These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond control of Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc.

● actual or potential conflicts of interest with the Advisor and its affiliates;

We assume no obligation to update or revise publicly any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we have filed or in the future may file with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including annual reports on Form 10-K, registration statements on Form 10, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.

Organization

Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. (the “Company”) is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company intends to qualify as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

The Company was formed as a Delaware corporation to make investments in middle-market companies and commenced operations on February 5, 2021.

As of March 31, 2023, the Company has entered into subscription agreements with investors for an aggregate capital commitment of $832,342 to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. See Note 11 – Subsequent Events.

KA Credit Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) is an indirect subsidiary of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. (“KACALP” or “Kayne Anderson”). The Advisor is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisory Act of 1940, as amended. Subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), the Advisor is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring investments, determining the value of the investments and monitoring its investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. The Board consists of seven directors, four of whom are independent.

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through debt investments in middle-market companies.

The Company conducts private offerings of its Common Stock to investors in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). At the closing of any private offering, each investor will make a capital commitment (a “Capital Commitment”) to purchase shares of its Common Stock (“Shares”) pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Company. Investors will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase Shares up to the amount of their respective Capital Commitments each time the Company delivers a notice to the investors. Following the initial closing of the private offering (the “Initial Closing”) on February 5, 2021 and prior to any Liquidity Event (as defined below), the Advisor may, in its sole discretion, permit additional closings of the private offering. A “Liquidity Event” is defined as (a) an initial public offering of Shares (the “Initial Public Offering”) or the listing of Shares on an exchange (together with the Initial Public Offering, an “Exchange Listing”), (b) the sale of the Company or (c) a disposition of the Company’s investments and distribution of the net proceeds (after repayment of borrowed funds or other forms of leverage) to the Company’s investors.

Accordingly, the Company consolidated the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, Kayne Anderson BDC Financing, LLC, (“KABDCF”) and KABDC Corp, LLC, in its consolidated financial statements. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. As of March 31, 2023, KABDC Corp, LLC held no investments.

C. Use of Estimates—the preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

D. Cash and Cash Equivalents—cash and cash equivalents include short-term, liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less and include money market fund accounts.

E. Investment Valuation, Fair Value—the Company conducts the valuation of its investments consistent with GAAP and the 1940 Act. The Company’s investments will be valued no less frequently than quarterly, in accordance with the terms of Topic 820 of the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s Accounting Standards Codification, Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures (“ASC 820”).

Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board of Directors has designated the Advisor as the “valuation designee” to perform fair value determinations of the Company’s portfolio holdings, subject to oversight by and periodic reporting to the Board. The valuation designee performs fair valuation of the Company’s portfolio holdings in accordance with the Company’s Valuation Program, as approved by the Board.

Traded Investments (Level 1 or Level 2)

Investments for which market quotations are readily available will typically be valued at those market quotations. Traded investments such as corporate bonds, preferred stock, bank notes, loans or loan participations are valued by using the bid price provided by an independent pricing service, by an independent broker, the agent bank, syndicate bank or principal market maker. When price quotes for investments are not available, or such prices are stale or do not represent fair value in the judgment of the Company’s Advisor, fair market value will be determined using the Advisor’s valuation process for investments that are privately issued or otherwise restricted as to resale.

The Company may also invest, to a lesser extent, in equity securities purchased in conjunction with debt investments. While the Company anticipates these equity securities to be issued by privately held companies, the Company may hold equity securities that are publicly traded. Equity securities listed on any exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the most recent bid and ask prices on such day. Securities admitted to trade on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Equity securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price on the business day as of which such value is being determined at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market, but excluding securities admitted to trading on the NASDAQ, are valued at the closing bid prices.

Non-Traded Investments (Level 3)

Investments that are privately issued or otherwise restricted as to resale, as well as any security for which (a) reliable market quotations are not available in the judgment of the Company’s Advisor, or (b) the independent pricing service or independent broker does not provide prices or provides a price that in the judgment of the Company’s Advisor is stale or does not represent fair value, shall each be valued in a manner that most fairly reflects fair value of the security on the valuation date. The Company expects that a significant majority of its investments will be Level 3 investments. Unless otherwise determined by the Advisor, the following valuation process is used for the Company’s Level 3 investments:

● Valuation Designee. The applicable investments will be valued no less frequently than quarterly by the Advisor, with new investments valued at the time such investment was made. The value of each Level 3 investment will be initially reviewed by the persons responsible for such portfolio company or investment. The Advisor will use a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs to determine a preliminary value. The Advisor will specify the titles of the persons responsible for determining the fair value of Company investments, including by specifying the particular functions for which they are responsible, and will reasonably segregate fair value determinations from the portfolio management of the Company such that the portfolio manager(s) may not determine, or effectively determine by exerting substantial influence on, the fair values ascribed to portfolio investments.

