(28)As part of a restructuring completed on September 17, 2021, a portion of the Company’s investment in the first lien senior secured notes of Premiere Global Services, Inc. was converted into a like amount of a new revolving credit facility (the “Replacement Revolver”). On March 15, 2023, the maturity date of the Replacement Revolver was amended from March 15, 2023 to April 7, 2023. The cost basis of the Replacement Revolver was established by allocating a portion of the cost basis from the first lien senior secured notes pro-rata based on the amount of principal that was converted from the first lien senior secured notes to the Replacement Revolver. The Replacement Revolver has no unfunded commitment and is on non-accrual status as of March 31, 2024.

(29)Note bears interest at the stated rate, plus the the Wall Street Journal quoted Prime Rate.

(30)The principal balance outstanding for this debt investment, in whole or in part, is indexed to 90-day SOFR.

(31)The CLO equity investment was optionally redeemed. Expected value of residual distributions, once received, is anticipated to be recognized as return of capital, pending any remaining amortized cost, and/or realized gain for any amounts received in excess of such amortized cost.

(32)As of March 31, 2024, the effective yield has been estimated to be 0%. The aggregate projected amount of future recurring distributions and terminal principal payment is less than the amortized investment cost.

CONSOLIDATION

As provided under Regulation S-XS-X and ASC Topic 946-810,946-810, Consolidation (“ASC 946-810”), the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than a wholly-ownedwholly-owned investment company or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. TICC CLO 2012-1 would be considered an investment company butCompany for the exceptions under Sections 3(c)(1) and 3(c)(7) under the 1940 Act, andperiods during which it was established solely for the purpose of allowing the Company to borrow funds for the purpose of making investments. The Company owns all of the equity in this entity and controls the decision making power that drives its economic performance. Accordingly, the Company consolidates its wholly-owned subsidiary in its financial statements, and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in ASC 946-810.held.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits held at custodian banks, and cash held in ahighly liquid investments, such as money market fund which contain investmentsfunds, with original maturities of three months or less. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in bank accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit. Cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 assets and are included on the Company’s Consolidated Scheduleschedule of Investments. Cashinvestments. Certain cash equivalents are carried at cost or amortized cost, which approximates fair value.value, and investments held in money market funds are valued at net asset value (“NAV”) per share.

As of December 31, 2016, restricted cash represents the cash held by the trustee of the 2012 Securitization Issuer. The amounts are held by the trustee for payment of interest expense and operating expenses of the entity, principal repayments on borrowings, or new investments, based upon the terms of the respective indenture, and are not available for general corporate purposes. There was no restricted cash as of September 30, 2017 as TICC CLO 2012-1 effectively ceased operations on August 25, 2017.

INVESTMENT VALUATION

The Company fair valuesdetermines its investment portfolio at fair value in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820,Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”) and DisclosureRule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-5”). Estimates made in the preparation of TICC’s consolidatedthe Company’s financial statements include the valuation of investments and the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. TICCThe Company believes that there is no single definitive method for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments TICCthe Company makes.

The Company values its investments for which market quotations are not readily available at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board on at least a quarterly basis. ASC 820-10820-10 clarified the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition.

ASC 820-10820-10 defines fair value as 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. ASC 820-10820-10 also establishes a three-tierthree-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted

prices in active markets; Level2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active; and Level3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. TICCThe Company considers the attributes of current market conditions on an on-goingon-going basis and has determined that due to the general illiquidity of the market for its investment portfolio, whereby little or no market data exists, all of TICC’sthe Company’s investments are based upon “Level 3”Level 3 inputs as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

TICC’sThe Board of Directors determines the value of its investment portfolio each quarter. In connection with that determination, members of TICCOxford Square Management’s portfolio management team prepare a quarterly analysis of each portfolio investment using the most recent portfolio company financial statements, forecasts and other relevant financial and operational information. Since March 2004, TICCThe Company has engaged third-partyand may continue to engage third-party valuation firms to provide assistance in valuing certain of its syndicated loans and bilateral investments, including related equity investments, although TICC’sthe Board of Directors ultimately determines the appropriate valuation of each such investment.

Syndicated Loans (Including Senior Secured Notes)

In accordance with ASC 820-10, TICC’s820-10, the Company’s valuation procedures specifically provide for the review of indicative quotes supplied by the large agent banks that make a market for each security. However, the marketplace from which TICCthe Company obtains indicative bid quotes for purposes of determining the fair value of its syndicated loan investments has shown attributes of illiquidity as described by ASC 820-10.820-10. During such periods of illiquidity, when TICCthe Company believes that the non-bindingnon-binding indicative bids received from agent banks for certain syndicated loan investments that we ownit owns may not be determinative of their fair value, or when no market indicative quote is available, TICCthe Company has and may continue to engage third-partythird-party valuation firms to provide assistance in valuing certain syndicated investments that TICCthe Company owns. The third-party valuation firms may use the income or market approach in arriving at a valuation. Unobservable inputs utilized could include discount rates derived from estimated credit spreads and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”) multiples. In addition, TICCOxford Square Management prepares an analysis ofanalyzes each syndicated loan including aby reviewing the portfolio company’s financial summary,statements, covenant compliance review,and recent trading activity in the security, if known, and other business developments related to the portfolio company. All available information, including non-bindingnon-binding indicative bids which may not be determinative of fair value, is presented to the Company’s Valuation Committee (the “Valuation Committee”) to consider in its determination of fair value. In some instances, there may be limited trading activity in a security even though the market for the security is considered not active. In such cases, the Valuation Committee will consider the number of trades, the size and timing of each trade, and other circumstances around such trades, to the extent such information is available, in its determination of fair value. The Valuation Committee will evaluate the impact of such additional information, and factor it into its consideration of the fair value that is indicated by the analysis provided by third-partythird-party valuation firms, if any. All information is presented to the Board for its determination of fair value of these investments.

Collateralized Loan Obligations — Debt and Equity

TICCThe Company has acquired a number of debt and equity positions in collateralized loan obligation (“CLO”)CLO investment vehicles and can purchase CLO warehouse investments.facilities. These investments are special purpose financing vehicles. In valuing such investments, TICCthe Company considers the indicative prices provided by a recognized industry pricing service as a primary source, and the implied yield of such prices, supplemented by actual trades executed in the market at or around period-end,period-end, as well as the indicative prices provided by the broker who arranges transactions in such investment vehicles. TICCThe Company also considers those instances in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on or before the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require a downward adjustment to the indicative price representing substantially all of the pending distribution. Additional factors include any available information on other relevant transactions including firm bids and offers in the market and information resulting from bids-wanted-in-competition.bids-wanted-in-competition. In addition, TICCthe Company considers the operating metrics of the specific investment vehicle, including compliance with collateralization tests, defaulted and restructured securities, and payment defaults, if any. TICCIn periods of illiquidity and volatility, the Company may rely more heavily on other qualities and metrics, including but not limited to, the collateral manager, time left in the reinvestment period, expected cash flows and overcollateralization ratios, instead of the Company’s generated valuation yields. Oxford Square Management or the Valuation Committee may request an additional analysis by a third-partythird-party firm to assist in the valuation process of CLO investment vehicles. All information is presented to TICC’sthe Board of Directors for its determination of fair value of these investments.

In addition, in those instances where a third-partythird-party valuation is prepared for a portfolio investment which meets the parameters noted in (i) and (ii) above, the frequency of those third-partythird-party valuations is based upon the grade assigned to each such security under its credit grading system as follows: Grade1, at least annually; Grade2, at least semi-annually;semi-annually; Grades3,4, and5, at least quarterly. Bilateral investments which do not meet the parameters in (i) and (ii) above are not required to have a third-partythird-party valuation and, in those instances, a valuation analysis will be prepared by TICCOxford Square Management.

INVESTMENT INCOME

Interest Income

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis using the contractual rate applicable to each debt investment and includes the accretion of market discounts and/or original issue discount (“OID”) and amortization of market premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.

