Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

On November 2, 2026, Monroe Capital Enhanced Corporate Lending Fund (the “Fund”), InspereX LLC, Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC, and U.S. Bank National Association (collectively, the “Parties”) entered into an agreement (the “Termination Agreement”) to terminate that certain Escrow Agreement, dated December 11, 2025, among the Parties (the “Escrow Agreement”), with such termination effective as of the open of business on November 2, 2026.

The Escrow Agreement was previously entered into by the Parties in connection with the Fund’s continuous public offering (the “Public Offering”) of up to $1,000,000,000 of its common shares of beneficial interest (the “Common Shares”), whereby for Class D Common Shares and Class S Common Shares, the Fund intended to take purchase orders for each such class of Common Shares and hold investors’ funds in a non-interest-bearing escrow account until the Fund received purchase orders from at least 100 investors in the applicable class (the “Minimum Shareholder Amount”).

In connection with the closing of the Private Offerings, discussed below, the Fund achieved the Minimum Shareholder Amount for each of the Class D Common Shares and Class S Common Shares without recourse to, or use of, the escrow arrangement established under the Escrow Agreement. In connection with the closing of the Private Offerings, the Fund’s Board of Trustees approved the Termination Agreement.

No funds or other property were ever deposited into the escrow account established under the Escrow Agreement, and all net proceeds from the sale of Common Shares in the Public Offering and the Private Offerings will constitute part of the Fund’s net assets unless otherwise disclosed.

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sale of Equity Securities.

As of November 2, 2026, the Fund issued and sold (1) 110 of its unregistered Class S Common Shares and (2) 110 of its unregistered Class D Common Shares, in each case at a per share price equal to the net asset value per share of the applicable class as of October 31, 2026, to be determined in accordance with the valuation policies and procedures of Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC, the Fund’s investment adviser.

The offer and sale of the Class S Common Shares and Class D Common Shares were made pursuant to purchase agreements entered into by the Fund and each of 110 separate investors and were included with promissory notes each with a principal amount of $1,000 (each a “Note” and collectively the “Notes”). The Fund issued the Class S Common Shares, the Class D Common Shares, and the Notes on November 2, 2026 in private placement transactions (the “Private Offerings”) pursuant to certain exemptions under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the laws of the states and jurisdictions where any offering was made to investors who are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Fund received approximately $152,000 in net proceeds from the Private Offerings.

The aggregate purchase price for each Note was $1,000 per Note, which amount is inclusive of the purchase price of one Class S Common Share or Class D Common Share, as applicable. The Fund will pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 12.00% per annum per Note, payable semi-annually in arrears. The Notes have a 30-year term. Some or all of the Notes may be prepaid by the Fund at any time, in whole or in part, at any time on or following the date on which the Fund has repurchased the Class S Common Share or Class D Common Share, as applicable, purchased by the holder of the Note in connection with the issuance of such Note, provided that (i) the Fund will pay on the date of such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest due on such prepaid principal amount and (ii) if the prepayment occurs prior to the 24-month anniversary of the original issue date of the Notes, the Fund will pay on the date of such prepayment a one-time premium equal to $100 per Note.

The Notes were offered through H&L Equities, LLC (“H&L”), a registered broker-dealer and an affiliate of REIT Funding, LLC (“REIT Funding”). With respect to the Notes, the Fund will pay fees to, and cover certain expenses of, REIT Funding. From the fees paid, REIT Funding will be responsible for paying any brokerage or placement fees to H&L. The Fund will also pay fees to, and cover certain expenses of, REIT Administration, LLC (“REIT Administration”), an affiliate of REIT Funding, for its administrative services related to the Notes. The Fund’s obligation to pay the fees to REIT Administration will end on the date when the Notes have been paid in full and all administrative duties have been completed.

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any Common Shares, Notes or any other securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation, or sale in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation, or sale would be unlawful.

The description above is only a summary of the material features of the Notes and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copies of the Forms of Promissory Note, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto and are incorporated by reference herein.

____________________________________________________

(1) All of Monroe Capital Enhanced Corporate Lending Fund’s (together with its consolidated wholly-owned subsidiaries, the “Fund”) investments are treated as "qualifying assets" under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), unless otherwise noted. All of the Fund’s investments are issued by U.S. portfolio companies unless otherwise noted. As of September 30, 2026 all investments are non-controlled, non-affiliated investments. Non-controlled, non-affiliated investments are defined as investments in which the Fund owns less than 5% of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities and does not have the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company.

(2) The majority of the investments bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR” or “SF”) or Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average ("CORRA" or "CA"), each of which reset daily, monthly, quarterly, or semiannually. For each such investment, the Fund has provided the spread over SOFR or CORRA, as applicable, and the current contractual interest rate in effect at September 30, 2026. Certain investments may be subject to an interest rate floor or rate cap. Certain investments contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provision.

(3) Except as otherwise noted, all of the Fund’s portfolio company investments, which as of September 30, 2026 represented 192.4% of the Fund’s net assets or 94.7% of the Fund’s total assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales.

(4) Except as otherwise noted, because there is no readily available market value for these investments, the fair value of each of these investments is determined in good faith using significant unobservable inputs by the Valuation Designee (as defined in Note 4 in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements). See Note 4 in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the fair value of the Fund’s investments.

(5) Percentages are based on net assets of $109,913 as of September 30, 2026.

(6) The headquarters of this portfolio company is located in Australia.

(7) Represents less than 5% ownership of the portfolio company’s voting securities.

(8) This loan is denominated in Canadian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars as of the valuation date.

(9) This loan is denominated in Australian dollars and is translated into U.S. dollars as of the valuation date.

(10) This investment is treated as a non-qualifying asset under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, the Fund may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Fund’s total assets. As of September 30, 2026, non-qualifying assets totaled 4.8% of the Fund’s total assets (at fair value).

(11) Investments without an interest rate are non-income producing.

(12) Ownership of certain equity investments may occur through a holding company or partnership.

(13) Investment is held by a taxable subsidiary of the Fund. See Note 2 in the accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Fund’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries.

(14) All or a portion of this commitment was unfunded at September 30, 2026. As such, interest is earned only on the funded portion of this commitment.

(15) This delayed draw loan requires that certain financial covenants be met by the portfolio company prior to any fundings by the Fund.

(16) All or a portion of this security was held in MLEND Financing SPV I LLC ("MLEND Financing SPV"), which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund, as collateral for MLEND Financing SPV's senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the "DB Credit Facility") with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch.

(17) As of September 30, 2026, the Fund was party to a subscription agreement with a commitment to fund an additional equity investment of $304.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

Note 1. Organization and Principal Business

Monroe Capital Enhanced Corporate Lending Fund (the “Fund”) is a Delaware statutory trust formed on March 3, 2025. The Fund commenced its initial private offering on July 7, 2025. The Fund is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company which elected on November 20, 2025 (the "BDC Election Date") to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, the Fund has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The Fund had no substantive operating activities prior to November 6, 2025. The Fund’s investment objective is to provide investors with current income and attractive risk-adjusted returns with limited correlation to public markets.

Prior to the BDC Election Date, Monroe Capital Management Advisors, LLC (“MC Management”), a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), served as the Fund’s investment adviser pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the “MC Management Advisory Agreement”) and as the Fund’s administrator (in such capacity, the “Administrator”), pursuant to an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”). In connection with the Fund’s election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, effective as of the BDC Election Date, the MC Management Advisory Agreement was terminated, and the Fund entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) with Monroe Capital BDC Advisors, LLC (“MC Advisors”), pursuant to which MC Advisors serves as the Fund’s investment adviser. Following the BDC Election Date, MC Management continues to serve as the Administrator for the Fund.

The term “Adviser” as used in this report refers (i) to MC Management in its capacity as the Fund’s investment adviser prior to the BDC Election Date and (ii) to MC Advisors in its capacity as the Fund’s investment adviser following the Fund’s entry into the Advisory Agreement on the BDC Election Date.

On May 6, 2025, the Fund received an exemptive order from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), that permits the Fund to issue any multiple classes of its common shares of beneficial interests (the “Common Shares”) with, among others, different ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees (the “Multi-Class Exemptive Relief”). Pursuant to the Multi-Class Exemptive Relief, the Fund offers on a continuous basis up to $1.0 billion of its Common Shares, including Class S shares, Class D shares and Class I shares, pursuant to a continuous public offering (the “Public Offering”) registered with the SEC. The share classes have different ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees. The purchase price per share for each class of Common Shares equals the Fund’s NAV per share, as of the effective date of the monthly share purchase date. The Public Offering is a “best efforts” offering, which means that InspereX LLC, the managing dealer for the Public Offering, will use its best efforts to sell Common Shares, but is not obligated to purchase or sell any specific amount of shares.

On July 7, 2025, Monroe Capital Onshore Holdco LLC (the "Initial Seed Investor"), an affiliate of the Adviser, invested $15 in Class I shares as a seed investment in the Fund (the “Initial Seed Investment”), in connection with which the Initial Seed Investor received an aggregate of 600 Class I shares at $25.00 per share. In addition, on November 6, 2025, another affiliate of the Adviser invested $100,000 in Class I shares (the “Seed Contribution”), in connection with which investor received an aggregate of 3,947,888 Class I shares at $25.33 per share and the Fund commenced investment activities and operations pursuant to an exclusion from the definition of “investment company” in the 1940 Act. As of September 30, 2026, the Fund had not sold any of its Class S or Class D shares. In order to avoid the blind-pool aspects typically associated with the launch of a new fund, the Fund used the proceeds from the Seed Contribution, along with borrowings, to purchase portfolio investments in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives. See Note 5 for additional information on these purchases.

On September 25, 2025, the Fund created a wholly-owned subsidiary, MLEND Financing SPV I LLC ("MLEND Financing SPV"), for purposes of entering into a senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended and/or restated from time to time, the “DB Credit Facility”) with Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch. See Note 6 for additional information on the DB Credit Facility.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Fund have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The accompanying interim consolidated financial statements of the Fund and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10, and 12 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures required by GAAP for the annual reporting of consolidated financial statements are omitted. The Fund has determined it meets the definition of an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 – Financial Services – Investment Companies (“ASC Topic 946”). The Fund’s first annual fiscal period ended on December 31, 2025. As the Fund commenced investment activities and operations on November 6, 2025 and had no net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, comparative consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of changes in net assets, and consolidated statements of cash flows are not presented. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation.

These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes contained in the Fund’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 9, 2026, including the significant accounting policies described in “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” in the Fund’s consolidated financial statements included therein.

As an emerging growth company, the Fund intends to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Fund to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates include the valuation of investments.

Consolidation

As permitted under ASC Topic 946, the Fund will generally not consolidate a portfolio company in which it has invested other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Fund. Accordingly, the Fund consolidated the results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, including MLEND Financing SPV (the "Non-Taxable Subsidiary") and MLEND Holding Company I, LLC, the Fund’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiary (the “Taxable Subsidiary”, and together with the Non-Taxable Subsidiary, the "Subsidiaries"), in its consolidated financial statements. The purpose of the Taxable Subsidiary is to permit the Fund to hold equity investments in portfolio companies that are taxed as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes while complying with the “source of income” requirements contained in the RIC tax provisions of the Code. The Taxable Subsidiary is not consolidated with the Fund for U.S. federal corporate income tax purposes, and the Taxable Subsidiary is subject to U.S. federal corporate income tax on its taxable income. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Fund applies fair value to substantially all of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value, and requires disclosures for fair value measurements, including the categorization of financial instruments into a three-level hierarchy based on the transparency of valuation inputs. See Note 4 for further discussion regarding the fair value measurements and hierarchy.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

ASC Topic 820 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value. The Fund believes that the carrying amounts of its other financial instruments such as cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximate the fair value of such items due to the short maturity of such instruments.

