-X and ASC 946, the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a portfolio company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing all or substantially all of its services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the results of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, CM Finance SPV Ltd. (“SPV”) and Investcorp Credit Management BDC SPV, LLC (“SPV LLC”), which are special purpose vehicles used to finance certain investments in its consolidated financial statements. The effects of all material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company reclassified prior period affiliate and other information in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Consolidated Statements of Operations to conform to its current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or the consolidated results of operations as previously reported.

b. Revenue Recognition, Security Transactions, and Realized/Unrealized Gains or Losses

Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Origination, closing, commitment, and amendment fees, and purchase and original issue discounts (“OID”) associated with loans to portfolio companies are accreted into interest income over the respective terms of the applicable loans. Accretion of discounts or premiums is calculated by the effective interest or straight-line method, as applicable, as of the purchase date and adjusted only for material amendments or prepayments. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment penalties are included in other fee income and unamortized fees and discounts are recorded as interest income and are non-recurring in nature. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $154,101 and $514,416, respectively, of prepayment penalties and unamortized discounts upon prepayment were

recorded as investment income. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $102,899 and $729,521, respectively, of prepayment penalties and unamortized discounts upon prepayment were recorded as interest income.

Structuring fees and similar fees are recognized as income as earned, usually when received. Structuring fees, excess deal deposits, net profits interests and overriding royalty interests are included in other fee income.

Management reviews all debt investments that become 90 days or more past due on principal or interest or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected for possible placement on non-accrual status. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a debt investment is placed on non-accrual status. However, capitalized PIK interest will not be reversed when a debt investment is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual debt investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual debt investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current, although management may make exceptions to this general rule if the debt investment has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had four debt investments on non-accrual status comprised of CareerBuilder, LLC Term Loan B3, Klein Hersh, LLC Senior Subordinated Note, Techniplas Foreign Holdco LP Exit Term Loan, and Techniplas Foreign Holdco LP Term Loan, which collectively represented 1.11% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had five debt investments on non-accrual status comprised of American Nuts Holdings, LLC Term Loan B, American Teleconferencing Services, Ltd. (d/b/a Premiere Global Services, Inc.) - Revolver, CareerBuilder, LLC Term Loan B3, Klein Hersh, LLC Senior Subordinated Note and Sandvine Corporation Term Loan, which collectively represented 3.64% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value.

Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are determined by calculating the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investments, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. Realized gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated using the specific identification method. The Company reports changes in fair value of investments as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The Company holds debt investments in its portfolio that contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest provision. PIK interest, which represents contractually deferred interest added to the investment balance that is generally due at maturity, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. PIK interest is not accrued if the Company does not expect the issuer to be able to pay all principal and interest when due. The Company earned PIK interest of $340,359 and $1,123,511, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company earned PIK interest of $1,880,707 and $3,281,551, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

The Company may hold equity investments in its portfolio that contain a PIK dividend provision. PIK dividends, which represent contractual dividend payments added to the investment balance, are recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had one preferred equity investment, Fusion Connect, Inc. – Series A Preferred, on non-accrual status, which represented 3.29% of the Company’s portfolio at fair value. The Company earned PIK dividends of $0 and $452,742, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company earned PIK dividends of $212,979 and $615,400, respectively, during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

c. Paid In Capital

The Company records the proceeds from the sale of its common stock to common stock and additional paid-in capital, net of commissions and marketing support fees.

d. Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations per Share

The net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations per share is calculated based upon the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the reporting period.

e. Distributions

Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the declaration date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend or distribution is determined by the Company’s board of directors each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalf of the Company’s stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Company’s board of directors authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash distribution, then the Company’s stockholders who have not “opted out” of the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution.

f. Cash and Restricted Cash

Cash and restricted cash consist of bank demand deposits. The Company deposits its cash in financial institutions and, at times, such balance may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. All of the Company’s cash deposits are held at what management believes to be large established high credit quality financial institutions and management believes that the risk of loss associated with any uninsured balances is remote. The Company has restrictions on the uses of the cash held by SPV, LLC based on the terms of the relevant financing arrangement. For more information on the Company’s financing arrangements and borrowings, see Note 5.

g. Due from the Sale of 1888 Industrial Services, LLC

During the year ended June 30, 2024, the Company completed the sale of its investments in 1888 Industrial Services, LLC resulting in $2.5 million in proceeds. As of September 30, 2025, a portion of these proceeds is included in Short-term receivable in the amount of $352,308 on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

h. Deferred Offering Costs

Deferred offering costs consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offer and sale of the Company’s common stock and bonds, including legal, accounting, printing fees, and other related expenses, as well as costs incurred in connection with the filing of a shelf registration statement. These costs are capitalized when incurred and recognized as a reduction of offering proceeds when the offering is completed.

i. Investment Transactions and Expenses

The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis, which is the date when the Company assumes the risks for gains and losses related to that instrument. Purchases of loans, including delayed draw term loans and revolving credit facilities, are recorded on a fully committed basis.

Expenses are accrued as incurred.

Deferred debt issuance costs and deferred financing costs, incurred in connection with the Company’s financing arrangements and borrowings, are amortized using the straight-line method which approximates the effective interest method over the life of the debt.

j. Investment Valuation

The Company applies fair value accounting to all of its financial instruments in accordance with the 1940 Act and ASC Topic 820 — Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company has categorized its investments and financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy as discussed in Note 4. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity specific measure. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon a sale of an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset that (a) are independent of us, (b) are knowledgeable, having a reasonable understanding about the asset based on all available information (including information that might be obtained through due diligence efforts that are usual and customary), (c) are able to transact for the asset, and (d) are willing to transact for the asset or liability (that is, they are motivated but not forced or otherwise compelled to do so).

Securities that are traded on securities exchanges (including such securities traded in the after-hours market) are valued on the basis of the closing price on the valuation date (if such prices are available). Securities that are traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the closing price on the primary securities exchange on which such securities are traded on the valuation date (or if reported on the consolidated tape, then their last sales price on the consolidated tape). Listed options for which the last sales price falls between

the last “bid” and “ask” prices for such options are valued at their last sales price on the date of the valuation on the primary securities exchange on which such options are traded. Options for which the last sales price on the valuation date does not fall between the last “bid” and “ask” prices are valued at the average of the last “bid” and “ask” prices for such options on that date. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The Company held no Level 1 investments as of September 30, 2025 or December 31, 2024.

Investments that are not traded on securities exchanges but are traded on the over-the-counter markets (such as term loans, notes and warrants) are valued using various techniques, which may consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (when observable) and fundamental data relating to the issuer. These investments are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, or in instances when lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in Level 3.

Investments for which market quotations are not readily available or may be considered unreliable are fair valued, in good faith, using a method determined to be appropriate in the given circumstances. The valuation methods used include the Cost Approach, the Market Approach and the Income Approach. Inputs used in these approaches may include, but are not limited to, interest rate yield curves, credit spreads, recovery rates, comparable company transactions, trading multiples, and volatilities. The valuation method the Company uses may change as changes in the underlying portfolio company dictates, such as moving from the Cost Approach to Market Approach when underlying conditions change at the company. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation in these circumstances, the fair values for the aforementioned investments may differ significantly from values that would have been used had a ready and liquid market for such investments existed or from the amounts that might ultimately be realized, and such differences could be material.

The Adviser seeks to ensure that the Company’s valuation policies and procedures, as approved by the Company’s board of directors, are consistently applied across all investments of the Company. The valuations are continuously monitored and the valuation process for Level 3 investments is completed on a quarterly basis and is designed to subject the valuation of Level 3 investments to an appropriate level of consistency, oversight and review. The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the Adviser, with such valuation taking into account information received from any approved third-party valuation firm that the Company may retain with respect to certain investments. The Adviser’s investment professionals will prepare portfolio company valuations using sources and/or proprietary models depending on the availability of information on the Company’s assets and the type of asset being valued.

Valuation models are typically calibrated upon initial funding and are re-calibrated as necessary upon subsequent material events (including, but not limited to additional financing activity, changes in comparable companies, and recent trades). The preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with senior management of the Adviser. On a periodic basis and at least once annually, one or more third-party independent valuation firm(s) engaged by the Company conduct independent appraisals and review the Adviser’s preliminary valuations and make their own independent assessment. The Valuation Committee of the Company’s board of directors then reviews the preliminary valuations of the Adviser and, as applicable, that of any independent valuation firms. The Valuation Committee discusses the valuations and makes a recommendation to the Company’s board of directors regarding the fair value of each investment in good faith based on the input of the Adviser and the independent valuation firm(s). Upon recommendation by the Valuation Committee and a review of the valuation materials of the Adviser and the third-party independent valuation firm(s), the board of directors of the Company determines, in good faith, the fair value of each investment.

