Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

June 30, 2026

1. Organization and Nature of Operations

BlackRock Direct Lending Corp. (the “Company”) is a Delaware corporation formed on October 12, 2020 as an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. The Company elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Company’s investment objective is to achieve high risk-adjusted returns produced from current income generated by investing primarily in senior secured corporate debt instruments. The Company invests primarily in middle-market companies headquartered in North America. The Company commenced operations on November 30, 2020.

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, the Company will not be taxed on its income to the extent that it distributes such income each year and satisfies other applicable income tax requirements.

BlackRock Capital Investment Advisors, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of BlackRock, Inc., serves as the advisor of the Company (the "Advisor"). BlackRock Financial Management, Inc. serves as the administrator of the Company (the “Administrator”), and is affiliated with the Advisor. Company management consists of the Advisor and the Company’s board of directors (the "Board of Directors"). The Advisor directs and executes the day-to-day operations of the Company, subject to oversight from the Board of Directors, which sets the broad policies of the Company. The Board of Directors of the Company has delegated investment management of the Company’s assets to the Advisor. The Board of Directors consists of four persons, three of whom are independent.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The Company is an investment company following accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies of the Company.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods presented. Although management believes these estimates and assumptions to be reasonable, actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.

Investment Valuation

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 (the “Rule”) under the 1940 Act, the Board of Directors designated the Advisor as the Company's valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to perform certain fair value functions, including performing fair value determinations and has approved policies and procedures adopted by the Advisor to seek to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Rule.

Investments are recorded at fair value in accordance with GAAP, based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in the policies adopted by the Valuation Designee and approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is generally defined as the amount for which an investment would be sold in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

All investments are valued at least quarterly based on quotations or other affirmative pricing from independent third-party sources, with the exception of investments priced directly by the Valuation Designee which in the aggregate comprise less than 5% of the capitalization of the Company. Investments listed on a recognized exchange or market quotation system, whether U.S. or foreign, are valued using the closing price on the date of valuation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)

Investments not listed on a recognized exchange or market quotation system, but for which reliable market quotations are readily available are valued using prices provided by a nationally recognized pricing service or by using quotations from broker-dealers.

Investments for which market quotations are either not readily available or are determined to be unreliable are priced at fair value using affirmative valuations performed by independent valuation services approved by the Valuation Designee or, for investments aggregating less than 5% of the total assets of the Company, using valuations determined directly by the Valuation Designee. Such valuations are determined under documented valuation policies and procedures reviewed and approved by a committee established by the Valuation Designee (the “Valuation Committee”).

Generally, to increase objectivity in valuing the investments, the Valuation Designee will utilize external measures of value, such as public markets or third-party transactions, whenever possible. The Valuation Designee’s valuation is not based on long-term work-out value, immediate liquidation value, nor incremental value for potential changes that may take place in the future. The values assigned to investments are based on available information and do not necessarily represent amounts that might ultimately be realized, as these amounts depend on future circumstances and cannot reasonably be determined until the individual investments are actually liquidated. Such circumstances may include macroeconomic, geopolitical and other events and conditions that may significantly impact the profitability or viability of businesses in which the Company is invested, and therefore may significantly impact the return on the Company’s investments. The foregoing policies apply to all investments, including any in companies and groups of affiliated companies aggregating more than 5% of the Company’s assets.

Fair valuations of investments in each asset class are determined using one or more methodologies including market quotations, the market approach, income approach, or, in the case of recent investments, the cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets. Such information may include observed multiples of earnings and/or revenues at which transactions in securities of comparable companies occur, with appropriate adjustments for differences in company size, operations or other factors affecting comparability.

The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present value amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The discount rates used for such analyses reflect market yields for comparable investments, considering such factors as relative credit quality, capital structure, and other factors.

In following these approaches, the types of factors that may be taken into account also include, as relevant: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, comparable costs of capital, the principal market in which the investment trades and enterprise values, among other factors.

Investments may be categorized based on the types of inputs used in valuing such investments. The level in the GAAP valuation hierarchy in which an investment falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation of the investment in its entirety. Transfers between levels are recognized as of the beginning of the reporting period.

