Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The Company’s functional currency is the United States dollar and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to Regulation S-X. The Company is treated as an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Company and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-K and Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, the consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments and reclassifications consisting solely of normal accruals that are necessary for the fair presentation of financial results as of and for the periods presented. The Company consolidates all entities in which it holds a controlling financial interest. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Use of Estimates

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that may affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. The consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that in the opinion of management are necessary for the fair statement of the Company’s results of the period presented. Although management believes that the estimates and assumptions are reasonable, changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ materially.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and may include highly liquid investments (e.g., money market funds, U.S. Treasury notes, and similar type instruments) with original maturities of three months or less. The Company deposits its cash and cash equivalents with highly rated banking corporations and, at times, cash deposits may exceed the insured limits under applicable law. Cash equivalents held by the Company are deemed to be a Level 1 asset per ASC 820 Fair Value hierarchy, as defined below. Restricted cash and cash equivalents consists of deposits and cash collateral held at U.S. Bank N.A. related to the Company’s credit facilities.

Investment Transactions

Investment Transactions

Loan originations are recorded on the date of the binding commitment. Investments purchased on a secondary market are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are recorded using the specific identification method as the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized, and include investments written off during the period, net of recoveries. The net change in unrealized gains or losses primarily reflects the change in investment fair values as of the last day of the reporting period and also includes the reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses with respect to investments realized during the period.

Investment Valuation

Investment Valuation

The Company applies Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820), as amended, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. ASC 820 determines fair value to be the price that would be received for an investment in a current sale, which assumes an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Market participants are defined as buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market (which may be a hypothetical market) that are independent, knowledgeable, and willing and able to transact. In accordance with ASC 820, the Company considers its principal market to be the market that has the greatest volume and level of activity. ASC 820 specifies a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the level of observability of inputs used in the determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

Level 1—Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Level 2—Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3—Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement.

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at those market quotations. To validate market quotations, the Adviser utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of the quotations. With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, or for which market quotations are deemed not reflective of the fair value, the Adviser, as the Board’s valuation designee, determines the fair value of the investments in good faith, based on, among other things, the fair valuation recommendations from investment professionals, the oversight of the Company’s Audit Committee and independent third-party valuation firms.

The Adviser, as the valuation designee, undertakes a multi-step valuation process under the supervision of the Board, which includes, among other procedures, the following:

Each investment is initially valued by the investment professionals responsible for monitoring that investment.
The Adviser has established pricing and valuation committees, which are responsible for reviewing and approving the fair valuation recommendations from the investment professionals.
The valuations of certain portfolio investments are independently corroborated by third-party valuation firms based on certain criteria including investment size and risk profile.
Final valuation determinations and supporting materials are provided to the Board quarterly as part of the Board’s oversight of the Adviser as the valuation designee.

Investments in investment companies are valued at fair value. Fair values are generally determined utilizing the net asset value (“NAV”) supplied by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company, which is net of management and incentive fees or

allocations charged by the investment company and is in accordance with the “practical expedient”, as defined by ASC 820. NAVs received by, or on behalf of, management of each investment company are based on the fair value of the investment company’s underlying investments in accordance with policies established by management of each investment company, as described in each of their financial statements and offering memorandum. Investments which are valued using NAV as a practical expedient are excluded from the above hierarchy.

The Company applies the valuation policy approved by the Board that is consistent with ASC 820. Consistent with the valuation policy, the Adviser, in its capacity as the Board’s valuation designee, evaluates the source of inputs, including any markets in which its investments are trading (or any markets in which securities with similar attributes are trading), in determining fair value. When a security is valued based on prices provided by reputable dealers or pricing services (that is, broker quotes), the Company subjects those prices to various criteria in making the determination as to whether a particular investment would qualify for classification as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. For example, the Company reviews pricing methodologies provided by dealers or pricing services in order to determine if observable market information is being used, versus unobservable inputs. Some additional factors considered include the number of prices obtained as well as an assessment as to their quality. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the period in which the transfers occur.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of such 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 may ultimately be realized. Further, such investments are generally less liquid than publicly traded securities and may be subject to contractual and other restrictions on resale. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, it could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different from the unrealized gains or losses reflected herein.

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt Issuance Costs

The Company records costs related to the issuance of debt obligations as deferred financing costs. These costs are amortized over the life of the related debt instrument using the straight-line method. See Note 6 “Debt” for details.

Interest and Dividend Income Recognition

Interest and Dividend Income Recognition

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the amortization of purchase discounts and premiums. Discounts and premiums to par value are accreted or amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion and amortization of discounts and premiums, if any. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.

Dividend income from common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Dividend income from preferred equity securities is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Each distribution received from an equity investment is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital to the stockholders. Generally, the Company will not record distributions from equity investments as dividend income unless there is sufficient current or accumulated earnings prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital to stockholders are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.