● Valuation Firm. Quarterly, a third-party valuation firm engaged by the Advisor reviews the valuation methodologies and calculations employed for each of the Company’s investments that the Advisor has placed on the “watch list” and approximately 25% of the Company’s remaining investments. The third-party valuation firm will review and independently value all of the Level 3 investments at least once per year, on a rolling twelve-month basis. The quarterly report issued by the third-party valuation firm will provide positive assurance on the fair values of the investments reviewed.

● Oversight. The Board has appointed the Advisor as the valuation designee for the Company for purposes of making determinations of fair value as permitted by Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Audit Committee shall aid the Board in overseeing the Advisor’s fair valuation of securities that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. The Audit Committee shall meet quarterly to review the fair value determinations, processes and written reports of the Advisor as part of the Board’s oversight responsibilities.

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

F. Interest Income Recognition— Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts, amortization of premiums and payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest. Discounts from and premiums to par value on investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective yield method. To the extent loans contain PIK provisions, PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each applicable agreement, is accrued and recorded as interest income and added to the principal balance of the loan. PIK interest income added to the principal balance is generally collected upon repayment of the outstanding principal. To maintain the Company’s status as a RIC, this non-cash source of income must be paid out to stockholders in the form of dividends for the year the income was earned, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. The amortized cost of investments represents the original cost adjusted for any accretion of discounts, amortization of premiums and PIK interest.

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the Company’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid or there is no longer any reasonable doubt that such principal or interest will be collected in full and, in the Company’s judgment, principal and interest are likely to remain current. The Company may make exceptions to this policy if the loan has sufficient collateral value (i.e., typically measured as enterprise value of the portfolio company) or is in the process of collection. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any investments in portfolio companies on non-accrual status.

G. Debt Issuance Costs—Costs incurred by the Company related to the issuance of its debt (credit facilities) are capitalized and amortized over the period the debt is outstanding. The Company has classified the costs incurred to issue its credit facilities as a deduction from the carrying value of the credit facilities on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For the purpose of calculating the Company’s asset coverage ratios pursuant to the 1940 Act, deferred issuance costs are not deducted from the carrying value of debt or preferred stock.

H. Dividends to Common Stockholders—Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the Company’s board of directors each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management and considers the level of undistributed taxable income carried forward from the prior year for distribution in the current year. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

I. Organizational Costs—organizational expenses include costs and expenses relating to the formation and organization of the Company. The Company has reimbursed the Advisor for these costs which are expensed as incurred.

J. Offering Costs—offering costs include costs and expenses incurred in connection with the offering of the Company’s common stock. These initial costs were capitalized as deferred offering expenses and included in prepaid expenses and other assets on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. These costs were amortized over a twelve-month period beginning with the commencement of operations. These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs incurred in connection with the Company’s share offerings, the preparation of the Company’s registration statement and registration fees. The Company reimbursed the Advisor for these costs.

K. Income Taxes—it is the Company’s intention to continue to be treated as and to qualify each year for special tax treatment afforded a RIC under the Code. As long as the Company meets certain requirements that govern its sources of income, diversification of assets and timely distribution of earnings to stockholders, the Company will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax.

The Company must pay distributions equal to 90% of its investment company taxable income (ordinary income and short-term capital gains) to qualify as a RIC and it must distribute all of its taxable income (ordinary income, short-term capital gains and long-term capital gains) to avoid federal income taxes. The Company will be subject to federal income tax on any undistributed portion of income. For purposes of the distribution test, the Company may elect to treat as paid on the last day of its taxable year all or part of any distributions that are declared after the end of its taxable year if such distributions are declared before the due date of its tax return, including any extensions.

