The following table presents information concerning portfolio companies to which the Company has made loans. Portfolio Company Metrics(1): Median $96 12-month EBITDA: million(2)(7) Weighted average net leverage: 4.8x(2)(3) Weighted average loan to 41%(2)(4) value: Weighted average interest 2.4x(2)(5) coverage: Weighted average yield on 9.5%(6) debt investments, at cost: (1) Amounts were derived from the most recently available financial statements provided by portfolio companies which have not been independently verified by us and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount. Such amounts have not been independently estimated by us, and accordingly, we take no responsibility for such numbers and make no representation or warranty in respect of this information. (2) Metrics exclude one liquid loan. Metrics also exclude one recurring revenue investment, which are investments in portfolio companies in which the Company lends based on a multiple of recurring revenue generated by the portfolio company and not based on a multiple of EBITDA. Weighted average metrics are calculated as a percentage of funded par value of debt investments. (3) Net leverage is the ratio of total senior debt minus cash divided by EBITDA and taking into account leverage through the tranche to which the Company is a lender. (4) Calculated using total senior debt minus cash divided by total enterprise value estimated by the private equity sponsor or market comparables and taking into account leverage through the tranche to which the Company is a lender. (5) Interest coverage for a particular portfolio company is calculated by taking EBITDA and dividing by annualized latest reported interest expense. (6) Computed as (a) the annual stated spread, plus reference rate, as applicable, plus the annual accretion of discounts, plus the annual unused fees, as applicable on debt securities divided by (b) total debt investments at cost included in such securities. Actual yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented herein. (7) For the portfolio companies included in the calculation above, median 12-month EBITDA at the time of the Company’s initial investment was $82 million.

As of September 30, 2026, the direct lending platform had approximately $3.8 billion of Total Committed Capital (2). 1) The components of “Total Private Credit Platform Size” are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Undrawn investor commitments and expected allocations are subject to the terms of the relevant agreements and/or applicable law, including limitations on the Company’s or other relevant fund’s ability to call capital, and may not be immediately available for investment. Expected allocations from Lord Abbett-managed funds are not legally binding commitments to invest and are subject to the discretion of the portfolio manager(s) of the relevant funds. In addition, leverage amounts under credit facilities or other debt agreements are subject to borrowing base requirements, asset coverage tests, covenants and/or other terms and conditions. Expected target leverage may include financing that has not yet been committed or obtained and represents leverage expected to be utilized to achieve the applicable investment vehicle’s target capital structure. There is no guarantee that the platform would be able to obtain financing to achieve the expected target leverage. In addition, the platform’s expected target leverage may change over time. Accordingly, the amount of capital the direct lending platform is able to invest at any given time may be materially less than the amounts presented. The foregoing amounts represent estimates as of the date indicated and are subject to change based on, among other things, portfolio activity, market conditions, investor actions, and funding availability. 2) Total Committed Capital is comprised of (i) investments at fair value, accrued interest and fees, and cash and cash equivalents as of the measurement date and (ii) unfunded commitments to extend loans to borrowers as of the measurement date.