Revenue Recognition

The Fund’s revenue recognition policies are as follows:

Investments and related investment income: Interest and dividend income is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that the Fund expects to collect such amounts. Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual terms of debt and preferred equity investments. Interest is accrued on a daily basis. The Fund records fees on loans based on the determination of whether the fee is considered a yield enhancement or payment for a service. If the fee is considered a yield enhancement associated with a funding of cash on a loan, the fee is generally deferred and recognized into interest income using the effective interest method if captured in the cost basis or using the straight-line method if the loan is unfunded and therefore there is no cost basis. If the fee is not considered a yield enhancement because a service was provided, and the fee is payment for that service, the fee is deemed earned and recorded as other income in the period the service is completed.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies. Each distribution received from limited liability company (“LLC”) and limited partnership (“LP”) investments is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, the Fund will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the applicable distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Fund did not receive return of capital distributions from its equity investments.

The Fund has certain investments in its portfolio that contain a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provision, which represents contractual interest or dividends that are added to the principal balance and recorded as income. The Fund stops accruing PIK interest or PIK dividends when it is determined that PIK interest or PIK dividends are no longer collectible. To maintain RIC tax treatment, and to avoid incurring corporate U.S. federal income tax, substantially all income accrued from PIK provisions must be paid out to shareholders in the form of distributions, even though the Fund has not yet collected the cash.

Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premiums are capitalized and amortized into interest income over the contractual life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Unamortized discounts and loan origination fees totaled $941 and $777 as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively. Upfront loan origination and closing fees received for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $55 and $683, respectively. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt investment, any unamortized premium or discount or loan origination fees are recorded as interest income.

The components of the Fund’s investment income were as follows:


	Three months ended September 30, 2026		Nine months ended September 30, 2026
Interest income	$	4,892	$	14,347
PIK interest income	—		130
Dividend income (1)	25		73
Other income	77		119
Prepayment gain (loss)	26		120
Accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums	49		206
Total investment income	$	5,069	$	14,995

_________________________________________

(1)During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, dividend income includes PIK dividends of $25 and $73, respectively.

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on portfolio investments are calculated based upon the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. Realized gains and losses are recorded within net realized gain (loss) on investments on the consolidated statements of operations. Changes in the fair value of investments from the prior period, as determined through the application of the Fund’s valuation policy, are included within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments on the consolidated statements of operations.

Non-accrual: Debt or preferred equity investments are placed on non-accrual status on a prospective basis when principal, interest or dividend payments become materially past due, or when there is reasonable doubt that principal, interest or dividends will be collected. Additionally, any original issue discount and 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. Non-accrual debt or preferred equity investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal, interest, or dividends are paid, or are expected to be paid, and, in management’s judgment are likely to remain current. To the extent a debt or preferred equity investment is restructured, non-accrual status is reassessed post-restructuring in line with this non-accrual policy. The Fund may make exceptions to this policy and partially record interest if the loan has sufficient collateral value or is in process of collection and there is the expectation of collection of principal and a portion of the contractual interest. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund had no borrowers with a debt or preferred equity investment on non-accrual status.

Distributions

To the extent that the Fund has taxable income available, and subject to approval by the Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board"), the Fund intends to make monthly distributions to its shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the applicable record date. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of the Board and will depend on the Fund's earnings, financial condition, maintenance of the Fund's tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and provisions in the Fund's financing arrangements and such other factors as the Fund's Board may deem relevant from time to time. As a result, the Fund's distribution rates and payment frequency may vary from time to time. Any distribution to shareholders is declared out of assets legally available for distribution. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually.

The determination of the tax attributes for the Fund’s distributions is made annually, based upon its taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Ordinary dividend distributions from a RIC do not qualify for the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income from domestic corporations and qualified foreign corporations, except to the extent that the RIC received the income in the form of qualifying dividends from domestic corporations and qualified foreign corporations. The tax attributes for distributions will generally include both ordinary income and capital gains, but may also include qualified dividends or return of capital.

The Fund has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan (the "DRIP") whereby shareholders (other than those located in specific states or who are clients of selected participating brokers) will have their cash distributions (net of applicable withholding tax) automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same class of Common Shares to which the distribution relates unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. See Note 8 for additional information on the Fund’s distributions and the DRIP.

Segment Reporting

In accordance with ASC Topic 280 – Segment Reporting, the Fund has determined that it has a single reporting segment and operating unit structure. As a result, the Fund’s segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Fund does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets. See Note 12 for additional information on the Fund’s segment accounting policies.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents, including cash denominated in foreign currencies, primarily consists of cash, money market funds and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. The Fund deposits its cash and cash equivalents in a financial institution and, at times, such balances may be in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) insurance limit. The Fund’s deposits are held in high-quality financial institutions. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund held no cash denominated in foreign currencies.

Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents

Restricted cash and cash equivalents includes amounts held within MLEND Financing SPV. Cash and cash equivalents held within MLEND Financing SPV is generally restricted to use for the originations of new investments, the repayment of outstanding debt and the related payment of interest expense and the quarterly release of earnings to the Fund. Restricted cash and cash equivalents consists of cash, money market funds and short-term, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and are subject to credit risk to the extent those balances exceed FDIC limitations. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, restricted cash and cash equivalents consisted of the following:


	September 30, 2026		December 31, 2025
Restricted cash and cash equivalents:
MLEND Financing SPV	$	4,709	$	6,524
Total restricted cash and cash equivalents	$	4,709	$	6,524

Debt Issuance Costs

Debt issuance costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Fund’s borrowings. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund had unamortized debt issuance costs of $1,877 and $2,332, respectively, presented as a direct reduction of the carrying amount of debt on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. These amounts are amortized and included in interest and other debt financing expenses on the consolidated statements of operations over the estimated average life of the borrowings. Amortization of debt issuance costs for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was $152 and $455, respectively.

Organizational and Offering Costs

Organizational costs consist of primarily legal, incorporation and accounting fees incurred in connection with the organization of the Fund. Offering costs consist primarily of legal, printing and other fees and expenses incurred in connection with the offering of Common Shares and the preparation and filing of registration statements and offering materials. Offering costs are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over 12 months.

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Adviser incurred $84 of organizational and offering costs on behalf of the Fund. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, $76 of offering costs was amortized and recognized as expense, which is included in general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2026, the Fund had $8 of deferred offering costs included in other assets on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Organizational and offering costs are subject to the expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”). MC Advisors agreed to advance all of the Fund’s organization and offering expenses on the Fund’s behalf through the date on which the Public Offering commenced and paid for $1,000 of the Fund’s organization and offering expenses on the Fund’s behalf without reimbursement or recoupment. Thereafter, pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, MC Advisors is obligated to advance the Fund’s Operating Expenses (as defined below, which includes organization and offering expenses) to the extent that such expenses exceed 1.00% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund’s average NAV. See Note 5 for additional information on the Expense Support Agreement.

As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund had $1,594 and $1,510, respectively as "Due to Adviser" on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities for the portion of organizational and offering costs not yet reimbursed.

Investments Denominated in Foreign Currency

At each balance sheet date, portfolio company investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars using the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period. Purchases and sales of foreign portfolio company investments, and any income from such investments, are translated into U.S. dollars using the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.

Although the fair values of foreign portfolio company investments and the fluctuation in such fair values are translated into U.S. dollars using the applicable foreign exchange rates described above, the Fund does not isolate the portion of the change in fair value resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from the change in fair value of the underlying investment. All fluctuations in fair value are included in net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments on the Fund’s consolidated statements of operations.

Investments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may involve certain consideration and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

Derivative Instruments

The Fund has entered and may continue to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the Fund’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. In a foreign currency forward contract, the Fund agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another, at a pre-determined price at a future date. Foreign currency forward contracts are marked-to-market based on the difference between the forward rate and the exchange rate at the current period end. Unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts is recorded on the Fund’s consolidated statements of assets and liabilities by counterparty on a net basis.

The Fund does not utilize hedge accounting, and as such, values its foreign currency forward contracts at fair value with the change in unrealized gain or loss recorded in net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts and the realized gain or loss recorded in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts on the Fund’s consolidated statements of operations.

Income Taxes

The Fund elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. As long as the Fund maintains its status as a RIC and makes the requisite distributions to shareholders, it generally will not be subject to U.S. federal corporate-level income taxes on any net ordinary income or capital gains that it timely distributes to shareholders as dividends.

To maintain its qualification as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Fund 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 of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses. In order for the Fund not to be subject to U.S. federal excise taxes, it must distribute annually an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of the amount by which the Fund's capital gain exceeds the Fund's capital loss (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (iii) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which the Fund paid no U.S. federal income tax. The Fund, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year dividends and pay U.S. federal income tax and a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on this income. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 the Fund recorded no net expense on the consolidated statements of operations for U.S. federal excise tax. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund recorded no accrual for U.S. federal excise taxes included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

The Fund’s consolidated Taxable Subsidiary may be subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 the Fund recorded no net tax expenses on the consolidated statements of operations for this subsidiary. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, there were no payables for corporate-level income taxes.

The Fund accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC Topic 740 – Income Taxes (“ASC Topic 740”). ASC Topic 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. It is the Fund’s policy to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in income tax expense. The Fund did not take any material uncertain income tax positions through September 30, 2026. The Fund’s federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.

Subsequent Events

The Fund has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the interim consolidated financial statements were issued. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in this Form 10-Q or would be required to be recognized in the interim consolidated financial statements as of, and for the quarter ended, September 30, 2026, except as disclosed in Note 13.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, within relevant income statement captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning with the first quarter ending March 31, 2028. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. The Fund is currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03; however, the Fund does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Fair Value Measurements

Investments

The Fund values all investments in accordance with ASC Topic 820. ASC Topic 820 requires enhanced disclosures about assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value. As defined in ASC Topic 820, fair value is the price 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. 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.

ASC Topic 820 establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability of inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. Market price observability is affected by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment. Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.

Based on the observability of the inputs used in the valuation techniques, the Fund is required to provide disclosures on fair value measurements according to the fair value hierarchy. The fair value hierarchy ranks the observability of the inputs used to determine fair values. Investments carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

•Level 1 – Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

•Level 2 – Valuations based on inputs other than quoted prices in active markets, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, which are either directly or indirectly observable.

•Level 3 – Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement. This includes 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 may require significant management judgment or estimation.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or 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 Fund’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.

Under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, the Board has designated MC Advisors as the Fund’s valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to perform fair value determinations for investments held by the Fund without readily available market quotations. The Board is responsible for oversight of the Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee has established a valuation committee to determine in good faith the fair value of the Fund’s investments that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available based on input of the Valuation Designee’s management and personnel and independent valuation firms which are engaged at the direction of the Valuation Designee’s valuation committee to assist in the valuation of certain portfolio investments lacking a readily available market quotation. The Valuation Designee’s valuation committee determines fair values pursuant to a valuation policy approved by the Board and pursuant to a consistently applied valuation process.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Valuation Designee undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

•the quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially evaluated and rated by the investment professionals of the Valuation Designee responsible for the credit monitoring of the portfolio investment;

Table of Contents

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

•the Valuation Designee engages independent valuation firms to conduct independent appraisals of a selection of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Valuation Designee will consult with an independent valuation firm relative to each portfolio company at least once in every calendar year, but the independent appraisals are generally received at least quarterly for each investment;

•to the extent an independent valuation firm is not engaged to conduct an investment appraisal on an investment for which market quotations are not readily available in a particular quarter, the investment will be valued by the Valuation Designee;

•preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with the valuation committee of the Valuation Designee;

•the valuation conclusions are approved by the valuation committee of the Valuation Designee; and

•a report prepared by the Valuation Designee is presented to the Board quarterly to enable the Board to perform its oversight duties of the valuation process and the Valuation Designee.