Generally, when interest and/or principal payments on a loan become past due, or if the Company otherwise does not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, the Company will place the loan on non-accrualnon-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company generally restores non-accrualnon-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in the Company’s judgment, is likely to remain current. As of September 30, 2017 and asMarch 31, 2024, the Company had six debt investments in three portfolio companies that were on non-accrual status. As of December 31, 2016,2023, the Company had nofour debt investments in two portfolio companies that were on non-accrualnon-accrual status.

Interest income also includes a payment-in-kindpayment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisioncomponent on certain investments in TICC’sthe Company’s portfolio. Refer to the section below, “Payment-In-Kind,“Payment-In-Kind,” for a description of the PIK provisionincome and its impact on interest income.

Payment-In-Kind

TICCThe Company has debt and preferred stock investments in its portfolio whichthat contain a contractual PIK provision. Certain PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or additional securities.provisions. PIK interest and preferred stock dividends are computed at thetheir contractual rate isrates and are accrued into income and recorded as interest and dividend income, respectively. The PIK amounts are added to the principal balancebalances on the capitalization date.dates. Upon capitalization, the PIK portions of the investments are valued at their respective fair values. If the Company believes that a PIK is not fully expected to be realized, the PIK investment would be placed on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends would be reversed from the related receivable through interest or dividend income, respectively.

NOTE 3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Income from Securitization Vehicles and Investments

Income from investments in the equity class securities of CLO vehicles (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 325-40,325-40, Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based upon an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, amounts and timing, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. The Company monitorsWe monitor the expected residual payments, and effective yield is determined and updated periodically, as needed. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP Consolidated Statementstatements of Operationsoperations differs from both the tax-basistax-basis investment income and from the cash distributions actually received by the Company during the period.

Commitment, Amendment Fee IncomeThe Company also records income on its investments in CLO warehouse facilities based on a stated rate per the underlying note purchase agreement plus accrued interest or, if there is no stated rate, then an estimated rate is calculated using a base case model projecting the timing of the ramp-up of the CLO warehouse facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, no income was recognized related to CLO warehouse facilities. As of March 31, 2024 and December31, 2023, the Company did not hold any investments in CLO warehouse facilities.

Other Income

Commitment, amendment fee income and otherOther income includes prepayment, amendment, and other fees earned by the Company’s loan investments, distributions from fee letters and success fees associated with portfolio investments. Distributions from fee letters are an enhancement to the return on a CLO equity investment and are based upon a percentage of the collateral manager’s fees above the amortized cost, and are recorded as other income when earned. The Company may also earn success fees associated with its investments in certain securitization vehicles or “CLOCLO warehouse facilities, which are contingent upon a repayment of the warehouse by a permanent CLO securitization structure; such fees are earned and recognized when the repayment is completed.

Preferred Stock Dividends

The Company holds preferred stock investments in its portfolio that contain cumulative preferred dividends that accumulate quarterly. The Company will generally record cumulative preferred dividends as investment income when they are received or declared by the portfolio company’s board of directors or upon any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the portfolio company, and are collectible. There were no cumulative preferred dividends recorded as dividend income during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, as the Company deemed them to be uncollectible.

DEFERRED DEBT ISSUANCE COSTS

Deferred debt issuance costs consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the closing or amending of credit facilities and debt offerings, and are capitalized at the time of payment. These costs are amortized using the straight line method over the terms of the respective credit facilities and debt securities. This amortization expense isThe amortized expenses are included in Interestinterest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. Upon early termination offinancial statements. The unamortized deferred debt or a credit facility, the remaining balance of unamortized fees related to such debt is accelerated into Realized Losses on Extinguishment of Debtissuance costs are included on the Company’s Consolidated Statementstatements of Operations. Deferred offering costs are presented on the balance sheetassets and liabilities as a direct deduction from the related debt liability. Upon early termination or partial principal pay down of debt, or a credit facility, the unamortized costs related to such debt are accelerated into realized losses on extinguishment of debt on the Company’s statements of operations.

EQUITY OFFERING COSTS

Equity offering costs consist of fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration and public offer and sale of the Company’s common stock, including legal, accounting and printing fees. These costs are deferred at the time of incurrence and are subsequently charged as a reduction to capital when the offering takes place or as shares are issued. Deferred costs are periodically reviewed and expensed if the related registration is no longer active.

SHARE REPURCHASES

From time to time, the Company’s Board of Directors may authorize a share repurchase program under which shares are purchased in open market transactions. Since the Company is incorporated in the State of Maryland, state lawMGCL requires share repurchases to be accounted for as a share retirement. The cost of repurchased shares is charged against capital on the settlement date.

OTHER ASSETSSECURITIES TRANSACTIONS

OtherSecurities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on investments sold are recorded on the basis of specific identification. An optional redemption (“optionally redeemed”) feature of a CLO allows a majority of the holders of the equity securities issued by the CLO issuer, after the end of a specified non-call period, to cause the redemption of the secured notes issued by the CLO with proceeds paid either through the liquidation of the CLO’s assets consistor through a refinancing with new debt. The optional redemption is effectively a voluntary prepayment of funds held in escrow from sales of investments, prepaid expenses associated primarily with insurance costs, other receivables and deferred equity offering costs. At September 30, 2017, funds held in escrow totaled approximately $739,000, relatedthe secured debt issued by the CLO prior to the salestated maturity of such debt. Distributions received on CLO equity investments where the Company’s investment in Ai Squared during the quarter ended June 30, 2016. The fundsoptional redemption feature has been exercised are expected to be released from escrowfirst applied to the company during the fourth quarter of 2017, net of settlementremaining cost basis until it is reduced to zero, after which distributions are recorded as realized gains.

U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

The Company intends to operate so as to qualify to be taxed as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and, as such, to not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the portion of its taxable income and gains timely distributed to stockholders. To qualify for RIC tax treatment, TICCthe Company is required to distribute at least 90% of its investment company taxable income annually, meet diversification requirements quarterly and file Form 1120-RIC,1120-RIC, as defined by the Code.

Because U.S. federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future. Differences in classification may also result from the treatment of short-termshort-term gains as ordinary income for tax purposes.

The Company recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is more likely than not to be sustained, assuming examination by tax authorities. Through September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions expected to be taken in the Company’s 20172023 or 2024 tax returns. The Company identifies its major tax jurisdictions as U.SU.S. Federal and Connecticut State; however,the state of Connecticut. The Company did not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition measurement criteria of ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes, nor did the Company is not aware

(1)Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.

(2)The impact on the fair value measurement of an increase in each unobservable input is in isolation. The discount rate is the rate used to discount future cash flows in a discounted cash flow calculation. An increase in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement. Market multiples refer to the input (often derived from the value of a comparable company) that is multiplied by the historic and/or expected EBITDA of a company in order to estimate the company’s value. An increase in the Market Multiples/EBITDA, in isolation, would result in an increase in the fair value measurement.

(3)The Company generally uses prices provided by an independent pricing service, or broker or agent bank non-bindingnon-binding indicative bid prices (“NBIB”), on or near the valuation date as the primary basis for the fair value determinations for syndicated notes, and CLO debt and equity investments, which may be adjusted for pending equity distributions as of valuation date. These bid prices are non-binding,non-binding, and may not be determinative of fair value. Each bid price is evaluated by the Valuation Committee in conjunction with additional information compiled by TICCOxford Square Management, including financial performance, recent business developments, and, in the case of CLO debt and equity investments, performance and covenant compliance information as provided by the independent trustee.

(2)  EBITDA, or earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, is an unobservable input which is generally based on most recently available twelve month financial statements provided by the portfolio company. Market multiples, also an unobservable input, represent an estimation of where market participants might value an enterprise based upon information available for comparable companies in the market.

(3)  Discount rate represents the rate at which future cash flows are discounted to calculate a present value, reflecting market assumptions for risk.

