Forward guidance

BDC outlook tied to portfolio spreads and marks; no traditional EPS guidance—distribution policy and NII coverage are focal.

Tailwinds

  • NII still covers a substantial portion of distributions.
  • Large private-credit platform scale.
  • New origination activity continues.

Headwinds

  • Unrealized/realized losses reduced GAAP earnings.
  • NII down YoY on base rate normalization.
  • Credit marks can be volatile quarter to quarter.