At June 30, 2026, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows:


Level	Basis for Determining Fair Value	Bank Debt (1)		Equity Securities		Total
2	Other direct and indirect observable market inputs (2)	$	2,636,146	$	—	$	2,636,146

	$	188,391,528

Weighted by fair value

Certain fair value measurements may employ more than one valuation technique, with each valuation technique receiving a relative weight between 0% and 100%. Generally, a change in an unobservable input may result in a change to the value of an investment as follows:


Input	Impact to Value if Input Increases	Impact to Value if Input Decreases
Discount rate	Decrease	Increase
Revenue multiples	Increase	Decrease
EBITDA multiples	Increase	Decrease
Book value multiples	Increase	Decrease
Implied volatility	Increase	Decrease
Term	Increase	Decrease
Yield	Increase	Decrease

During the six months ended June 30, 2026, fourteen senior debt positions with an aggregate fair value of $12.4 million transitioned from an income approach to an expected recovery valuation model and eleven senior debt positions with an aggregate fair value of $2.9 million transitioned from an expected recovery valuation model to an income approach. The change in approach was driven by considerations given to the financial performance of the portfolio company.

Changes in investments categorized as Level 3 during the three months ended June 30, 2026 were as follows:

Investment Transactions

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date, except for private transactions that have conditions to closing, which are recorded on the closing date. The cost of investments purchased is based upon the purchase price plus those professional fees which are specifically identifiable to the investment transaction. Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded based on the specific identification method, which typically allocates the highest cost inventory to the basis of investments sold.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash consists of amounts held in accounts with the custodian bank. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments with an original maturity of generally 60 days or less and may not be insured by the FDIC or may exceed federally insured limits. Cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 in the GAAP valuation hierarchy. At June 30, 2026, included in cash and cash equivalents was $25.8 million (11.6% of net assets) held in the JPMorgan U.S. Treasury Plus Money Market Fund with a 7-day yield of 3.50%. At December 31, 2025, included in cash and cash equivalents was $45.4 million (17.4% of net assets) held in the JPMorgan U.S. Treasury Plus Money Market Fund with a 7-day yield of 3.63%. There was no restricted cash at June 30, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

Restricted Investments

The Company may invest without limitation in instruments that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These instruments generally may be resold to institutional investors in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these investments may involve time-consuming negotiations and additional expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. Information regarding restricted investments is included at the end of the Schedules of Investments. Restricted investments, including any restricted investments in affiliates, are valued in accordance with the investment valuation policies discussed above.

Foreign Currency Investments

The Company may invest in instruments traded in foreign countries and denominated in foreign currencies. Such positions are converted at the respective closing foreign exchange rates in effect at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025 and reported in U.S. dollars. Purchases and sales of investments and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies, when they occur, are translated into U.S. dollars based on the foreign exchange rates in effect on the respective dates of such transactions. The portion of gains and losses on foreign investments resulting from fluctuations in foreign currencies is included in net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments. The Company did not hold any investments denominated in foreign currency at June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025.

Investments in foreign companies and securities of foreign governments may involve special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and securities of the U.S. Government. These risks include, among other things, revaluation of currencies, less reliable information about issuers, different transaction clearance and settlement practices, and potential future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, investments in foreign companies and securities of foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.

Organization and Offering Costs

Costs incurred to organize the Company are expensed as incurred. During the period from November 30, 2020 (inception) to December 31, 2025, the Company incurred $71,685 in organizational expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2026, the Company did not incur any additional organizational expenses. From November 30, 2020 through June 30, 2026, the Company had incurred a total of $267,621 in offering costs, all of which has been charged to paid-in capital. The Company will not bear more than $1.0 million for organization and offering costs

Deferred Debt Issuance Costs

Certain costs incurred in connection with the issuance of debt of the Company were capitalized and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated life of the respective instruments. The impact of utilizing the straight-line amortization method versus the effective-interest method is not material to the operations of the Company.

Revenue Recognition

Interest and dividend income, including income paid in kind, is recorded on an accrual basis, when such amounts are considered collectible. Origination, structuring, closing, commitment and other upfront fees, including original issue discounts, earned with respect to capital commitments are generally amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment, as are end-of-term or exit fees receivable upon repayment of a debt investment. Other fees, including certain amendment fees, prepayment fees and commitment fees on broken deals, are recognized as earned. Prepayment fees and similar income due upon the early repayment of a loan or debt security are recognized when earned and are included in interest income.

Certain debt investments are purchased at a discount to par as a result of the underlying credit risks and financial results of the issuer, as well as general market factors that influence the financial markets as a whole. Discounts on the acquisition of corporate bonds are generally amortized using the effective-interest or constant-yield method assuming there are no questions as to collectability. When principal payments on a loan are received in an amount in excess of the loan’s amortized cost, the excess principal payments are recorded as interest income.

the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected. The Company may opt not to place a distressed debt investment on non-accrual status if principal and interest are secured through sufficient collateral value and are in the process of collection through legal actions or other efforts that are expected to result in repayment of principal and interest.