The accompanying consolidated schedules of investments held by the Fund consist primarily of private debt instruments (“Level 3 debt”). The Valuation Designee generally uses the income approach to determine fair value for Level 3 debt where market quotations are not readily available, as long as it is appropriate. If there is deterioration in credit quality or a debt investment is in workout status, the Valuation Designee may consider other factors in determining the fair value, including the value attributable to the debt investment from the enterprise value of the portfolio company or the proceeds that would be received in a liquidation analysis. This liquidation analysis may include probability weighting of alternative outcomes. The Valuation Designee generally considers the Fund’s Level 3 debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance or is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing Level 3 debt, the Valuation Designee considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a Level 3 debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Valuation Designee will evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the Level 3 debt instrument.

Under the income approach, discounted cash flow models are utilized to determine the present value of the future cash flow streams of the Fund's debt investments, based on future interest and principal payments as set forth in the associated loan agreements. In determining fair value under the income approach, the Valuation Designee also considers the following factors: applicable market yields and leverage levels, recent comparable transactions, public-market equivalents, credit indices, credit quality, prepayment penalties, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that generally may affect the price at which similar investments may be made. This includes calibration analysis from the initial closing of the investment and a reassessment of the inputs to the valuation model as market conditions and individual portfolio company performance change. The Fund's active portfolio monitoring process assists in identifying any material changes in underlying portfolio company financial performance that may not yet be readily apparent through the financial performance reporting by the portfolio company, as those results may be received from the portfolio company on a lag from the fair value measurement date.

Under the market approach, the enterprise value methodology is typically utilized to determine the fair value of an investment. There is no one methodology to estimate enterprise value and, in fact, for any one portfolio company, enterprise value is generally best expressed as a range of values, from which the Valuation Designee derives a single estimate of enterprise value. In estimating the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the Valuation Designee analyzes various factors consistent with industry practice, including but not limited to original transaction multiples, the portfolio company’s historical and projected financial results, applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and leverage levels, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, and comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public. Typically, the enterprise values of private companies are based on multiples of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), cash flows, net income, revenues, or in limited cases, book value.

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

In addition, for certain investments, the Valuation Designee may base its valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that the Fund and others may be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that the Fund and others may be willing to accept. The Valuation Designee generally uses the midpoint of the bid/ask range as its best estimate of fair value of such investment.

As of September 30, 2026, the Valuation Designee determined, in good faith, the fair value of the Fund’s portfolio investments in accordance with GAAP and the Fund’s valuation procedures based on the facts and circumstances known by the Fund and the Valuation Designee at that time, or reasonably expected to be known at that time.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The valuation for the Fund’s foreign currency forward contracts is based on the difference between the exchange rate associated with the forward contract and the exchange rate at the current period end. Foreign currency forward contracts are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Fair Value Disclosures

The following tables present fair value measurements of investments and foreign currency forward contracts, by major class according to the fair value hierarchy as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025:

Senior secured loans are collateralized by tangible and intangible assets of the borrowers. These investments include loans to entities that have some level of challenge in obtaining financing from other, more conventional institutions, such as a bank. Interest rates on these loans are either fixed or floating and are based on current market conditions and credit ratings of the borrower. The contractual interest rates on the loans in the Fund's investment portfolio ranged from 7.54% to 11.17% at September 30, 2026 and 7.48% to 10.94% at December 31, 2025. The maturity dates on the loans outstanding at September 30, 2026 range between November 2026 and January 2033.

(1)The weighted average mean of unobservable inputs is based on the fair value of investments.

Changes to the unobservable inputs utilized by the Valuation Designee in the determination of fair value of Level 3 investments could result in a significantly different fair value. The significant unobservable input used in the income approach of fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments is the discount rate used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment, which includes both future principal and interest payments. Increases (decreases) in the discount rate would result in a decrease (increase) in the fair value estimate of the investment. Included in the consideration and selection of discount rates are the following factors: risk of default, rating of the investment and comparable investments, and call provisions.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach of fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments are the market multiples of EBITDA or revenue of the comparable guideline public companies. The Valuation Designee selects a population of public companies for each investment with similar operations and attributes of the portfolio company. Using these guideline public companies’ data, a range of multiples of enterprise value to EBITDA or revenue is calculated. The Valuation Designee selects percentages from the range of multiples for purposes of determining the portfolio company’s estimated enterprise value based on said multiple and generally the latest twelve months EBITDA or revenue of the portfolio company (or other meaningful measure). Increases (decreases) in the multiple will result in an increase (decrease) in enterprise value, resulting in an increase (decrease) in the fair value estimate of the investment.

Other Financial Assets and Liabilities

ASC Topic 820 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value. The Fund believes that the carrying amounts of its other financial instruments such as cash and restricted cash and cash equivalents, receivables and payables approximate the fair value of such items due to the short maturity of such instruments.

MC Advisors, subject to the overall supervision of the Board, serves as the Fund's investment adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, which the Fund entered into with MC Advisors on the BDC Election Date. Prior to the BDC Election Date, MC Management served as our investment adviser pursuant to the MC Management Advisory Agreement. Each of MC Management and MC Advisors is registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act.

Prior to the BDC Election Date, the Fund was required to pay MC Management a fee for its services under the MC Management Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. The management fee and incentive fee calculations and structure under the MC Management Advisory Agreement were substantially identical to the management fee and incentive fee calculations and structure under the Advisory Agreement, as described below.

The Fund pays MC Advisors a fee for its services under the Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the management fee and the incentive fee are ultimately borne by the shareholders.

Management Fee: The management fee is payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.25% of the Fund's average total assets, which includes assets financed using leverage; provided, however, that no management fee will be charged on the value of the Fund's total assets that is below an asset coverage ratio of 200% calculated in accordance with Sections 18 and 61 of the 1940 Act. This has the effect of not charging management fees on the value of the portion of the Fund's total assets financed with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage in excess of regulatory leverage of 1:1 debt-to-equity. For purposes of calculating the management fee under the Advisory Agreement, the Fund's average total assets are calculated based on the Fund's total asset balances as of the beginning and end of the respective calendar month.

During the period starting on the date of entry into the Advisory Agreement through December 31, 2026 (the "Advisory Fee Waiver Period"), MC Advisors has voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of the management fee such that, during the Advisory Fee Waiver Period, the management fee is payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 0.95% of the Fund’s average total assets, which includes assets financed using leverage; provided, however, that no management fee will be charged on the value of our total assets that is below an asset coverage ratio of 200% calculated in accordance with Sections 18 and 61 of the 1940 Act. Amounts waived by the Adviser during the Advisory Fee Waiver Period are not subject to recoupment by the Adviser. MC Management also voluntarily agreed to the same management fee waiver for the period prior to the BDC Election Date.

Base management fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 were $696 and $1,999, respectively, of which MC Advisors elected to voluntarily waive $167 and $480, resulting in net fees of $529 and $1,519, respectively.

Incentive Fee: The incentive fee under the Advisory Agreement 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 Fund's income (part one incentive fees) and a portion is based on a percentage of the Fund's capital gains (part two incentive fees), each as described below.

Incentive Fee Based on Income: The portion based on the Fund's income is based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns for the calendar quarter. “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns” means, as the context requires, either the dollar value of, or percentage rate of return on the value of the Fund's net assets in accordance with GAAP at the end of the immediately preceding quarter from, dividends, cash interest or other distributions or other cash income and any third-party fees received from portfolio companies (such as upfront fees, commitment fees, origination fee, amendment fees, ticking fees and break-up fees, as well as prepayments premiums, but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance and fees earned by MC Advisors or an affiliate) accrued during the quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including any management fee, taxes, any expenses payable under the Advisory Agreement (and, to the extent applicable, the MC Management Advisory Agreement) and the Administration Agreement, any expense of securitizations, and interest expense or other financing fees and any dividends paid on preferred shares, but excluding incentive fees and shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest and zero-coupon securities), accrued income that the Fund has not yet received in cash. Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. The impact of expense support payments and recoupments are also excluded from Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns.

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Fund's net assets at the end of the immediately preceding quarter, is compared to a “hurdle rate” of return of 1.50% per quarter (6.0% annualized).

Under the Advisory Agreement, the Fund is required to pay MC Advisors an incentive fee quarterly in arrears with respect to Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns (part one incentive fees) in each calendar quarter as follows:

•no incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns in any calendar quarter in which the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns do not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50% (6.0% annually);

•100% of the dollar amount of the Fund's Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than or equal to a rate of return of 1.7143% in any calendar quarter. The Fund refers to this portion of the Fund Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than or equal to 1.7143%) as the “catch-up.” The “catch-up” is meant to provide MC Advisors with approximately 12.5% of our Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.7143% in any calendar quarter; and

(in thousands, except share and per share data)

•12.5% of the dollar amount of the Fund’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns, if any, that exceed a rate of return of 1.7143% in any calendar quarter. This reflects that once the hurdle rate is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 12.5% of all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns thereafter are allocated to MC Advisors.

However, during the Advisory Fee Waiver Period, MC Advisors has voluntarily agreed to waive all or any portion of the incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Returns it would be entitled to receive under the Advisory Agreement. Amounts waived by the Adviser during the Advisory Fee Waiver Period are not subject to recoupment by the Adviser. MC Management also voluntarily agreed to the same fee waiver of the incentive fee based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income Return for the period prior to the BDC Election Date.

Incentive Fee Based on Capital Gains: The second component of the incentive fee under the Advisory Agreement, the capital gains incentive fee (part two incentive fees), is payable at the end of each calendar year in arrears. The amount payable equals:

•12.5% of cumulative realized capital gains from inception through the end of such calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, as calculated in accordance with GAAP, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid incentive fee on capital.

Each year, the fee paid for the capital gains incentive fee is net of the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fee for all prior periods. The Fund will accrue, but will not pay, a capital gains incentive fee with respect to unrealized appreciation because a capital gains incentive fee would be owed to MC Advisors if the Fund were to sell the relevant investment and realize a capital gain. In no event will the capital gains incentive fee payable pursuant to the Advisory Agreement be in excess of the amount permitted by the Advisers Act, including Section 205 thereof. MC Management voluntarily agreed to waive all or any portion of the capital gains incentive fee payable to it under the MC Management Advisory Agreement for the period prior to the BDC Election Date.

While the Advisory Agreement neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an American Institute for Certified Public Accountants Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, the Fund includes unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to MC Advisors if the Fund's entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though MC Advisors is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

The composition of the Fund’s incentive fees for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 was as follows:


	Three months ended September 30, 2026		Nine months ended September 30, 2026
Part one incentive fees (1)	$	162		$	756
Part two incentive fees (2)	144			255
Total incentive fees	$	306		$	1,011
Incentive fee waivers (3)	(162)			(756)
Total incentive fees, net of incentive fee waivers	$	144		$	255

_________________________________________

(1)Based on pre-incentive fee net investment income.

(2)Based upon net realized and unrealized gains and losses, or capital gains and losses. The Fund accrues, but does not pay, a capital gains incentive fee in connection with any unrealized capital appreciation, as appropriate. If, on a cumulative basis, the sum of net realized gain (loss) plus net unrealized gain (loss) decreases during a period, the Fund will reverse any excess capital gains incentive fee previously accrued such that the amount of capital gains incentive fee accrued is no more than 12.5% of the sum of net realized gain (loss) plus net unrealized gain (loss). For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Fund accrued capital gains incentive fees of $144 and $255, respectively, based on the unrealized appreciation of portfolio investments, none of which was payable to MC Advisors under the Advisory Agreement.

(3)Represents part one incentive fees voluntarily waived by MC Advisors.

