CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial known and unknown risks and uncertainties. Undue reliance should not be placed on such statements. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates and projections about Diameter Credit Company (the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our”), our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs, and our assumptions. Words such as “anticipates”, “expects”, “intends”, “plans”, “will”, “may”, “continue”, “believes”, “seeks”, “estimates”, “would”, “could”, “should”, “targets”, “projects”, and variations of these words and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from, including, without limitation, those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements.

In addition to factors previously identified elsewhere in the reports and other documents that the Company has filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) the following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements or historical performance:

•

our future operating results;

•

our business prospects and the prospects of the companies in which we may invest;

•

the impact of the investments that we expect to make;

•

our ability to raise sufficient capital to execute our investment strategy;

•

the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;

•

our current and expected financing arrangements and investments;

•

changes in the general interest rate environment;

•

ongoing conflicts between Russian and Ukraine and in the Middle East and related responses may have a material adverse impact on us and our portfolio companies;

•

uncertainty surrounding the financial and political stability of the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and China;

•

uncertainty surrounding global financial stability;

•

the adequacy of our cash resources, financing sources and working capital;

•

the timing and amount of cash flows, distributions and dividends, if any, from our portfolio companies;

•

our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;

•

actual and potential conflicts of interest with Diameter, the Adviser and its affiliates, and its senior investment team;

•

the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its effect on the industries in which we may invest;

•

our use of financial leverage;

•

the ability of the Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments;

•

the ability of the Adviser or its affiliates to attract and retain highly talented professionals;

•

our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a business development company (“BDC”) and as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Code”);

•

the impact on our business of the Dodd-Frank Act and the rules and regulations issued thereunder;

•

the effect of changes to tax legislation and our tax position;

•

the tax status of the enterprises in which we may invest;

•

changes in laws and regulations, changes in political, economic or industry conditions, and changes in the interest rate environment or other conditions affecting the financial and capital markets;

•

an economic downturn and the time period required for robust economic recovery therefrom could (i) impair our portfolio companies’ results of operations and financial condition for its duration, which could lead to the loss of some or all of our investments in those portfolio companies and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition; (ii) disproportionately impact the companies in which we have invested and others that we intend to target for investment, potentially causing us to experience a decrease in investment opportunities and diminished demand for capital from these companies; and (iii) impact availability and pricing of our financing;

•

an inability to access the capital markets or additional sources of liquidity could impair our ability to raise capital and our investment activities;

•

interest rate volatility could adversely affect our results, particularly given that we use leverage as part of our investment strategy;

•

currency fluctuations could adversely affect the results of our investments in foreign companies, particularly to the extent that we receive payments denominated in foreign currency rather than U.S. dollars;

•

inflation could negatively impact our business, including our ability to access the debt markets on favorable terms, or could negatively impact our portfolio companies;

•

risks associated with possible disruption in our or our portfolio companies’ operations due to wars and other forms of conflict, terrorist acts, security operations and catastrophic events such as fires, floods, earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes and global health epidemics; and

•

the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify elsewhere in our filings with the SEC that we make from time to time.

Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, some of those assumptions are based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this report. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law.

(1)

The terms “the Company” “we” “us” and “our” mean Diameter Credit Company unless the context specifically requires otherwise. The securities in which the Company has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may therefore be deemed to be "restricted securities" under the Securities Act. These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

(2)

Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), which generally resets periodically. For each loan, we have indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2025. Variable rate loans typically include an interest reference rate floor feature.

(3)

Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Trustees (the "Board" and the members thereof, each, a "Trustee" and collectively, the "Trustees"). Unless otherwise indicated by endnote 9 below, all of our investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC Topic 820"), such investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 5 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

(4)

These debt investments are not pledged as collateral under the Company's Revolving Credit Facilities (as defined below) or Repurchase Obligations (as defined below). Any other debt investments listed above are pledged as collateral under our Revolving Credit Facilities or Repurchase Obligations and are not available to satisfy the other creditors of the Company.

(5)

Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion, although the investment may be subject to unused commitment fees. Negative cost and fair value results from unamortized fees, which are capitalized to the investment cost or fair market value adjustments. See below for more information on the Company’s unfunded commitments (all commitments are first lien, unless otherwise noted): r

The securities in which the Company has invested were acquired in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may therefore be deemed to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act. These securities may be resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act.

(2)

Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which generally resets periodically. For each loan, we have indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2024. Variable rate loans typically include an interest reference rate floor feature.

(3)

Fair value is determined by or under the direction of our Board of Trustees (the “Board” and the members thereof, each, a “Trustee” and collectively, the “Trustees”). Unless otherwise indicated by endnote 9 below, all of our investments are valued using significant unobservable inputs. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC Topic 820”), such investments are classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. See Note 5 within the accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

(Unaudited)

Note 1. Organization

In this report, the terms the “Company”, “we”, “us”, and “our” mean Diameter Credit Company and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise. Diameter Credit Company is a Delaware statutory trust formed on February 24, 2022. The Company is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that was formed primarily to lend to, and selectively invest in, middle-market companies in the United States. The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. In addition, for tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Code”). The Company is externally managed by Diameter Principal Finance LLC (the “Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company and an affiliate of Diameter Capital Partners LP (“Diameter”). Both the Adviser and Diameter are investment advisers that are registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). On November 29, 2023, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Diameter Credit Company Holdings LLC ("DCC Holdings I"), a Delaware limited liability company. On February 28, 2024, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Diameter Credit Company Holdings II LLC (“DCC Holdings II”), a Delaware limited liability company. On March 8, 2024, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DCC Master Investments LLC (“DCC Master”), a Delaware limited liability company. On September 16, 2024, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DCC Master Investments II LLC (“DCC Master II”), a Delaware limited liability company. On October 3, 2024, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DCC Master Investments III LLC (“DCC Master III”), a Delaware limited liability company. On November 25, 2024, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, DCC Master Investments IV LLC (“DCC Master IV”), a Delaware limited liability company. The Company commenced operations on December 20, 2023, in connection with the issuance of 500 shares of the Company’s 12.0% Series A cumulative preferred shares, par value $0.001 per share (“Series A Preferred Shares”). No income was earned and no expenses were incurred by the Company prior to the Company’s commencement of operations.