Income Taxes

The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), pertaining to regulated investment companies and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income taxes. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes is required in the financial statements. In accordance with ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes, the Company recognizes in its financial statements the effect of a tax position when it is determined that such position is more likely than not, based on the technical merits, to be sustained upon examination.

The tax returns of the Company remain open for examination by tax authorities for a period of three years from the date they are filed. No such examinations are currently pending. Management has analyzed tax laws and regulations and their application to the company as of June 30, 2026, inclusive of the open tax return years, and does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability in the financial statements.

The final tax characterization of distributions is determined after the fiscal year and is reported on Form 1099 and in the Company’s annual report to stockholders. Distributions can be characterized as ordinary income, capital gains and/or return of capital. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had no non-expiring capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains.

As of December 31, 2025, gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation for investments and derivatives based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes were as follows:


	December 31, 2025
Tax Cost	$	234,150,097

Gross Unrealized Appreciation		2,759,649
Gross Unrealized Depreciation		(26,853,853	)
Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)	$	(24,094,204	)

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The Company considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates (“ASU”) issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”). ASUs not listed were assessed by the Company and either determined to be not applicable or expected to have minimal impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which intends to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and permits early adoption. The Company adopted the ASU 2023-09 for the annual reporting period beginning on January 1, 2025 and concluded that the application of this guidance did not have any material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 2200-40),” which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, in each relevant expense caption. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption and retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance, however, the Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

3. Management Fees, Incentive Fees and Other Expenses

On November 30, 2020, the Company entered into an investment management agreement with the Advisor (the “Investment Management Agreement”). Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor, for its service to the Company, is entitled to receive a management fee from the Company and an incentive fee. The management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.90% of the Company’s total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and payable quarterly in arrears. For the period from the date the Company first issued shares of common stock to one or more investors (other than the Advisor and its affiliates) through the end of the first calendar quarter, no management fee was payable. Subsequently, the management fee is calculated based on the value of the Company’s total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. The management fees for any partial quarter are appropriately prorated.

The incentive fee is only incurred to the extent the Company’s cumulative total return (after the incentive fee) exceeds a 6% annual rate on daily weighted-average unreturned capital contributions. Subject to that limitation, the incentive fee is calculated on net investment income (before incentive fee) and net realized gains (net of any unrealized depreciation) at a rate of 12.5%. The incentive fee is computed as the difference between the incentive fee earned and incentive fee paid, subject to the total return hurdle, on a cumulative basis, and is payable quarterly in arrears. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cumulative performance did not exceed the total return hurdle and, as a result, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026. As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s cumulative performance did not exceed the total return hurdle, and as such, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three months ended June 30, 2025. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, $0.4 million out of the potential $1.5 million incentive fees was earned.

There were no incentive fees on capital gains accrued on a hypothetical liquidation basis (but not payable) under GAAP for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. There can be no assurance that unrealized capital appreciation and depreciation will be realized in the future, or that any accrued capital gains incentive fee will become payable under the Investment Management Agreement. Incentive fee amounts on capital gains actually paid by the Company will specifically exclude consideration of unrealized capital appreciation, consistent with requirements under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”) and the Investment Management Agreement.

The Company bears all expenses incurred in connection with its business, including fees and expenses of outside contracted services, such as custodian, administrative, legal, audit and tax preparation fees, costs of valuing investments, insurance costs, brokers’ and finders’ fees relating to investments, and any other transaction costs associated with the purchase and sale of investments.

4. Debt

Debt is comprised of unsecured promissory notes with a principal amount of $110,000 maturing on December 31, 2050. Prior to being repaid and terminated on June 14, 2024, debt included a $75.0 million Capital Call Facility. Outstanding debt is carried at amortized cost in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. As of June 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of the outstanding debt approximated its carrying value.

On December 11, 2020, the Company issued to each of 110 separate investors an unsecured promissory note with a principal amount of $1,000, at par. The Company pays interest on the unpaid principal amount of the notes at a rate of 12.00% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. The notes mature on December 31, 2050.