Reimbursement under the Administration Agreement: The Fund has entered into the Administration Agreement with MC Management, under which MC Management will furnish the Fund with office facilities and equipment and provide the Fund clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping and other administrative services at such facilities. Under the Administration Agreement, MC Management will perform, or oversee the performance of, the Fund’s required administrative services, which include, among other things, being responsible for the financial records that the Fund is required to maintain and preparing reports to the Fund’s shareholders and reports filed with the SEC. MC Management will also assist the Fund in determining and publishing the Fund’s net asset value, oversee the preparation and filing of the Fund’s tax returns, disseminate reports to the Fund’s shareholders and generally oversee the payment of the Fund’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Fund by others.

Under the Administration Agreement, the Fund will reimburse MC Management, subject to the review of the Board, for its allocable portion of MC Management’s overhead and other expenses incurred by MC Management in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including the allocable portion of the compensation and other expenses of certain officers, including the Fund’s allocable portion of the cost of the chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. To the extent that MC Management outsources any of its functions, the Fund will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis, without incremental profit to MC Management.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 the Fund incurred $726 and $1,858, respectively, in administrative expenses (included within professional fees, administrative service fees, and general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations) under the Administration Agreement, of which $218 and $758, respectively, were related to MC Management overhead and salary allocations and paid directly to MC Management to the extent not covered by the Expense Support Agreement (as defined below). As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $979 and $226, respectively, of expenses were due to MC Management under this agreement and are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Expense Support Agreement: The Fund has entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with MC Advisors. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, MC Advisors is obligated to advance the Fund’s Operating Expenses (each, a “Required Expense Payment”) to the extent that such expenses exceed 1.00% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund’s average NAV. Under the Expense Support Agreement, “Operating Expenses” means all of the Fund’s operating costs and expenses incurred (including organization and offering expenses), as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies, less base management and incentive fees owed to MC Advisors, shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees, and borrowing costs. Any Required Expense Payment must be paid by MC Advisors to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds, and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to MC Advisors or its affiliates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MC Advisors also paid $1,000 of the Fund’s organization and offering expenses on the Fund’s behalf without reimbursement or recoupment under the Expense Support Agreement or otherwise, which amount shall not be included in the calculation of “Operating Expenses” under the Expense Support Agreement.

MC Advisors may elect to pay certain additional expenses on the Fund’s behalf (each, a “Voluntary Expense Payment” and together with a Required Expense Payment, the “Expense Payments”), provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees of the Fund. Any Voluntary Expense Payment that MC Advisors has committed to pay must be paid by MC Advisors to the Fund 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 Fund to MC Advisors or its affiliates.

Upon and following the initial issuance of Common Shares to investors that are not affiliated with MC Advisors, following any calendar month (such calendar month, the “Applicable Calendar Month”) in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Fund’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in the Applicable Calendar Month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Fund will pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to MC Advisors until such time as all Expense Payments made by MC Advisors to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of the Applicable Calendar Month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Fund under the Expense Support Agreement are referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) the Fund’s net investment income calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, (ii) the Fund’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 Fund 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 quarter shall be made if: (1) the Fund’s Operating Expense Ratio at the time of such proposed Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, or (2) the Fund’s Operating Expense Ratio exceeds 1.00% (on an annualized basis). The “Operating Expense Ratio” is calculated by dividing Operating Expenses by the Fund’s monthly average net assets.

The Fund’s obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Fund on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent MC Advisors has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Fund recorded $481 and $1,148 in expense support on the consolidated statements of operations, respectively, which is subject to reimbursement in accordance with the Expense Support Agreement. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, $718 and $53, respectively, of operating expense payment reimbursements were due to MC Advisors under the Expense Support Agreement and were included in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

Trademark License Agreement: The Fund has entered into a trademark license agreement with Monroe Capital LLC under which Monroe Capital LLC has agreed to grant the Fund a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “Monroe Capital” for specified purposes in its business. Under this agreement, the Fund has the right to use the “Monroe Capital” name at no cost, subject to certain conditions, for so long as MC Advisors or one of its affiliates remains its investment adviser. Other than with respect to this limited license, the Fund has no legal right to the “Monroe Capital” name or logo.

Trustees' Fees: As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund had accounts payable to members of the Board of $25 and zero, respectively, representing accrued and unpaid fees for their services.

Purchases from Affiliates: On November 12, 2025, prior to the BDC Election Date, the Fund acquired an initial portfolio of investments from affiliates managed by MC Management for a total fair value of $159,226. The portfolio consisted of investments in 28 portfolio companies and included 28 senior secured loans and eight equity securities, that MC Management believed were consistent with the Fund’s investment objective and provided the Fund with a sound foundation for its business. The members of the Fund’s Board who are not “interested persons,” as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act of the Fund were apprised of the terms of the transaction and, based on information from MC Management regarding potential conflicts of interest in the trade and representations from MC Management that such terms were fair, appropriate, and in the best interest of each participating party, approved the transactions. In connection with such approval, MC Management informed the non-interested trustees that the prices for the acquired assets reflected the market price that would be obtained by or from a third party and, in MC Management’s judgment, represented a reasonable price for such assets that would be paid in an arm’s length transaction.

Note 6. Borrowings

In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Fund is permitted to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% immediately after such borrowing. On October 10, 2025, the Fund’s sole initial shareholder approved a proposal that allows the Fund to reduce its asset coverage ratio applicable to senior securities from 200% to 150%. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund’s asset coverage ratio based on aggregate borrowings outstanding was 203% and 202%, respectively.

The Fund’s outstanding debt as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, was as follows:

DB Credit Facility

On November 10, 2025 (the "DB Credit Facility Effective Date"), the Fund entered into a loan financing and servicing agreement (the “DB Credit Facility”) as equityholder and as servicer, through a special purpose wholly-owned subsidiary, MLEND Financing SPV, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as collateral agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral custodian, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as facility agent (the “Facility Agent”), the agents for the lender groups from time to time parties thereto, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent.

Under the DB Credit Facility, the lenders have agreed to extend credit to MLEND Financing SPV in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200,000 as of the DB Credit Facility Effective Date, and includes an accordion feature which allows the Fund, under certain circumstances, to increase the total size of the facility to $500,000 with consent of the Facility Agent and the lenders. The period during which the MLEND Financing SPV may request advances under the DB Credit Facility (the “Revolving Period”) commenced on the DB Credit Facility Effective Date and will continue through November 10, 2028 unless there is an earlier termination or a facility termination event. The DB Credit Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) two years from the last day of the Revolving Period, (ii) the date on which the Fund ceases to exist or (iii) the occurrence of a facility termination event.

Advances may be made under the DB Credit Facility in Euros, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars or US Dollars. At the election of MLEND Financing SPV (which election was made by MLEND Financing SPV on the DB Credit Facility Effective Date and may be made from time to time thereafter with notice to the lenders), advances under the DB Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable base rate plus (i) during the Revolving Period and prior to the occurrence of a facility termination event (x) with respect to Option 1 (as defined in the DB Credit Facility), 1.85% and (y) with respect to Option 2 (as defined in the DB Credit Facility), 1.75%, (ii) after the end of the Revolving Period and prior to the occurrence of any facility termination event, (x) with respect to Option 1, 2.05% and (y) with respect to Option 2, 1.95% and (iii) on and after the occurrence of any facility termination event, (x) with respect to Option 1, 4.05% and (y) with respect to Option 2, 3.95%. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding borrowings of $107,200 and $99,400 were accruing at a weighted average interest rate of 5.48% and 5.61%, respectively.

In addition, a non-usage fee of 0.35% per annum is payable to the lenders on the amount of undrawn commitments under the DB Credit Facility, and, during the Revolving Period, an additional fee based on unfunded commitments of the lenders may be payable if borrowings under the DB Credit Facility do not exceed a minimum utilization percentage threshold.

The DB Credit Facility is secured by all of the assets held by MLEND Financing SPV. MLEND Financing SPV has made customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities. The Fund’s borrowings, including under the DB Credit Facility, are subject to the leverage restrictions contained in the 1940 Act.

As of September 30, 2026, the Fund and MLEND Financing SPV were in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the agreement governing the DB Credit Facility.

Note 7. Derivative Instruments

The Fund enters into foreign currency forward contracts from time to time to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on future principal and interest cash flows from the Fund’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the counterparty to these foreign currency forward contracts was Bannockburn Global Forex, LLC. Net unrealized gain or loss on foreign currency forward contracts are included in net change in unrealized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts and net realized gain or loss on forward currency forward contracts are included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

The Fund has adopted a DRIP whereby shareholders (other than those located in specific states or who are clients of selected participating brokers) will have their cash distributions (net of applicable withholding tax) automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same class of Common Shares to which the distribution relates unless they elect to receive their distributions in cash. The purchase price for shares issued under our distribution reinvestment plan will be equal to the most recent NAV per share for such shares at the time the distribution is payable. Shareholders will not pay transaction related charges when purchasing shares under the DRIP, but all outstanding Class S shares and Class D shares, including those issued under the DRIP, will be subject to the ongoing servicing fees. As of both September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the Fund had not sold any Class S or Class D shares.

The following table summarizes the Fund’s distributions reinvested with respect to the Fund's Class I shares during the nine months ended September 30, 2026:

Share Repurchase Program

At the discretion of the Board and subject to available liquidity, beginning no later than the quarter ending December 31, 2027, the Fund intends to commence a share repurchase program in which the Fund intends to offer to repurchase up to 5% of the Fund's Common Shares outstanding (by number of shares) in each quarter. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time if it deems such action to be in the Fund's best interest and the best interest of the Fund's common shareholders. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter. The Fund will conduct any such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the 1940 Act, with the terms of such tender offer published in a tender offer statement to be sent to all shareholders and filed on Schedule TO. All shares purchased by the Fund pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will thereafter be authorized and unissued shares.

Under the Fund's share repurchase program, to the extent the Fund offers to repurchase shares in any particular quarter, the Fund expects to repurchase shares pursuant to tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable month designated by the Board, except that the Fund deducts 2.00% from such NAV for shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year (the "Early Repurchase Deduction"). The Early Repurchase Deduction will not apply to shares acquired through the Fund's DRIP and may be waived by the Fund in certain instances.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the Fund did not repurchase any Common Shares.

Indemnification: In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnification. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these agreements is unknown, as these involve future claims that may be made against the Fund but that have not occurred. The Fund expects the risk of any future obligations under these indemnification provisions to be remote.

Concentration of credit and counterparty risk: Credit risk arises primarily from the potential inability of counterparties to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. In the event that the counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Fund may be exposed to risk. The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparties or issuers of the instruments. It is the Fund’s policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty.

Market risk: The Fund’s investments and borrowings 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 and borrowings are traded.

Legal proceedings: In the normal course of business, the Fund may be subject to legal and regulatory proceedings that are generally incidental to its ongoing operations. While there can be no assurance of the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings, the Fund is not currently aware of any such proceedings or disposition that would have a material adverse effect on the Fund’s consolidated financial statements.

_________________________________________

(1)The per share data was derived by using the weighted average shares outstanding during the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

(2)The per share data for distributions reflects the actual amount of distributions declared from net investment income during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. Management monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a tax return of capital may occur for the year. To the extent the Fund’s taxable earnings fall below the total amount of the Fund’s distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to the Fund’s shareholders. The tax character of distributions will be determined at the end of the fiscal year.

(3)Total net return is calculated as the change in NAV per share during the period, plus distributions per share (assuming distributions are reinvested) divided by the beginning NAV per share. The Fund's performance changes over time and currently may be different than that shown. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Return calculation is not annualized.

(4)Ratio is not annualized.

(5)Ratios are annualized. Incentive fees and organizational and offering costs included within the ratios are not annualized.

Note 12. Segment Reporting

The Fund operates through a single operating and reporting segment with an investment objective to generate both current income and capital appreciation through debt and equity investments. The CODM is comprised of the Fund’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer. The CODM assesses the performance and makes operating decisions of the Fund on a consolidated basis primarily based on the Fund’s net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations (“net income”) and net investment income. In addition to numerous other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes net income and net investment income as the key metrics in determining the amount of dividends to be distributed to the Fund’s shareholders. As the Fund’s operations comprise of a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as “total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

Note 13. Subsequent Events

The Fund has evaluated subsequent events through November 9, 2026, the date on which the consolidated financial statements were issued.