(4)  The calculation of weighted average for a range of values, for multiple investments within a given asset category, is not considered to provide a meaningful representation (“ncm”).

(5)  The Company will calculate the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. TICC will also consider those investments in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require an adjustment to the transaction price representing substantially all of the pending distribution.

(6)  Prices provided by independent pricing services are evaluated in conjunction with actual trades and payoffs and, in certain cases, the value represented by actual trades or payoffs may be more representative of fair value as determined by the Valuation Committee.

(5)The calculation of weighted average for a range of values, for a single investment within a given asset category, is not considered to provide a meaningful representation (“ncm”).

(6)The Company calculates the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. The Company also considers those investments in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on or before the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require an adjustment to the transaction price representing substantially all of the pending distribution.

(8)Enterprise value is defined as the total value of a company, including debt and cash. For the corporate debt investmentssenior secured notes and equity investments, third-partythird-party valuation firms evaluate the financial and operational information of the portfolio companies that the Company provides to them, as well as independent market and industry information that they consider appropriate in forming an opinion as to the fair value of the Company’s securities. In those instances where the carrying value and/or internal credit rating of the investment does not require the use of a third-partythird-party valuation firm, a valuation is prepared by TICCOxford Square Management, which may include liquidation analysis or which may utilize a subsequent transaction to provide an indication of fair value.

(8)  (9)EBITDA, or earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, is an unobservable input which is generally based on the most recently available twelve month financial statements provided by the portfolio company. Market multiples, also an unobservable input, represent an estimation of where market participants might value an enterprise based upon information available for comparable companies in the market. “LTM” refers to “last twelve months.”

(10)The fair value of those CLO equity positions which have been optionally redeemed are generally valued using a liquidation net asset value basis which represents the estimated expected residual value of the CLO as of the end of the period.

(10) (2)The impact on the fair value measurement of an increase in each unobservable input is in isolation. The discount rate is the rate used to discount future cash flows in a discounted cash flow calculation. An increase in the discount rate, in isolation, would result in a decrease in athe fair value measurement. Market/EBITDAMarket multiples refer to the input (often derived from the value of a comparable company) that is multiplied by the historic and/or expected EBITDA of a company in order to estimate the company’s value. An increase in the Market/Market Multiples/EBITDA, multiple, in isolation, net of adjustments, would result in an increase in athe fair value measurement.

____________ Yield analysis refers to determining a yield through projected, discounted future cash flows. Once the yield is calculated, that yield corresponds to a specific fair value. An increase to the yield, in isolation, would result in a decrease in the fair value measurement.

(1)  (3)The Company generally uses prices provided by an independent pricing service, or broker or agent bank non-bindingnon-binding indicative bid prices (“NBIB”), on or near the valuation date as the primary basis for the fair value determinations for syndicated notes, and CLO debt and equity investments, which may be adjusted for pending equity distributions as of valuation date. These bid prices are non-binding,non-binding, and may not be determinative of fair value. Each bid price is evaluated by the Valuation Committee in conjunction with additional information compiled by TICCOxford Square Management, including financial performance, recent business developments, and, in the case of CLO debt and equity investments, performance and covenant compliance information as provided by the independent trustee.

NOTE 4. FAIR VALUE (continued)

(2)  EBITDA is an unobservable input which is generally based on most recently available twelve month financial statements provided by the portfolio company. Market multiples, also an unobservable input, represent an estimation of where market participants might value an enterprise based upon information available for comparable companies in the market.

(3)  Discount rate represents the rate at which future cash flows are discounted to calculate a present value, reflecting market assumptions for risk. (cont.)

(4)  The calculation of weighted average for a range of values, for multiple investments within a given asset category, is not considered to provide a meaningful representation (“ncm”).

(5)  The Company will calculate the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. TICC will also consider those investments in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require an adjustment to the transaction price representing substantially all of the pending distribution.

(6)  Prices provided by independent pricing services are evaluated in conjunction with actual trades and payoffs and, in certain cases, the value represented by actual trades or payoffs may be more representative of fair value as determined by the Valuation Committee.

(5)The calculation of weighted average for a range of values, for a single investment within a given asset category, is not considered to provide a meaningful representation (“ncm”).

(6)The Company calculates the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. The Company also considers those investments in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on or before the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require an adjustment to the transaction price representing substantially all of the pending distribution.

(7)Discount rate represents the rate at which future cash flows are discounted to calculate a present value, reflecting market assumptions for risk.

(8)Enterprise value is defined as the total value of a company, including debt and cash. For the corporate debt investmentssenior secured notes and equity investments, third-partythird-party valuation firms evaluate the financial and operational information of the portfolio companies that the Company provides to them, as well as independent market and industry information that they consider appropriate in forming an opinion as to the fair value of the Company’s securities. In those instances where the carrying value and/or internal credit rating of the investment does not require the use of a third-partythird-party valuation firm, a valuation is prepared by TICCOxford Square Management, which may include liquidation analysis or which may utilize a subsequent transaction to provide an indication of fair value.

(8)  Weighted averages are calculated(9)EBITDA, or earnings before interest expense, taxes, depreciation and amortization, is an unobservable input which is generally based on the most recently available twelve month financial statements provided by the portfolio company. Market multiples, also an unobservable input, represent an estimation of where market participants might value an enterprise based upon information available for comparable companies in the market. “LTM” refers to “last twelve months.”

an aggregate of $40 million, which 2012 subordinated notes were purchased by TICC under the “accordion” feature of the debt securitization which allowed, under certain circumstances and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, for an increase in the amount of secured and subordinated notes. It is not necessary that the Company own all or any of the notes permitted by this feature, which may affect the accounting treatment of the debt securitization financing transaction.

In connection with the August 25, 2016 repayment of approximately $36.0 million of the Class A-1 notes, the Company incurred debt extinguishment costs of approximately $648,000, which consisted of approximately $287,000 in accelerated note discount expense and approximately $361,000 in accelerated deferred debt issuance costs.

Incentive Fee

The incentive fee has two parts:fees are commonly referred to as the “Net Investment Income“Income Incentive Fee” and the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee”. The Fee,” with the first fee payable quarterly in arrears and the second fee payable in arrears at the end of each calendar year.

Net Investment Income Incentive Fee

The first fee (the “Net Investment Income Incentive Fee”), is determined by reference to the Company’s “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” (as defined below). Given that this incentive fee is calculated and payable quarterlywithout regard to any gain, loss or unrealized depreciation that may occur during the quarter, Oxford Square Management’s incentive fee may be payable notwithstanding a decline in arrearsnet asset value that quarter.

Under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Net Investment Income Incentive Fee is calculated based on the amount by which (x) the “Pre-IncentiveCompany’s “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds (y) the “Preferred Return Amount” for the current calendar quarter.

For this purpose, “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any accrued income that we have not yet received in cash and any other fees, such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receivethe Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter minus TICC’sthe Company’s operating expenses accrued duringfor the calendar quarter (including the Base Fee, expenses payable under a separatethe administration agreement, with BDC Partners (the “Administration Agreement”), and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). “Pre-IncentivePre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income”Income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature (such as OID,original issue discount, debt instruments with PIK interest, and zero coupon securities), accrued income that the Company haswe have not yet received in cash. TICC Management is not under any obligation to reimburse TICC for any part of the incentive fee it received that was based on accrued income that it never received as a result of a default by an entity on the obligation that resulted in the accrual of such income. “Pre-IncentivePre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income”Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciationdepreciation.

Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, expressed as a rate of return on investments, or gain/lossthe value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to one-fourth of an annual “hurdle rate.” The annual hurdle rate is determined as of the immediately preceding December 31st by adding 5.0% to the interest rate then payable on extinguishmentthe most recently issued five-year U.S. Treasury Notes, up to a maximum annual hurdle rate of debt. Given that this portion10.0%. The annual hurdle rates for the 2024 and 2023 calendar years, calculated as of the immediately preceding December 31st, were 8.84%

and 8.99% respectively, under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Company’s net investment income (to the extent not distributed to stockholders) used to calculate the Net Investment Income Incentive Fee was also included in the amount of gross assets used to calculate the 2% Base Fee.

a.The operation of the incentive fee with respect to the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for each quarter is as follows:

i.no incentive fee is payable without regard to Oxford Square Management in any gain, loss or unrealized depreciation on investments or gain/loss on extinguishmentcalendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not exceed one fourth of debtthe annual hurdle rate (8.84% for the 2024 calendar year).

ii.20% of the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that may occurexceeds one-fourth of the annual hurdle rate (8.84% for the 2024 calendar year) in any calendar quarter is payable to Oxford Square Management (i.e., once the hurdle rate is reached, 20% of all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income thereafter will be allocated to Oxford Square Management).

Under the terms of the 2016 Fee Waiver, for the purpose of calculating the amount of total advisory fees (if any) to be waived during a particular calendar quarter, the quarter, thisIncome Incentive Fee (as a portion of TICC Management’s incentive fee may also be payable notwithstanding a decline in net asset value thatthe total calculation) is calculated based on the amount by which (x) the “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” (as defined below) for the calendar quarter exceeds (y) the “Preferred Return Amount” (as defined below) for the calendar quarter.

Effective April 1, 2016, aa.A “Preferred Return Amount” is calculated on a quarterly basis by multiplying 1.75% by the Company’s net asset value at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter.

b.The Net Investment Income Incentive feeFee is then calculated as follows:

(a)no Net Investment Income Incentive Fee is payable to TICCOxford Square Management in any calendar quarter in which the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” does not exceed the “Preferred Return Amount”;

(b)100% of the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for such quarter, if any, that exceeds the “Preferred Return Amount” but is less than or equal to a “Catch-Up“Catch-Up Amount” determined on a quarterly basis by multiplying 2.1875% by TICC’sOXSQ’s net asset value at the end of such calendar quarter; and

(c)for any quarter in which the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” exceeds the “Catch-Up“Catch-Up Amount,” the Net Investment Income Incentive feeFee will be 20% of the amount of the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for such quarter.

c.There is no accumulation of amounts from quarter to quarter for the “Preferred Return Amount,” and accordingly there is no claw back of amounts previously paid to TICCOxford Square Management if the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for subsequent quarters is below the quarterly “Preferred Return Amount,” and there is no delay of payment of incentive fees to TICCOxford Square Management if the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for prior quarters is below the quarterly “Preferred Return Amount” for the quarter for which the calculation is being made.

In addition, effective April 1, 2016, thed.The calculation of the Company’s Net Investment Income Incentive Fee is subject to a total return requirement whichthat provides that a Net Investment Income Incentive Fee will not be payable to TICCOxford Square Management except to the extent 20% of the “cumulative net increase in net assets resulting from operations” (which is the amount, if positive, of the sum of the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income,” realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments)depreciation) during the calendar

quarter for which such fees are being calculated and the eleven (11) preceding quarters (or if shorter, the number of quarters since April 1, 2016) exceeds the cumulative Net Investment Income Incentive Fees accrued and/or paid for such eleven (11) preceding quarters (or if shorter,quarters.

In the number of quarters since April 1, 2016). Underevent that the revisedadvisory fee structure,calculations under no circumstances will the aggregate fees earned from April 1, 2016 by TICC Management inFee Waiver produce a higher combined Base Fee and Net Investment Income Incentive Fee for any quarterly period, be higher than the aggregatecombined fees that would have been earned priorare set to the adoption of these changes.

In the event that advisory fee calculations under the 2016 the “Pre-Incentive Fee Wavier produce a lower combined Base Fee and Net Investment Income” which was expressed Incentive Fee for that quarterly period, those lower combined fees are adopted for that quarterly period. In either case, the lower level of combined fees is used for that quarter, and, accordingly, the advisory fee payable to Oxford Square Management can only be reduced, and never increased, as a rate of return on the value of our net assets at the endresult of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, was compared to one-fourth of an annual hurdle rate that was determined as of the immediately preceding December 31st by adding 5.00% to

Capital Gains Incentive Fee

The Capital Gains Incentive Fee, which is calculated identically under the Investment Advisory Agreement and under the 2016 Fee Waiver, is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 20% of the Company’s “Incentive Fee Capital Gains,” which consists of its realized capital gains for each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on investments for that calendar year. For accounting purposes only, in order to reflect the theoretical capital gains incentive feeCapital Gains Incentive Fee that would be payable for a given period as if all unrealized gains on investments were realized, the Company will accrue a Capital Gains Incentive Fee based upon net realized gains on investments (excluding gains/losses on extinguishment of debt) and unrealized depreciation on investments for that calendar year (in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement), plus unrealized appreciation on investments held at the end of the period. It should be noted that a fee so calculated and accrued would not necessarily be payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement, and may never be paid based upon the computation of Capital Gains Incentive Fees in subsequent periods. Amounts paid under the Investment Advisory Agreement will be consistent with the formula reflected in the Investment Advisory Agreement.

The amount of Capital Gains Incentive Fee expense related to the hypothetical liquidation of the portfolio (and assuming no other changes in realized or unrealized gains and losses) would only become payable to TICCOxford Square Management in the event of a complete liquidation of the Company’s portfolio as of period end and the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement on such date. Also, it should be noted that the Capital Gains Incentive Fee expense fluctuates with the Company’s overall investment results.

There were no Capital Gains Incentive Fees incurred duringbased on hypothetical liquidation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and 2016.2023. There were no accrued Capital Gains Incentive Fees payable to TICCOxford Square Management as of September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2016.2023.

NOTE 9. DISTRIBUTIONS

The Company intends to continue to operate so as to qualify to be taxed as a RIC under the Code and, as such, the Company would not be subject to federal income tax on the portion of its taxable income and gains distributed to stockholders. To qualify to be taxed as a RIC, the Company is required, among other requirements, to distribute at least 90% of its annual investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code. The amount to be paid out each quarter as a distribution each quarter is determined by the Board of Directors and is based upon the annual taxable income estimated by the management of the Company. Income calculated in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations differs substantially from GAAP income. To the extent that the Company’s cumulative undistributed taxable earnings fall below the amount of distributions declared, however, a portion of the total amount of the Company’s distributions for the fiscal year may be deemed a return of capital for tax purposes to the Company’s stockholders.

The Company intends to comply with the applicable provisions of the Code pertaining to RICs to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it of substantially all federal income taxes. The Company, at its discretion, may carry forward taxable income in excess of calendar year distributions and pay a 4% excise tax on such income. The Company will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income, if any, as required.

NOTE 9. DISTRIBUTIONS (continued) The Company has accrued approximately $1.1million of estimated excise tax payable for estimated excise tax on undistributed taxable income. This amount is included in “Accrued Expenses” on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The Company has adopted an “opt out” distribution reinvestment plan for ourits common stockholders. As a result, if we makethe Company makes a cash distribution, then stockholders’ cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of ourits common stock, unless they specifically “opt out” of the distribution reinvestment plan so as to receive cash distributions. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and 2016,2023, the Company did not issue any issued 47,743 and 41,158shares, respectively, of common stock for approximately $139,000 and

$134,000, respectively, to stockholders in connection with the distribution reinvestment plan. During the three months ended September 30, 2017On each of January 31, February 29 and September 30, 2016, as part of our dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders, our dividend reinvestment administrator purchased 45,183 shares and 73,401 shares, respectively, of our common stock for $0.3 million and $0.4 million, respectively, in the open market to satisfy the reinvestment portion of our dividends. On SeptemberMarch 29, 2017,2024, the Company paid a distributionmonthly distributions of $0.20approximately $2.1 million, or $0.035 per share.