Total expenses related to debt included the following:


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2026		2025
Interest expense	$	6,600	$	6,600
Amortization of deferred debt issuance costs		268		268
Commitment fees		—		—
Total	$	6,868	$	6,868

5. Commitments, Contingencies, Concentration of Credit Risk and Off-Balance Sheet Risk

The Company conducts business with brokers and dealers that are primarily headquartered in New York and Los Angeles and are members of the major securities exchanges. Banking activities are conducted with a firm headquartered in the Boston area.

In the normal course of business, investment activities involve executions, settlement and financing of various transactions resulting in receivables from, and payables to, brokers, dealers, and the custodian. These activities may expose the Company to risk in the event that such parties are unable to fulfill contractual obligations. Management does not anticipate any material losses from counterparties with whom it conducts business. Consistent with standard business practice, the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications and is engaged from time to time in various legal actions. The maximum exposure under these arrangements and activities is unknown. However, management expects the risk of material loss to be remote.

The Company’s chief executive officer and chief financial officer act as the Company’s chief operating decision maker (the “CODM”). The CODM is responsible for assessing performance, allocating resources and making operating decisions of the Company based on the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations (“net income”) of the Company. The CODM has concluded that the Company 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. In addition to numerous other factors and metrics, the CODM utilizes net income as a key metric in determining the amount of dividends to be distributed to the Company’s shareholders. As the Company’s operations comprise of a single reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Statements of Assets and Liabilities as “total assets” and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Statements of Operations.

Overview

The Company is a Delaware corporation formed on October 12, 2020 and is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Our investment objective is to achieve high risk-adjusted returns produced primarily from current income generated by investing primarily in senior secured corporate debt instruments. We seek to achieve our investment objective through investments in privately-originated, performing senior secured debt primarily in North America-based companies with target enterprise values between $100 million and $1.5 billion. Performing debt is debt that at the time of investment is not defaulted or, in the view of the

Advisor, distressed. The Company targets positions in first lien, second lien and unitranche debt, with a preference for floating-rate debt, which the Advisor believes provides flexibility to adapt to changing market conditions. The Company may invest in securities of any maturity and credit quality. Our investment activities will benefit from what we believe are the competitive advantages of our Advisor, including its diverse in-house skills, proprietary deal flow, and consistent and rigorous investment process focused on established, middle-market companies.

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a RIC, the Company will not be taxed on its income to the extent that it distributes such income each year and satisfies other applicable income tax requirements.

To qualify as a RIC, we must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to our stockholders generally at least 90% of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), for each year. Pursuant to this election, we generally will not have to pay corporate level taxes on any income that we distribute to our stockholders provided that we satisfy those requirements.

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.

As a BDC, we are required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. For instance, we generally have to invest at least 70% of our total assets in “qualifying assets,” including securities and indebtedness of private U.S. companies, public U.S. operating companies whose securities are not listed on a national securities exchange or registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”), public domestic operating companies having a market capitalization of less than $250.0 million, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. Government securities and high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. We are also permitted to make certain follow-on investments in companies that were eligible portfolio companies at the time of initial investment but that no longer meet the definition. As of June 30, 2026, 90.8% of our total assets were invested in qualifying assets.

Revenues

We generate revenues primarily in the form of interest on the debt we hold. We also generate revenue from dividends on our equity interests, capital gains on the disposition of investments, and certain lease, fee, and other income. Our investments in fixed income instruments generally have an expected maturity of three to five years, although we have no lower or upper constraint on maturity. Interest on our debt investments is generally payable quarterly or semi-annually. Payments of principal of our debt investments may be amortized over the stated term of the investment, deferred for several years or due entirely at maturity. In some cases, our debt investments and preferred stock investments may defer payments of cash interest or dividends or payment-in-kind (“PIK”). Any outstanding principal amount of our debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest will generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of prepayment fees, commitment, origination, structuring or due diligence fees, end-of-term or exit fees, fees for providing significant managerial assistance, consulting fees and other investment related income.

Expenses

The Company is responsible for paying the compensation of the Advisor. In addition, the Company is generally responsible for all operating expenses of the Company, and shall pay, and shall reimburse the Advisor or BlackRock Financial Management, Inc., our administrator (the “Administrator”) and their respective affiliates for, all fees, costs, expenses, liabilities and obligations of the Company relating or attributable to:

•

our organization;

•

calculating our net asset value (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firms);

•

interest payable on debt, if any, incurred to finance our investments;

•

the base management fee and any incentive fee;

•

dividends and distributions on our shares of common stock;

•

administration fees payable under the administration agreement with the Administrator (the “Administration Agreement”);

•

fees payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making investments;

•

transfer agent and custodial fees;

•

registration fees;

•

taxes;

•

director fees and expenses;

•

costs of preparing and filing reports or other documents with the SEC;

•

costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to our stockholders, including printing costs;

•

our fidelity bond;

•

directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums;

•

indemnification payments;

•

direct costs and expenses of administration, including audit and legal costs; and

•

all other expenses reasonably incurred by us and the Administrator in connection with administering our business, such as the allocable portion of overhead under the Administration Agreement, including rent and other allocable portions of the cost of certain of our officers and their respective staffs.