For more information on the classification of the Company’s investments by major categories, see Note 4.

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under U.S. GAAP approximates the carrying amounts presented in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

k. Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and distribute to stockholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of the Company’s “investment company taxable income,” which is generally the Company’s net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses. If the Company continues to qualify as a RIC and continues to satisfy the annual distribution requirement, the Company will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any income that the Company distributes to its stockholders. The Company intends to make distributions in an amount sufficient to maintain RIC status each year and to avoid any federal income taxes on income. The Company will also be subject to nondeductible U.S. federal excise taxes if the Company does not distribute to its stockholders at least 98% of net ordinary income, 98.2% of capital gains, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years for which it paid no U.S. federal income taxes. Additionally, certain of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. At September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024, the Company had no Taxable Subsidiaries. The

Company incurred excise tax expenses (benefits), which are included in the provision for tax expense (benefit) of $60,666 and $371,635, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and $221,655 and $278,561, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

Book and tax basis differences that are permanent differences are reclassified among the Company’s capital accounts, as appropriate at year-end. Additionally, the tax character of distributions is determined in accordance with the Code, which differs from U.S. GAAP. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded distributions of $2.0 million and $5.5 million, respectively. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded distributions of $1.7 million and $6.0 million, respectively. For certain periods, the tax character of a portion of distributions may be return of capital.

U.S. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Company’s policy is to recognize accrued interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions as part of the tax provision.

The Company has analyzed such tax positions and has concluded that no unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded for uncertain tax positions. The tax years ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2022 through present remain subject to examinations by taxing authorities. This conclusion may be subject to review and adjustment at a later date based on factors, including but not limited to, ongoing analysis and changes to laws, regulations, and interpretations thereof.

l. Segment Reporting

In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”), the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Company’s segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Company does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets.

Note 3. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial statements upon adoption.

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740) - Improvements to income tax disclosures, which requires more detailed income tax disclosures, chiefly by providing disaggregated information about the effective tax rate reconciliation and expanded information on income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not anticipate the new standard will have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements. From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standards setting bodies that are adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. The Company believes that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on its financial statements upon adoption.

Note 4. Investments

The Company’s investments, at any time, may include securities and other financial instruments, including, without limitation, corporate and government bonds, convertible securities, collateralized loan obligations, term loans, revolvers and delayed draw facilities, trade claims, equity securities, privately negotiated securities, direct placements, working interests, warrants and investment derivatives (such as credit default swaps, recovery swaps, total return swaps, options, forward contracts, and futures) (all of the foregoing collectively referred to in these financial statements as “investments”).

a. Certain Risk Factors

In the ordinary course of business, the Company manages a variety of risks including market risk, liquidity risk and credit risk. The Company identifies, measures and monitors risk through various control mechanisms, including trading limits and diversifying exposures and activities across a variety of instruments, markets and counterparties.

Market risk is the risk of potential adverse changes to the value of financial instruments because of changes in market conditions, including as a result of changes in the credit quality of a particular issuer, credit spreads, interest rates, and other movements and volatility in security prices or commodities. In particular, the Company may invest in issuers that are experiencing or have experienced financial or business difficulties (including difficulties resulting from the initiation or prospect of significant litigation or bankruptcy

proceedings), which involves significant risks. The Company manages its exposure to market risk through the use of risk management strategies and various analytical monitoring techniques.

With respect to liquidity risk, the Company’s assets may, at any time, include securities and other financial instruments or obligations that are illiquid or thinly traded, making the purchase or sale of such securities and financial instruments at desired prices or in desired quantities difficult. Furthermore, the sale of any such investments may be possible only at substantial discounts, and it may be extremely difficult to value any such investments accurately.

Credit risk is the potential loss the Company may incur from a failure of an issuer to make payments according to the terms of a contract. The Company is subject to credit risk because of its strategy of investing in the debt of leveraged companies and its involvement in derivative instruments. The Company’s exposure to credit risk on its investments is limited to the fair value of the investments. With regard to derivatives, the Company attempts to limit its credit risk by considering its counterparty’s (or its guarantor’s) credit rating.

The Company’s primary investment objective is to maximize total return to stockholders in the form of current income and capital appreciation by investing directly in debt and related equity of privately held middle-market companies to help these companies fund acquisitions, growth or refinancing. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company made investments in new and existing portfolio companies of approximately $24.1 million, to which it was not previously contractually committed to provide financial support. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company made investments in new and existing portfolio companies of approximately $39.9 million, to which it was not previously contractually committed to provide financial support. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company made investments of $4.3 million in companies to which it was committed to provide financial support through the terms of the revolvers and delayed draw term loans. During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company made investments of $0.4 million in companies to which it was committed to provide financial support through the terms of the revolvers and delayed draw term loans. The details of the Company’s investments have been disclosed on the Unaudited Consolidated Schedule of Investments.

c. Derivatives

Derivative contracts include total return swaps and embedded derivatives in the Company’s borrowings. The Company may enter into derivative contracts as part of its investment strategies. On October 28, 2020, the SEC adopted a rule that modifies the conditions by which BDCs can enter into, or “cover” open positions pursuant to, certain derivatives contracts that involve potential future payment obligations (the “Derivatives Rule”). The Derivatives Rule requires a BDC entering into a derivatives contract to develop and implement a derivatives risk management program, to comply with an outer limit on asset coverage ratio based on the VaR (“value-at-risk”) test, and to report its derivative activity to its board of directors on a regular basis. The Derivatives Rule also contains exceptions to these conditions for any fund that limits its exposure to derivatives positions to 10 percent of its net assets. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company held no derivative contracts.

d. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset, or paid to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value and a valuation hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability based upon their transparency. The valuation hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). Classification within the hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value have been classified in the following three categories:

Level 1 – valuation is based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date.

Level 2 – valuation is based on inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as (a) quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; (b) quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, that is, markets in which there are few transactions for the asset or liability, the prices are not current, or price quotations vary substantially either over time or among market makers, or in which little information is released publicly; (c) inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; or (d) inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means.

Level 3 – valuation is based on unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Unobservable inputs are used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available, thereby allowing for situations in which there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date. However, the fair value measurement objective remains the same, that is, an exit price from the perspective of a market participant that holds the asset or owes the liability. Therefore, unobservable inputs reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Unobservable inputs are developed based on the best information available under the circumstances, which might include the Company’s

own data. The Company’s own data used to develop unobservable inputs is adjusted if information is reasonably available without undue cost and effort that indicates that market participants would use different assumptions.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of the market and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

Estimates of fair value for cash and restricted cash are measured using observable, quoted market prices, or Level 1 inputs. All other fair value significant estimates are measured using unobservable inputs, or Level 3 inputs.

The following table summarizes the classifications within the fair value hierarchy of the Company’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value as of September 30, 2025:


	Level 1	Level 2	Level 3	Total

The following tables provide quantitative information regarding the Company’s Level 3 fair value measurements as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. This information presents the significant unobservable inputs that were used in the valuation of each type of investment. These inputs are not representative of the inputs that could have been used in the valuation of any one investment. For example, the highest market yield presented in the table for senior secured debt is appropriate for valuing a specific investment but may not be appropriate for valuing any other investment. Accordingly, the ranges of inputs presented below do not represent uncertainty in, or possible ranges of, fair value measurements of the Company’s Level 3 investments. In addition to the techniques and inputs noted in the tables below, according to our valuation policy we may also use other valuation techniques and methodologies when determining our fair value measurements. The below tables are not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather provide information on the significant unobservable inputs as they relate to the Company’s determination of fair values.


	Fair Value as of September 30, 2025	Valuation Methodology	Unobservable Input(s)	Weighted Average (2)	Range

(2) Weighted by fair value.

Fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 are sensitive to changes in the assumptions or methodology used to determine fair value and such changes could result in a significant increase or decrease in the fair value. Significant increases in illiquidity discounts, PIK discounts and market yields would result in significantly lower fair value measurements. Significant increases in EBITDA multiples or recent transaction values would result in significantly higher fair value measurements.

Note 5. Borrowings

On August 23, 2021, the Company, through SPV LLC entered into a five-year, $115 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Capital One Revolving Financing”) with Capital One, which is secured by collateral consisting primarily of loans in the Company’s investment portfolio. On June 14, 2023, we amended the Capital One Revolving Financing to decrease the facility size from $115 million to $100 million. On January 17, 2024, we amended the Capital One Revolving Financing to (i) extend the maturity date to January 17, 2029, (ii) increase of the applicable interest spreads under the Capital One Revolving Financing and (iii) extend the Scheduled Revolving Period End Date (as defined in Capital One Revolving Financing) to January 17, 2027. The Capital One Revolving Financing, which will expire on January 17, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”), features a three-year reinvestment period and a two-year amortization period.