On December 22, 2010,Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) was enacted which changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of RICs. The changes are generally effective for taxable years beginning after the date of enactment. Under the Act,, the Company will beis permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the date of enactment for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactmentpre-enactment taxable years, which carry an expiration date. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactmentpre-enactment capital loss carryforwards may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactmentpost-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-termshort-term or long-termlong-term losses rather than being considered all short-termshort-term as under previous law.

The tax character of distributions for the three months ended March 31, 2024, represented, on an estimated basis, $0.105 per share from ordinary income. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates (based on an average of the reported tax character historically) and are not being provided for U.S. federal income tax reporting purposes. The timing and character of distributions for U.S. federal income tax purposes (which are determined in accordance with the U.S. federal tax rules which may differ from GAAP) may be materially different than the historical information the Company used in providing the estimates herein. The final determination of the source of all distributions in 2024 will be made after year-end and the amounts represented may be materially different from the amounts disclosed in the final Form 1099-DIV notice. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Company’s investment performance and may be subject to change based on tax regulations.

NOTE 10. NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE

The Company’s net asset value per share at September 30, 2017 was $7.43,as of March 31, 2024, and at December 31, 20162023, was $7.50.$2.42 and $2.55, respectively. In determining the Company’s net asset value per share, the Board of Directors determined in good faith the fair value of the Company’s portfolio investments for which reliable market quotations are not readily available.

NOTE 11. SHARE ISSUANCE AND REPURCHASE PROGRAMS

On August 22, 2023, the Company entered into Amendment No. 1 to that certain Equity Distribution Agreement dated August 1, 2019 with Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. through which the Company may offer for sale, from time to time, up to $150.0 million of the Company’s common stock through an At-the-Market (“ATM”) offering. The Company sold a total of 324,122shares of common stock pursuant to the ATM offering during the three months ended March 31, 2024. The total amount of capital raised net of underwriting fees and offering costs was approximately $923,000 during the three months ended March 31, 2024.

From time to time, the Board may authorize a share repurchase program under which shares are purchased in open market transactions. Since the Company is incorporated in Maryland, MGCL requires share repurchases to be accounted for as a share retirement. The cost of repurchased shares is charged against capital on the settlement date. During the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company was not authorized to repurchase any shares of outstanding common stock.

NOTE 12. SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

On November 5, 2015, the Board of Directors authorized a program for the purpose of repurchasing up to $75 million worth of the Company’s common stock. Under that repurchase program, the Company was authorized, but was not obligated, to repurchase outstanding common stock in the open market from time to time through September 30, 2016, provided that repurchases comply with the prohibitions under the Company’s Insider Trading Policies and Procedures and the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including certain price, market volume and timing constraints. Further, any repurchases were to be conducted in accordance with the 1940 Act. Additionally, the Company entered into a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan to undertake accretive share repurchasing on a non-discretionary basis of up to $50 million until March 4, 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2016, under that repurchase program, the Company repurchased 4,917,026 shares of outstanding common stock for approximately $25.6 million at the average weighted price of $5.20 per share, inclusive of commission, while complying with the prohibitions under TICC’s Insider Trading Policies and Procedures and the guidelines specified in Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, including certain price, market volume and timing constraints. In addition, repurchases were conducted in accordance with the 1940 Act.

(3)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 Company’s taxable earnings fall below the total amount of the Company’s distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a tax return of capital to the Company’s stockholders. The ultimate tax character of the Company’s earnings cannot be determined until tax returns are prepared after the end of the fiscal year. The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only estimates (based on an average of the reported tax character historically) and are not being provided for U.S. tax reporting purposes.

(4)Total return based on market value equals the increase or decrease of ending market value over beginning market value, plus distributions, divided by the beginning market value, assuming distribution reinvestment prices obtained under the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan, excluding any discounts. Total return is not annualized.

NOTE 15. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15,Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments (a Consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-15”), which is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU 2016-15 and does not anticipate a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. ASU 2016-15 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2016-15.

In October 2016, the SEC adopted significant reforms under the 1940 Act that impose extensive new disclosure and reporting obligations on most 1940 Act funds (collectively, the “Reporting Rules”). The Reporting Rules expand the volume of information regarding fund portfolio holdings and investment practices that must be disclosed. The adopted amendments to Regulation S-X for 1940 Act funds and BDCs include an update to the disclosures for investments in and advances to affiliates, and the requirement to include in their financial statements a standardized schedule containing detailed information about derivative investments (among other changes). The amendments to Regulation S-X were effective August 1, 2017. The Company has adopted these amendments as of September 30, 2017 and the adoption has not had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a Consensus of the Emerging Issues Task Force) (“ASU 2016-18”), which requires that the statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company is assessing the impact of ASU 2016-18 and

NOTE 15. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS (continued)

upon adoption of the standard, restricted cash will be included as part of beginning and ending cash and cash equivalents on the consolidated statement of cash flows.

In December 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-19, Technical Corrections and Improvements. As part of this guidance, ASU 2016-19 amends FASB ASC 820 to clarify the difference between a valuation approach and a valuation technique. The amendment also requires an entity to disclose when there has been a change in either or both a valuation approach and/or a valuation technique. ASU 2016-19 is effective on a prospective basis for financial statements issued for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2016 on a prospective basis. The Company has adopted ASU 2016-19 on its consolidated financial statements and disclosures and the adoption of ASU 2016-19 has not had a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), which supersedes the revenue recognition requirements inRevenue Recognition (Topic 605). Under the new guidance, an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In May 2016, ASU 2016-12 amended ASU 2014-09 and deferred the effective period to December 15, 2017. Management has concluded that its revenues associated with financial instruments are scoped out of ASC 606. The adoption of the requirements is not expected to have a significant impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Government spending, government policies, increases in an overnight money market accountcertain interest rates by the U.S. Federal Reserve in 2023, and at times, cashdisruptions in supply chains in the United States and cash equivalents may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

NOTE 17. RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The United States capital markets have in the past experienced periods of extreme volatility and disruption. Disruptions in the capital markets tend to increase the spread between the yields realized on risk-free and higher risk securities, resulting in illiquidity in parts of the capital markets. The Company believes these conditions may reoccur in the future. A prolonged period of market illiquidity may have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. AdverseThe Company has exposure to interest rate risks to the extent prevailing interest rates change and it could negatively affect the fair value of the Company’s investments. If interest rates continue to rise in response to inflation, the value, volatility and liquidity of income paying investments could be adversely affected. Market volatility, dramatic change to interest rates and/or unfavorable economic conditions could also increase the Company’s funding costs, limit the Company’s access to the capital marketsmay lower performance or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to the Company. These events could limit the Company’s investment originations, limitimpair the Company’s ability to grow and negatively impact the Company’s operating results.

OVERVIEW

Our investment objective is to maximize our portfolio’s total return. Our primary current focus is to seek an attractive risk-adjustedrisk-adjusted total return by investing primarily in corporate debt securities and, to a lesser extent, in collateralized loan obligationobligations (“CLO”), which are structured finance investments that own corporate debt securities. CLO investments may also include warehouse facilities, which are financing structuresearly-stage CLO vehicles intended to aggregate loans that may be used to form the basis of a traditional CLO vehicle. We operate as a closed-end, non-diversifiedclosed-end management investment company and have elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). We have elected to be treated for tax purposes as a regulated investment company (“RIC”), under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), beginning with our 2003 taxable year..

Our investment activities are managed by TICCOxford Square Management, LLC (“TICCOxford Square Management”), a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. TICCOxford Square Management is owned by BDC Partners,Oxford Funds, LLC (“BDC Partners”Oxford Funds”), its managing member, and a related party, and Charles M. Royce, a member of our Board of Directors (“Board”) who holds a minority, non-controllingnon-controlling interest in TICCOxford Square Management. Jonathan H. Cohen, our Chief Executive Officer, and Saul B. Rosenthal, our President, and Chief Operating Officer, are the controlling members of BDC Partners.Oxford Funds. Under an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), we have agreed to pay TICCOxford Square Management an annual base management fee calculated on gross assets, and an incentive fee based upon our performance. Under an amended and restated administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”), we have agreed to pay or reimburse BDC Partners,Oxford Funds, as administrator, for certain expenses incurred in operating TICC.the Company. Our executive officers and directors, and the executive officers of TICCOxford Square Management and BDC Partners,Oxford Funds, serve or may serve as officers and directors of entities that operate in a line of business similar to our own. Accordingly, they may have obligations to investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which might not be in the best interests of us or our stockholders.