(Unaudited)

All RICs are subject to a non-deductible 4% excise tax on income that is not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with the calendar year distribution requirements. To avoid the tax, the Company must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its net capital gains for the one-year period ending on December 31, the last day of our taxable year, and (iii) undistributed amounts from previous years on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax. A distribution will be treated as paid during the calendar year if it is paid during the calendar year or declared by the Company in October, November or December of such year, payable to stockholders of record on a date during such months and paid by the Company no later than January of the following year. Any such distributions paid during January of the following year will be deemed to be received by stockholders on December 31 of the year the distributions are declared, rather than when the distributions are actually received.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

L. LIBOR Transition — The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) announced that certain London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) tenors in certain currencies ceased to be provided at the end of 2021 with all remaining tenors ceasing in June 2023. Alternatives to LIBOR have been established, or are in development in most major currencies, including the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) that is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR. Markets are developing in response to these new reference rates. The LIBOR transition has become increasingly well-defined in advance of its anticipated discontinuation, but uncertainty remains related to the liquidity impact of the change in rates, and how to appropriately adjust these rates at the time of transition. At this time, it is not possible to predict fully the ultimate outcome of these changes.

M. Commitments and Contingencies—in the normal course of business, the Company may enter into contracts that provide a variety of general indemnifications. Any exposure to the Company under these arrangements could involve future claims that may be made against the Company. Currently, no such claims exist or are expected to arise and, accordingly, the Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnifications.

Note 3. Agreements and Related Party Transactions

A. Administration Agreement—on February 5, 2021, the Company entered into an Administration Agreement with its Advisor, which serves as its Administrator and will provide or oversee the performance of its required administrative services and professional services rendered by others, which will include (but are not limited to), accounting, payment of our expenses, legal, compliance, operations, technology and investor relations, preparation and filing of its tax returns, and preparation of financial reports provided to its stockholders and filed with the SEC. On March 7, 2023, the Board approved a one-year renewal of the Administration Agreement through March 15, 2024.

The Company will reimburse the Administrator for its costs and expenses incurred in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, which may include, after completion of our Exchange Listing, its allocable portion of office facilities, overhead, and compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by its officers (including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and its respective staff who provide services to the Company. As the Company reimburses the Administrator for its expenses, the Company will indirectly bear such cost. The Administration Agreement may be terminated by either party with 60 days’ written notice.

B. Investment Advisory Agreement—on February 5, 2021, the Company entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with its Advisor. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement with its Advisor, the Company will pay its Advisor a fee for investment advisory and management services consisting of two components—a base management fee and an incentive fee. The Advisor may, from time-to-time, grant waivers on the Company’s obligations, including waivers of the base management fee and/or incentive fee, under the Investment Advisory Agreement. The Investment Advisory Agreement may be terminated by either party with 60 days’ written notice. On March 7, 2023, the Board approved a one-year renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement through March 15, 2024.

Base Management Fee

Prior to an Exchange Listing, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate of 0.90% of the fair market value of the Company’s investments including, in each case, assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage, but excluding cash, U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase. After an Exchange Listing, the base management fee will be calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the fair market value of the Company’s investments. However, following an Exchange Listing, if borrowed funds or other forms of leverage utilized to finance the Company’s investments is greater than a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.0x, the base management fee will be 1.00% of the fair market value of the portion of the Company’s investments financed with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage above a 1.0x debt-to-equity ratio.

The base management fee will be payable quarterly in arrears and calculated based on the average of the Company’s fair market value of investments, at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters, including, in each case, assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage, but excluding cash, U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase. Base management fees for any partial quarter will be appropriately pro-rated.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company incurred base management fees of $2,685 and $1,326, respectively.

Incentive Fee

The Company will also pay the Advisor an incentive fee. The incentive fee will consist of two parts—an incentive fee on income and an incentive fee on capital gains. Described in more detail below, these components of the incentive fee will be largely independent of each other with the result that one component may be payable even if the other is not.

Incentive Fee on Income

The incentive fee based on income (the “income incentive fee”) is determined and paid quarterly in arrears in cash (subject to the limitations described in “Payment of Incentive Fees” below). The Company’s quarterly pre-incentive fee net investment income must exceed a preferred return of 1.50% of the Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter (6.0% annualized but not compounded) (the “Hurdle Amount”) in order for the Company to receive an income incentive fee. The income incentive fee is calculated as follows:

● Prior to an Exchange Listing: 100% of our pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter in excess of 1.50% of the Company’s NAV at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter until the Advisor has received 10% of the total pre-incentive fee net income for that calendar quarter and, for pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 1.6667%, 10% of all remaining pre-incentive fee net investment income for that quarter.