The Company is conducting a private offering (the “Private Offering”) of its Common Shares of beneficial interest, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Shares”) to accredited investors, as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Common Shares will be offered for subscription continuously throughout the initial closing period and may be offered from time to time thereafter. The initial closing (the “Initial Closing”) for the acceptance of Subscription Agreements (defined below) occurred on December 21, 2023. Subsequent closings may occur at the beginning of any calendar quarter (or such other times as may be determined by the Adviser in its sole discretion) until (and including) the 12-month anniversary date of the Initial Closing, which may be extended for two (2) additional six-month periods by the Adviser. The Adviser has elected to extend the initial Private Offering period by an additional twelve-months and subsequent closings may now occur until (and including) December 21, 2025. Each investor in the Private Offering will make a capital commitment (a “Capital Commitment”) to purchase Common Shares pursuant to a Subscription Agreement entered into with the Company. Investors will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase the Company’s Common Shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitment on an as-needed basis each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice to the investors.

Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), and include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. In the opinion of management, all adjustments are normal and recurring and considered necessary for the fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements have been included. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company is an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies ("ASC Topic 946").

Fiscal Year End

The Company’s fiscal year ends on December 31.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual amounts could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

(Unaudited)

Consolidation

As provided under Regulation S-X and ASC Topic 946, the Company will not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, DCC Holdings I, DCC Holdings II, DCC Master, DCC Master II, DCC Master III, and DCC Master IV, which have been determined to be “investment company subsidiaries”.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments, such as money market funds, with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents, other than investments in money market funds which are recorded using the published net asset value per share, are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. At March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had an investment in the JPMorgan Federal Money Market Fund totaling $22,786 and $3,447, respectively.

Restricted cash and cash equivalents include amounts that are collected and are held by a trustee who has been appointed as custodian of the assets securing certain of the Company’s financing transactions. Restricted cash and cash equivalents are held by a trustee for payment of interest expense and principal on the outstanding borrowings or reinvestment into new assets.

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade date basis.

Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries, and are recorded within net realized gain on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, if any.

The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment values, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period, and is recorded within net unrealized gains on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Valuation of Investments

The Company applies fair value to all of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company has categorized its financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. 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.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market and the current market conditions. To the extent that the 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 by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3.

Any changes to the valuation methodology are reviewed by management and the Company’s Board to confirm that the changes are appropriate. As markets change, new products develop and the pricing for products becomes more or less transparent, the Company will continue to refine its valuation methodologies. See further description of fair value methodology in Note 5 Fair Value Measurements.

Repurchase Obligations

Transactions whereby the Company sells an investment it currently holds with a concurrent agreement to repurchase the same investment at an agreed upon price at a future date are accounted for as secured borrowings in accordance with ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing. The investment subject to the repurchase agreement remains on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, and a secured borrowing is recorded for the future repurchase obligation. The secured borrowing is collateralized by the investment subject to the repurchase agreement. Interest expense associated with the repurchase obligations are reported on the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations within interest expense.

Receivables/Payables From Investments Sold/Purchased

Receivables/payables from investments sold/purchased, if any, consist of amounts receivable to or payable by the Company for transactions that have not settled at the reporting date.

Foreign Currency Transactions

The Company's books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates effective on the last business day of the period; and (ii) purchases and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of such borrowings, income, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.

The Company includes net changes in fair values on investments resulting from foreign exchange rate fluctuations in translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the Consolidated Statements of Operations, if any. Foreign security and currency translations may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.

Revenue Recognition

Interest Income

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security. The amortized cost of debt investments represents the original cost, including loan origination fees and upfront fees received that are deemed to be an adjustment to yield, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income in the current period. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $160 and $675, respectively, in non-recurring interest income (e.g., prepayment premiums and accelerated accretion of upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts).

PIK Interest Income

The Company has loans in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest that is accrued and recorded as interest income at the contractual rates, increases the loan principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. Such income is included in interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest is generally reversed through interest income. To satisfy the Company's annual RIC distribution requirements, this non-cash source of income must be included in determining the amounts to be paid out to shareholders in the form of dividends, even though the Company has not yet collected cash. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $958 and $68, respectively, in PIK interest income.

Dividend Income

Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected.

To the extent a preferred equity contains PIK provisions, PIK dividends, computed at the contractual rate specified in each applicable agreement, are accrued and recorded as dividend income and added to the principal balance of the preferred equity. PIK dividends added to the principal balance are generally collected upon redemption of the equity. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company recorded $1,530 and $0, respectively, in PIK dividend income.

Fee Income

The Company may receive various fees in the ordinary course of business such as structuring, consent, waiver, amendment, syndication and other miscellaneous fees as well as fees for managerial assistance rendered by the Company to the portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned, as services are rendered.

(Unaudited)

Non-Accrual Income

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt whether principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, any original issue discount and/or market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

Organization Expenses and Offering Expenses

Organization and offering costs are borne by the Company and have been advanced from Diameter subject to recoupment. Costs associated with the organization of the Company have been expensed as incurred, subject to the limitation described below. These organization expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs of organizing the Company.

Costs associated with our offering of Common Shares and Series A Preferred Shares of the Company are capitalized as deferred offering costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and are being amortized over a twelve-month period from incurrence. These deferred offering costs consist primarily of legal fees and other costs incurred in connection with our offering of Common Shares and our offering of the Series A Preferred Shares.

Prior to any Liquidity Event (as defined below) that may occur, the Company will not bear more than an amount equal to 0.15% of the aggregate Capital Commitments of the Company for organization and offering costs incurred. If actual organization and offering costs incurred exceed 0.15% of the Company’s total Capital Commitments, the Adviser or its affiliates will bear the excess costs. To the extent that the Company’s Capital Commitments later increase, the Adviser or its affiliates may be reimbursed for past payments of excess organization and offering costs made on the Company’s behalf, provided that the total organization and offering costs borne by the Company do not exceed 0.15% of total Capital Commitments and provided further that the Adviser or its affiliates may not be reimbursed for payment of excess organization and offering expenses that were incurred more than three years prior to the proposed reimbursement.