The investment management agreement with the Advisor (the “Investment Management Agreement”) provides that the base management fee be calculated at an annual rate of 0.90% of our total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) on the last day of each preceding calendar quarter and is payable quarterly in arrears. For purposes of calculating the base management fee, “total assets” is determined without deduction for any borrowings or other liabilities. No base management fee is payable for the period from the date of the initial drawdown purchase through the end of the first calendar quarter after the initial drawdown purchase. Subsequently, the base management fee is calculated based on the value of our total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) at the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. The base management fee for any partial quarter is appropriately prorated.

Additionally, the Investment Management Agreement provides that the Advisor or its affiliates may be entitled to an incentive fee under certain circumstances. According to the terms of such agreement, the incentive fee equals the sum of (i) 12.5% of all net investment income and (ii) 12.5% of all net realized capital gains (net of any net unrealized capital depreciation) less net investment income incentive fee and capital gains incentive fee previously paid. However, incentive fee will only be paid to the extent the cumulative total return of the Company after incentive fee and including such payment would equal or exceed a 6% annual return on daily weighted-average contributed common equity. The determination of incentive fee is subject to limitations under the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act.

Critical accounting policies and estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). The preparation of these financial statements requires management 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. Management considers the following critical accounting policies important to understanding the financial statements. In addition to the discussion below, our critical accounting policies are further described in the notes to our financial statements.

Valuation of portfolio investments

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 (the “Rule”) under the 1940 Act, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) designated the Advisor as the Company’s valuation designee (the “Valuation Designee”) to perform certain fair value functions, including performing fair value determinations and has approved policies and procedures adopted by the Advisor to seek to ensure compliance with the requirements of the Rule.

We value our portfolio investments at fair value based upon the principles and methods of valuation set forth in policies and procedures reviewed and approved by a committee established by the Valuation Designee (the “Valuation Committee”) and approved by the Board of Directors. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Market participants are buyers and sellers in the principal (or most advantageous) market for the asset that (i) are independent of us, (ii) are knowledgeable, having a reasonable understanding about the asset based on all available information (including information that might be obtained through due diligence efforts that are usual and customary), (iii) are able to transact for the asset, and (iv) are willing to transact for the asset or liability (that is, they are motivated but not forced or otherwise compelled to do so).

Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at such market quotations unless the quotations are deemed not to represent fair value. We generally obtain market quotations from recognized exchanges, market quotation systems, independent pricing services or one or more broker-dealers or market makers. However, short term debt investments with original maturities of generally three months or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Debt and equity securities for which market quotations are not readily available, which is the case for many of our investments, or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value, are valued at fair value using a consistently applied valuation process in accordance with our documented valuation policies and procedures reviewed and approved by the Valuation Committee. Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity 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 may differ materially from the values that we may ultimately realize. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events may have differing impacts on the market quotations used to value some of our investments than on the fair values of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available. Market quotations may be deemed not to represent fair value in certain circumstances where we believe that facts and circumstances applicable to an issuer, a seller or purchaser, or the market for a particular security cause current market quotations to not reflect the fair value of the security. Examples of these events could include cases where a security trades infrequently causing a quoted purchase or sale price to become stale, where there is a “forced” sale by a distressed seller, where market quotations vary substantially among market makers, or where there is a wide bid-ask spread or significant increase in the bid-ask spread.

The valuation process approved by the Valuation Designee with respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value is as follows:

•

The investment professionals of the Valuation Designee provide recent portfolio company financial statements and other reporting materials to independent valuation firms approved by the Valuation Committee.

•

Such firms evaluate this information along with relevant observable market data to conduct independent appraisals each quarter, and their preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and discussed with senior management of the Valuation Designee.

•

The fair value of smaller investments comprising in the aggregate less than 5% of our total capitalization may be determined by the Valuation Designee in good faith in accordance with our valuation policy without the employment of an independent valuation firm.

•

The Valuation Designee determines the fair value of the remainder of investments in our portfolio in good faith based on
the input of the Valuation Committee and the respective independent valuation firms.