● After an Exchange Listing: 100% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter in excess of 1.50% of the Company’s NAV at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter until the Advisor has received 15% of the total pre-incentive fee net income for that calendar quarter and, for pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of 1.7647%, 15% of all remaining pre-incentive fee net investment income for that quarter.

Incentive Fee on Capital Gains

The incentive fee on capital gains (the “capital gains incentive fee”) will be calculated and payable in arrears in cash as follows:

● Prior to an Exchange Listing: 10% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from formation through (a) the day before an Exchange Listing, (b) upon consummation of a Liquidity Event or (c) upon the termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis. For the purpose of computing the capital gain incentive fee, the calculation methodology will look through derivative financial instruments or swaps as if the Company owned the reference assets directly.

● After an Exchange Listing: 15% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from formation through the end of a given calendar year or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees.

Payment of Incentive Fees

Prior to an Exchange Listing, any incentive fees earned by the Advisor shall accrue as earned but only become payable in cash to the Advisor upon consummation of an Exchange Listing. To the extent the Company does not complete an Exchange Listing, the incentive fees will be payable to the Advisor (a) upon consummation of a sale of the Company or (b) once substantially all the proceeds from a Company Liquidation payable to the Company’s stockholders have been distributed to such stockholders.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company incurred incentive fees on income of $2,138 and no incentive fees on capital gains. For the three months ended March 31, 2022, the Company incurred incentive fees on income of $953 and on realized gains of $2 (total of $955).

C. Other—KACALP, an affiliate of the Advisor, made an equity contribution of $10 to the Company on December 18, 2018.

Note 5. Fair Value

The Fair Value Measurement Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (ASC 820) defines fair value as the price at which an orderly transaction to sell an asset or to transfer a liability would take place between market participants under current market conditions at the measurement date. As required by ASC 820, the Company has performed an analysis of all investments measured at fair value to determine the significance and character of all inputs to their fair value determination. Inputs are the assumptions, along with considerations of risk, that a market participant would use to value an asset or a liability. In general, observable inputs are based on market data that is readily available, regularly distributed and verifiable that the Company obtains from independent, third-party sources. Unobservable inputs are developed by the Company based on its own assumptions of how market participants would value an asset or a liability.

The fair value hierarchy prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into the following three broad categories.

Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted unadjusted prices for identical instruments in active markets traded on a national exchange to which the Company has access at the date of measurement.

Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets. Level 2 inputs are those in markets for which there are few transactions, the prices are not current, little public information exists or instances where prices vary substantially over time or among brokered market makers.

Level 3 — Model derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are those inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions that market participants would use to price the asset or liability based on the best available information.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the determination of which category within the fair value hierarchy is appropriate for any given financial instrument is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the financial instrument.

The following tables present the fair value hierarchy of investments as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Note that the valuation levels below are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment.

(Unaudited)

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not recognize any transfers to or from Level 3. The increase in unrealized gain (loss) relates to investments that were held during the period. The Company includes these unrealized gains and losses on the Statement of Operations – Net Change in Unrealized Gains (Losses).

Valuation Techniques and Unobservable Inputs

Non-traded debt investments are typically valued using either a market yield analysis or an enterprise value analysis. For debt investments that are not considered to be credit impaired, the Advisor uses a market yield analysis to determine fair value. If the debt investment is considered to be credit impaired (which is determined by performing an enterprise value analysis), the Advisor will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value.

To determine fair value using a market yield analysis, the Advisor discounts the contractual cash flows of each investment at an appropriate discount rate (the market yield). To determine the estimated market yield for its debt investments, the Advisor analyzes changes in the risk/reward (measured by yields and leverage) of middle market indices as compared to changes in risk/reward for the underlying investment and estimates the appropriate discount rate for such debt investment. In this context, the discount rate and the fair market value of the investment is impacted by the structure and pricing of the security relative to current market yields for similar investments in similar businesses as well as the financial performance of such business. In performing this analysis, the Advisor considers data sources including, but not limited to: (i) industry publications, such as S&P Global’s High-End Middle Market Lending Review; Thomson Reuter’s Refinitiv Middle Market Monthly Stats; CapitalIQ; Pitchbook News; The Lead Left, and other data sources; (ii) comparable investments reviewed or completed by affiliates of the Advisor, and (iii) information obtained and provided by the Advisor’s independent valuation managers.