A “Liquidity Event” may include (i) consummating an Exchange Listing (as defined below) or (ii) commencing a general or limited tender offer program in which each shareholder is given the opportunity to tender Common Shares at a per share price based on the Company’s net asset value or other applicable measurement; provided, however, that the Company will not commence such a tender offer program without the approval of at least a majority of Common Shares outstanding. For these purposes, an “Exchange Listing” is a quotation or listing of the Company’s securities on a national securities exchange (including through an initial public offering) or a sale of all or substantially all of our assets to, or a merger or other liquidity transaction with, an entity in which the Company’s shareholders receive shares of a publicly-traded company which continues to be managed by the Adviser or an affiliate thereof; provided, however, that the Company will not commence such an Exchange Listing unless such Exchange Listing is approved by our Board, including a majority of the members of the Board who are not “interested persons” of the Company or the Adviser as defined in the 1940 Act (“Independent Trustees”).

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company did not incur any organization and offering costs in excess of 0.15% of the Company’s total Capital Commitments. Any sales load, platform fees, servicing fees or similar fees or expenses charged directly to an investor in an offering by a placement agent or similar party will not be considered organization or offering expenses of the Company for purposes of the Company’s cap on organization and offering expenses.

Deferred Financing Costs and Debt Issuance Costs

Deferred financing and debt issuance costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Company’s borrowings. These expenses are deferred and amortized into interest expense over the life of the related debt instrument. Deferred financing costs related to revolving credit facilities are presented separately as an asset on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Income Taxes

The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The Company also has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its shareholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company would represent obligations of the Company’s investors and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

Diameter Credit Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(in thousands, except per share data, percentages and as otherwise noted)

(Unaudited)

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Company must distribute to its shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company can be expected to carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that the Company determines that the estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, the Company accrues excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.

The Company makes certain adjustments to the classification of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences such as non-deductible expenses. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged to additional paid in capital.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred U.S. federal excise tax amounting to $90 and $0, respectively.

Certain of our consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we recorded a net tax expense of $261 and $0, respectively, for these subsidiaries. The income tax expense for our taxable consolidated subsidiaries will vary depending on the level of income from investments held by such taxable subsidiaries during the respective periods and the payable is recorded within accrued expenses and other liabilities.

Distributions

To the extent that the Company has taxable income available, the Company intends to make quarterly distributions to its shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the record date. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of the Board and will depend on the Company’s earnings, financial condition, maintenance of the Company's tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other factors as the Board may deem relevant from time to time.

New Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which is intended to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance, however, the Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

On December 12, 2023, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with the Adviser. Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides investment advisory services to the Company. The Adviser’s services under the Investment Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and the Adviser is free to furnish similar or other services to others so long as its services to the Company are not impaired. The Company is currently the only advisory client of the Adviser. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company will pay the Adviser a fee for its investment advisory and management services consisting of two components—a base management fee (the “Management Fee”) and an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”). The cost of both the Management Fee and the Incentive Fee will be borne by the Company’s shareholders.

Management Fee

The Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Company’s gross assets, payable quarterly in arrears, subject to the fee waiver described below. The Management Fee will be calculated based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during

Diameter Credit Company

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(in thousands, except per share data, percentages and as otherwise noted)

(Unaudited)

the current calendar quarter. Management Fees for any partial quarter will be prorated. For these purposes, “gross assets” means the Company’s total assets determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding undrawn commitments but including assets purchased with borrowed amounts. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, gross assets were measured as the average of gross assets at January 19, 2024, which was the initial date that investors were required to purchase Common Shares (the "Effective Date") and at March 31, 2025 and 2024, adjusted for share issuances during the quarter.

The Adviser agreed to waive all Management Fees in excess of 0.625% of the Company's gross assets until the four-year anniversary of the Effective Date.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Management Fees earned were $4,581 and $386, respectively, $2,291 and $193 of which were waived by the Adviser. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $2,290 and $1,710, respectively, was payable to the Adviser relating to Management Fees.

Incentive Fee

The Incentive Fee consists of two components that are independent of each other, with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not. A portion of the Incentive Fee is based on a percentage of the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income, and a portion is based on a percentage of the Company’s capital gains, each as described below.

Incentive Fee on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income:

The first component of the Incentive Fee, which is payable only following the four-year anniversary of the Effective Date, will be payable at the end of each quarter in arrears, and will equal 100% of the Company’s pre-Incentive Fee net investment income in excess of a 1.75% quarterly “hurdle rate”, the calculation of which is further explained below, until the Adviser has received 15.0% of the Company’s total pre-Incentive Fee net investment income for that quarter and for pre-Incentive Fee net investment income in excess of 2.0588% (8.2352% annualized) quarterly, 15.0% of all remaining pre-Incentive Fee net investment income for that quarter. The 100% “catch-up” provision for pre-Incentive Fee net investment income in excess of the 1.75% “hurdle rate” (7.0% annualized) is intended to provide the Adviser with an Incentive Fee of 15.0% on all pre-Incentive Fee net investment income when that amount equals 2.0588% in a quarter (8.2352% annualized), which is the rate at which catch-up is achieved. Once the hurdle rate is reached and catch-up is achieved, 15.0% of all remaining pre-Incentive Fee net investment income for that quarter is payable to the Adviser.

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income means dividends (including reinvested dividends), interest and fee income accrued by the Company during the calendar quarter, minus the Company’s operating expenses for the quarter (including the Management Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement to the Administrator, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding Series A Preferred Shares, but excluding the Incentive Fee).

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with pay-in-kind interest and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company may not have received in cash. Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital gains or losses.

To determine whether pre-Incentive Fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate, prior to the Exchange Listing, if applicable, the pre-Incentive Fee net investment income will be expressed as a rate of return on an average daily hurdle calculation value. The average daily hurdle calculation value, on any given day, will equal:

•

the Company’s net assets as of the end of the calendar quarter immediately preceding the day; plus

•

the aggregate amount of capital drawn from investors (or reinvested pursuant to the Company’s DRIP (as defined below) from the beginning of the current quarter to the day; minus

•

the aggregate amount of distributions (including share repurchases) made by the Company from the beginning of the current quarter to the day (but only to the extent the distributions were not declared and accounted for on the Company’s books and records in a previous quarter).

Following and in the event of an Exchange Listing, for purposes of determining whether pre-Incentive Fee net investment income exceeds the hurdle rate, pre-Incentive Fee net investment income will be expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, Incentive Fees earned based on pre-Incentive Fee net investment income were $2,612 and $523, respectively, all of which were waived by the Adviser. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no amounts were payable to the Adviser for Incentive Fees based on pre-Incentive Fee net investment income.