Effective January 17, 2024, borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing generally bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 3.10%. The default interest rate will be equal to the interest rate then in effect plus 2.00%. The Capital One Revolving Financing required the payment of an upfront fee of 1.125% ($1.3 million) of the available borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing at the closing, and requires the payment of an unused fee of (i) 0.75% annually for any undrawn amounts below 50% of the Capital One Revolving Financing, (ii) 0.50% annually for any undrawn amounts between 50% and 75% of the Capital One Revolving Financing, and (iii) 0.25% annually for any undrawn amounts above 75% of the Capital One Revolving Financing. Borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing are based on a borrowing base. The Capital One Revolving Financing generally requires payment of interest and fees on a quarterly basis. All outstanding principal is due on the Maturity Date. The Capital One Revolving Financing also requires mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon certain events.

On November 19, 2024, we amended the Capital One Revolving Financing to provide for, among other things, a decrease of the applicable interest spreads under the Capital One Revolving Financing from SOFR plus 3.10% to SOFR plus 2.50%, and to make amendments to the concentration limits and other fees, and certain other amendments.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $63.5 million and $58.5 million in borrowings outstanding under the Capital One Revolving Financing, respectively.

Restricted cash (as shown on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities) is held by the trustee of the Capital One Revolving Financing and is restricted to purchases of investments by SPV LLC that must meet certain eligibility criteria identified by the loan, security and investment management agreement governing the Capital One Revolving Financing. As of September 30, 2025, SPV LLC had a notional amount of $167.1 million, which included $157.5 million of the Company’s portfolio investments at fair value, $1.8 million in accrued interest receivable and $7.8 million in cash held by the trustees of the Capital One Revolving Financing. As of December 31, 2024, SPV had a notional amount of $167.7 million, which included $154.7 million of the Company's portfolio

investments at fair value, $1.6 million in accrued interest receivable and $11.3 million in cash held by the trustees of the Capital One Revolving Financing. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the weighted average outstanding debt balance and the weighted average stated interest rate under the Capital One Revolving Financing was $69.9 million and $61.6 million, respectively, and 6.06% and 6.56%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the weighted average outstanding debt balance and the weighted average stated interest rate under the Capital One Revolving Financing was $45.1 million and $53.0 million, respectively, and 8.34% and 8.32%, respectively.

The fair value of the Company’s borrowings is estimated based on the rate at which similar credit facilities or debentures would be priced. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s total borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing, was estimated at $63.5 million and $58.5 million, respectively, which the Company concluded was a Level 3 fair value.

As of September 30, 2025, the carrying amount of the Capital One Revolving Financing was approximately $62.7 million, aggregate principal balance of $63.5 million net with deferred debt issuance costs of approximately $0.8 million.

On March 31, 2021, the Company closed the public offering of $65 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The total net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2026 Notes, after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $1.3 million and estimated offering expenses of approximately $215,000, were approximately $63.1 million.

The 2026 Notes will mature on April 1, 2026, unless previously redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms, and bear interest at a rate of 4.875%. The 2026 Notes are direct unsecured obligations and rank pari passu, which means equal in right of payment, with all outstanding and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company. Because the 2026 Notes are not secured by any of the Company’s assets, they are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s existing and future secured unsubordinated indebtedness (or any indebtedness that is initially unsecured as to which the Company subsequently grants a security interest), to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2026 Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any of the Company’s subsidiaries and financing vehicles, including, without limitation, borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing. The 2026 Notes are obligations exclusively of the Company and not of any of the Company’s subsidiaries. None of the Company’s subsidiaries is a guarantor of the 2026 Notes and the 2026 Notes will not be required to be guaranteed by any subsidiary the Company may acquire or create in the future.

The 2026 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at the Company’s option, upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days written notice by mail prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof, at a redemption price (as determined by the Company) equal to the greater of the following amounts, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption) on the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using the applicable Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points; provided, however, that if the Company redeems any 2026 Notes on or after January 1, 2026 (the date falling three months prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes), the redemption price for the 2026 Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption; provided, further, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a 2026 Note not redeemed to less than $2,000. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2021. The Company may from time to time repurchase 2026 Notes in accordance with the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder.

As of September 30, 2025, the carrying amount of the 2026 Notes was approximately $64.8 million, aggregate principal balance of $65.0 million net with deferred debt issuance costs of $130,000 and unamortized discount of $35,555, at a current yield of 4.93%. As of December 31, 2024, the carrying amount of the 2026 Notes was $64.6 million, aggregate principal balance of $65.0 million net with deferred debt issuance costs of $325,000 and unamortized discount of $88,888, at a current yield of 5.02%. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the fair value of the 2026 Notes was $64.3 million and $63.2 million, respectively. The Company concluded that this was Level 3 fair value under ASC 820.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the weighted average outstanding debt balance and the weighted average stated interest rate for overall debt outstanding, in aggregate was $134.9 million and 5.49%, and $126.6 million and 5.70%, respectively. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the weighted average outstanding debt balance and the weighted average stated interest rate for overall debt outstanding, in aggregate was $110.1 million and 6.29%, and $118.0 million and 6.42%, respectively.

Note 6. Indemnification, Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts that provide a variety of representations and warranties and general indemnifications. Such contracts include those with certain service providers, brokers and trading counterparties. Any exposure to the Company under these arrangements is unknown as it would involve future claims that may be made against the Company; however, based on the Company’s experience, the risk of loss is remote and no such claims are expected to occur. As such, the Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnifications.

The Company’s board of directors declared the following quarterly distributions during the nine months ended September 30, 2025:


Declared Date	Ex-Date	Record Date	Pay Date	Amount per Share	Fiscal Quarter
March 20, 2025	April 24, 2025	April 25, 2025	May 16, 2025	$0.12	1st 2025

August 7, 2025	September 17, 2025	September 18, 2025	October 9, 2025	$0.14	3rd 2025

Loans purchased by the Company may include revolving credit agreements or other financing commitments obligating the Company to advance additional amounts on demand. The Company generally sets aside sufficient liquid assets to cover its unfunded commitments, if any.

Advisory Agreement

The Company is party to the Advisory Agreement with the Adviser. Under the Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay the Adviser a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of two components: a base management fee (the “Base Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”). The Incentive Fee has two components: one based on the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income (the “Income-Based Fee”) and one based on capital gains (the “Capital Gains Fee”).

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Base Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.75% of the Company’s gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage and excluding cash and cash equivalents (such amount, “Gross Assets”).

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, $877,923 and $2,577,693 in Base Management Fees, respectively, were earned by the Adviser, of which $102,658 and $248,827, respectively, was voluntarily waived. As of September 30, 2025, $775,225 of such fees were payable. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, $840,459 and $2,681,973 in Base Management Fees, respectively, were earned by the Adviser, of which $69,578 and $239,908, respectively, was voluntarily waived. As of December 31, 2024, $769,176 of such fees were payable. There is no guarantee that the Adviser will waive Base Management Fees in the future. Any portion of the Base Management Fee waived is not subject to recapture.

The Base Management Fee is calculated based on the average value of the Company’s Gross Assets at the end of the two most recently completed fiscal quarters prior to the quarter for which such fees are being calculated. The Base Management Fee is payable quarterly in arrears and the Base Management Fees for any partial month or quarter will be appropriately pro-rated.

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Income-Based Fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined below) for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, subject to a total return requirement (the “Total Return Requirement”) and deferral of non-cash amounts, and is 20.0% of the amount, if any, by which the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of our net assets attributable to its common stock, for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter, exceeds a 2.0% (which is 8.0% annualized) hurdle rate and a “catch-up”

provision measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter. Under this provision, in any fiscal quarter, the Adviser receives no Income-Based Fee until the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income exceeds the hurdle rate of 2.0%, but then receives, as a “catch-up,” 100% of the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 2.5% (which is 10.0% annualized). The effect of the “catch-up” provision is that, subject to the Total Return Requirement and deferral provisions discussed below, if Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income exceeds 2.5% in any fiscal quarter, the Adviser receives 20.0% of our Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income as if a hurdle rate did not apply.

“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence, managerial assistance and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the fiscal quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the Base Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement and any interest expense and any distributions paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as OID, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that we have not yet received in cash.