Those investments for which market quotations are not readily available or for which market quotations are deemed not to represent fair value are valued utilizing one or more methodologies, including the market approach, the income approach, or in the case of recent investments, the cost approach, as appropriate. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities (including a business). The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts (for example, cash flows or earnings) to a single present amount (discounted). The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. In following these approaches, the types of factors that the Valuation Designee may take into account in determining the fair value of our investments include, as relevant and among other factors: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and multiples, security covenants, call protection provisions, information rights, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, merger and acquisition comparables, our principal market (as the reporting entity) and enterprise values.

When valuing all of our investments, we strive to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of us. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect our assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

Our investments may be categorized based on the types of inputs used in their valuation. The level in the GAAP valuation hierarchy in which an investment falls is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation of the investment in its entirety. Investments are classified by GAAP into the three broad levels as follows:

Level 1 — Investments valued using unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.

Level 2 — Investments valued using other unadjusted observable market inputs, e.g. quoted prices in markets that are not active or quotes for comparable instruments.

Level 3 — Investments that are valued using quotes and other observable market data to the extent available, but which also take into consideration one or more unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation taken as a whole.

As of June 30, 2026, none of our investments were categorized as Level 1, 1.4% were categorized as Level 2 and 98.6% were Level 3 investments valued based on valuations by independent third-party sources.

As of December 31, 2025, none of our investments were categorized as Level 1, 1.8% were categorized as Level 2 and 98.2% were Level 3 investments valued based on valuations by independent third-party sources.

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

Revenue recognition

Certain of our debt investments are purchased at a discount to par as a result of the underlying credit risks and financial results of the issuer, as well as general market factors that influence the financial markets as a whole. Discounts on the acquisition of corporate bonds are generally amortized using the effective-interest or constant-yield method assuming there are no questions as to collectability. When principal payments on a loan are received in an amount in excess of the loan’s amortized cost, the excess principal payments are recorded as interest income.

Debt investments are generally placed on non-accrual status when it is probable that principal or interest will not be collected according to the contractual terms. When a debt investment is placed on non-accrual status, accrued and unpaid interest (including any accrued PIK interest) is generally reversed, and discount accretion or premium amortization is discontinued. The Company does not reverse previously capitalized PIK income. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the Company’s judgment regarding collectability of the outstanding principal and interest. Non-accrual investments are restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid or, in the Company’s judgement, the repayment of the remaining contractual principal and interest is expected. The Company may opt not to place a distressed debt investment on non-accrual status if principal and interest are secured through sufficient collateral value and are in the process of collection through legal actions or other efforts that are expected to result in repayment of principal and interest.

Net realized gains or losses and net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation

We measure realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized. Realized gains and losses are computed using the specific identification method. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Portfolio and investment activity

During the three months ended June 30, 2026, we invested approximately $3.5 million, comprised of an investment in 1 existing portfolio company. Of these investments, $3.5 million, or 100.0% of total acquisitions, were in senior secured loans.

Results of operations

Investment income

Investment income totaled $5.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, of which $4.9 million and $6.2 million were attributable to interest and fees on our debt investments, as well as PIK income of $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The decrease in investment income in the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily reflects the decrease in portfolio size and decrease in interest income due to lower SOFR rates.

Investment income totaled $11.0 million and $13.8 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, of which $10.3 million and $12.6 million were attributable to interest and fees on our debt investments, as well as PIK income of $0.7 million and $1.2 million, respectively.

Net investment income (loss)

Net investment income was $4.5 million and $5.9 million respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. The decrease in net investment income reflects lower investment income, offset by lower operating expenses during the three months ended June 30, 2026 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Net investment income was $9.3 million and $11.6 million respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s cumulative performance did not exceed the total return hurdle and, as a result, no incentive compensation was accrued for the three months ended June 30, 2026. In addition, we did not accrue any reserves for incentive fees on capital gains based on a hypothetical liquidation basis in accordance with GAAP for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Incentive fees for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 were $0.0 million and $0.4 million, respectively.

In addition, we did not accrue any reserves for incentive fees on capital gains based on a hypothetical liquidation basis in accordance with GAAP for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Income tax expense, including excise tax

The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, timely distribute to its stockholders generally at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. The Company has made and intends to continue to make the requisite distributions to its stockholders which will generally relieve the Company from U.S. federal income taxes.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may choose to carry forward taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions from such current year taxable income into the next tax year and pay a 4% excise tax on such income. Any excise tax expense is incurred at year end as such amounts are known. No excise tax was incurred nor paid in the three and six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations

The net increase (decrease) in net assets applicable to common stockholders resulting from operations was $0.6 million and $1.8 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

The net increase (decrease) in net assets applicable to common stockholders resulting from operations was $0.6 million and $5.3 million respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.