Capital Gains Fee:

The second component of the Incentive Fee, which is payable only following the four-year anniversary of the Effective Date, will be payable at the end of each fiscal year in arrears, and will equal 15.0% of the Company’s cumulative realized capital gains from the fiscal quarter following the four-year anniversary of the Effective Date to the end of that fiscal year, less cumulative realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation (the "Capital Gains Fee"). Each year, the fee paid for this component of the Incentive Fee is net of the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Fee for prior periods. The Company accrues, but does not pay, a Capital Gains Fee with respect to unrealized appreciation because a Capital Gains Fee would be owed to the Adviser if the Company were to sell the relevant investments and realize a capital gain.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no Incentive Fees on capital gains were earned. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no amounts were payable to the Adviser for Incentive Fees based on capital gains.

Pre-Incentive Fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the Incentive Fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an Incentive Fee in a quarter in which the Company incurs a loss. For example, if the Company receives pre-Incentive Fee net investment income in excess of the quarterly minimum hurdle rate, the Company will pay the applicable Incentive Fee even if the Company has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses. In addition, because the quarterly minimum hurdle rate is calculated based on the Company’s net assets, decreases in the Company’s net assets due to realized or unrealized capital losses in any given quarter may increase the likelihood that the hurdle rate is reached and therefore the likelihood of the Company paying an Incentive Fee for that quarter. The Company’s net investment income used to calculate this component of the Incentive Fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s gross assets used to calculate the Management Fee because gross assets are total assets (including cash received) before deducting liabilities (such as declared dividend payments).

The Company accrues the Incentive Fee taking into account unrealized gains and losses; however, Section 205(b)(3) of the Advisers Act, as amended, prohibits the Adviser from receiving the payment of fees until those gains are realized, if ever.

The fees that are payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement for any partial period will be appropriately prorated and adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases.

Administration Agreement

On December 12, 2023, the Company entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with an affiliate of the Adviser, Diameter Finance Administration LLC (the “Administrator”). Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides administrative services to the Company. These services include, but are not limited to, providing office space, equipment and office services, maintaining financial records, preparing reports to shareholders and reports filed with the SEC, and managing the payment of expenses and the oversight of the performance of administrative and professional services rendered by others. Certain of these services are reimbursable to the Administrator under the terms of the Administration Agreement. In addition, the Administrator is permitted to delegate its duties under the Administration Agreement to affiliates or third parties, and the Company pays or reimburses the Administrator for certain expenses incurred by any such affiliates or third parties for work done on its behalf.

No person who is an officer, director or employee of the Adviser or its affiliates and who serves as a trustee of the Company receives any compensation from the Company for his or her services as a trustee. However, the Company reimburses the Adviser (or its affiliates) for the allocable portion of the costs of compensation, benefits, and related administrative expenses of the Company’s officers who provide operational and administrative services to the Company pursuant to the Administration Agreement, their respective staffs and other professionals who provide services to the Company (including, in each case, employees of the Adviser or its affiliates). Such reimbursable amounts include the allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser or its affiliates to the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Chief Compliance Officer, and other professionals who provide operational and administrative services to the Company pursuant to the Administration Agreement, including individuals who provide “back office” or “middle office” financial, operational, legal and/or compliance services to the Company. The Company reimburses the Adviser (or its affiliates) for the allocable portion of the compensation paid by the Adviser (or its affiliates) to such individuals based on the percentage of time those individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business and affairs of the Company and in acting on behalf of the Company. The Company may also reimburse the Adviser or its affiliates for the allocable portion of overhead expenses (including rent, office equipment and utilities) attributable thereto. Trustees who are not affiliated with the Adviser receive compensation for their services and reimbursement of expenses incurred to attend meetings.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred $604 and $495, respectively, in expenses under the Administration Agreement, which were recorded in administrative services in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, $1,993 and $1,545, respectively, was unpaid and included in Due to affiliates, subject to amounts waived by the Adviser, in the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

Sub-Administration Agreement

On December 21, 2023, the Administrator entered into a sub-administration agreement (the “Sub-Administration Agreement”) with HedgeServ Corporation (the “Sub-Administrator”) under which the Sub-Administrator provides various accounting and administrative services to the Company. The initial term of the Sub-Administration Agreement is one year from the Effective Date, and, after expiration of the initial term, the Sub-Administration Agreement shall automatically renew for successive six month periods, unless a written notice of non-renewal is delivered prior to 90 days prior to the expiration of the initial term or renewal term.

Expense Support Agreement

On December 12, 2023, the Company entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Adviser. The Adviser may elect to pay certain of the Company’s expenses on the Company’s behalf (each, an “Expense Payment”), provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees of the Company. Any Expense Payment that the Adviser has committed to pay must be paid by the Adviser to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds no later than forty-five days after such commitment was made in writing, and/or offset against amounts due from the Company to the Adviser or its affiliates.

Following any calendar month in which the Company’s Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Company’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in such calendar month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Company shall pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to the Adviser until such time as all Expense Payments made by the Adviser to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Company shall be referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) the Company’s net investment company taxable income (including net short-term capital gains reduced by net long-term capital losses), (ii) the Company’s net capital gains (including the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid to the Company on account of investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).

No Reimbursement Payment for any month will be made if: (1) the “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” (as defined below) declared by the Company at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (2) the Company’s “Operating Expense Ratio” (as defined below) at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, “Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share” means the annualized rate (based on a 365 day year) of regular cash distributions per share exclusive of returns of capital, distribution rate reductions due to distribution and shareholder fees, and declared special dividends or special distributions, if any. The “Operating Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing operating expenses, less organizational and offering expenses, Management Fees and Incentive Fees owed to the Adviser, and interest expense, by the Company’s net assets.

The Company’s obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Company on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent the Adviser has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month.

The following table presents a summary of Expense Payments and Reimbursement Payments since the Company's commencement of operations:


For the Quarter Ended	Expense Payments by Adviser		Reimbursement Payments to Adviser		Unreimbursed Expense Payments
March 31, 2024	$	2,300	$	—	$	2,300

Note 5. Fair Value Measurements

The Company follows ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the assets or liabilities or market and the assets’ or liabilities’ complexity. The Company’s fair value analysis includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Assets and liabilities are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:

Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3: Inputs include significant unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and require significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or a liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company assesses the levels of assets and liabilities at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. The following section describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure different assets and liabilities at fair value and includes the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the assets and liabilities are categorized.