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

No Income-Based Fee is payable under the Advisory Agreement except to the extent 20.0% of the cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations over the fiscal quarter for which fees are being calculated and the Lookback Period (as defined below) exceeds the cumulative Incentive Fees accrued and/or paid for the Lookback Period. The “cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations” is the amount, if positive, of the sum of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of the Company for the then current fiscal quarter and the Lookback Period. The “Lookback Period” means (1) through December 31, 2024, the period that commences on the last day of the fiscal quarter in which the Advisory Agreement became effective and ends on the last day of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the fiscal quarter for which the Income-Based Fee is being calculated, and (2) after December 31, 2024, the eleven fiscal quarters immediately preceding the fiscal quarter for which the Income-Based Fee is being calculated.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company wrote off $18,802 and $137,550, respectively, in previously deferred Income-Based Fees and incurred no Income-Based Fees. As of September 30, 2025, $364,405 in incentive fees related to Income-Based Fees incurred by the Company were payable to the Adviser, of which fees of $0 are payable and fees of $364,405 generated from deferred interest (i.e., PIK and certain discount accretion) are not payable until such amounts are received in cash. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company incurred $501,540 and $501,540, respectively, in Income-Based Fees. As of December 31, 2024, $501,955 in incentive fees related to Income-Based Fees incurred by the Company are currently payable to the Adviser, of which fees of $0 are payable and fees of $501,955 generated from deferred interest (i.e., PIK and certain discount accretion) are not payable until such amounts are received in cash. Any voluntary waivers of the incentive fee in no way implies that the Adviser will agree to waive any incentive fee in any future period. Any portion of the incentive fees waived are not subject to recapture.

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Capital Gains Fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), commencing with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, and is equal to 20.0% of our cumulative aggregate realized capital gains from the Commencement Date through the end of that fiscal year, computed net of the Company’s aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and our aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Fees. If such amount is negative, then no Capital Gains Fee will be payable for such year. Additionally, if the Advisory Agreement is terminated as of a date that is not a fiscal year end, the termination date will be treated as though it were a fiscal year end for purposes of calculating and paying the Capital Gains Fee.

As required by U.S. GAAP, we accrue the Capital Gains Fee on unrealized gains. This accrual reflects the Incentive Fees that would be payable to the Adviser if our entire investment portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Adviser is not entitled to an Incentive Fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future. Accordingly, the amount of the accrued Capital Gains Fee at a reporting date may vary from the Capital Gains Fee that is ultimately realized, and the differences could be material.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there was no Capital Gains Fee accrued, earned or payable to the Adviser under the Advisory Agreement.

The Advisory Agreement provides that, absent willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of the Adviser’s duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons and members, and any other person or entity affiliated with it, are entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) arising from the rendering of the Adviser’s services under the Advisory Agreement or otherwise as the Adviser.

Mr. Mauer holds an approximate 17% interest in the Adviser. Investcorp holds an approximate 83% ownership interest in the Adviser. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Company has agreed to pay to the Adviser a Base Management Fee and an Incentive Fee. Mr. Mauer, an interested member of the Company's board of directors, has a direct or indirect pecuniary interest in the Adviser. The Incentive Fee will be computed and paid on income that we may not have yet received in cash at the time of payment. This fee structure may create an incentive for the Adviser to invest in certain types of speculative securities. Additionally, the Company will rely on investment professionals from the Adviser to assist the board of directors with the valuation of the Company’s portfolio investments. The Adviser’s Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee is based on the value of our investments and, therefore, there may be a conflict of interest when personnel of the Adviser are involved in the valuation process for the Company’s portfolio investments.

Administration Agreement

Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Adviser furnishes the Company with office facilities and equipment and provides it with the clerical, bookkeeping, recordkeeping and other administrative services necessary to conduct day-to-day operations. Under the Administration Agreement, the Adviser performs, or oversees the performance of the Company’s required administrative services, which includes, among other things, being responsible for the financial records which it is required to maintain and preparing reports to its stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Adviser assists the Company in determining and publishing its net asset value, oversees the preparation and filing of its tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports and other materials to its stockholders, and generally oversees the payment of its expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to it by others. Under the Administration Agreement, the Adviser also provides managerial assistance on the Company’s behalf to those portfolio companies that have accepted its offer to provide such assistance. In addition, the Adviser may satisfy certain of its obligations to the Company under the Administration Agreement through the services agreement with Investcorp International Inc., an affiliate of Investcorp, including supplying the Company with accounting and back-office professionals upon the request of the Adviser.

The Company reimburses the Administrator or its affiliates for amounts paid or costs borne that properly constitute Company expenses as set forth in the Administration Agreement. Payments under the Administration Agreement equal an amount based upon the Company’s allocable portion (subject to the review of the Company’s board of directors) of the Adviser’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of the Company’s chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. The Company incurred costs of $225,390 and $707,287, respectively, under the Administration Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. The Company incurred costs of $185,906 and $653,680, respectively, under the Administration Agreement for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company recorded an Allocation of Administrative Costs from Adviser Payable of $139,423 and $27,868, respectively, reported within Accrued Expenses and Other Liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities for reimbursement of expenses owed to the Adviser under the Administration Agreement.

Co-investment Exemptive Relief

On July 20, 2021, the SEC issued an order, which superseded a prior order issued on March 19, 2019, granting the Company’s application for exemptive relief to co-invest, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, in certain private placement transactions with other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and any future funds that are advised by the Adviser or its affiliated investment advisers (the “Exemptive Relief”). Under the terms of the Exemptive Relief, in order for the Company to participate in a co-investment transaction a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (each, an “Independent Director”) must conclude that (i) the terms of the proposed transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to the Company and its stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of the Company or its stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (ii) the proposed transaction is consistent with the interests of the Company’s stockholders and is consistent with the Company’s investment objectives and strategies.

License Agreement

The Company has entered into a license agreement with the Adviser under which the Adviser has agreed to grant the Company a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Investcorp.” Under this agreement, the Company has a right to use the “Investcorp” name for so long as the Adviser or one of its affiliates remains the Company’s investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited

license, the Company has no legal right to the “Investcorp” name. This license agreement will remain in effect for so long as the Advisory Agreement with the Adviser is in effect and Investcorp is the majority owner of the Adviser.

Note 8. Directors’ Fees

Each Independent Director receives (i) an annual fee of $75,000, and (ii) $2,500 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending in person or telephonically each regular board of directors meeting and each special telephonic meeting. Each Independent Director also receives $1,000 plus reimbursement of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with each committee meeting attended in person and each telephonic committee meeting. The chairperson of the audit committee receives an additional annual fee of $7,500. The chairperson(s) of the valuation committee, the nominating and corporate governance committee and the compensation committee receives an additional annual fee of $2,500, $2,500 and $2,500, respectively. The Company has obtained directors’ and officers’ liability insurance on behalf of the Company’s directors and officers. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company recorded directors’ fees of $76,500 and $226,500, respectively, of which $0 was payable at September 30, 2025. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, the Company recorded directors’ fees of $94,529 and $243,186, respectively, of which $81,323 was payable at December 31, 2024.

Note 9. Net Change in Net Assets Resulting from Operations Per Share

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis.

The following table sets forth the computation of the weighted average basic and diluted net increase in net assets per share from operations:


	For the three months ended September 30,		For the nine months ended September 30,
Basic and Diluted Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Per Share:	2025	2024	2025	2024
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations	$(1,260,530)	$6,606,629	$511,464	$7,066,223
Weighted average shares of common stock outstanding	14,431,202	14,403,752	14,421,267	14,400,619
Basic/diluted net increase (decrease) in net assets from operations per share	$(0.09)	$0.46	$0.04	$0.49

* Supplemental distribution

The following table reflects, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the sources of the cash dividend distributions that the Company has paid on its common stock during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024:


	Nine months ended September 30,
	2025			2024

		Distribution Amount	Percentage		Distribution Amount	Percentage
Ordinary income and short-term capital gains	$	5,480,721	100%	$	6,048,129	100%
Long-term capital gains		—	—		—	—
Total	$	5,480,721	100%	$	6,048,129	100%

The figures in the above table are estimates based on the Company’s year-to-date activity. The tax status of distributions for a tax year depends on the Company’s total amount of taxable income for the entire year, therefore, the tax status cannot be confirmed until after the end of the tax year. Accordingly, the Company’s distributions for the tax year may be re-characterized later based upon subsequent events. As applicable, the Company reports the actual tax character of its distributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes annually to stockholders on Internal Revenue Service Form 1099-DIV issued after the end of the year. The Company’s Form 10-KT for the Transition Period ended December 31, 2024 included information regarding the actual components and tax treatment of all the Company’s distributions for the fiscal year 2024. Because each stockholder’s tax status is unique, stockholders should consult their tax advisor regarding this distribution notice.

Note 11. Share Transactions

The following table summarizes the total shares issued and repurchased for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024.


	Nine months ended September 30,

The 2025 Stock Repurchase Program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Subject to these restrictions, the Company will selectively pursue opportunities to repurchase shares which are accretive to net asset value per share. No shares were repurchased under the share repurchase program as of September 30, 2025.

