Overview

 

We were incorporated on July 5, 2023 under the laws of the State of Delaware. We were initially formed with the name Muzinich Direct Lending Income Fund, Inc., which we changed to Muzinich Corporate Lending Income Fund, Inc. on August 25, 2023. We are structured as an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). We have elected to be treated, qualify, and intend to continue to qualify annually as a RIC under subchapter M of the Code for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As such, we are required to comply with various regulatory requirements, such as the requirement to invest at least 70% of our assets in “qualifying assets,” source of income limitations, asset diversification requirements, and the requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of our taxable income and tax-exempt interest.

 

As of June 30, 2026, we had capital commitments from investors in the amount of $99,500,000. As of June 30, 2026, we had equity capital in the amount of $100,052,700. As of June 30, 2025, we had equity capital in the amount of $94,500,000. See “Equity Activity” under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” below for further details. We anticipate raising additional equity capital for investment purposes through drawdowns in respect of capital commitments made by investors pursuant to private offerings (“Private Offerings”) of our Common Stock.

     
Risk Factors [Table Text Block]

Item 1A. Risk Factors

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

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (filed with the SEC on March 27, 2026), which could materially affect our business, financial condition or operating results.

     
Effects of Leverage [Text Block]

The use of leverage involves significant risks. In addition to the volatility risks discussed above, certain trading practices and transactions, which may include, among others, reverse repurchase agreements and the use of when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment transactions, may be considered “borrowings” or involve leverage, and thus are also subject to 1940 Act restrictions. Short-term credits necessary for the settlement of securities transactions and arrangements with respect to securities lending will not be considered “borrowings” for these purposes. Practices and investments that may involve leverage but are not considered to be borrowings are not subject to the asset coverage ratio requirement. These investments may include certain instruments that have embedded leverage, which may increase the risk of loss from such investments, but are not considered to be borrowings.

We may borrow money to purchase assets in order to comply with certain regulatory requirements for RICs, including diversification requirements.

The amount of leverage that we employ will depend on our Adviser’s and the Board’s assessment of market conditions and other factors at the time of any proposed borrowing, and there can be no assurance that we will use leverage or that our leveraging strategy will be successful during any period in which it is employed.