Investments

Level 1 investments are valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued using market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data and quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, based on input of management, the audit committee and independent valuation firms that have been engaged at the direction of the Board to assist in the valuation of each portfolio investment without a readily available market quotation at least once during a trailing twelve-month period under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with all portfolio companies originated on or prior to December 31, 2024 without readily available market quotations subject to review by an independent valuation firm. All investments originated after December 31, 2024 were held at amortized cost due to recency of an open market transaction. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, all money market funds included in cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash were valued using Level 1 inputs.

When determining fair value of Level 3 debt and equity investments, the Company takes into account the following factors, where relevant: the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that affect the price at which similar investments are made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company’s net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). A portfolio company’s EBITDA can include pro forma adjustments for items such as acquisitions, divestitures, or expense reductions. The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. If debt investments are credit impaired, the Company will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, the Company uses a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value. To determine fair value using a yield analysis, the expected cash flows are projected based on the contractual terms of the debt security and discounted back to the measurement date based on a market yield. A market yield is determined based upon an assessment of current and expected market yields for similar investments and risk profiles. The Company considers the current contractual interest rate, the maturity and other terms of the investment relative to risk of the company and the specific investment. A key determinant of risk, among other things, is the leverage through the investment relative to the enterprise value of the portfolio company. As debt investments held by the Company are substantially illiquid with no active transaction market, the Company depends on primary market data, including newly funded transactions, as well as secondary market data with respect to high yield debt instruments and syndicated loans, as inputs in determining the appropriate market yield, as applicable. The fair value of loans with call protection is generally capped at par plus applicable prepayment premium in effect at the measurement date.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that are ultimately received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company could realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded. The Company’s investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.

The significant unobservable input used in the yield analysis is the discount rate based on comparable market yields. Significant increases in discount rates would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value

Debt

The fair value of the Company’s Revolving Credit Facilities, which would be categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximates carrying value as the Revolving Credit Facilities have variable interest based on selected short-term rates.

The fair value of the Company’s Repurchase Obligations, which would be categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, approximates carrying value due to the short maturity of the Repurchase Obligations.

Note 6. Borrowings

In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limitations, the Company is allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% after such borrowing. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company’s asset coverage was 181.0% and 190.2%, respectively.

Citi Revolving Credit Facility

On January 10, 2024, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (as subsequently amended on May 22, 2024 and January 14, 2025, the “Citi Revolving Credit Facility”) with Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto. Borrowings under the Citi Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at Term SOFR plus an interest rate margin of 2.20%. Any amounts borrowed under the Citi Revolving Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on January 11, 2029. The total commitments under the Citi Revolving Credit Facility are $400,000. The Citi Revolving Credit Facility also has an accordion feature, subject to the satisfaction of various conditions, which could bring total commitments under the Citi Revolving

Credit Facility to $500,000. Proceeds from borrowings may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. The Citi Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by DCC Holdings I.

MS Revolving Credit Facility

On April 19, 2024 the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (as subsequently amended on September 11, 2024, October 2, 2024 and January 23, 2025, the “MS Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Citi Revolving Credit Facility, the “Revolving Credit Facilities”), with Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., as administrative agent, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto. Borrowings under the MS Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at Term SOFR plus an interest rate margin of 2.25%. Any amounts borrowed under the MS Revolving Credit Facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable, on April 19, 2029. The total commitments under the MS Revolving Credit Facility are $500,000. Proceeds from borrowings may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. The MS Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by DCC Holdings II.

Repurchase Obligations

In order to finance certain investment transactions, the Company may, from time to time, enter into repurchase agreements with Macquarie Bank Limited (“Macquarie”), whereby the Company sells to Macquarie an investment that it holds and concurrently enters into an agreement to repurchase the same investment at an agreed-upon price at a future date, not to exceed 90-days from the date it was sold (the “Macquarie Transaction”).

In accordance with ASC Topic 860, these Macquarie Transactions meet the criteria for secured borrowings. Accordingly, the investments financed by the Macquarie Transaction remain on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset, and the Company records a liability to reflect its repurchase obligation to Macquarie (the “Repurchase Obligations”). The Repurchase Obligations are secured by the respective investment that are the subject of the repurchase agreements.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding Repurchase Obligations of $144,046 and $177,321, respectively. Interest expense under these Repurchase Obligations is calculated as the product of (i) the difference in days between the trade date and the settlement date, which will occur on or prior to the 90th calendar day following the trade date, of the respective Macquarie Transaction and (ii) the interest rates listed in the table below, as stipulated in the respective repurchase agreements.

Indemnifications

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company may enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnifications or warranties. Future events could occur that lead to the execution of these provisions against the Company. Based on its history and experience, management feels that the likelihood of such an event is remote. Accordingly, the Company has not accrued any liability in conjunction with such indemnifications.

Note 8. Net Assets

Shares Issued

The Company has the authority to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares at $0.001 per share par value. On September 29, 2023 and December 19, 2023, the Adviser purchased $2 and $1,498, respectively, of Common Shares of the Company at a price of $25.00 per common share as the Company’s initial capital. These Common Shares were issued and sold in reliance upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, which provides an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

From time to time the Company enters into subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with investors providing for the private placement of the Company’s shares. Under the terms of the Subscription Agreements, investors are required to fund drawdowns to purchase the Company’s shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitment on an as-needed basis each time the Company delivers a drawdown notice to its investors. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had received Capital Commitments totaling $1,667,480 and $1,639,580 respectively, ($1,002,049 and $1,039,541, respectively, remaining undrawn), of which $32,650 and $32,650, respectively, ($19,264 and $20,570, respectively, remaining undrawn) were from affiliates of the Adviser.