Public Offering: On October 1, 2026, the Fund sold 27,913 Class I shares in the Public Offering for aggregate consideration of $729. On November 2, 2026, the Fund received proceeds of $1,992 related to the issuance of additional Class I shares in the Public Offering to bring the total consideration the Fund received for stock issuances subsequent to September 30, 2026 to $2,721.

Closing of the Private Offering of Class S and Class D Common Shares and Concurrent Note Offering: As of November 2, 2026, the Fund issued and sold (1) 110 of its unregistered Class S shares and (2) 110 of its unregistered Class D shares, in each case at a per share price equal to the net asset value per share of the applicable class as of October 31, 2026, to be determined in accordance with the valuation policies and procedures of MC Advisors.

The offer and sale of the Class S shares and Class D shares were made pursuant to purchase agreements entered into by the Fund and each of 110 separate investors and were included with promissory notes each with a principal amount of $1 (each a “Note” and collectively the “Notes”). The Fund issued the Class S shares, the Class D shares, and the Notes on November 2, 2026 in private placement transactions (the “Private Offerings”) pursuant to certain exemptions under the Securities Act and the laws of the states and jurisdictions where any offering was made to investors who are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. The Fund received approximately $152 in net proceeds from the Private Offerings.

The aggregate purchase price for each Note was $1 per Note, which amount is inclusive of the purchase price of one Class S share or Class D share, as applicable. The Fund will pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 12.0% per annum per Note, payable semi-annually in arrears. The Notes have a 30-year term. Some or all of the Notes may be prepaid by the Fund at any time, in whole or in part, at any time on or following the date on which the Fund has repurchased the Class S share or Class D share, as applicable, purchased by the holder of the Note in connection with the issuance of such Note, provided that (i) the Fund will pay on the date of such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest due on such prepaid principal amount and (ii) if the prepayment occurs prior to the 24-month anniversary of the original issue date of the Notes, the Fund will pay on the date of such prepayment a one-time premium equal to $100 (in whole dollars) per Note.

We use words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “expects,” “intends,” “seeks,” “plans,” “estimates,” “targets” and similar expressions to identify forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those implied or expressed in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including the factors set forth in “Part II-Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2026 and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025.

Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we may file in the future with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), including Annual Reports on Form 10-K, registration statements on Form N-2, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K.

Overview

Monroe Capital Enhanced Corporate Lending Fund is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. Formed as a Delaware statutory trust on March 3, 2025, we are externally managed by the Adviser, which is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. We commenced investment operations following the closing on the Seed Contribution and, prior to the BDC Election Date on November 20, 2025, conducted our investment activities and operations pursuant to an exclusion from the definition of “investment company” in the 1940 Act. Proceeds from the Seed Contribution were invested in accordance with the Fund’s investment objective. Prior to the BDC Election Date, MC Management served as our investment adviser, pursuant to the MC Management Advisory Agreement, and as our Administrator, pursuant to the Administration Agreement. Following the BDC Election Date, MC Advisors serves as our investment adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, which we entered with MC Advisors on the BDC Election Date (at which time the MC Management Advisory Agreement was terminated). MC Management continues to serve as the Administrator following the BDC Election Date pursuant to the terms of the Administration Agreement. The term “Adviser” refers (i) to MC Management in its capacity as our investment adviser prior to the BDC Election Date and (ii) to MC Advisors in its capacity as our investment adviser following our entry into the Advisory Agreement on the BDC Election Date. Both MC Management and MC Advisors are registered as investment advisers with the SEC under the Advisers Act. We have also elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code.

Table of Contents

As an emerging growth company, we intend to take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") for complying with new or revised accounting standards.

Our investment strategy involves primarily investing in directly originated investments, including senior secured loans and club transactions, and, to a lesser extent, select syndicated opportunities. We generally target U.S.-based lower middle market businesses, which we define as companies with between $50 million and $350 million of annual revenue and between $3 million and $35 million of annual EBITDA, although we may invest outside these ranges where appropriate.

We invest primarily in: (i) senior secured loans, notes, and bonds; (ii) unitranche secured loans and securities (a combination of senior secured and junior secured debt in the same facility in which we syndicate a “first out” portion of the loan to an investor and retain a “last out” portion of the loan); (iii) syndicated loans; and (iv) equity in relation to financing independent sponsor transactions where we typically provide a combination of both senior debt and equity. The Fund may invest without limit in directly originated loans. To a lesser extent, we make investments in subordinated secured and unsecured loans, subordinated debt, which in some cases includes equity and/or preferred components and other types of credit instruments, made to or issued by U.S. lower middle market companies, or in more liquid credit investment opportunities, including in publicly traded debt instruments, for cash management purposes. We also invest in foreign instruments and illiquid and restricted securities. While most of our investments are in private U.S. companies (we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in “qualifying assets,” including private U.S. companies), we also invest from time to time in non-U.S. companies. As of September 30, 2026, our portfolio included approximately 92.9% senior secured loans and 7.1% equity investments based on fair value. The companies in which we invest may be leveraged, often as a result of leveraged buyouts or other recapitalization transactions, and, in certain cases, will not be rated by national ratings agencies. If such companies were rated, we believe that they would typically receive a rating below investment grade (between BB and CCC under the Standard & Poor’s system) from the national rating agencies.

We use Monroe Capital LLC’s ("Monroe Capital") extensive leveraged finance origination infrastructure and broad expertise in sourcing loans to invest in senior secured, unitranche secured and junior secured debt of middle-market companies. Our investment size will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base. We believe that our focus on lending to lower middle-market companies offers several advantages as compared to lending to larger companies, including more attractive economics, lower leverage, more comprehensive and restrictive covenants, more expansive events of default, relatively small debt facilities that provide us with enhanced influence over our borrowers, direct access to borrower management and improved information flow.

Stock Issuances and Share Repurchase Program

Stock Issuances: On May 6, 2025, we received an exemptive order from the SEC, that permits us to issue any multiple classes of our common shares of beneficial interests (the “Common Shares”) with, among others, different ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees (the "Multi-Class Exemptive Relief"). Pursuant to the Multi-Class Exemptive Relief, we offer on a continuous basis up to $1.0 billion of our Common Shares, including Class S shares, Class D shares and Class I shares, pursuant to a continuous public offering (the "Public Offering") registered with the SEC. The share classes have different ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees. The purchase price per share for each class of Common Shares equals the NAV per share, as of the effective date of the monthly share purchase date. The Public Offering is a “best efforts” offering, which means that InspereX LLC, the managing dealer for the Public Offering, will use its best efforts to sell Common Shares, but is not obligated to purchase or sell any specific amount of shares.

The following table summarizes the issuance of Class I shares in our Public Offering (in thousands except shares and per share data) during the nine months ended September 30, 2026:

We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP") that provides for the reinvestment of dividends and other distributions on behalf of our holders of the Common Shares who do not elect to receive their dividends in cash. See "Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources - Distributions" below for more information regarding the DRIP.

As of September 30, 2026 the Fund had not sold any Class S or Class D shares.

Share Repurchase Program: At the discretion of our Board of Trustees (the "Board") and subject to available liquidity, beginning no later than the quarter ending December 31, 2027, we intend to commence a share repurchase program in which we intend to offer to repurchase up to 5% of our Common Shares outstanding (by number of shares) in each quarter. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program if it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of our common shareholders. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter, or at all.

We will conduct any such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and the 1940 Act, with the terms of such tender offer published in a tender offer statement to be sent to all shareholders and filed with the SEC on Schedule TO. All common shareholders will be given at least 20 full business days to elect to participate in such share repurchases. All shares purchased by us pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will thereafter be authorized and unissued shares.

Under our share repurchase program, to the extent we offer to repurchase shares in any particular quarter, we expect to repurchase shares pursuant to tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable month designated by the Board, except that the Fund deducts 2.00% from such NAV for shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year (the “Early Repurchase Deduction”). The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date. The Early Repurchase Deduction will not apply to shares acquired through the DRIP and may be waived in the case of repurchase requests: (i) arising from the death or qualified disability of the holder; (ii) submitted by discretionary model portfolio management programs (and similar arrangements); (iii) from feeder funds (or similar vehicles) primarily created to hold our Common Shares, which are offered to non-U.S. persons, where such funds seek to avoid imposing such a deduction because of administrative or systems limitations; (iv) in the event that a shareholder’s Common Shares are repurchased because the shareholder has failed to maintain the $500 minimum account balance; or (v) due to trade or operational error. The Early Repurchase Deduction will be retained by the Fund for the benefit of remaining shareholders.

Key Components of our Results of Operations

Investment income

We generate interest income on the debt investments in portfolio company investments that we originate or acquire. Our debt investments, whether in the form of senior secured, unitranche secured or junior secured debt, typically have an initial term of three to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. In some cases, our investments provide for deferred interest of payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. 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 and prepayment gains (losses) on loans as interest income. As the frequency or volume of the repayments that trigger these prepayment premiums and prepayment gains (losses) may fluctuate significantly from period to period, the associated interest income recorded may also fluctuate significantly from period to period. Interest and fee income is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent we expect to collect such amounts. Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual terms of debt and preferred equity investments. Interest is accrued on a daily basis. We record fees on loans based on the determination of whether the fee is considered a yield enhancement or payment for a service. If the fee is considered a yield enhancement associated with a funding of cash on a loan, the fee is generally deferred and recognized into interest income using the effective interest method if captured in the cost basis or using the straight-line method if the loan is unfunded and therefore there is no cost basis. If the fee is not considered a yield enhancement because a service was provided, and the fee is payment for that service, the fee is deemed earned and recorded as other income in the period the service is completed.

Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies. Each distribution received from limited liability company (“LLC”) and limited partnership (“LP”) investments is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, we will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment. The frequency and volume of the distributions on common equity investments and LLC and LP investments may fluctuate significantly from period to period.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of base management and incentive fees to MC Advisors under the Advisory Agreement, reimbursement payments to MC Management for our allocable portion of MC Management's overhead and other expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, and interest expense and other debt financing expenses related to our borrowings. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for additional information on our Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement.

Except as specifically provided in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Operating Expenses” in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, all investment professionals and staff of the Adviser, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory services to us, and the base compensation, bonus and benefits, and routine overhead expenses, of such personnel allocable to such services, are provided and paid for by the Adviser. We bear all other costs and expenses of our operations, administration and transactions. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Operating Expenses” in Part II of our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 for more information.

Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement

We have entered into the Expense Support Agreement with MC Advisors. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement, MC Advisors is obligated to advance our Operating Expenses to the extent that such expenses exceed 1.00% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund’s average NAV. Any Required Expense Payment must be paid by MC Advisors to us in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds, and/or offset against amounts due from us to MC Advisors or its affiliates.

MC Advisors may elect to pay certain additional expenses on our behalf, provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or distribution and/or shareholder servicing fees of the Fund. Any Voluntary Expense Payment that MC Advisors has committed to pay must be paid by MC Advisors to us 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 us to MC Advisors or its affiliates.

Upon and following the initial issuance of Common Shares to investors that are not affiliated with MC Advisors, following any calendar month (such calendar month, the “Applicable Calendar Month”) in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Fund’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in the Applicable Calendar Month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), we will pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to MC Advisors until such time as all Expense Payments made by MC Advisors to the Fund within three years prior to the last business day of the Applicable Calendar Month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Fund shall be referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) our net investment income calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP, (ii) our 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 us 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).