Note 12. Financial Highlights

(1)

All per share data activity is calculated based on the weighted average shares outstanding for the relevant period, except net increase (decrease) in net assets from capital share transactions, which is based on the common shares outstanding as of the relevant balance sheet date.

(2)

The per share data for dividends and distributions declared reflects the actual amount of the dividends and distributions declared per share during the period.

(3)

Total returns are historical and are calculated by determining the percentage change in the market value with all dividends and distributions, if any, reinvested. Dividends and distributions are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the company’s dividend reinvestment plan. Total investment return does not reflect sales load.

(4)

Annualized.

(5)

Asset coverage ratio is equal to (i) the sum of (A) net assets at the end of the period and (B) debt outstanding at the end of the period, divided by (ii) total debt outstanding at the end of the period.

(6)

Portfolio turnover rate is calculated using the lesser of year-to-date sales or year-to-date purchases over the average of the invested assets at fair value. Portfolio turnover rates that cover less than a full period are not annualized.

Total return is calculated based on a time-weighted rate of return methodology for the stockholders and is not annualized. Total return is reflected after all investment-related and operating expenses. An individual stockholder’s return may vary from these returns based on the timing of capital transactions. The ratios to average stockholders’ capital are calculated based on the monthly average stockholders’ capital during the period. Credit facility related expenses include interest expense and amortization of deferred debt issuance costs.

Note 13. Other Fee Income

The other fee income consists of structuring fee income, amendment fee income and royalty income. The following tables summarize the Company’s other fee income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024:

Net unrealized investment depreciation	$(11,051,750)	$(8,788,373)

Note 15. Segment Reporting

An operating segment is defined by ASC 280 as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity’s CODM to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The Company’s president and chief executive officer, and the chief financial officer act as the Company’s CODM. The Company represents a single operating segment, as the CODM monitors the operating results of the Company as a whole and the Company’s long-term strategic asset allocation is pre-determined in accordance with the terms of its offering memorandum, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Company’s portfolio managers as a team. The financial information in the form of changes in net assets (i.e. net increase in net assets resulting from operations), which is used by the CODM to make resource allocation decisions for the fund’s single segment and as a key metric in determining the amount of dividends to be distributed to the Company's shareholders, is consistent with that presented within the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 16. Subsequent Events

The Company has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Subsequent to September 30, 2025 and through November 12, 2025, the Company invested a total of $2.5 million, at cost, which included investments in three existing portfolio companies, and received approximately $11.1 million from the repayment of three positions, the sale of one position, and the cancellation of warrants in one position. As of November 12, 2025, the Company had investments in 37 portfolio companies.

On November 10, 2025, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) declared a distribution of $0.12 per share for the quarter ending December 31, 2025 payable in cash on December 12, 2025 to stockholders of record as of December 1, 2025 and a supplemental distribution of $0.02 per share payable on December 12, 2025 to stockholders of record as of December 1, 2025.

On November 10, 2025, the Company entered into a letter of commitment with Investcorp Capital plc (“ICAP”), an Affiliate of the Adviser, to provide, or cause to be provided, capital to the Company in the event the Company is unable to repay any portion of the principal balance of the Company’s 4.875% Notes due 2026. Under the letter of commitment, ICAP is required to provide, or cause to be provided a loan (“ICAP Loan”) to the Company in an amount up to the lesser of (i) the remaining, unredeemed, principal amount of the Notes outstanding on April 1, 2026 and (ii) $65,000,000. In exchange, the Company will pay ICAP a fee in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the upfront fee of 0.50% and (ii) an ongoing fee of 1.00% per annum during the period from November 10, 2025 until April 1, 2026, pro rated for any period of less than one year. The ICAP Loan would bear interest at the rate of SOFR plus 5.50% per year, payable quarterly in arrears. The ICAP Loan would mature on July 1, 2029. The foregoing description of the letter of commitment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the letter of commitment, filed as an exhibit hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

On August 30, 2019, Investcorp Credit Management US LLC (“Investcorp”) acquired an approximate 76% ownership interest in the Adviser through the acquisition of the interests held by Stifel Venture Corp. (“Stifel”) and certain funds managed by Cyrus Capital and through a direct purchase of equity from the Adviser. On August 31, 2023, Investcorp acquired approximately an additional 7% ownership interest in the Adviser. On December 12, 2024, Investcorp assigned its ownership of the Adviser to IVC Credit Management Financing, LLC its parent entity and the entity that manages Investcorp’s US credit management regulated entities. Investcorp and its credit advisory affiliates are a leading global credit investment platform with assets under management of $21.2 billion as of September 30, 2025. Investcorp and its credit advisory affiliates manage funds which invest primarily in senior secured corporate debt issued by mid and large-cap corporations in Western Europe and the United States. The business has a strong track record of consistent performance and growth, employing approximately 50 investment professionals in London and New York. Investcorp is a subsidiary of Investcorp Holdings B.S.C. (“Investcorp Holdings”). Investcorp Holdings and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Investcorp, are referred to as “Investcorp Group”. Investcorp Group is a global provider and manager of alternative investments, offering such investments to its high-net-worth private and institutional clients on a global basis.

In connection with the Investcorp Transaction, on June 26, 2019, our board of directors, including all of the directors who are not “interested persons” of the Company, as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (each, an “Independent Director”), unanimously approved the Advisory Agreement and recommended that the Advisory Agreement be submitted to our stockholders for approval, which our stockholders approved at the Special Meeting of Stockholders held on August 28, 2019.

In addition, on June 26, 2019, we entered into a definitive stock purchase and transaction agreement with Investcorp BDC Holdings Limited (“Investcorp BDC”), an affiliate of Investcorp (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, following the initial closing under the Stock Purchase Agreement on August 30, 2019 (the “Closing”) and prior to the second anniversary of the date of the Closing, Investcorp BDC was required to purchase (i) 680,985 newly issued shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share, at the most recently determined net asset value per share of our common stock at the time of such purchase, as adjusted as necessary to comply with Section 23 of the 1940 Act, and (ii) 680,985 shares of our common stock in open-market or secondary transactions. Investcorp BDC has completed all required purchases under the Stock Purchase Agreement.

At the Closing, we entered into the Advisory Agreement with the Adviser, pursuant to which we have agreed to pay the Adviser a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of two components — the Base Management Fee and the Incentive Fee. The Base Management Fee is equal to 1.75% of our gross assets, payable in arrears on a quarterly basis. The Incentive Fee, which provides the Adviser with a share of the income that it generates for the Company, has two components: the Income-Based Fee and the Capital Gains Fee. The Income-Based Fee is equal to 20.0% of pre-incentive fee net investment income, subject to an annualized hurdle rate of 8.0% with a “catch up” fee for returns between the 8.0% hurdle and 10.0%. The Capital Gains Fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each fiscal year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), commencing with the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, and is equal to 20.0% of the Company’s cumulative aggregate realized capital gains from the Commencement Date through the end of each fiscal year, computed net of the Company’s aggregate cumulative realized capital losses and the Company’s aggregate cumulative unrealized capital depreciation through the end of such year, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Fees.

We have entered into the Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement with the Adviser, pursuant to which the Adviser provides us with investment advisory and the administrative services necessary for our operations. See “Note 7. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information regarding the Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement and the fees and expenses paid or reimbursed by us thereunder.

From time to time, we may form Taxable Subsidiaries to allow the Company to hold equity securities of portfolio companies organized as pass-through entities while continuing to satisfy the requirements applicable to a RIC under the Code. As of each of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had no Taxable Subsidiaries.

We are generally permitted, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of indebtedness and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance.

On July 20, 2021, the SEC issued an order, which superseded a prior order issued on March 19, 2019, granting our application for exemptive relief to co-invest, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, in certain private placement transactions with other funds managed by the Adviser or its affiliates and any future funds that are advised by the Adviser or its affiliated investment advisers (the “Exemptive Relief”). Under the terms of the Exemptive Relief, in order for us to participate in a co-investment transaction a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors must conclude that (i) the terms of the proposed transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our shareholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of us or our shareholders on the part of any person concerned, and (ii) the proposed transaction is consistent with the interests of our shareholders and is consistent with our investment objectives and strategies.

Market Developments

The current inflationary environment and uncertainty as to the probability of, and length and depth of a global recession could affect our portfolio companies. Government spending, government policies and the potential for disruptions in the availability of credit in the United States and elsewhere, in conjunction with other factors, including those described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and in other filings we have made with the SEC, could affect our portfolio companies, our financial condition and our results of operations. We will continue to monitor the evolving market environment. In these circumstances, developments outside our control could require us to adjust our plan of operations and could impact our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future. Despite these factors, we believe we and our portfolio are well positioned to manage the current environment. For additional information, see Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors in our most recently filed Transition Report on Form 10-KT, as well as the risk factors listed in our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

Critical accounting estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ.

Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management’s judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our financial statements. We describe our most significant accounting policies in “Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies” in our consolidated financial statements included in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2024 and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. Management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming the estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. We have identified the valuation of our portfolio investments, including our investment valuation policy (which has been approved by our board of directors), as our critical accounting policy and estimates. The critical accounting policies should be read in conjunction with our risk factors in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the fiscal period ended December 31, 2024 and our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to our consolidated financial statements.

Valuation of portfolio investments

We value our portfolio investments at fair value based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in policies adopted by our board of directors. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset that (a) are independent of us, (b) are knowledgeable, having a reasonable understanding about the asset based on all available information (including information that might be obtained through due diligence efforts that are usual and customary), (c) are able to transact for the asset, and (d) are willing to transact for the asset or liability (that is, they are motivated but not forced or otherwise compelled to do so).

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations unless the quotations are deemed not to represent fair value. We generally obtain market quotations from recognized exchanges, market quotation systems, independent pricing services or one or more broker dealers or market makers.

Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors. Because a readily available market value for many of the investments in our portfolio is often not available, we value many of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors using a consistently applied valuation process in accordance with a documented valuation policy that has been reviewed and approved by our board of directors. Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events may have differing impacts on the market quotations used to value some of our investments than on the fair values of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Market quotations may also be deemed not to represent fair value in certain circumstances where we believe that facts and circumstances applicable to an issuer, a seller or purchaser, or the market for a particular security causes current market quotations not to reflect the fair value of the security. Examples of these events could include cases where a security trades infrequently, causing a quoted purchase or sale price to become stale, where there is a “forced” sale by a distressed seller, where market quotations vary substantially among market makers, or where there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid ask spread.

Those investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued utilizing a market approach, an income approach, or both approaches, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that we may take into account in determining the fair value of our investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

•

our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the members of the Adviser’s investment team responsible for the portfolio investment;

•

preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed by senior management and the Adviser;

•

on a periodic basis, at least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment is reviewed by an independent valuation firm engaged by our board of directors;

•

the valuation committee of our board of directors then reviews these preliminary valuations and makes a recommendation to our board of directors regarding the fair value of each investment; and

•

the board of directors then reviews and discusses these preliminary valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith, based on the input of the Adviser, the independent valuation firm and the valuation committee.

When valuing all of our investments, we strive to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a variety of factors. To the extent the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. As markets change, new types of investments are made, or pricing for certain investments becomes more or less observable, management, with oversight from our board of directors, may refine our valuation methodologies to best reflect the fair value of our investments appropriately.

As of September 30, 2025, our investment portfolio, valued at fair value in accordance with our board of directors-approved valuation policy, represented 93.1% of our total assets, as compared to 92.6% of our total assets as of December 31, 2024.

See Note 2.j “Significant Accounting Policies – Investment Valuation” and Note 4. “Investments” in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in our most recent Transition Report on Form 10-KT and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for more information on our valuation process.

Financing Facility

On August 23, 2021, we, through Investcorp Credit Management BDC SPV, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, entered into a five-year, $115 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Capital One Revolving Financing”) with Capital One, N.A. (“Capital One”), which is secured by collateral consisting primarily of loans in our investment portfolio. On June 14, 2023, we amended the Capital One Revolving Financing to decrease the facility size from $115 million to $100 million. On January 17, 2024, we amended the Capital One Revolving Financing to (i) extend the maturity date to January 17, 2029, (ii) increase the applicable interest spreads under the Capital One Revolving Financing and (iii) extend the Scheduled Revolving Period End Date (as defined in the Capital One Revolving Financing) to January 17, 2027. The Capital One Revolving Financing, which will expire on January 17, 2029 (the “Maturity Date”), features a three-year reinvestment period and a two-year amortization period.

Effective January 17, 2024, borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing generally bear interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus 3.10%. The default interest rate will be equal to the interest rate then in effect plus 2.00%. The Capital One Revolving Financing required the payment of an upfront fee of 1.125% ($1.3 million) of the available borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing at the closing, and requires the payment of an unused fee of (i) 0.75% annually for any undrawn amounts below 50% of the Capital One Revolving Financing, (ii) 0.50% annually for any undrawn amounts between 50% and 75% of the Capital One Revolving Financing, and (iii) 0.25% annually for any undrawn amounts above 75% of the Capital One Revolving Financing. Borrowings under the Capital One Revolving Financing are based on a borrowing base. The Capital One Revolving Financing generally requires payment of interest and fees on a quarterly basis. All outstanding principal is due on the Maturity Date. The Capital One Revolving Financing also requires mandatory prepayment of interest and principal upon certain events.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were $63.5 million and $58.5 million in borrowings outstanding under the Capital One Revolving Financing, respectively.

Notes Due 2026

On March 31, 2021, we closed the public offering of $65.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.875% notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”). The total net proceeds to us from the 2026 Notes after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of approximately $1.3 million and offering expenses of approximately $215,000, were approximately $63.1 million.

The 2026 Notes will mature on April 1, 2026, unless previously redeemed or repurchased in accordance with their terms, and bear interest at a rate of 4.875%. The 2026 Notes are our direct unsecured obligations and rank pari passu, which means equal in right of payment, with all of our outstanding and future unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness. Because the 2026 Notes are not secured by any of our assets, they are effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured indebtedness (including indebtedness that is initially unsecured as to which we subsequently grant a security interest), to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 2026 Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other obligations of any of our existing or future subsidiaries and financing vehicles, including, without limitation, borrowings under the Capital One Revolving

Financing. The 2026 Notes are exclusively our obligations and not of any of our subsidiaries. None of our subsidiaries is a guarantor of the 2026 Notes and the 2026 Notes will not be required to be guaranteed by any subsidiary we may acquire or create in the future.

The 2026 Notes may be redeemed in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option, upon not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days written notice by mail prior to the date fixed for redemption thereof, at a redemption price (as determined by us) equal to the greater of the following amounts, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of accrued and unpaid interest to the date of redemption) on the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined in the 2026 Notes Indenture (as defined below)) plus 50 basis points; provided, however, that if we redeem any 2026 Notes on or after January 1, 2026 (the date falling three months prior to the maturity date of the 2026 Notes), the redemption price for the 2026 Notes will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption; provided, further, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a 2026 Note not redeemed to less than $2,000. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing October 1, 2021. We may from time to time repurchase 2026 Notes in accordance with the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the outstanding principal balance of the 2026 Notes was $65.0 million.

The indenture under which the 2026 Notes are issued (the “2026 Notes Indenture”) contains certain covenants, including covenants requiring us to comply with Section 18(a)(1)(A) as modified by Section 61(a)(2) of 1940 Act, or any successor provisions, to comply with Section 18(a)(1)(B) as modified by Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, or any successor provisions but giving effect to any no-action relief granted by the SEC to another BDC and upon which we may reasonably rely (or to us if we determine to seek such similar no-action or other relief), and to provide financial information to the holders of the 2026 Notes and the trustee if we should no longer be subject to the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are set forth in the 2026 Notes Indenture.

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount we have available to invest as well as the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, as a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Under the relevant SEC rules, the term “eligible portfolio company” includes all private companies, companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange, and certain public companies that have listed their securities on a national securities exchange and have a market capitalization of less than $250 million. In each case, the company must be organized in the United States. As of September 30, 2025, the Company did not hold any non-qualifying assets in its portfolio.

To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. As a RIC, we generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any income we distribute to our stockholders.