The following table summarizes the total Common Shares issued and proceeds received related to the Company’s drawdowns of Capital Commitments delivered pursuant to the Subscription Agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2025:


Common Share Issuance Date	Number of Common Shares Issued		Aggregate Proceeds

Series A Preferred Shares

On December 20, 2023, the Company received proceeds of $1,380 relating to the issuance of 500 shares of the Company’s Series A Preferred Shares at a price of $3,000 per share, net of offering costs and an administration fee. Each individual investor in the Series A Preferred Shares offering was entitled to purchase only one Series A Preferred Share. Each holder of Series A Preferred Shares is entitled to a liquidation preference of $3,000 per share, or the “Liquidation Value” with respect to distributions, including the payment of dividends and distribution of the Company’s assets upon dissolution, liquidation, or winding up, the Series A Preferred Shares are senior to all other classes and series of Common Shares, and rank on parity with any other class or series of preferred shares, whether such class or series is now existing or is created in the future, to the extent of the aggregate Liquidation Value and all accrued but unpaid dividends and any applicable redemption premium on the Series A Preferred Shares. Dividends on each Series A Preferred Share accrue on a daily basis at the rate of 12.0% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) of the sum of the Liquidation Value thereof plus all accumulated and unpaid dividends thereon, from and including December 20, 2023 to and including the earlier of (1) the date of any liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company or (2) the date on which such Series A Preferred Share is redeemed. Dividends will accrue whether or not they have been authorized or declared, whether or not the Company has earnings, and whether or not there are funds legally available for payment of dividends. Dividends are payable semi-annually.

(Unaudited)

The outstanding Series A Preferred Shares are subject to redemption at any time by notice of such redemption on a date selected by the Company for such redemption, such date being referred to as (the "Redemption Date"). If the Company elects to cause the redemption of the Series A Preferred Shares, each Series A Preferred Share will be redeemed for a price, payable in cash on the Redemption Date, equal to 100% of such share’s Liquidation Value, plus all accrued and unpaid dividends to and including the Redemption Date, plus a redemption premium per share as follows: (1) until the date that is two years from the date of original issuance, $300; and (2) thereafter, no redemption premium. From and after the close of business on the Redemption Date, all dividends on the outstanding Series A Preferred Shares will cease to accrue, such shares will no longer be deemed to be outstanding, and all rights of the holders of such shares (except the right to receive the redemption price for such shares from us) will cease.

The Company classifies the Series A Preferred Shares as temporary equity outside of shareholders’ equity on its accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities due to certain redemption features that are not solely within the Company’s control.

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, no dividends were declared or paid to preferred shareholders by the Company.

Distribution Reinvestment

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), pursuant to which it will reinvest all cash dividends declared by the Board on behalf of its shareholders who do not elect to receive their dividends in cash as provided below. As a result, if the Board and the Company declares, a cash dividend or other distribution, then the Company’s shareholders who have not opted out of its DRIP will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares as described below, rather than receiving the cash dividend or other distribution. Distributions on fractional shares will be credited to each participating shareholder’s account to three decimal places. A participating shareholder will receive an amount of shares equal to the amount of the distribution on that participant’s shares divided by the most recent quarter-end net asset value (“NAV”) per share that is available on the date such distribution was paid (unless the Board determines to use the NAV per share as of another time). Shareholders who receive distributions in the form of shares will generally be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions; however, since their cash distributions will be reinvested, those shareholders will not receive cash with which to pay any applicable taxes. The Company intends to use newly issued shares to implement the plan. Shares issued under the DRIP will not reduce outstanding Capital Commitments.

The following table summarizes the amounts and shares issued to shareholders under the Company's DRIP during the three months ended March 31, 2025:


Payment Date	DRIP Shares Value		DRIP Shares Issued
January 31, 2025	$	1,854		69,821

For the three months ended March 31, 2024, no shares were issued to shareholders under the Company's DRIP.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

(All figures in this item are in thousands except share, per share and other data.)

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report. In addition to historical information, the following discussion and other parts of this quarterly report contain forward-looking information that involves risks, uncertainties and other factors outside of our control. Our actual results may differ significantly from any results expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements due to the factors discussed in "Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q.

Overview and Investment Framework

We are a Delaware statutory trust structured as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we expect to qualify as a RIC annually. We are managed by our Adviser. The Administrator will provide the administrative services necessary for us to operate.

Our investment objective is to generate current income by targeting direct lending and related investments with favorable risk-adjusted returns.

We seek to generate current income primarily by investing in the debt of private, U.S. domiciled, sponsored and non-sponsored middle-market and upper middle-market companies. Some of this debt may be directly originated by us, by which we mean that we will negotiate and structure material terms of the transaction other than just the price. Alternatively, we may participate in transactions where third parties are equally or more involved in the negotiation and structuring with the company, including club deals, or transactions with a bank or advisor acting as an intermediary.

Our core focus on “middle market” companies refers to companies with annual EBITDA between $25 million and $125 million. We refer to companies with annual EBITDA equal to or greater than approximately $125 million as “upper middle-market companies”. By “non-sponsored” companies, we generally mean companies whose equity is substantially owned by the founders or public companies, or companies whose equity is substantially owned by family offices, endowments, or alternative investment funds.

We focus on what we consider to be high quality, performing borrowers in stable or growing industries. Our process prioritizes borrower quality, and capital preservation over yield, to select investments that offer current income. Under normal circumstances, we will invest directly or indirectly at least 80% of our total assets (net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes) in credit instruments (including, but not limited to, loans, bonds and other credit instruments, such as first-lien debt, second-lien debt, mezzanine and unsecured debt) of varying maturities, which we refer to as our 80% policy. The Company’s 80% policy with respect to investments in debt instruments is not fundamental and may be changed by our Board without shareholder approval. Shareholders will be provided with sixty (60) days’ notice in the manner prescribed by the SEC before making any change to this policy.

Key Components of Our Results of Operations

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest income from the debt investments we hold. In addition, we may generate income from capital gains on the sale of investments and various loan origination and other fees. Our debt investments typically have a term of five to eight years and bear interest at floating rates on the basis of a benchmark such as SOFR. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we may receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity may also reflect the proceeds of sales of securities. In some cases, our debt investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest. The principal amount of the debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we generate revenue in the form of prepayment and other fees in connection with transactions. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on debt investments as interest income when earned. Dividend income, if any, is recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts.

In addition, we may generate revenue from various fees in the ordinary course of business such as in the form of commitment, loan origination, structuring, consent, waiver, amendment, syndication, due diligence and other miscellaneous fees as well as fees for providing managerial assistance to our portfolio companies, and consulting fees.