To determine if a debt investment is credit impaired, the Advisor estimates the enterprise value of the business and compares such estimate to the outstanding indebtedness of such business. The Advisor utilizes the following valuation methodologies to determine the estimated enterprise value of the company: (i) analysis of valuations of publicly traded companies in a similar line of business (“public company comparable analysis”), (ii) analysis of valuations of M&A transaction valuations for companies in a similar line of business (“precedent transaction analysis”), (iii) discounted cash flows (“DCF analysis”) and (iv) other valuation methodologies.

In determining the non-traded debt investment valuations, the following factors are considered, where relevant: the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the company’s ability to make interest payments, amortization payments (if any) and other fixed charges; call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt security; the company’s historical and projected financial results; the markets in which the company does business; changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that may affect the price at which similar investments may be valued; and other relevant factors.

Equity investments in private companies are typically valued using one of or a combination of the following valuation techniques: (i) public company comparable analysis, (ii) precedent transaction analysis and (iii) DCF analysis.

Under all of these valuation techniques, the Advisor estimates operating results of the companies in which it invests, including earnings before interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) and free cash flow. These estimates utilize unobservable inputs such as historical operating results, which may be unaudited, and projected operating results, which will be based on operating assumptions for such company. Investment performance data utilized will be the most recently available as of the measurement date which in many cases may reflect up to a one quarter lag in information. These estimates will be sensitive to changes in assumptions specific to such company as well as general assumptions for the industry. Other unobservable inputs utilized in the valuation techniques outlined above include: discounts for lack of marketability, selection of publicly traded companies, selection of similar precedent transactions, selected ranges for valuation multiples and expected required rates of return (discount rates).

Note 6. Debt

Subscription Credit Agreement 

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had a $125,000 credit agreement (the “Subscription Credit Agreement”) with certain lenders party thereto. The Subscription Credit Agreement permits the Company to elect the commitment amount each quarter to borrow up to $125,000, subject to availability under the borrowing base which is calculated based on the unused capital commitments of the investors meeting various eligibility requirements. The interest rate under the Subscription Credit Agreement is equal to the Secured Overnight Funding Rate (“SOFR”) plus 1.975% (subject to a 0.275% SOFR floor). The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on any unused portion of the Subscription Credit Agreement. The Company also pays an extension fee of 0.05% per quarter on the elected commitment amount on the first day of each calendar quarter. The Subscription Credit Agreement will expire on December 31, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the average amount of borrowings outstanding under the Subscription Credit Agreement were $89,311 and $52,567, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.52% and 2.25%, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $92,000 outstanding under the Subscription Credit Agreement at a weighted average interest rate of 6.77%.

Corporate Credit Facility

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Corporate Credit Facility”), that has a total commitment of $400,000. The Company entered into the Corporate Credit Facility on February 18, 2022. The Corporate Credit Facility’s commitment termination date and the final maturity date are February 18, 2026 and February 18, 2027, respectively. The Corporate Credit Facility also provides for a feature that allows the Company, under certain circumstances, to increase the overall size of the Corporate Credit Facility to a maximum of $550,000. The interest rate on the Corporate Credit Facility is equal to Term SOFR (a forward-looking rate based on SOFR futures) plus an applicable spread of 2.35% per annum or an “alternate base rate” (as defined in the agreements governing the Corporate Credit Facility) plus an applicable spread of 1.25%. The Company is also required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on any unused portion of the Corporate Credit Facility.

Under the Corporate Credit Facility, the Company is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar revolving credit facilities, including, without limitation, covenants related to: (a) limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, (b) limitations on certain investments, (c) limitations on certain restricted payments, (d) maintaining a certain minimum stockholders’ equity, and (e) maintaining a ratio of total assets (less total liabilities not representing indebtedness) to total indebtedness of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries of not less than 1.5:1.0. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the agreements governing the Corporate Credit Facility. Amounts available to borrow under the Corporate Credit Facility are subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets (based on their value as determined pursuant to the Corporate Credit Facility) that are pledged as collateral. The Corporate Credit Facility is secured by certain assets in the Company’s portfolio and excludes investments held by Kayne Anderson BDC Financing LLC (“KABDCF”) under the Revolving Funding Facility (as defined below).

