Fair Value Measurements

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Company discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 investments) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation (Level 3 investments). The guidance establishes three levels of the fair value hierarchy as follows:

Level 1 Financial assets and liabilities whose values reflect unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.

Level 2 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based upon pricing inputs, including certain broker dealer quotes that are generally those other than exchange quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.

Level 3 Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based on pricing inputs that are unobservable for the investment and include situations where (i) there is minimal, if any, market activity for the investment, or (ii) the inputs used in the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation.

On December 14, 2023, the Board appointed the Advisor as the Companys valuation designee in accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. As the valuation designee, the Advisor determines fair values of the Companys investments pursuant to a valuation policy approved by the Board and pursuant to a consistently applied valuation process. Inputs are used in applying the various valuation techniques and broadly refer to the assumptions that market participants use to make valuation decisions, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may include price information, volatility statistics, specific and broad credit data, liquidity statistics and other factors. A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant, individually or in the aggregate, to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes “observable” requires significant judgment by the Advisor. The Advisor considers observable data to be that market data which is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Advisor’s perceived risk of that instrument.

The valuation of investments classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy is prepared on a quarterly basis and is subject to oversight and review. Each valuation is reviewed and approved by the Valuation & Allocation Committee which consists of senior members of the Advisor, including investment professionals and representatives from legal, compliance and finance. In connection with this process, valuation models are updated by the valuation team based on historical and projected financial information, observable market data, market liquidity and other factors and reviewed by the investment professionals. Valuation results are assessed in light of industry trends, general economic and market conditions and factors specific to each investment. The Advisor’s valuation team intends to engage third-party valuation firms to perform independent valuation reviews of certain modeled Level 3 valuations where there is significant management judgment or estimation. These reviews are generally performed twice annually, including one review at year end. The Advisor’s Valuation & Allocation Committee is ultimately responsible for coordinating and implementing the Company’s valuation policies, guidelines and processes on behalf of the Company.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments in debt investments are discount rates and transaction prices. Significant increases (decreases) in discount rates in isolation would result in significant decreases (increases) in fair value measurement. Significant increases (decreases) in transaction prices in isolation would result in significant increases (decreases) in fair value measurement.