Expenses

Except as specifically provided below, when and to the extent that the investment professionals and staff of the Adviser are engaged in providing investment advisory services to us, the allocable portions of their base compensation, bonus and benefits, routine overhead expenses, and other costs and expenses will be paid for by the Adviser. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations, administration and transactions, including the Management Fees and Incentive Fees that are paid to the Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement. We also bear our allocable portion of the compensation, overhead (including rent, IT assistance, office equipment and utilities) and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement. These administrative expenses include the salaries and expenses of our chief compliance officer, chief financial officer, and their respective staffs, and the salaries and expenses of the investor relations, legal, operations, and other non-investment professionals at the Administrator that perform duties for us.

From time to time, the Adviser, the Administrator or their affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services on our behalf. We will reimburse the Adviser, the Administrator and their affiliates for any such amounts. The Administrator has elected to forgo any reimbursement for rent and other occupancy costs for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024. However, the Administrator may seek reimbursement for such costs in future periods. All of the foregoing expenses will ultimately be borne by our shareholders.

Costs and expenses of the Administrator and the Adviser that are eligible for reimbursement by us will be reasonably allocated on the basis of time spent, assets under management, usage rates, proportionate holdings, a combination thereof or other reasonable methods determined by the Administrator in accordance with policies adopted by the Board.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, no loans in the portfolio were on non-accrual status.

Our Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action with respect to each portfolio company. Our Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:

•

assessment of success of the portfolio company in adhering to its business plan and compliance with covenants;

•

periodic and regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor, to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments;

•

comparisons to other companies in the portfolio company's industry; and

•

review of monthly or quarterly financial statements and financial projections for portfolio companies.

As part of the monitoring process, our Adviser employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, our Adviser rates the credit risk of all investments on a scale of 1 to 5. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may take into account the performance of the portfolio company's business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The rating system is as follows:

Least amount of risk to our initial cost basis. Trends and risk factors are above expectations since time of initial underwriting.

Trends and risk factors are similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination. Portfolio company is performing generally in line with initial underwrite and risk is neutral to favorable.

Portfolio company is performing below expectations, and the risk to the loan has increased since time of origination. Portfolio company could be out of compliance with covenants other than payment defaults. Loan payments are typically not past due.

Portfolio company performance is materially lower than anticipated at initial underwrite, and the risk to the loan is materially higher. Portfolio company is generally out of compliance with covenants. Loan payments could be past due but generally not more than 180 days past due.

Portfolio company is underperforming below expectations substantially. It is anticipated we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a loss relative to our cost basis at exit. Loan payments are significantly delinquent and fair market value will be reduced to the anticipated recovery.

The following table shows the composition of our debt portfolio on the 1 to 5 rating scale:


Rating	March 31, 2025		December 31, 2024
1	$	98,159	$	86,103
2		1,361,958		1,046,153

Net expenses	$	17,819		$	420

Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 was driven by borrowings in our Revolving Credit Facilities and Repurchase Obligations. Management Fees for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were driven by our deployment of capital. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Adviser waived Management Fees of $2,291, and $193 respectively. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Incentive Fees earned related to pre-Incentive Fee net investment income were $2,612 and 523, respectively, all of which was waived by the Adviser. There were no accrued capital gains Incentive Fees based on our cumulative net realized and unrealized appreciation as of each period end. The accrual for any capital gains Incentive Fees under U.S. GAAP in a given period may result in an additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reduction of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. If such cumulative amount is negative, then there is no accrual.

Organization costs and offering costs, if any, include expenses incurred in our initial formation and our Private Offering. Professional fees include legal, rating agencies, audit, tax, valuation, technology and other professional fees incurred related to the management of us. Administrative services represent fees paid to the Administrator for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our executive officers, their respective staff and other non-investment professionals that perform duties for us. Other general and administrative expenses include insurance, filing, research, subscriptions and other costs.

We expect our operating expenses related to our ongoing operations to increase in the next several quarters because of the anticipated growth in the size of our asset base. We expect operating expenses as a percentage of our total assets to decrease during periods of asset growth.

We entered into an Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement with the Adviser. For additional information see Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Income Taxes, Including Excise Taxes

We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to continue to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute to our shareholders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of the sum of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), and net tax-exempt income for that taxable year. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we, among other things, intend to make the requisite distributions to our shareholders, which generally relieve us from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable

income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company incurred U.S. federal excise tax amounting to $90 and $0, respectively.

Net Unrealized Gain

We fair value our portfolio investments quarterly and any changes in fair value are recorded as unrealized gains or losses. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, the net change in unrealized gain on our investment portfolio was $8,766 and $584, respectively.

Net Realized Gain

The realized gains on fully exited and partially exited investments for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024 were $710 and $0, respectively.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

We generate cash from the net proceeds of drawdowns on our Capital Commitments, proceeds from net borrowings on our Revolving Credit Facilities, proceeds from net borrowings on our Repurchase Obligations, and income earned on our debt investments. The primary uses of our cash and cash equivalents are for (i) originating loans and purchases of senior secured debt investments and equity investments, (ii) funding the costs of our operations (including fees paid to the Adviser and expense reimbursements paid to the Administrator), (iii) debt service, repayment and other financing costs of any borrowings and (iv) cash distributions to the holders of our Common Shares. We believe that our cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, together with available capacity under our Revolving Credit Facilities and uncalled Capital Commitments are sufficient to meet our obligations, support our investing activities and enable us to conduct our operations in the near term and in the foreseeable future.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had the Citi Revolving Credit Facility and MS Revolving Credit Facility outstanding, as described in “Borrowings” below. We may from time to time enter into additional credit facilities, increase the size of our existing credit facilities or issue debt securities. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred shares, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred shares, is at least 150%. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an aggregate amount of $853,046 and $674,121, respectively, of senior securities outstanding, our asset coverage ratio was 181.0% and 190.2%, respectively, and our asset coverage per unit was $1,812 and $1,904, respectively. On December 12, 2023, our sole initial shareholder approved the adoption of this 150% threshold pursuant to Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act. As of such date, our initial shareholder was the only holder of our Common Shares and it waived the right to receive repurchase offers pursuant to Section 61(a)(2)(D)(ii) of the 1940 Act. We seek to carefully consider our unfunded commitments for the purpose of planning our ongoing financial leverage. Further, we maintain sufficient borrowing capacity within the 150% asset coverage limitation to cover any outstanding unfunded commitments we are required to fund.

