Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Note 3—Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Fair value is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes and ranks the inputs to valuation techniques used in measuring investments at fair value. The hierarchy classifies the inputs used in measuring fair value into three levels as follows:

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2—Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset and liability or can be corroborated with observable market data for substantially the entire contractual term of the asset or liability.
Level 3—Unobservable inputs that reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in the pricing of the asset or liability and are consequently not based on market activity, but are instead derived from particular valuation techniques.

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the above hierarchy requires significant judgment and factors specific to the asset or liability. In instances where the determination of the fair value measurement is based on inputs from different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the entire fair value measurement falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The Fund evaluates its hierarchy disclosures each quarter and depending on various factors, it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter.

Determination of fair values involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, the notes to the consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations on the consolidated financial statements.

The following table presents fair value measurements of investments and cash equivalents, by major class, as of March 31, 2026, according to the fair value hierarchy.

Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.
(b)
Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding inputs as of a period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the period end.

(a)
Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.
(b)
Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding inputs as of a period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at the period end.

There were no significant changes in valuation approach or technique as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Level 3 inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments that are included in this category include investments in privately held entities where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

The income and market approaches were used in the determination of fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of March 31, 2026. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach are the discount rate or market yield used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which include both future principal and interest payments and any other end of term fees, as applicable. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates are factors such as risk of default, interest rate risk, and changes in credit quality. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach are based on market comparable transactions and market multiples of publicly traded comparable companies.

As of March 31, 2026, the Fund had one portfolio investment on a non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2025, the Fund had one portfolio investment on a non-accrual status. Refer to Note 2—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies for additional details regarding the Fund's non-accrual policy.

The following table shows the amortized cost and fair value of the Fund's performing and non-accrual investments as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025.