Certain investments have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal or cost basis of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest income, as applicable. 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. Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual status.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a 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 determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had no investments on non-accrual status.

Other Income

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, agency, underwriting and arranger fees associated with the Company’s investment activities. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered.

Organization Expenses

Organization expenses include, among other things, the cost of incorporating the Company and the cost of legal services and other fees pertaining to the Company’s organization. Organization expenses were incurred by the Adviser until the commencement of the Offering. Any organization expenses incurred by the Company, including reimbursements to the Adviser, are expensed as incurred. Upon commencement of its Offering on August 1, 2024, the Company recognized $1,544 of organization expenses previously incurred by the Adviser on behalf of the Company. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the period from May 5, 2023 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2023, the Company incurred $0, $1,544 and $0 of organization expenses, respectively. The Company’s reimbursement of organization expenses paid on its behalf by the Adviser will be in accordance with the terms of the Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (as defined below).

Offering Expenses

Offering Expenses

The Company’s offering expenses include, among other things, legal fees, registration fees and other costs pertaining to the preparation of the Company’s registration statement (and any amendments or supplements thereto) relating to the Offering and associated marketing materials. Offering expenses were incurred by the Adviser until the commencement of the Offering. Upon commencement of its Offering on August 1, 2024, the Company recognized $3,538 of offering expenses previously incurred by the Adviser on behalf of the Company. Any offering expenses incurred by the Company, including reimbursements to the Adviser, are recorded as deferred offering costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and subsequently amortized to expenses on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations over 12 months. The Company’s reimbursement of offering expenses paid on its behalf will be in accordance with the terms of the Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement.

As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company had $366 and $2,202 of offering expenses, respectively, capitalized on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 and the period from May 5, 2023 (Commencement of Operations) through December 31, 2023, the Company amortized $2,731, $1,521 and $0 of offering expenses, respectively.

Income Taxes

Income Taxes

The Company elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act. The Company also intends to qualify annually as a RIC under the Code. So long as the Company maintains its status as a RIC, it will generally not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income or excise taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its stockholders as dividends. As a result, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Company represents obligations of the Company’s stockholders and will not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company.

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. The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC 740 - Income Taxes (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. The Company intends to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from corporate-level income taxes.

The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code, pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes. As of December 31, 2025 the Company is subject to potential examination by U.S. federal tax authorities and state tax authorities for returns filed since the Company’s inception in 2023.

In order for the Company not to be subject to federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its net capital gains for the current one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (iii) any undistributed ordinary income and net capital gains from preceding years. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If the Company chooses to do so, this generally would increase expenses and reduce the amount available to be distributed to stockholders. The Company accrues excise tax on estimated undistributed taxable income as required on a quarterly basis. See Note 10 “Income Taxes” for details.

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses

Allocation of Income, Expenses, Gains and Losses

Income, expenses (other than those attributable to a specific class), gains and losses are allocated to each class of shares based upon the aggregate NAV of that class in relation to the aggregate NAV of the Company. Expenses that are specific to a class of shares are allocated to such class directly.

Distributions

Distributions

To the extent that the Company has taxable income available, the Company intends to make monthly distributions to its stockholders. Distributions to stockholders 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 tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other factors as the Board may deem relevant from time to time. Although the gross distribution per share is generally equivalent for each share class, the net distribution for each share class is reduced for any class specific expenses, including stockholder servicing and/or distribution fees, if any.

The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan pursuant to which stockholders will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s same class of common stock to which the distribution relates unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash.

Segment Reporting

Segment Reporting

Since its commencement, the Company has operated and been managed as a single reportable segment deriving returns mainly in the form of interest income, dividend income and other fees from the investments made in pursuit of its single stated investment objective. The accounting policies of the Company are consistent with those described in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) is represented by an executive committee comprised of a chief executive officer, a chief financial officer and other executive officers of the Company. The CODM considers net investment income, leverage and increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations in deciding how to deploy capital and/or make distributions to stockholders. Detailed financial information for the Company is disclosed within these financial statements with total assets and liabilities disclosed on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities, investments held on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, results of operations and significant segment expenses on the Consolidated Statements of Operations and other information about the Company’s performance, including total return, portfolio turnover and ratios within the Financial Highlights in Note 9.

New Accounting Standards

New Accounting Standards

In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU No. 2023-09”). ASU No. 2023-09 requires additional disaggregated disclosures on the entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation and additional details on income taxes paid. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective on a prospective basis, with the option for retrospective application, for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 and early adoption is permitted. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Adviser has analyzed the Company’s income taxes paid and has determined no additional disclosures are required.