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had $47,175 and $104,380, respectively, in cash and cash equivalents. During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, cash used in operating activities was $285,658 and $163,458, respectively, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments offset by proceeds from principal repayments and net investment income for the period. Cash provided by financing activities was $228,453 and $250,234, respectively, during the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, primarily as a result of proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares and net borrowings on our Revolving Credit Facilities which was partially offset by net repayments on our Repurchase Obligations.

Equity

The following table summarizes the total shares issued and proceeds received related to capital drawdowns delivered pursuant to the Subscription Agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2025:


Common Share Issuance Date	Number of Common Shares Issued		Aggregate Proceeds
February 24, 2025		2,575,953	$	70,392

The following table summarizes the total shares issued and proceeds received related to capital drawdowns delivered pursuant to the Subscription Agreements for the three months ended March 31, 2024:


Common Share Issuance Date	Number of Common Shares Issued		Aggregate Proceeds
January 19, 2024		3,765,200	$	94,130
March 11, 2024		1,015,454		25,946
Total		4,780,654	$	120,076

During the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, we entered into Subscription Agreements with a number of investors, including affiliates of the Adviser, providing for the private placement of our Common Shares. Under the terms of the Subscription Agreements, investors are required to fund drawdowns to purchase our Common Shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitment on an as-needed basis each time we deliver a drawdown notice to our investors. As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had received Capital Commitments totaling $1,667,480 and $1,639,580 ($1,002,049 and $1,039,541 remaining undrawn), respectively, of which $32,650 and $32,650 ($19,264 and $20,570 remaining undrawn), respectively, was from affiliates of the Adviser.

Distributions

We have elected and qualified to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a RIC under subchapter M of the Code. To maintain RIC status, we must distribute (or be treated as distributing) in each taxable year dividends for tax purposes equal to at least 90 percent of the sum of our:

•

investment company taxable income (which is generally our ordinary income plus the excess of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses), determined without regard to the deduction for dividends paid, for such taxable year; and

•

net tax-exempt interest income (which is the excess of our gross tax-exempt interest income over certain disallowed deductions) for such taxable year.

As a RIC, we (but not our shareholders) generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on investment company taxable income and net capital gains that we distribute to our shareholders.

We intend to distribute annually all or substantially all of such income. To the extent that we retain our net capital gains or any investment company taxable income, we generally will be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax. We may choose to retain our net capital gains or any investment company taxable income, and pay the U.S. federal excise tax described below.

Amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax payable by us. To avoid this tax, we must distribute (or be treated as distributing) during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of:

•

98% of our net ordinary income excluding certain ordinary gains or losses for that calendar year;

•

98.2% of our capital gain net income, adjusted for certain ordinary gains and losses, recognized for the twelve-month period ending on October 31 of that calendar year; and

•

100% of any income or gains recognized, but not distributed, in preceding years.

While we intend to distribute any income and capital gains in the manner necessary to minimize imposition of the 4% U.S. federal excise tax, sufficient amounts of our taxable income and capital gains may not be distributed to avoid entirely the imposition of this tax. In that event, we will be liable for this tax only on the amount by which we do not meet the foregoing distribution requirement. We have paid $90 in U.S. federal excise tax related to the 2024 tax year.

We intend to pay quarterly distributions to our shareholders out of assets legally available for distribution. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of our Board and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, maintenance of RIC status, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant from time to time.

To the extent our current taxable earnings for a year fall below the total amount of our distributions for that year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our shareholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the source of a distribution to our shareholders may be the original capital invested by the shareholder rather than our income or gains. Shareholders should read any written disclosure carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or gains.

We have adopted an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common shareholders. As a result, if we declare a cash dividend or other distribution, each shareholder that has not “opted out” of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our Common Shares rather than receiving cash dividends. Shareholders

who receive distributions in the form of Common Shares will be subject to the same U.S. federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

Borrowings

As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, we had an aggregate principal amount of $851,546 and $672,621, respectively, of net borrowings outstanding.

For additional information on our debt obligations see “Note 6. Borrowings” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Related-Party Transactions

We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:

•

the Investment Advisory Agreement;

•

the Administration Agreement; and

•

Expense Support Agreement.

In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we, our Adviser and certain of our Adviser’s affiliates have been granted exemptive relief by the SEC to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates in a manner consistent with our investment objectives, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. See “Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us 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. Our critical accounting estimates should be read in connection with our risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 12, 2025, and elsewhere in our filings with the SEC. There have been no material changes in our critical accounting estimates.

We apply fair value to all of our financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, we have categorized our financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. 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, our own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market and the current market conditions. To the extent that the 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 by us in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3.

Any changes to the valuation methodology are reviewed by management and our Board to confirm that the changes are appropriate. As markets change, new products develop and the pricing for products becomes more or less transparent, we will continue to refine its valuation methodologies. See further description of fair value methodology in “Note 5. Fair Value Measurements” in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Uncertainty with respect to the economic conditions has introduced significant volatility in the financial markets, and the effect of the volatility could materially impact our market risks, including those listed below. We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk and interest rate risk.

Valuation Risk

We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, primarily in illiquid debt and equity securities of private companies. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by

our Board, based on, among other things, the input of the Adviser, our audit committee and independent third-party valuation firms engaged at the direction of the Board, and in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. We intend to fund portions of our investments with borrowings, and at such time, our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. Accordingly, we cannot assure shareholders that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

As of March 31, 2025, 95.8% of our debt investments based on fair value in our portfolio were at floating rates. Based on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of March 31, 2025 the following table shows the annualized impact on net income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors and ceilings for floating rate instruments assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure):


	March 31, 2025
	Interest Income			Interest Expense			Net Income (1)
Up 200 basis points	$	38,122		$	17,031		$	21,091
Up 100 basis points		19,061			8,515			10,545
Down 100 basis points		(19,061	)		(8,515	)		(10,545	)
Down 200 basis points		(38,122	)		(17,031	)		(21,091	)

(1)

Excludes the impact of Incentive Fees. See Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions in the notes to our unaudited consolidated financial statements.