Net gain (loss)

We recognize realized gains or losses on investments, foreign currency forward contracts, and foreign currency and other transactions based on the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the cost basis without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized within net realized gain (loss) on the consolidated statements of operations. We record current period changes in fair value of investments, foreign currency forward contracts, foreign currency and other transactions within net change in unrealized gain (loss) on the consolidated statements of operations.

Portfolio and Investment Activity

During the three months ended September 30, 2026, we invested $2.0 million in one new portfolio company and we invested $3.8 million in 15 existing portfolio companies and had $12.6 million in aggregate amount of principal repayments, resulting in net decrease in investments of $6.8 million for the period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we invested $28.5 million in seven new portfolio companies and we invested $22.6 million in 44 existing portfolio companies and had $33.1 million in aggregate amount of principal repayments, resulting in a net increase in investments of $18.0 million for the period.

_________________________________________

(1)The weighted average annualized contractual coupon yield at period end is computed by dividing (a) the interest income on our debt investments and preferred equity investments (with a stated coupon rate) at the period end contractual coupon rate for each investment by (b) the par value of our debt investments and the cost basis of our preferred equity investments.

(2)The weighted average annualized effective yield on portfolio investments at period end is computed by dividing (a) interest income on our debt investments and preferred equity investments (with a stated coupon rate) at the period end effective rate for each investment by (b) the par value of our debt investments and the cost basis of our preferred equity investments. The weighted average annualized effective yield on portfolio investments is a metric on the investment portfolio alone and does not represent a return to shareholders. This metric is not inclusive of our fees and expenses, the impact of leverage on the investment portfolio or sales load that may be paid by shareholders.

Our portfolio composition at September 30, 2026 remained relatively consistent with our portfolio at December 31, 2025, with changes resulting primarily from investments in new and existing portfolio companies. As of September 30, 2026, our yields decreased slightly compared to December 31, 2025, primarily due to payoffs on higher-yielding investments.

Portfolio Asset Quality

MC Advisors’ portfolio management staff closely monitors all credits, with senior portfolio managers covering agented and more complex investments with the support of junior portfolio management staff. MC Advisors segregates our capital markets investments by industry. MC Advisors’ monitoring process and projections developed by Monroe Capital both have daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly components and related reports, each to evaluate performance against historical, budget and underwriting expectations. MC Advisors’ analysts monitor performance using standard industry software tools to provide consistent disclosure of performance. When necessary, MC Advisors updates our internal risk ratings, borrowing base criteria and covenant compliance reports.

Table of Contents

As part of the monitoring process, MC Advisors regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and rates each of them based on an internal proprietary system that uses the categories listed below, which we refer to as MC Advisors’ investment performance risk rating. For any investment rated in Grades 3, 4 or 5, MC Advisors, through its internal Portfolio Management Group (“PMG”), will increase its monitoring intensity and prepare regular updates for the investment committee for the Fund ("Investment Committee"), summarizing current operating results and material impending events and suggesting recommended actions. The PMG is responsible for oversight and management of any investments rated in Grades 3, 4, or 5. MC Advisors monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each investment in our portfolio. In connection with our valuation process, MC Advisors reviews these investment performance risk ratings on a quarterly basis. The investment performance risk rating system is described as follows:


Investment Performance Risk Rating						Summary Description
Grade 1						Includes investments exhibiting the least amount of risk in our portfolio. The issuer is performing above expectations or the issuer’s operating trends and risk factors are generally positive.

Grade 2						Includes investments exhibiting an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of origination. The issuer is generally performing as expected or the risk factors are neutral to positive.

Grade 3						Includes investments performing below expectations and indicates that the investment’s risk has increased somewhat since origination. The issuer may be out of compliance with debt covenants; however, scheduled loan payments are generally not past due.

Grade 4						Includes an issuer performing materially below expectations and indicates that the issuer’s risk has increased materially since origination. In addition to the issuer being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, scheduled loan payments may be past due (but generally not more than six months past due).

Grade 5						Indicates that the issuer is performing substantially below expectations and the investment risk has substantially increased since origination. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance or payments are substantially delinquent. Investments graded 5 are not anticipated to be repaid in full.

Our investment performance risk ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or reflect or represent any third-party assessment of any of our investments.

In the event of a delinquency or a decision to rate an investment Grade 4 or Grade 5, the PMG, in consultation with the Investment Committee, will develop an action plan. Such a plan may require a meeting with the borrower’s management or the lender group to discuss reasons for the default and the steps management is undertaking to address the under-performance, as well as amendments and waivers that may be required. In the event of a dramatic deterioration of a credit, MC Advisors and the PMG will form a team or engage outside advisors to analyze, evaluate and take further steps to preserve our value in the credit. In this regard, we would expect to explore all options, including in a private equity sponsored investment, assuming certain responsibilities for the private equity sponsor or a formal sale of the business with oversight of the sale process by us. The PMG and the Investment Committee have extensive experience in running debt work-out transactions and bankruptcies.

Results of Operations

We commenced investment operations following the closing on capital in the Seed Contribution, which occurred on November 6, 2025. Since we commenced investment operations on November 6, 2025, we therefore have no corresponding prior periods with which to compare our operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Operating results were as follows (in thousands):

Income Taxes, Including Excise Taxes

We have elected to be treated for federal income tax purposes, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we operate in a manner so as to qualify for the U.S. federal income tax treatment available to RICs. To maintain qualification as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and distribute to shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income,” which is generally our net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may choose to carry forward such taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions from such current year taxable income into the next year and pay U.S. federal income tax at corporate rates and a 4% excise tax on such income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income may exceed estimated current year dividend distributions, we accrue excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as such taxable income is earned. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded no net expense on the consolidated statements of operations for U.S. federal excise tax.

One of our consolidated subsidiaries is subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we recorded no net tax expense on the consolidated statements of operations for this subsidiary.

Net Realized Gain (Loss)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we had no net realized gain (loss) on investments.

We have entered and may continue to enter into foreign currency forward contracts to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we had ($2) thousand and ($5) thousand of net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency forward contracts, respectively.

Table of Contents

Net Change in Unrealized Gain (Loss)

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, our investments had $1.2 million and $2.1 million of net change in unrealized gain (loss). The net change in unrealized gain includes both unrealized gain on investments in our portfolio with mark-to-market gains during the periods and unrealized loss on investments in our portfolio with mark-to-market losses during the periods.

For the three months ended September 30, 2026, our foreign currency forward contracts had $(11) thousand of net change in unrealized gain (loss). For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, our foreign currency forward contracts had $(0.1) million of net change in unrealized gain (loss).

Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $3.5 million and $9.0 million, respectively, primarily as a result of net investment income and net mark-to-market gains on our investments. Based on our weighted average Common Shares outstanding during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, our per share net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $0.83 and $2.21, respectively.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the proceeds from the sale of Common Shares, pursuant to our registration statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-290835) in a public offering on a continuous basis at a price per share equal to the then-current NAV per share, advances from the DB Facility and cash flows from our operations. We also expect to generate cash from any additional financing arrangements we may enter into in the future and any future offerings of our equity or debt securities. Our primary uses of cash and cash equivalents are for (i) investments in portfolio companies and other investments, (ii) the cost of operations (including paying the Adviser and the Administrator), (iii) cost of any borrowings or other financing arrangements and (iv) cash distributions to the holders of our Common Shares.

As a BDC, we are generally not permitted to issue and sell our Common Shares at a price below NAV per share. We may, however, sell our Common Shares, or warrants, options or rights to acquire our Common Shares, at a price below the then-current NAV per share of our Common Shares if our Board, including our independent trustees, determines that such sale is in the best interests of us and our shareholders, and if our shareholders have approved such sales. As of September 30, 2026, we had 4,207,034 Class I shares outstanding. As of September 30, 2026, we had not sold any of our Class S or Class D shares.

As of September 30, 2026, we had $1.4 million in cash and cash equivalents and $4.7 million in restricted cash and cash equivalents at MLEND Financing SPV. Restricted cash and cash equivalents includes amounts held within our wholly-owned financing subsidiary and is generally restricted to use for the origination of new investments, the repayment of outstanding debt and the related payment of interest expense, and the quarterly release of our earnings.

As of September 30, 2026, $107.2 million was outstanding on our DB Credit Facility, and we had $3.5 million of remaining borrowing base availability under the facility. See “Borrowings” below for additional information. In accordance with the 1940 Act, we are generally permitted to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 150% immediately after such borrowing. For purposes of the 1940 Act, “asset coverage” means the ratio of (1) the total assets of a BDC, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to (2) the aggregate amount of senior securities representing indebtedness (plus, in the case of senior securities represented by preferred stock, the aggregate involuntary liquidation preference of such BDC’s preferred stock). As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, our asset coverage ratio based on aggregate borrowings outstanding was 203% and 202%, respectively.

Cash Flows

For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, we experienced a net decrease in cash and restricted cash and cash equivalents of $1.1 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2026, operating activities used $9.2 million, primarily as a result of purchases of portfolio investments, partially offset by proceeds from principal payments and sale of investments and settlement of forward contracts and net investment income. During the same period we generated $8.1 million from financing activities, primarily as a result of proceeds from net borrowings on the DB Credit Facility and proceeds from the issuance of Common Shares, partially offset by distributions to shareholders.

Distributions

To the extent that we have taxable income available, and subject to approval by the Board, we intend to make monthly distributions to our shareholders. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the applicable record date. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of our Board and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, maintenance of our tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and provisions in our financing arrangements and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant from time to time.

The determination of the tax attributes for our distributions is made annually, based upon our taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. Ordinary dividend distributions from a RIC do not qualify for the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income from domestic corporations and qualified foreign corporations, except to the extent that the RIC received the income in the form of qualifying dividends from domestic corporations and qualified foreign corporations. The tax attributes for distributions will generally include both ordinary income and capital gains, but may also include qualified dividends or return of capital. Distributions to shareholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026 totaled $2.3 million ($0.56 per share) and $7.1 million ($1.74 per share), respectively. The tax character of such distributions is determined at the end of the fiscal year.

To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any tax year, a portion of those distributions could 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 could be the original capital invested by the shareholder rather than our income or gains. Shareholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a distribution payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or gains.

We have adopted a DRIP with respect to the Common Shares, pursuant to which we will reinvest all cash dividends declared by the Board on behalf of holders of the Common Shares who do not elect to receive their dividends in cash as provided below. As a result, if the Board authorizes, and we declare, a cash dividend or other distribution on the Common Shares, then our shareholders who participate in the DRIP will have their cash distributions (net of applicable withholding tax) automatically reinvested in additional Shares as described below, rather than receiving the cash dividend or other distribution. The purchase price for shares issued under our distribution reinvestment plan will be equal to the most recent NAV per share for such shares at the time the distribution is payable. Shareholders will not pay transaction-related charges when purchasing shares under our DRIP, but all outstanding Class S shares and Class D shares, including those acquired under the DRIP, will be subject to ongoing shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees.

No action is required on the part of a registered shareholder to have his, her or its cash dividend or other distribution reinvested in our shares, except shareholders located in certain states or who are clients of selected participating brokers, as described below. Shareholders who are eligible for default enrollment can elect to “opt out” of the Fund’s DRIP in their subscription agreements. Shareholders located in Alabama, Arkansas, California, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Tennessee, Vermont and Washington, as well as those who are clients of certain participating brokers that do not permit automatic enrollment in our DRIP, will automatically receive their distributions in cash unless they elect to participate in our DRIP and have their cash distributions reinvested in additional Common Shares.

Table of Contents

A registered shareholder may elect to receive distributions in cash or terminate his, her or its account under the DRIP by notifying the DRIP's plan administrator in writing no later than 10 calendar days prior to the record date for an applicable distribution; otherwise, such election or termination shall be effective only with respect to any subsequent distributions. Any transfer of shares by a participant to a non-participant will terminate participation in the DRIP with respect to the transferred shares. If a participant elects to tender its Common Shares in full and such full tender is accepted by the Fund, such shareholder’s participation in the DRIP will be automatically terminated as of the expiration of the applicable tender offer and any distributions due to such shareholder on or after such date will be paid in cash on the scheduled distribution payment date. If your shares are held by a broker or other financial intermediary, you may “opt-out” of our DRIP by notifying your broker or other financial intermediary of your election.