For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the average amount of borrowings outstanding under the Corporate Credit Facility was $289,711 and $36,400, respectively, with a weighted average interest rate of 6.81% and 2.48%, respectively. As of March 31, 2023, the Company had $297,000 outstanding under the Corporate Credit Facility at a weighted average interest rate of 7.15%.

Revolving Funding Facility

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had a senior secured revolving funding facility (the “Revolving Funding Facility”), that has a total commitment of $350,000. The Company and KABDCF entered into the Revolving Funding Facility on February 18, 2022. The Revolving Funding Facility is secured by all of the assets held by KABDCF and the Company has agreed that it will not grant or allow a lien on the membership interest of KABDCF. The end of the reinvestment period and the stated maturity date for the Revolving Funding Facility are February 18, 2025 and February 18, 2027, respectively. The interest rate on the Revolving Funding Facility is equal to daily SOFR plus 2.75% per annum. KABDCF is also required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.50% and 1.50% per annum depending on the size of the unused portion of the Revolving Funding Facility. Amounts available to borrow under the Revolving Funding Facility are subject to a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets held by KABDCF and is subject to limitations with respect to the loans securing the Revolving Funding Facility, including restrictions on, loan size, payment frequency and status, as well as restrictions on portfolio company leverage, all of which may also affect the borrowing base and therefore amounts available to borrow. The Company and KABDCF are also required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. These covenants are subject to important limitations and exceptions that are described in the agreements governing the Revolving Funding Facility.

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies

The Company had an aggregate of $135,707 and $149,338, respectively, of unfunded commitments to provide debt financing to its portfolio companies as of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. Such commitments are generally subject to the satisfaction of certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and certain operational metrics. The commitment period for these amounts may be shorter than the maturity date if drawn or funded. These commitments are not reflected in the Company’s consolidated statement of assets and liabilities. Consequently, such commitments result in an element of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company’s consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.

Note 9. Earnings Per Share

In accordance with the provisions of ASC Topic 260, Earnings per Share (“ASC 260”), basic earnings per share is computed by dividing earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period. Other potentially dilutive common shares, and the related impact to earnings, are considered when calculating earnings per share on a diluted basis. As of March 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no dilutive shares.

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share of common stock for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022.

	For the three months ended
	March 31, 2023		March 31, 2022

(1) The per common share data was derived by using weighted average shares outstanding.

(2) On February 5, 2021, the initial offering price of $15.00 per share less $0.14 per share of organizational costs.

(3) Realized and unrealized gains and losses per share in this caption are balancing amounts necessary to reconcile the change in net asset value per share for the period, and may not reconcile with the aggregate gains and losses in the Consolidated Statement of Operations due to share transactions during the period.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no such share transactions including the effect of share issuances. In periods where shares are issued, shares are issued at prices that reflect the aggregate amount of the Company’s initial organizational and offering expenses. As a result, investors subscribing after the initial capital call are allocated organizational expenses consistently with all stockholders.

(4) Total return is calculated as the change in net asset value (“NAV”) per share during the period, plus distributions per share (if any), divided by the beginning NAV per share. The calculation also assumes reinvestment of dividends at actual prices pursuant to the Company’s dividend reinvestment plan. Total return is not annualized.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes and other financial information appearing elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Except as otherwise specified, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company” refer to Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc.

Overview and Investment Framework

Kayne Anderson BDC, Inc. was formed as a Delaware corporation to make investments in middle-market companies and commenced operations on February 5, 2021. We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we intend to qualify, annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

We are managed by KA Credit Advisors, LLC (the “Advisor”) which is an indirect subsidiary of Kayne Anderson Capital Advisors, L.P. (“KACALP” or “Kayne Anderson”). The Advisor is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as an investment advisor under the Investment Advisory Act of 1940. Subject to the overall supervision of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), the Advisor is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring investments, determining the value of the investments and monitoring its investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. The Board consists of seven directors, four of whom are independent.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation primarily through debt investments in middle-market companies. We define “middle-market companies” as U.S.-based companies that, in general, generate between $10 million and $150 million of annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA. We refer to companies that generate between $10 million and $50 million of annual EBITDA as “core middle-market companies” and companies that generate between $50 million and $150 million of annual EBITDA as “upper middle-market companies.”