Liquidity and capital resources

Our liquidity and capital resources are expected to be generated primarily through the initial private placement of shares of the Company's common stock and cash flows from operations, including investments sales and repayments and income earned from investments and cash equivalents. The primary uses of cash have been investments in portfolio companies, payments to service our debt and other general corporate purposes.

The following table summarizes the total shares issued and proceeds received in connection with the Company’s private placement for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025.


	Six Months Ended June 30,

Net of offering costs of $17,841, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2026 included unsecured promissory notes with a principal amount of $110,000, at a rate of 12% per annum, and a maturity date of December 31, 2050.

Under Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act, prior to March 23, 2018, a BDC was generally not permitted to issue senior securities unless after giving effect thereto the BDC met a coverage ratio of total assets, less liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities, to total senior securities, which includes all borrowings of the BDC, of at least 200%. On March 23, 2018, the Small Business Credit Availability Act (“SBCAA”) was signed into law, which among other things, amended Section 61(a) of the 1940 Act to add a new Section 61(a)(2) that reduces the asset coverage requirement applicable to BDCs from 200% to 150% so long as the BDC meets certain disclosure requirements and obtains certain approvals. The reduced asset coverage requirement would permit a BDC to have a ratio of total outstanding indebtedness to common equity of 2:1 as compared to a maximum of 1:1 under the 200% asset coverage requirement. The Company does not currently intend to seek approval for the modified asset coverage ratio election set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, as amended by the SBCAA. As of June 30, 2026, the Company’s asset coverage ratio was 201,608%.

Net cash provided by operating activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $22.4 million, consisting primarily of net investment income (net of non-cash income and expenses) of approximately $8.3 million, and settlement of acquisitions of investments (net of dispositions) of $14.1 million

Net cash used in financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 was $39.8 million, consisting of $29.3 million in return of capital distribution to shareholders and $10.5 million of dividends paid to shareholders.

At June 30, 2026 we had $29.8 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Contractual obligations

We have entered into several contracts under which we have future commitments. Pursuant the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor manages our day-to-day operations and provides investment advisory services to us. Payments under the Investment Management Agreement are equal to a percentage of the value of our total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents) and an incentive fee, plus reimbursement of certain expenses incurred by the Advisor. Under our Administration Agreement, the Administrator provides us with administrative services, facilities and personnel. Payments under the Administration Agreement are equal to an allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations to us, and may include rent and our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our officers and their respective staffs. We are responsible for reimbursing the Advisor for due diligence and negotiation expenses, fees and expenses of custodians, administrators, transfer and distribution agents, counsel and directors, insurance, filings and registrations, proxy expenses, expenses of communications to investors, compliance expenses, interest, taxes, portfolio transaction expenses, costs of responding to regulatory inquiries and reporting to regulatory authorities, costs and expenses of preparing and maintaining our books and records, indemnification, litigation and other extraordinary expenses and such other expenses as are approved by the directors as being reasonably related to our organization, offering, capitalization, operation or administration and any portfolio investments, as applicable. The Advisor is not responsible for any of the foregoing expenses and such services are not investment advisory services under the 1940 Act. The Company may terminate each of the Investment Management Agreement and Administration Agreement without penalty upon not less than 60 days’ written notice to the other party and the Advisor and the Administrator may terminate the Investment Management Agreement or Administration Agreement, as applicable, without penalty upon not less than 120 days’ written notice to the other party.

Distributions

Our quarterly dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Distributions are declared considering our estimate of annual taxable income available for distribution to stockholders and the amount of taxable income carried over from the prior year for distribution in the current year. We do not have a policy to pay distributions at a specific level and expect

to continue to distribute substantially all of our taxable income. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions or distributions at a particular level.

The following tables summarize dividends declared for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025. Tax characteristics of any distributions are reported to stockholders on Form 1099-DIV or Form 1042-S after the end of the calendar year.