DB Credit Facility

On November 10, 2025 (the “DB Credit Facility Effective Date”), our wholly-owned subsidiary, MLEND Financing SPV, entered into the “DB Credit Facility”, with us, as equityholder and as servicer, the lenders from time to time parties thereto, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as collateral agent, U.S. Bank National Association, as collateral custodian, Deutsche Bank AG, New York Branch, as facility agent (the “Facility Agent”), the agents for the lender groups from time to time parties thereto, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as administrative agent.

Table of Contents

Under the DB Credit Facility, the lenders have agreed to extend credit to MLEND Financing SPV in an aggregate principal amount of up to $200.0 million as of the DB Credit Facility Effective Date, and includes an accordion feature which allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the total size of the facility to $500.0 million with consent of the Facility Agent and the lenders. The period during which MLEND Financing SPV may request advances under the DB Credit Facility (the “Revolving Period”) commenced on the DB Credit Facility Effective Date and will continue through November 10, 2028 unless there is an earlier termination or a facility termination event. The DB Credit Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) two years from the last day of the Revolving Period, (ii) the date on which we cease to exist or (iii) the occurrence of a facility termination event.

Advances may be made under the DB Credit Facility in Euros, Canadian Dollars, British Pounds Sterling, Australian Dollars or US Dollars. At the election of MLEND Financing SPV (which election was made by MLEND Financing SPV on the DB Credit Facility Effective Date and may be made from time to time thereafter with notice to the lenders), advances under the DB Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable base rate plus (i) during the Revolving Period and prior to the occurrence of a facility termination event (x) with respect to Option 1 (as defined in the DB Credit Facility), 1.85% and (y) with respect to Option 2 (as defined in the DB Credit Facility), 1.75%, (ii) after the end of the Revolving Period and prior to the occurrence of any facility termination event, (x) with respect to Option 1, 2.05% and (y) with respect to Option 2, 1.95% and (iii) on and after the occurrence of any facility termination event, (x) with respect to Option 1, 4.05% and (y) with respect to Option 2, 3.95%. As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the outstanding borrowings of $107.2 million and $99.4 million were accruing at a weighted average interest rate of 5.48% and 5.61%, respectively.

As of September 30, 2026, we and MLEND Financing SPV were in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the agreement governing the DB Credit Facility.

Commitments and Contingencies and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Commitments and Contingencies: As of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had outstanding commitments to fund investments under undrawn revolvers, delayed draw commitments and subscription agreements totaling $47.0 million and $38.6 million, respectively. We believe that our available cash balances and/or ability to draw on our DB Credit Facility or raise additional leverage facilities provide sufficient funds to cover our unfunded commitments as of September 30, 2026. Additionally, we have entered into certain contracts with other parties that contain a variety of indemnification provisions. Our maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, as of September 30, 2026, we have not experienced claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and believe the risk of loss related to such indemnification provisions to be remote.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements: Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities.

Market Trends

We have identified the following general trends that may affect our business:

Target Market: We believe that small and middle-market companies in the United States with annual revenues between $10.0 million and $2.5 billion represent a significant growth segment of the U.S. economy and often require substantial capital investments to grow. Middle-market companies have generated a significant number of investment opportunities for investment funds managed or advised by Monroe Capital, and we believe that this market segment will continue to produce significant investment opportunities for us.

Table of Contents

Specialized Lending Requirements: We believe that several factors render many U.S. financial institutions ill-suited to lend to U.S. middle-market companies. For example, based on the experience of our management team, lending to U.S. middle-market companies (1) is generally more labor intensive than lending to larger companies due to the smaller size of each investment and the fragmented nature of information for such companies, (2) requires due diligence and underwriting practices consistent with the demands and economic limitations of the middle-market and (3) may also require more extensive ongoing monitoring by the lender.

Demand for Debt Capital: We believe there is a large pool of uninvested private equity capital for middle-market companies. We expect private equity firms will seek to leverage their investments by combining equity capital with senior secured loans and mezzanine debt from other sources, such as us.

Competition from Other Lenders: We believe that many traditional bank lenders, in past years, de-emphasized their service and product offerings to middle-market businesses in favor of lending to large corporate clients and managing capital market transactions. In addition, many commercial banks face significant balance sheet constraints as they seek to build capital and meet future regulatory capital requirements. These factors may result in opportunities for alternative funding sources to middle-market companies and therefore drive increased new investment opportunities for us. We believe the lower middle market - our core focus - remains more insulated from broader market conditions, given the greater complexity, smaller transaction sizes, and relationship-intensive underwriting requirements that continue to favor experienced non-bank lenders. In addition, there has been a significant amount of capital raised over the past several years dedicated to middle market lending which has increased competitive pressure in the BDC and investment company marketplace for senior and subordinated debt which in turn could result in lower yields and weaker financial covenants for new assets.

Pricing and Deal Structures: We believe that the volatility in global markets over the last several years and current macroeconomic issues including changes in bank regulations for middle-market banks has reduced access to, and availability of, debt capital to middle-market companies, causing a reduction in competition and generally more favorable capital structures and deal terms. Sizable recent capital raises in the private debt marketplace have created significantly increased competition over the last few years, reducing available pricing and creating less favorable capital structures; however, we believe that current market conditions for our target market may continue to create favorable opportunities to invest at attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Table of Contents

Market Environment: We believe middle market investments are attractive in market environments such as the current market environment where there is uncertainty around the overall direction of the economy and interest rates. Directly originated middle market loans have demonstrated the ability to outperform competing markets through varying economic cycles including downturns and prior periods of monetary policy tightening. Through the global financial crisis, the higher interest rate environment in 2005-2006, market bottom in 2008 and the subsequent recovery period, as well as throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, these investments have historically generated considerable yield premium with more favorable capital structures for lenders, resulting in higher returns when compared to the market for U.S. high yield bonds and U.S. traded loans.(1) Middle market direct lending also offers a natural hedge to higher interest rates with floating rate structures that benefit from higher interest rates, while providing broad diversification in an environment where there is a risk of increased default rate activity. Further, floating rate assets remain structurally advantaged by allowing investors to capture higher-for-longer base rates in current income while sidestepping the mark-to-market volatility inherent in fixed rate exposures. Throughout the first three quarters of 2026, the middle market experienced spread widening across all EBITDA segments, while leverage and loan-to-value attachment points continued to decrease. Notably, total equity contributions in middle market leveraged buyout deals in the third quarter of 2026 were up over 4% compared to the same period the prior year.(2) This dynamic continues to offer middle market direct lenders an opportunity to generate compelling risk-adjusted returns for investors. Despite a modest rebound in sponsored direct lending volumes in the third quarter of 2026, overall middle market deal activity has declined year over year throughout the first nine months of 2026, as lower M&A and refinancing volumes continue to reflect the uncertainty around interest rates and geopolitical conflict in the Middle East. In more tempered leveraged buyout and refinancing environments, scaled lenders can seek to deploy capital through incumbency lending, supporting existing portfolio companies that have demonstrated strong performance. This was evidenced by the uptick in middle market financing for add-on acquisition activity in the third quarter.(2) The combination of widening spreads, lower loan-to-value attachment points (supported by increased equity contributions from sponsors), and lower average leverage, more notably in the lower middle market, continue to present lender-favorable financing conditions. We believe this makes for an attractive opportunity for middle market direct lenders to selectively deploy capital in assets that have relatively attractive pricing and lower risk structures. That said, we note that a softening macroeconomic environment and lingering impact of inflationary pressures could result in increased default rates. If default rates become more prevalent, we would expect to experience decreased net interest income, lower yields and increased risk of credit loss. However, we believe that our portfolio is positioned well to navigate the potential risks noted above. Monroe Capital’s scale, product suite, diversification, and strong historical recovery rate track record will continue to allow us to find attractive investment opportunities and navigate this uncertain market environment.

In addition, certain semi-liquid private credit structures - including non-traded BDCs, interval funds, and non-traded closed-end funds - have recently experienced elevated repurchase and redemption requests, in some cases exceeding standard quarterly repurchase program limits and resulting in pro rata fulfillment of investor redemption requests. The convergence of elevated redemption activity represents a meaningful shift in the private credit competitive and market landscape from prior years and reinforces our belief that disciplined underwriting, portfolio diversification, and experienced credit management are critical differentiators in the current environment.

Recent Developments

Public Offering: On October 1, 2026, we sold 27,913 Class I shares in the Public Offering for aggregate consideration of $0.7 million. On November 2, 2026, we received proceeds of $2.0 million related to the issuance of additional Class I shares in the Public Offering to bring the total consideration we have received for stock issuances subsequent to September 30, 2026 to $2.7 million.

Table of Contents

Closing of the Private Offering of Class S and Class D Common Shares and Concurrent Note Offering: As of November 2, 2026, we issued and sold (1) 110 of our unregistered Class S shares and (2) 110 of our unregistered Class D shares, in each case at a per share price equal to the net asset value per share of the applicable class as of October 31, 2026, to be determined in accordance with the valuation policies and procedures of MC Advisors.

The offer and sale of the Class S shares and Class D shares were made pursuant to purchase agreements entered into by the Fund and each of 110 separate investors and were included with promissory notes each with a principal amount of $1 thousand (each a “Note” and collectively the “Notes”). We issued the Class S shares, the Class D shares, and the Notes on November 2, 2026 in private placement transactions (the “Private Offerings”) pursuant to certain exemptions under the Securities Act and the laws of the states and jurisdictions where any offering was made to investors who are “accredited investors” within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act. We received approximately $152 thousand in net proceeds from the Private Offerings.

The aggregate purchase price for each Note was $1 thousand per Note, which amount is inclusive of the purchase price of one Class S share or Class D share, as applicable. We will pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Notes at a rate of 12.00% per annum per Note, payable semi-annually in arrears. The Notes have a 30-year term. We may prepay some or all of the Notes at any time, in whole or in part, at any time on or following the date on which we have repurchased the Class S share or Class D share, as applicable, purchased by the holder of the Note in connection with the issuance of such Note, provided that (i) we will pay on the date of such prepayment all accrued and unpaid interest due on such prepaid principal amount and (ii) if the prepayment occurs prior to the 24-month anniversary of the original issue date of the Notes, we will pay on the date of such prepayment a one-time premium equal to $1 hundred per Note.

Distributions: On October 20, 2026, the Board declared a distribution of $0.187 per Class I share payable on or about November 24, 2026 to shareholders of record as of October 31, 2026.

Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of our 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.

Understanding our accounting policies and the extent to which we use management’s judgment and estimates in applying these policies is integral to understanding our financial statements. We describe our most significant accounting policies in Note 2 in our consolidated financial statements. Critical accounting policies are those that require the application of management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, often because of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain and that may change in subsequent periods. Management has utilized available information, including our past history, industry standards and the current economic environment, among other factors, in forming the estimates and judgments, giving due consideration to materiality. We have identified revenue recognition and the valuation of our investment portfolio, including our investment valuation policy (which has been approved by the Board), as our critical accounting policy and estimates. The critical accounting estimates should be read in conjunction with the risk factors as disclosed in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and in Item 1A. Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. See Note 2 to our interim consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 for more information on our critical accounting policies.