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest on the debt we hold. We also generate revenue from royalty income, dividends on our equity interests and capital gains on the sale of warrants and other debt or equity interests that we acquire. Our investments in fixed income instruments generally have an expected maturity of three to five years, although we have no lower or upper constraint on maturity. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable quarterly or semi-annually. Payments of principal of our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt investments and preferred stock investments may defer payments of cash interest or dividends or PIK interest. Any outstanding principal amount of our debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment, origination, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance, consulting fees and other investment related income.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of the Base Management Fee and, depending on our operating results, the Incentive Fee under the Advisory Agreement, as well as the payment of reimbursable expenses to the Adviser for the costs and expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the Administration Agreement, such as our allocable portion of overhead expenses, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of our chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. The Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee compensation under the Advisory Agreement remunerates the Adviser for work in identifying, evaluating, negotiating, closing and monitoring our investments. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including, without limitation, those relating to:

•

our organization and our offering;

•

valuing our assets and calculating our net asset value per share (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firm(s));

•

fees and expenses incurred by the Adviser or payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, in monitoring financial and legal affairs for us and in monitoring our investments and performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies or otherwise relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments;

•

interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments and expenses related to unsuccessful portfolio acquisition efforts;

•

offerings of our common stock and other securities;

•

administration fees and expenses, if any, payable under the Administration Agreement (including our allocable portion of the Adviser’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, equipment and the allocable portion of the cost of our chief compliance officer, chief financial officer and his staffs’ compensation and compensation-related expenses);

•

transfer agent and custody fees and expenses;

•

federal and state registration fees;

•

costs of registration and listing our shares on any securities exchange;

•

federal, state and local taxes;

•

independent directors’ fees and expenses;

•

costs of preparing and filing reports or other documents required by the SEC or other regulators;

•

costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to stockholders including printing costs;

•

costs associated with individual or group stockholders;

•

our allocable portion of the costs and fees associated with any fidelity bond, directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums;

•

direct costs and expenses of administration and operation, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone, copying, secretarial and other staff, independent auditors and outside legal costs; and

•

all other non-investment advisory expenses incurred by us or the Adviser in connection with administering our business.

Portfolio and Investment Activity

Portfolio composition

We invest primarily in middle-market companies in the form of standalone first and second lien loans, unitranche loans and mezzanine loans. We may also invest in unsecured debt, bonds and in the equity of portfolio companies through warrants and other instruments.

As of September 30, 2025, our investment portfolio of $196.1 million (at fair value) consisted of debt and equity investments in 41 portfolio companies, of which 78.32% were first lien investments and 21.68% were equities, warrants and other positions. At September 30, 2025, our average and largest portfolio company investment at fair value was $4.8 million and $13.4 million, respectively.

As of December 31, 2024, our investment portfolio of $191.6 million (at fair value) consisted of debt and equity investments in 43 portfolio companies, of which 81.17% were first lien investments and 18.83% were in equities, warrants and other positions. At December 31, 2024, our average and largest portfolio company investment at fair value was $4.5 million and $15.4 million, respectively.

As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our average total yield of debt and income producing securities weighted by amortized cost (which includes interest income and amortization of fees and discounts) was 9.97% and 10.60% respectively. As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, our average total yield on the total portfolio weighted by amortized cost (which includes interest income and amortization of fees and discounts) was 8.01% and 8.72%, respectively. The weighted average total yield was computed using an internal rate of return calculation of our debt investments based on contractual cash flows, including interest and amortization payments, and, for floating rate investments, the spot SOFR, as applicable, as of September 30, 2025, of all of our debt investments. The weighted average total yield of our debt investments is not the same as a return on investment for our stockholders but, rather, relates to a portion of our investment portfolio and is calculated before payment of all of our fees and expenses, including any sales load paid in connection with an offering of our securities. There can be no assurance that the weighted average total yield will remain at its current level.

We use GICS codes to identify the industry groupings of our portfolio companies. At September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, the industry composition of our portfolio in accordance with the GICS codes at fair value, as a percentage of our total portfolio, was as follows:


	Percentage of Total Portfolio at September 30, 2025	Percentage of Total Portfolio at December 31, 2024
Professional Services	13.71%	14.37%
Insurance	10.38%	7.77%
Containers & Packaging	8.86%	10.52%
IT Services	8.53%	7.14%
Trading Companies & Distributors	8.38%	8.64%
Commercial Services & Supplies	7.78%	6.67%
Diversified Consumer Services	6.79%	7.07%
Specialty Retail	6.00%	7.12%
Food Products	5.95%	4.67%
Software	4.39%	3.72%
Entertainment	4.13%	3.32%
Household Durables	3.85%	4.00%
Health Care Providers & Services	3.06%	3.13%
Interactive Media & Services	2.78%	2.86%
Consumer Staples Distribution & Retail	2.43%	3.02%
Construction & Engineering	1.87%	1.93%
Automobile Components	1.04%	1.57%
Electronic Equipment, Instruments & Components	0.07%	0.92%
Hotels, Restaurants & Leisure	—%	1.56%
Total	100.00%	100.00%

During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, we made investments in two new portfolio companies and seven existing portfolio companies. Investments in new and existing portfolio companies, to which we were not previously contractually committed to provide financial support, totaled approximately $24.1 million. Of these investments, 97.10% consisted of first lien investments and 2.90% were in equity, warrants, and other investments.

During the six months ended December 31, 2024, we made investments in five new portfolio companies and five existing portfolio companies. Investments in new and existing portfolio companies, to which we were not previously contractually committed to provide financial support, totaled approximately $23.0 million. Of these investments, 99.80% consisted of first lien investments and 0.20% were in equity, warrants, and other investments.

At September 30, 2025, 98.5% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates based on indices such as SOFR, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Federal Funds Rate of the Prime Rate (in certain cases, subject to interest rate floors), and 1.5% bore interest at fixed rates. At December 31, 2024, 96.4% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates based on indices such as SOFR, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate (in certain cases, subject to interest rate floors), and 3.6% bore interest at fixed rates.

Our investment portfolio may contain loans that are in the form of lines of credit or revolving credit facilities, which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the terms of the underlying loan agreements. As of September 30, 2025, we had ten investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $5.6 million, and as of December 31, 2024, we had eight investments with aggregate unfunded commitments of $4.6 million. As of September 30, 2025, we had sufficient liquidity (through cash on hand and available borrowings under our Capital One Revolving Financing) to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.

Asset Quality

In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, we use the Adviser’s investment rating system to characterize and monitor the credit profile and expected level of returns on each investment in our portfolio. This investment rating system uses a five-level numeric rating scale. The following is a description of the conditions associated with each investment rating:


Investment Rating 1	Investments that are performing above expectations, and whose risks remain favorable compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment.

Investment Rating 2	Investments that are performing within expectations and whose risks remain neutral compared to the expected risk at the time of the original investment. Generally, all new loans are initially rated 2.

Investment Rating 3	Investments that are performing below expectations and that require closer monitoring, but where no loss of return or principal is expected. Portfolio companies with a rating of 3 may be out of compliance with their financial covenants.

Investment Rating 4	Investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are often in workout. Investments with a rating of 4 will be those for which some loss of return but no loss of principal is expected.

Investment Rating 5	Investments that are performing substantially below expectations and whose risks have increased substantially since the original investment. These investments are almost always in workout. Investments with a rating of 5 will be those for which some loss of return and principal is expected.

If the Adviser determines that an investment is underperforming, or circumstances suggest that the risk associated with a particular investment has significantly increased, the Adviser will increase its monitoring intensity and prepare regular updates for the investment committee, summarizing current operating results and material impending events and suggesting recommended actions. While the investment rating system identifies the relative risk for each investment, the rating alone does not dictate the scope and/or frequency of any monitoring that will be performed. The frequency of the Adviser’s monitoring of an investment will be determined by a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the trends in the financial performance of the portfolio company, the investment structure and the type of collateral securing the investment.

The following table shows the investment rankings of the investments in our portfolio, according to the Adviser’s investment rating system:

Results of Operations

Comparison of the three months ended September 30, 2025 and September 30, 2024

Investment income

Investment income, attributable primarily to interest and fees on our debt investments, for the three months ended September 30, 2025 decreased to $4.4 million from $6.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in interest income due to lower index and interest rates in 2025 compared to 2024, a decrease in PIK interest income primarily related to the recognition of PIK interest income for the period January 2024 to July 2024 for the Klein Hersh, LLC Term Loan - Last Out during the three months ended September 30, 2024 after it was removed from non-accrual status and lower PIK rates, and a decrease in PIK dividend income related to Fusion Connect, Inc. - Series A Preferred.

Expenses, net of waivers

Expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2025 decreased to $3.8 million compared to $4.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in interest expense due to lower index rates in 2025 compared to 2024, a decrease in income-based incentive fees due to write offs of deferred incentive fees in 2025 as a result of restructurings related to our investments in Crafty Apes, American Nuts, and Procera Networks/Sandvine, and a decrease in professional fees due to lower accrued audit and legal fees.

Net investment income

Net investment income before taxes decreased to $0.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 from $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 primarily due to a decrease in interest income due to lower index and interest rates in 2025 compared to 2024, a decrease in PIK interest income primarily related to the recognition of PIK interest income for the period January 2024 to July 2024 for the Klein Hersh, LLC Term Loan - Last Out during the three months ended September 30, 2024 after it was removed from non-accrual status and lower PIK rates, and a decrease in PIK dividend income related to Fusion Connect, Inc. - Series A Preferred, partially offset by a decrease in interest expense due to lower index rates in 2025 compared to 2024, a decrease in income-based incentive fees due to write offs of deferred incentive fees in 2025 as a result of restructurings related to our investments in Crafty Apes, American Nuts, and Procera Networks/Sandvine, and a decrease in professional fees due to lower accrued audit and legal fees.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary liquidity needs include interest and principal repayments under the Capital One Revolving Financing, interest payments on the 2026 Notes, our unfunded loan commitments (if any), investments in portfolio companies, dividend distributions to our stockholders and operating expenses. We believe that our current cash on hand and our anticipated cash flows from operations, including from contractual monthly portfolio company payments and prepayments, will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations.