Date Declared	Record Date	Payment Date	Type	Amount Per Share		Total Amount
March 30, 2026	March 30, 2026	March 31, 2026	Return of Capital	$	1.00	$	29,275,589

We have elected to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to maintain favorable RIC tax treatment, we must distribute annually to our stockholders at least 90% of our ordinary income and realized net short-term capital gains in excess of realized net long-term capital losses, if any, out of the assets legally available for distribution. In order to avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of:

•

98% of our ordinary income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for the calendar year;

•

98.2% of the amount by which our capital gains exceed our capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period generally ending on October 31 of the calendar year; and

•

certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax.

We may, at our discretion, carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on this income. If we choose to do so, all other things being equal, this would increase expenses and reduce the amounts available to be distributed to our stockholders. We will accrue excise tax on estimated taxable income as required. In addition, although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually, out of the assets legally available for such distributions, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make dividends and distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these dividends and distributions from time to time. Also, we may be limited in our ability to make dividends and distributions due to the asset coverage test applicable to us as a BDC under the 1940 Act and due to provisions in our existing and future credit facilities. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse tax consequences, including possible loss of favorable RIC tax treatment. In addition, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and tax regulations, we include in income certain amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as PIK interest, which represents contractual interest added to the loan balance that becomes due at the end of the loan term, or the accrual of original issue or market discount. Since we may recognize income before or without receiving cash representing such income, we may have difficulty meeting the requirement to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income to obtain tax benefits as a RIC and may be subject to an excise tax.

In order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement applicable to RICs, we have the ability to pay a large portion of a dividend in shares of our common stock instead of in cash. As long as a sufficient portion of such dividend is paid in cash (which portion can generally be as low as 20%) and certain requirements are met, the entire distribution would be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Related Parties

We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:

•

The Company has entered into an Investment Management Agreement with the Advisor.

•

The Company has entered into the Administration Agreement with the Administrator.

•

The Company has entered into a royalty-free license agreement with BlackRock and the Advisor, pursuant to which each of BlackRock and the Advisor has agreed to grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use the name “BlackRock”.

The Advisor and its affiliates, employees and associates currently do, and in the future may, manage other funds and accounts. The Advisor and its affiliates may determine that an investment is appropriate for us and for one or more of those other funds or accounts. Accordingly, conflicts may arise regarding the allocation of investments or opportunities among us and those accounts. In general, the Advisor will allocate investment opportunities pro rata among us and the other funds and accounts (assuming the investment satisfies the objectives of each) based on the amount of committed capital each then has available. The allocation of certain investment opportunities in private placements is subject to independent director approval pursuant to the terms of the co-investment exemptive order applicable to us. In certain cases, investment opportunities may be made other than on a pro rata basis. For example, we may desire to retain an asset at the same time that one or more other funds or accounts desire to sell it or we may not have additional capital to invest at a time the other funds or accounts do. If the Advisor is unable to manage our investments effectively, we may be unable to achieve our investment objective. In addition, the Advisor may face conflicts in allocating investment opportunities between us and certain other entities that could impact our investment returns. While our ability to enter into transactions with our affiliates is restricted under the 1940 Act, we have received an exemptive order from the SEC permitting certain affiliated investments subject to certain conditions. As a result, we may face conflict of interests and investments made pursuant to the exemptive order conditions which could in certain circumstances affect adversely the price paid or received by us or the availability or size of the position purchased or sold by us.

Recent Developments

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2026, 100.0% of debt investments in our portfolio bore interest based on floating rates, such as SOFR, EURIBOR, the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate. The interest rates on such investments generally reset by reference to the current market index after one to six months. At June 30, 2026, the percentage of floating rate debt investments in our portfolio that were subject to an interest rate floor was 97.3%. Floating rate investments subject to a floor generally reset by reference to the current market index after one to six months only if the index exceeds the floor.

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in 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. We assess our portfolio companies periodically to determine whether such companies will be able to continue making interest payments in the event that interest rates increase. There can be no assurances that the portfolio companies will be able to meet their contractual obligations at any or all levels of increases in interest rates.

Based on our Statement of Assets and Liabilities as of June 30, 2026, the following table shows the annual impact on net investment income (excluding the related incentive fee impact) of base rate changes in interest rates (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments and the fact that our assets and liabilities may not have the same base rate period as assumed in this table) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:


Basis Point Change	Net Investment Income			Net Investment Income Per Share
Up 300 basis points	$	6,437,156		$	0.22
Up 200 basis points		4,291,437			0.15
Up 100 basis points		2,145,719			0.07
Down 100 basis points		(2,144,675	)		(0.07	)

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on our evaluation, our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in timely alerting management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of material information about us required to be included in our periodic SEC filings. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, are based upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