Table of Contents

Revenue Recognition

We record interest and fee income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt investments with contractual PIK interest, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. We do not accrue as a receivable interest on loans and debt investments if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. We may make exceptions to this policy and partially record interest if the loan has sufficient collateral value or is in process of collection and there is the expectation of collection of principal and a portion of the contractual interest. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and then we amortize such amounts using the effective interest method as interest income over the life of the investment. Upon the prepayment of a loan or debt investment, any unamortized premium or discount or loan origination fees are recorded as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt investments as interest income when we receive such amounts. Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual terms of debt and preferred equity investments. Interest is accrued on a daily basis. We record fees on loans based on the determination of whether the fee is considered a yield enhancement or payment for a service. If the fee is considered a yield enhancement associated with a funding of cash on a loan, the fee is generally deferred and recognized into interest income using the effective interest method if captured in the cost basis or using the straight-line method if the loan is unfunded and therefore there is no cost basis. If the fee is not considered a yield enhancement because a service was provided, and the fee is payment for that service, the fee is deemed earned and recorded as other income in the period the service is completed.

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

Non-accrual

Debt or preferred equity investments are placed on non-accrual status on a prospective basis when principal, interest or dividend payments become materially past due, or when there is reasonable doubt that principal, interest or dividends will be collected. Additionally, any original issue discount and 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 our judgment. Non-accrual debt or preferred equity investments are restored to accrual status when past due principal, interest, or dividends are paid, or are expected to be paid, and, in our judgment are likely to remain current. To the extent a debt or preferred equity investment is restructured, non-accrual status is reassessed post-restructuring in line with this non-accrual policy. We may make exceptions to this policy and partially record interest if the loan has sufficient collateral value or is in process of collection and there is the expectation of collection of principal and a portion of the contractual interest.

Valuation of Portfolio Investments

Pursuant to SEC Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated MC Advisors as our valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”). The Board is responsible for oversight of the Valuation Designee. The Valuation Designee has established a valuation committee to determine in good faith the fair value of our investments, based on input of the Valuation Designee’s management and personnel and independent valuation firms which are engaged at the direction of the valuation committee to assist in the valuation of certain portfolio investments lacking a readily available market quotation. The valuation committee determines fair values pursuant to a valuation policy approved by the Board and pursuant to a consistently applied valuation process.

Table of Contents

Under the valuation policy, the Valuation Designee values investments for which market quotations are readily available and within a recent date at such market quotations. When doing so, the Valuation Designee determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) to determine the fair value of the security. Debt and equity investments that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available or whose market prices are not regularly updated are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee. Because we expect that there will not be a readily available market for many of the investments in our portfolio, we expect to value many of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Valuation Designee using a documented valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. Such determination of fair values may involve subjective judgments and estimates. 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 our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.

With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Valuation Designee undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:

•our Valuation Designee engages independent valuation firms to conduct independent appraisals of a selection of investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Valuation Designee will consult with an independent valuation firm relative to each portfolio company at least once in every calendar year, but the independent appraisals are generally received quarterly for each investment;

•preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with the valuation committee of the Valuation Designee;

•the valuation conclusions are approved by the valuation committee of the Valuation Designee; and

•a report prepared by the Valuation Designee is presented to the Board quarterly to enable the Board to perform its oversight duties of the valuation process and the Valuation Designee.

The Valuation Designee generally uses the income approach to determine fair value for loans where market quotations are not readily available, as long as it is appropriate. If there is deterioration in credit quality or a debt investment is in workout status, the Valuation Designee may consider other factors in determining the fair value, including the value attributable to the debt investment from the enterprise value of the portfolio company or the proceeds that would be received in a liquidation analysis. This liquidation analysis may also include probability weighting of alternative outcomes. The Valuation Designee generally considers our debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance or is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing debt, the Valuation Designee considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Valuation Designee will evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the debt instrument.

Table of Contents

Under the income approach, discounted cash flow models are utilized to determine the present value of the future cash flow streams of our debt investments, based on future interest and principal payments as set forth in the associated loan agreements. In determining fair value under the income approach, the Valuation Designee also considers the following factors: applicable market yields and leverage levels, recent comparable transactions, public-market equivalents, credit indices, credit quality, prepayment penalties, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that generally may affect the price at which similar investments may be made. This includes calibration analysis from the initial closing of the investment and a reassessment of the inputs to the valuation model as market conditions and individual portfolio company performance change. Our active portfolio monitoring process assists in identifying any material changes in underlying portfolio company financial performance that may not yet be readily apparent through the financial performance reporting by the portfolio company, as those results may be received from the portfolio company on a lag from the fair value measurement date.

In addition, for certain investments, the Valuation Designee may base its valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that we and others may be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that we and others may be willing to accept. The Valuation Designee generally uses the midpoint of the bid/ask range as our best estimate of fair value of such investment.

As of September 30, 2026, our Valuation Designee determined, in good faith, the fair value of our investment portfolio in accordance with GAAP and our valuation policies and procedures based on the facts and circumstances known by us at that time, or reasonably expected to be known at that time.

Net Realized Gain or Loss and Net Change in Unrealized Gain or Loss

We measure realized gain or loss by the difference between the net proceeds from the sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized gain or loss previously recognized. Net change in unrealized gain or loss reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized gain or loss, when gain or loss is realized. Additionally, we do not isolate the change in fair value resulting from foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations from the changes in the fair values of the underlying investment. All fluctuations in fair value are included in net change in unrealized gain (loss) on investments on our consolidated statements of operations.

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement with MC Advisors, the incentive fee on capital gains earned on liquidated investments of our portfolio is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). This fee equals 12.5% of our incentive fee capital gains (i.e., our realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of the applicable period, net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis), less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gains incentive fees. On a quarterly basis, we accrue for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.

Table of Contents

While the Advisory Agreement with MC Advisors neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, pursuant to an interpretation of an American Institute for Certified Public Accountants Technical Practice Aid for investment companies, we include unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to MC Advisors if our entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though MC Advisors is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we accrued capital gains incentive fees of $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively, based on performance of our portfolio. All such fees were based on unrealized appreciation, none were payable to MC Advisors under the Advisory Agreement.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement-Reporting Comprehensive Income-Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (“ASU 2024-03”), which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, within relevant income statement captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning with the first quarter ending March 31, 2028. Early adoption and retrospective application are permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2024-03; however, we do not expect a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

In September 2026, the FASB issued ASU 2026-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Investment Companies with Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions (“ASU 2026-03”), which requires investment companies within the scope of ASC Topic 946 to incorporate contractual sale restrictions into the fair value measurement of equity securities and disclose the related discount. The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, and interim reporting periods within those annual periods. Early adoption is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of adopting ASU 2026-03; however, we do not expect a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk, interest rate risk, currency risk and inflation and supply chain risk. The prices of securities held by us may decline in response to certain events, including, without limitation, those directly involving the companies we invest in; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; legislative reform; local, regional, national or global political, social or economic instability, including related to elevated inflation; levels and uncertainty resulting from tariffs and trade policy changes; and interest rate fluctuations.

Valuation Risk

Because there is not a readily available market value for most of the investments in our portfolio, substantially all of our portfolio investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, as the valuation designee, in accordance with its established valuation policies and subject to oversight by our Board. 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 our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our 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 we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it. 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 than the unrealized gains or losses reflected in the valuations currently assigned. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies” as well as Notes 2 and 4 to our consolidated financial statements for the quarter ended September 30, 2026 for more information relating to our investment valuation.

In accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, our Board periodically assesses and manages material risks associated with the determination of the fair value of our investments.

Interest Rate Risk

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income is affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

In a prolonged low interest rate environment, the difference between the total interest income earned on interest earning assets and the total interest expense incurred on interest bearing liabilities may be compressed, reducing our net income and potentially adversely affecting our operating results. Conversely, in a rising interest rate environment, such difference could potentially increase thereby increasing our net income as indicated per the table below.

The majority of the loans in our portfolio have floating interest rates and we expect that our loans in the future may also have floating interest rates. These loans are usually based on a floating SOFR and typically have interest rate re-set provisions that adjust applicable interest rates under such loans to current market rates on a monthly or quarterly basis. The majority of the loans in our current portfolio have interest rate floors that will effectively convert the loans to fixed rate loans in the event interest rates decrease to a level below the applicable interest rate floor. In addition, our DB Credit Facility bears interest at a variable rate with no interest rate floors. We expect that other credit facilities into which we may enter in the future may also have floating interest rate provisions.

Table of Contents

Assuming that the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2026 was to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (in thousands):


Change in Interest Rates	Increase (decrease) in interest income		Increase (decrease) in interest expense		Net increase (decrease) in net investment income (1)
Down 300 basis points	$	(5,611)	$	(3,216)	$	(2,395)
Down 200 basis points	(3,935)		(2,144)		(1,791)
Down 100 basis points	(1,971)		(1,072)		(899)
Up 100 basis points	1,971		1,072		899
Up 200 basis points	3,943		2,144		1,799
Up 300 basis points	5,914		3,216		2,698

________________________________________________________

(1)Excludes the impact of income-based incentive fees. See Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements for more information on income-based incentive fees.

Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our existing sensitivity to interest rate changes, it does not adjust for changes in the credit market, credit quality, the size and composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments, including borrowings under our current or any future financing agreements that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, we can offer no assurances that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.

We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates or interest rate floors.

Currency Risk

We may also have exposure to foreign currencies (currently Australian dollars (AUD) and Canadian dollars (CAD)) related to certain investments. Such investments are translated into U.S. dollars based on the spot rate at each balance sheet date, exposing us to movements in the applicable exchange rate. In order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates, we may borrow in foreign currency under the DB Credit Facility to finance such investments or we may enter into foreign currency forward contracts. As of September 30, 2026, we had foreign currency forward contracts in place for AUD 6.4 million and CAD 3.0 million associated with future principal and interest payments on certain investments.

Inflation and Supply Chain Risk

U.S. inflation rates have fluctuated in recent periods and remain elevated in comparison to historical levels over the past several decades. Inflationary pressures have increased the costs of labor, energy and raw materials and have adversely affected consumer spending, economic growth and our portfolio companies' operations. Inflation is likely to continue to be elevated in the near to medium-term, particularly in the U.S., with the possibility that monetary policy may tighten in response. Persistent inflationary pressures could affect our portfolio companies’ profit margins and impact their ability to pay interest and principal on our loans, particularly if interest rates rise in response to inflation.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of September 30, 2026. Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

No change occurred in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we, our executive officers, trustees and our investment adviser, its affiliates and/or any of their respective principals and employees are subject to legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including those arising from our investments in our portfolio companies, and we may, as a result, incur significant costs and expenses in connection with such legal proceedings. Legal proceedings may increase to the extent we find it necessary to foreclose or otherwise enforce remedies with respect to any loans that are in default, which borrowers may seek to resist by asserting counterclaims and defenses, against us or our investment adviser. As of September 30, 2026, neither we, the Adviser, nor our subsidiaries were subject to any material pending legal proceedings.

We and our investment adviser are also subject to extensive regulation, which may, from time to time, result in requests for information from us or our investment adviser or regulatory proceedings or investigations against us or our investment adviser. We may incur significant costs and expenses in connection with any such information requests, proceedings or investigations.

While the outcome of any such future legal or regulatory proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, there can be no assurance whether any pending or future legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our or our investment adviser’s financial condition or results of operations in any future reporting period.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

You should carefully consider 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. In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors described in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025, filed with the SEC on March 9, 2026, and those set forth under the caption “Risk Factors” in our registration statement on Form N-2 relating to our Common Shares, which may, in the future, materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. There are no material changes during the quarter ended September 30, 2026 to the risk factors discussed in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

The risks and uncertainties described in our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 and in our registration statement on Form N-2 relating to our Common Shares are not the only ones we may face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. If any of the risks listed in our annual report on Form 10-K or our registration statement on Form N-2 (including any post-effective amendments thereto) relating to our Common Shares actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, you may lose all or part of your investment.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds

We did not sell any equity securities during the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that were not registered under the Securities Act. Similarly, we did not repurchase any shares of our equity securities during the quarter ended September 30, 2026.
