FOURTH QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

  • Net investment income decreased to $0.20 per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2025 from $0.22 per common share for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.
  • Net loss on investments of $1.01 per common share for the quarter ended December 31, 2025, primarily comprised of net unrealized depreciation of $0.96 per common share. See additional information under “Results of Operations” below.

  • As of December 31, 2025, based on fair value, 89% of our loan portfolio consisted of floating rate loans and 100% of our loan portfolio consisted of first and second lien loans.
  • For the quarter ended December 31, 2025, our investment portfolio’s weighted-average performing income yield increased to 13.5% from 13.3% during the quarter ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to an increase in earned yields on our structured finance securities.

As of December 31, 2025, based on fair value, our investment portfolio was comprised of the following:

  • Total investments of $342.0 million, which was equal to approximately 104% of amortized cost;
  • Debt investments of $179.8 million, of which 95% and 5% were first lien loans and second lien loans, respectively;
  • Equity investments of $100.6 million; and
  • Structured finance securities of $61.6 million.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, a loan to a portfolio company with an amortized cost and fair value of $6.8 million and $4.1 million, respectively, was placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, we restructured a loan to a portfolio company with an amortized cost and fair value of $13.5 million and $5.3 million, respectively, which had been on non-accrual status, in exchange for a combination of a new loan and equity in the portfolio company. Our existing zero-basis equity investment in the portfolio company was also extinguished upon the exchange. Following the restructuring, the loan we received with an amortized cost and fair value of $3.8 million and $3.8 million, respectively, was placed on accrual status. As of December 31, 2025, our loan portfolio had non-accrual loans with an aggregate fair value of $14.4 million, or 4.2% of our total investments at fair value.

OUTSTANDING DEBT

During the quarters ended December 31, 2025 and September 30, 2025, the average dollar borrowings and weighted-average effective interest rate for our debt were as follows ($ in millions):

Investment Income

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, total investment income decreased by $1.2 million compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to a decrease in non-recurring income (cash dividends, other interest income and syndication fees), the impact of interest rate cuts, and a smaller performing interest-bearing portfolio.

Expenses

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, total expenses decreased by $0.9 million compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2025, primarily due to decreases in the incentive fees of $0.6 million and interest expense of $0.3 million.

Net Gain (Loss) on Investments

During the quarter ended December 31, 2025, our portfolio experienced net losses of $13.5 million, primarily due to net unrealized depreciation of $8.3 million on our current non-accrual debt investments and $3.4 million on our Structured Finance Securities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of December 31, 2025, we had $3.4 million of cash and cash equivalents.

As of December 31, 2025, we had an unused commitment of $20.5 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility with Banc of California, subject to the terms of the borrowing base and other covenants. On January 9, 2026, we amended the Banc of California Credit Facility to extend the maturity date from February 28, 2026 to February 28, 2028.

On February 18, 2026, our indirect, wholly owned subsidiary, OFSCC-FS, LLC, entered into a revolving credit and security agreement with Natixis, New York Branch, which provides for borrowings in an aggregate principal amount up to $80,000,000. Borrowings under the Natixis credit facility will bear interest at a rate based on Term SOFR for the applicable one- or three-month interest period, plus an applicable spread. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. Any amounts borrowed under the Natixis credit facility will mature, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereunder will be due and payable, on the earlier of: (i) February 18, 2031; or (ii) upon the occurrence of certain other events that result in accelerated maturity under the Natixis credit facility.

On February 18, 2026, in connection with the closing of the Natixis credit facility, OFSCC-FS repaid in full all outstanding obligations due, and terminated all commitments, under its credit facility with BNP Paribas. All liens securing the BNP credit facility were released upon such repayment.

As of December 31, 2025, we had outstanding commitments to fund various undrawn revolvers and other credit facilities of portfolio companies totaling $13.2 million.