We generally expect to invest between $5 million and $50 million in each of our portfolio companies, although this investment size may vary proportionately as the size of our capital base changes and market conditions warrant, and accrue interest at fixed or variable rates.warrant. We expect that our investment portfolio will be diversified among a large number of investments with few investments, if any, exceeding 5.0% of the total portfolio. As of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, our debt

46

Table of Contents

investments had stated interest rates of between 4.75%9.19% and 15.00%15.33% and maturity dates of between 150 and 11282 months. In addition, our total portfolio had a weighted average annualized yield on debt investments of approximately 9.5%.13.94% as of March 31, 2024.

The weighted average yield and the weighted average annualized yield of our debt investments is not the same as a return on investment for our stockholders but, rather, relates to a portion of our investment portfolio and is calculated before the payment of all of our fees and expenses. The weighted average annualized yield was computed using the effective interest rates as of September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, including accretion of original issue discount (“OID”). and excluding any debt investments on non-accrual status. There can be no assurance that the weighted average annualized yield will remain at its current level.

We have historically borrowed funds to make investments and may continue to borrow funds to make investments. As a result, we are exposed to the risks of leverage, which may be considered a speculative investment technique. Borrowings, also known as leverage, magnify the potential for gain and loss on amounts invested and therefore increase the risks associated with investing in our securities. In addition, the costs associated with our borrowings, including any increase in the management feefees payable to TICCOxford Square Management, will be borne by our common stockholders.

In addition, as a BDC under the 1940 Act, we are required to make available significant managerial assistance, for which we may receive fees, to our portfolio companies. This assistance could involve, among other things, monitoring the operations of our portfolio companies, participating in board and management meetings, consulting with and advising officers of portfolio companies and providing other organizational and financial guidance. These fees would be generally non-recurring,non-recurring, however in some instances they may have a recurring component. We have received no fee income for managerial assistance to date.

Prior to making an investment, we may enter into a non-binding term sheet with the potential portfolio company. These term sheets are generally subject to a number of conditions, including but not limited to the satisfactory completion of our due diligence investigations of the company’s business and legal documentation for the loan.

To the extent possible, we will generally seek to invest in loans that are collateralized by a security interest in the borrower’s assets or guaranteed by a principal to the transaction. Interest payments, if not deferred, are normally payable quarterly with most debt investments having scheduled principal payments on a monthly or quarterly basis. When we receive a warrant to purchase stock in a portfolio company, the warrant will typically have a nominal strike price, and will entitle us to purchase a modest percentage of the borrower’s stock.

53During the three months ended March 31, 2024, U.S. loan market performance improved versus the prior quarter. U.S. loan prices, as defined by the Morningstar/LSTA US Leveraged Loan Index, increased from 96.23% of par as of December 31, 2023 to 96.69% of par as of March 31, 2024.

As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved the fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio of approximately $250.9 million in good faith in accordance with the Company’s valuation procedures.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIESESTIMATES

The preparation of consolidated financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements, and (iii) revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Our critical accounting estimates, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described below. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified investment valuation and investment incomeThe critical accounting estimates should be read in conjunction with our risk factors as disclosed in Item 1A. — Risk Factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. See “Note 3. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to our financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024 for more information on our critical accounting policies.

Investment Valuation

We fair value our investment portfolio in accordance with the provisions of ASC 820,Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure. (“ASC 820”) and Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Estimates made in the preparation of our consolidated financialstatements include the valuation of investments and the related amounts of unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments recorded. We believe that there is no single definitive method for determining fair value in good faith.value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make.

47

Table of Contents

ASC 820-10 clarified820-10 clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC 820-10820-10 defines fair value as 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. ASC 820-10820-10 also establishes a three-tierthree-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

Level1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

Level2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities in markets that are not active; and

Level3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

We consider the attributes of current market conditions on an ongoingon-going basis and have determined that due to the general illiquidity of the market for our investment portfolio, whereby little or no market data exists, substantially all of our fair valued investments are measured based upon “Level 3”Level 3 inputs as of September 30, 2017.March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Our Board of Directors determines the value of our investment portfolio each quarter. In connection with that determination, members of TICCOxford Square Management’s portfolio management team prepare a quarterly analysis of each portfolio investment using the most recent portfolio company financial statements, forecasts and other relevant financial and operational information. Since March 2004, we have engaged third-partyWe may also engage a third-party valuation firmsfirm to provide assistance in valuing certain of itsour syndicated loans and bilateral investments, including related equity investments, although our Board of Directors ultimately determines the appropriate valuation of each such investment. Changes in fair value, as described above, are recorded in the statementstatements of operations as net change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation).depreciation.

Syndicated LoansOur corporate loan portfolio investments are valued using several valuation processes. The quantitative inputs and data points that determine which method to utilize to value any given investment include, but are not limited to:

In accordance with ASC 820-10, our valuation procedures specifically provide forBid/offer prices;

Depth, which is defined as the reviewnumber of indicative quotes supplied by the large agent bankssecurities firms that make a market in a respective corporate syndicated loan and contribute data on the corporate syndicated loan to market data providers;

Liquidity score, which is a metric to help market participants ascertain their ability to exit a position within a given time frame and near a prevailing indicative price, which provides a benchmark of liquidity risk;

Financial performance of the underlying portfolio company;

Recent business developments;

Covenant compliance; and

Recent transactions.

In instances where secondary market data is limited, we may engage a third-party valuation firm to independently determine an estimate of fair value. Currently, we have a single company valued via a third-party valuation firm. This valuation method employs a waterfall method whereby the enterprise value (“EV”) of the company is estimated based on company financial performance inputs, such as EBITDA, and publicly traded comparable company multiples. The EV is then attributed to each debt tranche, preferred equity tranche, and common equity, in order of seniority, to arrive at a valuation for each security. However, the marketplace from which we obtain indicative bid quotes for purposes of determiningour holdings. Generally speaking, as estimated EV increases, the fair value of its syndicated loanour investments has shown attributes of illiquidity as described by ASC-820-10. During such periods of illiquidity, when we believe that the non-binding indicative bids received from agent banks for certain syndicated investments that it owns may not be determinative of their fair value or when nowill also increase. As market indicative quote is available, we may engage third-party valuation firms to provide assistance inmultiples and EBITDA increase, estimated EV will also increase.

In valuing certain syndicated investments that we own. In addition, TICC Management prepares an analysis of each syndicated loan, financial summary, covenant compliance review, recent trading activity in the security, if known, and other business developments related to the portfolio company. All available information, including non-binding indicative bids which may not be determinative of fair value, is presented to the Valuation Committee to consider in its determination of fair value. In some instances, there may be limited trading activity in a security even though the market for the security is considered not active. In such cases the Valuation Committee will consider the number of trades, the size and timing of each trade, and other circumstances around such trades, to the extent such information is available, in its determination of fair value. The Valuation Committee will evaluate the impact of such additional information, and factor it into its consideration of the fair value that is indicated by the analysis provided by third-party valuation firms, if any.