This “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section should be read in conjunction with “Market Developments” above and the risk factors referenced in our most recent Transition Report on Form 10-KT.

Cash flows

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, our cash balance decreased by $0.5 million. During that period, $0.4 million in net cash was used in operating activities, primarily for investments of $28.4 million in portfolio companies, offset by proceeds from repayments and sales of investments in portfolio companies of $25.1 million. During that same period, $0.1 million in net cash was used in financing activities, primarily from borrowings of $18.5 million under the Capital One Revolving Financing, repayments of $13.5 million under the Capital One Revolving Financing, and distributions of $5.1 million to our stockholders.

Capital resources

As of September 30, 2025, we had $3.9 million of cash as well as $7.8 million in restricted cash and $36.5 million of capacity under the Capital One Revolving Financing. As of September 30, 2025, we had $128.5 million of senior securities outstanding at par value and our asset coverage ratio based on par value was 156.6%. We intend to generate additional cash primarily from future offerings of equity and/or debt securities, future borrowings or debt issuances, as well as cash flows from operations, including income earned from investments in our portfolio companies and, to a lesser extent, from the temporary investment of cash in U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less.

As discussed below in further detail, we have elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code. To maintain our RIC status, we generally must distribute substantially all of our net taxable income to stockholders in the form of dividends. Our net taxable income does not necessarily equal our net income as calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Asset Coverage Requirements

On May 2, 2018, our board of directors, including a “required majority” (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of the board of directors, approved the modified asset coverage requirements set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act. As a result, effective May 2, 2019, our applicable minimum asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act was decreased to 150% from 200%. Thus, we are permitted under the 1940 Act, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of debt and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance. As of September 30, 2025, our asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 156.6%.

Regulated Investment Company Status and Distributions

We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. If we continue to qualify as a RIC for a taxable year, we will not be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on our investment company taxable income or realized net capital gains, to the extent that such taxable income or gains are distributed, or deemed to be distributed, to stockholders on a timely basis.

Taxable income generally differs from net income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation until realized. Dividends declared and paid by us in a year may differ from taxable income for that year as such dividends may include the distribution of current year taxable income or the distribution of prior year taxable income carried forward into and distributed in the current year. Distributions also may include returns of capital.

To continue to qualify for RIC tax treatment, we must, among other things, distribute to our stockholders, with respect to each taxable year, at least 90% of our investment company net taxable income (i.e., our net ordinary income and our realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any). We will also be subject to a federal excise tax, based on distributive requirements of our taxable income on a calendar year basis.

We intend to distribute to our stockholders between 90% and 100% of our annual taxable income (which includes our taxable interest and fee income). However, the covenants contained in the Capital One Revolving Financing and any other borrowing or financing arrangement we or our subsidiaries may have may prohibit us from making distributions to our stockholders, and, as a result, could hinder our ability to satisfy the distribution requirement. In addition, we may retain for investment some or all of our net taxable capital gains (i.e., realized net long-term capital gains in excess of realized net short-term capital losses) and treat such amounts as deemed distributions to our stockholders. If we do this, our stockholders will be treated as if they received actual distributions of the capital gains we retained and then reinvested the net after-tax proceeds in our common stock. Our stockholders also may be eligible to claim tax credits (or, in certain circumstances, tax refunds) equal to their allocable share of the tax we paid on the capital gains deemed

distributed to them. To the extent our taxable earnings for a fiscal taxable year fall below the total amount of our dividends for that fiscal year, a portion of those dividend distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage test for borrowings applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in the agreements governing our borrowing or financial arrangements. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions or distributions at a particular level.

In accordance with certain applicable U.S. Department of Treasury (“Treasury”) regulations and a revenue procedure issued by the Internal Revenue Service, a RIC may treat a distribution of its own stock as fulfilling its RIC distribution requirements if each stockholder elects to receive his or her entire distribution in either cash or stock of the RIC, subject to a limitation that the aggregate amount of cash to be distributed to all stockholders must be at least 20% of the aggregate declared distribution. If too many stockholders elect to receive cash, each stockholder electing to receive cash must receive a pro rata amount of cash (with the balance of the distribution paid in stock). In no event will any stockholder, electing to receive cash, receive less than 20% of his or her entire distribution in cash. If these and certain other requirements are met, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the amount of the dividend paid in stock will be equal to the amount of cash that could have been received instead of stock. We have no current intention of paying dividends in shares of our stock in accordance with these Treasury regulations or private letter rulings.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We may be a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. As of September 30, 2025, our off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $5.6 million in unfunded commitments to six of our portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2024, our off-balance arrangements consisted of $4.6 million in unfunded commitments to six of our portfolio companies. We maintain sufficient liquidity (through cash on hand and available borrowings under our Capital One Revolving Financing) to fund such unfunded loan commitments should the need arise.

Recent Developments

The Company has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

Generally, we believe higher yielding assets such as those in our investment portfolio do not necessarily follow a linear interest rate relationship and are less sensitive in price-to-interest rate changes than many other debt investments. Our investments in fixed-rate assets are generally exposed to changes in value due to interest rate fluctuations, and our floating-rate assets are generally exposed to cash-flow variability from fluctuation in rates. At September 30, 2025, 98.5% of our debt investments bore interest based on floating rates, such as SOFR, the Euro Interbank Offered Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. The interest rates on such investments generally reset by reference to the current market index after one to three months.

Consequently, our net interest income (interest income less interest expense) is exposed to risks related to interest-rate fluctuations. Variable-rate instruments subject to a floor generally reset periodically to the applicable floor and, in the case of investments in our portfolio, quarterly to a floor based on SOFR, only if the index exceeds the floor. As of September 30, 2025, 100.0% of our floating-rate portfolio was subject to interest-rate floors set below the current applicable rate or have no floor. Under these loans, we do not benefit from increases in interest rates until such rates exceed the floor and thereafter benefit from market rates above any such floor. In addition, our interest expense will be affected by changes in the published interest rates in connection with the Capital One Revolving Financing to the extent it goes above the floor; however, our 2026 Notes bear interest at a fixed rate. As of September 30, 2025, our floating rate borrowings totaled $63.5 million in principal amount, which represented 49.4% of our outstanding debt.

Based on our investment portfolio as of September 30, 2025, with certain interest rate floors and our financing arrangements at September 30, 2025, a 1.00% increase in interest rates would increase our net interest income by approximately 10.64% and a 2.00% increase in interest rates would increase our net interest income by approximately 21.27%.

Although management believes that this analysis is indicative of our existing sensitivity as of September 30, 2025 to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for changes in the credit markets, the size, credit quality or composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments, including borrowing, that could affect the net increase in net assets resulting from operations or net income. It also does not adjust for the effect of the time lag between a change in the relevant interest rate index and the rate adjustment under the applicable loans or borrowings. Accordingly, we can offer no assurances that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis included herein.

Because it is our intention to hold loans to maturity, the fluctuating relative value of these loans that may occur due to changes in interest rates may have an impact on unrealized gains and losses during quarterly reporting periods. Based on our assessment of the interest rate risk, as of September 30, 2025, we had no hedging transactions in place as we deemed the risk acceptable, and we did not believe it was necessary to mitigate this risk at that time.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2025 (the end of the period covered by this report), our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Our management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and our management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. The design of disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and that management is required to apply judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs.

Based on such evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2025, our disclosure controls and procedures were designed at a reasonable assurance level and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management did not identify any change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

Neither we, the Adviser, nor our subsidiaries, nor any of our respective property, are currently subject to any material legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our businesses. We, the Adviser, and our subsidiaries may from time to time, however, be involved in litigation arising out of our operations in the normal course of business or otherwise, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. Furthermore, third parties may seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these matters will materially affect our financial condition or results of operations. There can be no assurance whether any current or future legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations in any future reporting period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider the risks referenced below and all other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our interim financial statements and the related notes thereto, before making a decision to purchase our securities. Any such risks and uncertainties are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or operating results, as well as the market price of our securities.

There have been no material changes during the six months ended June 30, 2025 to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Transition Report on Form 10-KT for the Transition Period ended December 31, 2024 (filed with the SEC on March 25, 2025). If any of such changes or risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the value of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we issued 0 shares of common stock under our dividend reinvestment plan.