We intend to achieve our investment objective by investing primarily in first lien senior secured, unitranche and split-lien loans (collectively, “secured middle market loans”) to privately held middle-market companies. Similar to first lien senior secured loans, unitranche loans typically have a first lien on all assets of the borrower, but provide leverage at levels similar to a combination of first lien and second lien and/or subordinated loans. Split-lien loans are loans that otherwise satisfy the criteria of a first lien loan but which have been structured with a credit facility that is senior in right of payment with respect to working capital assets of the borrower and a term loan that is collateralized by all other assets of the borrower. Depending on market conditions, we expect that at least 90% of our portfolio (including investments purchased with proceeds from borrowings) will be invested in secured middle market loans. It is anticipated that most of these investments will be in core middle market companies, with the remainder in upper middle market companies. The remaining 10% of our portfolio may be invested in higher-returning investments, including, but not limited to, equity securities purchased in conjunction with secured middle market loans and other opportunistic investments (collectively “Opportunistic Investments”), including junior debt, real estate debt and infrastructure credit investments. We expect that the secured middle market loans we invest in will generally have stated maturities of no more than six years.

We intend to execute on our investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan sourcing channels developed by Kayne Anderson’s middle market private credit team, which includes an extensive network of private equity firms, other middle-market lenders, financial advisors and intermediaries, and management teams, (2) selecting investments within our middle-market company focus, (3) implementing Kayne Anderson’s middle market private credit team’s proven underwriting process, and (4) drawing upon the experience and resources of our Advisor’s investment team and the broader Kayne Anderson network.

We believe our Advisor’s disciplined approach to origination, credit analysis, portfolio construction and risk management should allow us to achieve attractive risk-adjusted returns while preserving investor capital. We anticipate the portfolio will be comprised of a broad mix of loans, with diversity among investment size, industry focus and geography. The Advisor’s team of professionals will conduct in-depth due diligence on prospective investments during the underwriting process and will be heavily involved in structuring the credit terms of each investment. Once an investment has been made, our Advisor will closely monitor portfolio investments and take a proactive approach identifying and addressing sector or company specific risks. The Advisor maintains a regular dialogue with portfolio company management teams (as well as their financial sponsors, where applicable), reviews detailed operating and financial results on a regular basis (typically monthly or quarterly) and monitors current and projected liquidity needs, in addition to other portfolio management activities.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our liquidity and capital resources are generated primarily from the net proceeds of any offering of our Shares, proceeds from borrowing on our credit facilities and from cash flows from interest and fees earned from our investments and principal repayments and proceeds from sales of our investments. Our primary use of cash will be investments in portfolio companies, payments of our expenses, repayments of borrowed amounts and payment of cash distributions to our stockholders.

In accordance with the 1940 Act, we are required to meet a coverage ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total borrowings and other senior securities (and any preferred stock that we may issue in the future) of at least 150%. If this ratio declines below 150%, we cannot incur additional leverage and could be required to sell a portion of our investments to repay some leverage when it is disadvantageous to do so. As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, our asset coverage ratios were 190% and 203%. We currently intend to target asset coverage of 200% to 180% (which equates to a debt-to-equity ratio of 1.0x to 1.25x) but may alter this target based on market conditions.

Over the next twelve months, we expect that cash and cash equivalents, taken together with our undrawn capital commitments and available capacity under our credit facilities, will be sufficient to conduct anticipated investment activities. Beyond twelve months, we expect that our cash and liquidity needs will continue to be met by cash generated from our ongoing operations as well as financing activities.

As of March 31, 2023, we had $664 million borrowed under our credit facilities and cash and cash equivalents of $26.4 million (including short-term investments), of which $7.1 million is cash received early from investors relating to the April 4, 2023 issuance of common stock. As of May 10, 2023, we had $652 million borrowed under our credit facilities and cash and cash equivalents of $7.7 million (including short-term investments).

Capital Contributions

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we did not issue any shares of our common stock related to capital called. During the three months ended March 31, 2022, we issued 4,191,292 shares of our common stock related to capital called at an aggregate purchase price of $68.6 million. As of May 10, 2023, we had aggregate capital commitments of $852.6 million. As of May 10, 2023, we had undrawn capital commitments of $234.9 million from investors ($617.7 million or 72.4% funded).