54

Collateralized Loan Obligations — Debt and Equity

We have acquired a number ofour CLO debt and equity positions in CLO investment vehicles and CLO warehouse investments. These investments are special purpose financing vehicles. In valuing such investments, we consider the indicative prices provided by a recognized industry pricing service as a primary source, and the implied yield of such prices, supplemented by actual trades executed in the market at or around period-end,period-end, as well as the indicative prices provided by the brokerbrokers who arrangesarrange transactions in such investment vehicles. We also consider those instances in which the record date for an equity distribution payment falls on the last day of the period, and the likelihood that a prospective purchaser would require

48

Table of Contents

a downward adjustment to the indicative price representing substantially all of the pending distribution. Additional factors include any available information on other relevant transactions including firm bids and offers in the market and information resulting from bids-wanted-in-competition.bids-wanted-in-competition. In addition, we consider the operating metrics of the specific investment vehicle, including compliance with collateralization tests, defaulted and restructured securities, and payment defaults, if any. TICCWe calculate the fair value of certain CLO equity investments based upon the net present value of expected contractual payment streams discounted using estimated market yields for the equity tranche of the respective CLO vehicle. Oxford Square Management or theits Valuation Committee may request an additional analysis by a third-partythird-party firm to assist in the valuation process of CLO investment vehicles. All information is presented to our Board of Directors for its determination of fair value of these investments.

Bilateral Investments (Including Equity)

Bilateral investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued by an independent pricing agent or market maker. If such market quotations are not readily available, under the valuation procedures approved by our Board of Directors, upon the recommendation of the Valuation Committee, a third-party valuation firm will prepare valuations for each of our bilateral investments that, when combined with all other investments in the same portfolio company, (i) have a value as of the previous quarter of greater than or equal to 2.5% of its total assets as of the previous quarter, and (ii) have a value as of the current quarter of greater than or equal to 2.5% of its total assets as of the previous quarter, after taking into account any repayment of principal during the current quarter. In addition, in those instances where a third-party valuation is prepared for a portfolio investment which meets the parameters noted in (i) and (ii) above, the frequency of those third-party valuations is based upon the grade assigned to each such security under its credit grading system as follows: Grade 1, at least annually; Grade 2, at least semi-annually; Grades 3, 4, and 5, at least quarterly. Bilateral investments which do not meet the parameters in (i) and (ii) above are not required to have a third-party valuation and, in those instances, a valuation analysis will be prepared by TICC Management. TICC Management also retains the authority to seek, on our behalf, additional third party valuations with respect to our bilateral portfolio securities, our syndicated loan investments, and CLO investment vehicles. Our Board of Directors retain ultimate authority as to the third-party review cycle as well as the appropriate valuation of each investment.

Refer to “Note 4. Fair Value” in our consolidated financial statements for more information on investment valuation and our portfolio of investments.

Investment Income

Interest Income

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis using the contractual rate applicable to each debt investment and includes the accretion of market discounts and/or OID and amortization of market premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on securities purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any.

Generally, when interest and/or principal payments on a loan become past due, or if we otherwise do not expect the borrower to be able to service its debt and other obligations, we will place the loan on non-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. We generally restore non-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid and, in our judgment, is likely to remain current. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had no investments on non-accrual status.

Interest income also includes a payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provision on certain investments in our portfolio. See the section below, “Payment-In-Kind,” for a description of the PIK provision and its impact on interest income.

55

Payment-In-Kind

We have investments in our portfolio which contain a contractual PIK provision. Certain PIK investments offer issuers the option at each payment date of making payments in cash or additional securities. PIK interest computed at the contractual rate is accrued into income and added to the principal balance on the capitalization date. Upon capitalization, PIK investments are subject to the fair value estimates associated with their respective related investments. A PIK investment on non-accrual status is restored to accrual status once it becomes probable that PIK will be realized. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, this income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of distributions, even though we have not collected any cash. Amounts necessary to pay these distributions may come from available cash or the liquidation of certain investments.

Income from Securitization Vehicles and Equity Investments

Income from investments in the equity class securities of CLO vehicles (typically income notes or subordinated notes) is recorded using the effective interest method in accordance with the provisions of ASC 325-40, based upon an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, including those CLO equity investments that have not made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. We monitor the expected residual payments, and effective yield is determined and updated periodically, as needed. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from both the tax-basis investment income and from the cash distributions actually received by us during the period.

Commitment, Amendment Fee Income and Other Income

Commitment, amendment fee income and other income includes prepayment, amendment, and other fees earned by our loan investments, distributions from fee letters and success fees associated with portfolio investments. Distributions from fee letters are an enhancement to the return on a CLO equity investment and are based upon a percentage of the collateral manager’s fees, and are recorded as other income when earned. We may also earn success fees associated with our investments in certain securitization vehicles or “CLO warehouse facilities,” which are contingent upon a repayment of the warehouse by a permanent CLO securitization structure; such fees are earned and recognized when the repayment is completed.

The net investment income incentive feeNet Investment Income Incentive Fee is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the amount by which (x) the “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” for the immediately preceding calendar quarter exceeds (y) the “Preferred Return Amount” for the calendar quarter (see “Note 8. Related Party Transactions” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements).quarter. For this purpose, “Pre-Incentive“Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income accrued during the calendar quarter minus our operating expenses for the quarter (including the base fee,Base Fee, expenses payable under the Administration Agreement with BDC Partners,Oxford Funds, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Refer to “Note 7. Related Party Transactions” in the notes to our financial statements.

The expense attributable to the capital gains incentive fee expense,(the “Capital Gains Incentive Fee”), as reported under GAAP, is calculated as if the Company’s entire portfolio had been liquidated at period end, and therefore is calculated on the basis of net realized and unrealized gains and losses at the end of each period. TheThat expense (or the reversal of such an expense) related to thethat hypothetical liquidation of the portfolio (and assuming no other changes in realized or unrealized gains and losses) would only become payable to TICC Managementour investment adviser in the event of a complete liquidation of our portfolio as of period end and the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement on such date. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2016,2023, no accrual was required as a result of the impact of accumulated net unrealized depreciation and net realized losses on our portfolio.

The actual amount of the capital gains incentive feeCapital Gains Incentive Fee which will actually be payable is determined in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement and is calculated as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement). The terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement state that the capital gains incentive feeCapital Gains Incentive Fee calculation is based on net realized gains, if any, offset by gross unrealized depreciation for the calendar year. No effect is given to gross unrealized appreciation in this calculation. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2016,2023, such an accrual was not required under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement.

Net Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Net Investment Income

Net investment income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023 was approximately $6.8 million and $23.1 million, respectively, as compared with the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016 of approximately $6.5 million and $17.4$6.5 million, respectively. The net increases for both the three and nine month periods were primarily the result of higher income from securitization vehicles and lower total expenses, partially offset by lower interest income on debt investments.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, the net increase in net assets resulting from net investment income per common share was $0.13$0.11 (basic and diluted) and $0.45 (basic and diluted), respectively, based on 51,479,409 weighted average common shares outstanding as of September 30, 2017, compared to the net increase in net assets resulting from net investment income per share of $0.13 (basic and diluted) and $0.33 (basic and diluted) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively, based on 51,479,409 and 51,985,537 weighted average common shares outstanding for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. Due to the anti-dilutive effect on the computation of diluted earningsMarch 31, 2023. The per share for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017 and September 30, 2016, the adjustments for interest on Convertible Notes, base management fees, deferred issuance costs and netdecrease was primarily due to a decrease in investment income, incentive fees as well as adjustments for dilutive effect of Convertible Notes were excluded from the respective period’s diluted earnings per share computation.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, the net increasepartially offset by a decrease in the net assets resulting from core net investment income per common share was $0.13 (basic and diluted) and $0.53 (basic and diluted), based on 51,479,409 weighted average common shares as of September 30, 2017, compared to $0.31 (basic and diluted) and $0.92 (basic and diluted) for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, based on 51,479,409 and 51,985,537 weighted average common shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively.

Net (Decrease)/Increase in Net Assets Resulting from Operations

Net increasedecrease in net assets resulting from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017March 31, 2024 was approximately $6.0$1.8 million and $27.2 million, respectively, compared with a net increase in net assets resulting from operations of approximately $42.9 million and $74.1$6.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2016, respectively. This decrease was largely due to lower net unrealized appreciation on investments of $39.8 million and $57.3 million, respectively.March 31, 2023.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively,March 31, 2024, the net increasedecrease in net assets resulting from operations per common share was $0.12 (basic and diluted) and $0.53$0.03 (basic and diluted), compared to a net increase in net assets resulting from operations per share of approximately $0.83 (basic)$0.13 (basic and $0.72 (diluted)diluted) for the three months ended September 30, 2016 and a net increase in net assets resulting from operations per share of approximately $1.42 (basic) and $1.28 (diluted) for the nine months ended September 30, 2016. Due to the anti-dilutive effect on the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three months ended September 30, 2017, the adjustments for interest on Convertible Notes, base management fee, deferred issuance costs and net investment income incentive fees as well as adjustments for dilutive effect of Convertible Notes were excluded from the respective period’s diluted earnings per share computation.March 31, 2023.

Supplemental Information Regarding Core Net Investment Income

On a supplemental basis, we provide information relating to 1) core net investment income and 2) the ratio of core net investment income to net assets, which are non-GAAP measures. These measures are provided in addition to, but not as a substitute for, net investment income. Our non-GAAP measures may differ from similar measures by other companies, even if similar terms are used to identify such measures. Core net investment income represents net investment income adjusted for additional cash distributions received, or entitled to be received (if any, in either case), on our CLO equity investments (excluding those cash distributions believed to represent a return of capital) and also excludes any capital gains incentive fees we recognize but have no obligation to pay in any period. The Company did not recognize any capital gains incentive fees for the quarter ended September 30, 2017.

65

Income from investments in the “equity” class securities of CLO vehicles, for GAAP purposes, is recorded using the effective interest method based upon an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, compared to the cost resulting in an effective yield for the investment; the difference between the actual cash received or distributions entitled to be received and the effective yield calculation is an adjustment to cost. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from the cash distributions actually received by us during the period (referred to below as “CLO equity additional distributions”).

Further, in order to continue to qualify to be taxed as a RIC, we are required, among other things, to distribute at least 90% of our investment company taxable income annually. Therefore, core net investment income may provide a better indication of estimated taxable income for a reporting period than does GAAP net investment income, although we can offer no assurance that will be the case as the ultimate tax character of our earnings cannot be determined until tax returns are prepared after the end of a fiscal year. We note that these non-GAAP measures may not be useful indicators of taxable earnings, particularly during periods of market disruption and volatility.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Distributions

In order to qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, and to avoid corporate level tax on the income we distribute to our stockholders, we are required, under Subchapter M of the Code, to distribute at least 90% of our ordinary income and short-termshort-term capital gains to our stockholders on an annual basis.

Effective January 1, 2015, we recorded interest fromTo the extent our investments intaxable earnings fall below the equity class securitiestotal amount of CLO vehicles usingour distributions for that fiscal year, a portion of those distributions may be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders. Thus, the effective interest method in accordance withsource of a distribution to our stockholders may be the provisionsoriginal capital invested by the stockholder rather than our taxable ordinary income or capital gains. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a distribution payment carefully and should not assume that the source of ASC 325-40,Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, based upon an estimationany distribution is taxable ordinary income or capital gains. The final determination of an effective yield to the expected redemption utilizing estimated cash flows, including those CLO equity investments that have notnature of our distributions can only be made their inaugural distribution for the relevant period end. We monitor the expected residual payments, and effective yield is determined and updated periodically, as needed. Accordingly, investment income recognized on CLO equity securities in the GAAP statement of operations differs from both the tax-basis investment income and from the cash distributions we actually received during the period. CLO entities generally constitute “passive foreign investment companies” and are subject to complex tax rules; the calculation of taxable income attributed to a CLO equity investment can be dramatically different from the calculation of income for financial reporting purposes. Taxable income is based upon the distributable sharefiling of earnings as determined underour tax regulations for each CLO equity investment, while accountingreturn. We have until October 15, 2025, to file our federal income is recorded using the effective yield method. This method requires the calculation of an effective yield to expected redemption based upon an estimation of the amount and timing of future cash flows, including recurring cash flows as well as future principal repayments; the difference between the actual cash received (and record date distributions to be received) and the effective yield income calculation is an adjustment to cost. The effective yield is reviewed quarterly and adjusted as appropriate. Our final taxable earningstax return for the year ended December 31, 2016 resulted2024.

We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of these distributions from time to time. In addition, we may be limited in our ability to make distributions due to the asset coverage requirements applicable to us as a 50.7% non-taxable return of capital.

Pursuant to the Order, we are permitted to co-investco-invest in such investment opportunities with our affiliates if a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent directors make certain conclusions in connection with a co-investmentco-investment transaction, including, but not limited to, that (1) the terms of the potential co-investmentco-investment transaction, including the consideration to be paid, are reasonable and fair to us and our stockholders and do not involve overreaching in respect of us or our stockholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the potential co-investmentco-investment transaction is consistent with the interests of our stockholders and is consistent with our then-currentthen-current investment objective and strategies.

In the ordinary course of business, we may enter into transactions with portfolio companies that may be considered related party transactions. In order to ensure that we do not engage in any prohibited transactions with any persons affiliated with us, we have implemented certain policies and procedures whereby our executive officers screen each of our transactions for any possible affiliations between the proposed portfolio investment, us, companies controlled by us and our employees and directors.

ITEM 3.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2017, one debt investment in our portfolio was at a fixed rate, and the remaining 25 debt investments were at variable rates, representing approximately $0.8 million and $243.6 million in principal debt, respectively. At September 30, 2017,March 31, 2024, all but six of our variable rate investments were income producing. The variable rates are generally based upon the five-yearfive-year U.S. Department of Treasury note, the Prime rate, or LIBOR,SOFR, and, in the case of our bilateral investments, are generally reset annually, whereas our non-bilateralnon-bilateral investments generally reset quarterly. We expect that future debt investments will generally be made at variable rates. Many of the variable rate investments contain interest rate floors.

To illustrateInterest rate risk is defined as the potential impactsensitivity of a changeour current and future earnings to interest rate volatility, including relative changes in different interest rates, variability of spread relationships, the difference in re-pricing intervals between our assets and liabilities and the effect that interest rates may have on our cash flows. Changes in the underlyinggeneral level of interest rates can affect our net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income earned on interest earning assets and our interest expense incurred in connection with our interest-bearing debt and liabilities. Changes in interest rates can also affect, among other things, our ability to acquire leveraged loans, high yield bonds and other debt investments and the value of our investment portfolio.

We may in the future hedge against interest rate onfluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our net investment income as it pertainsability to our debt portfolio, we have assumed a 1% increaseparticipate in the underlying five-year Treasury note, the Prime rate or LIBOR, and no other change in our portfolio asbenefits of September 30, 2017. We have also assumed no outstanding variable rate borrowings duelower interest rates with respect to the repayment of the TICC CLO 2012-1 secured notes. Under this analysis, net investment income would increase by $2.4 million on an annualized basis, reflecting the amount of investments in our portfolio which have impliedwith fixed interest rates.

Based on our Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of March 31, 2024, the following table shows the annualized impact on net investment income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates for our settled investments (considering interest rate floors that would be unaffected byfor floating rate instruments), excluding CLO equity investments. The base interest rate case assumes the rates on our portfolio investments remain unchanged from the actual effective interest rates as of March 31, 2024. These hypothetical calculations are based on a 1% changemodel of the investments in our portfolio, held as of March 31, 2024, and are only adjusted for assumed changes in the underlying base interest rate.rates. Although management believes that this analysis is indicative of our existing interest rate sensitivity, it does not adjust for changes in the credit quality, size and composition of our portfolio, and other business developments, including a change in the level of our borrowings, that could affect the net increase (or decrease) in net assets resulting from operations. Accordingly, no assurances can be given that actual results would not differ materially from the results under this hypothetical analysis.

We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts. 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.

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. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefitcost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures.

(b) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