Credit Facilities

Corporate Credit Facility: As of March 31, 2023, we are party to a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Corporate Credit Facility”), that has a total commitment of $400 million. The facility’s commitment termination date and the final maturity date are February 18, 2026 and February 18, 2027, respectively. The Corporate Credit Facility also provides for a feature that allows us, under certain circumstances, to increase the overall size of the Corporate Credit Facility to a maximum of $550 million. The interest rate on the Corporate Credit Facility is equal to Term SOFR (a forward-looking rate based on SOFR futures) plus an applicable spread of 2.35% per annum or an “alternate base rate” (as defined in the agreements governing the Corporate Credit Facility) plus an applicable spread of 1.25%. We are also required to pay a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on any unused portion of the Corporate Credit Facility.

42

Revolving Funding Facility: As of March 31, 2023, we and our wholly owned, special purpose financing subsidiary, Kayne Anderson BDC Financing, LLC (“KABDCF”), are party to a senior secured revolving funding facility (the “Revolving Funding Facility”), that has a total commitment of $350 million. The Revolving Funding Facility is secured by all of the assets held by, and the membership interest in, KABDCF. The end of the reinvestment period and the stated maturity date for the Revolving Funding Facility are February 18, 2025 and February 18, 2027, respectively. The interest rate on the Revolving Funding Facility is equal to daily SOFR plus 2.75% per annum. KABDCF is also required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.50% and 1.50% per annum depending on the size of the unused portion of the Revolving Funding Facility.

Subscription Credit Agreement: As of March 31, 2023, we are party to a senior secured revolving credit agreement that includes a capital call facility (the “Subscription Credit Agreement”). The Subscription Credit Agreement permits us to elect the commitment amount each quarter to borrow up to $125 million, subject to availability under the borrowing base which is calculated based on the unused capital commitments of the investors meeting various eligibility requirements. The Subscription Credit Agreement has a maximum commitment of $125 million and the interest rate under the facility is equal to Term SOFR plus 1.975% (subject to a 0.275% floor). We are also required to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the Subscription Credit Agreement. We also pay an extension fee of 0.05% per quarter on the elected commitment amount on the first day of each calendar quarter. The Subscription Credit Agreement will expire on December 31, 2023.

Contractual Obligations

A summary of our significant contractual principal payment obligations related to the repayment of our outstanding indebtedness at March 31, 2023 is as follows:

	Payments Due by Period ($ in millions)
	Total		Less than 1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		After 5 years
Corporate Credit Facility	$	297.0	$	-	$	-	$	297.0	$	-
Revolving Funding Facility		275.0		-		-		275.0		-
Subscription Credit Agreement		92.0		92.0		-		-		-
Total contractual obligations	$	664.0	$	92.0	$	-	$	572.0	$	-

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of March 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we had an aggregate $135.7 million and $149.3 million, respectively, of unfunded commitments to provide debt financing to our portfolio companies. Such commitments are generally subject to the satisfaction of certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in our financial statements. Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not have any other off-balance sheet financings or liabilities.

Critical Accounting Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described below. The critical accounting policies should be read in conjunction with our risk factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and in this Quarterly Report. See Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2023, for more information on our critical accounting policies.

Investment Valuation

Traded Investments (Level 1 or Level 2)

Investments for which market quotations are readily available will typically be valued at those market quotations. Traded investments such as corporate bonds, preferred stock, bank notes, loans or loan participations are valued by using the bid price provided by an independent pricing service, by an independent broker, the agent bank, syndicate bank or principal market maker. When price quotes for investments are not available, or such prices are stale or do not represent fair value in the judgment of our Advisor, fair market value will be determined using our Advisor’s valuation process for investments that are privately issued or otherwise restricted as to resale.

We may also invest, to a lesser extent, in equity securities purchased in conjunction with debt investments. While we anticipate these equity securities to be issued by privately held companies, we may hold equity securities that are publicly traded. Equity securities listed on any exchange other than the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. (“NASDAQ”) are valued, except as indicated below, at the last sale price on the business day as of which such value is being determined. If there has been no sale on such day, the securities are valued at the mean of the most recent bid and ask prices on such day. Securities admitted to trade on the NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. Equity securities traded on more than one securities exchange are valued at the last sale price on the business day as of which such value is being determined at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. Equity securities traded in the over-the-counter market, but excluding securities admitted to trading on the NASDAQ, are valued at the closing bid prices.

Non-Traded Investments (Level 3)

Investments that are privately issued or otherwise restricted as to resale, as well as any security for which (a) reliable market quotations are not available in the judgment of our Advisor, or (b) the independent pricing service or independent broker does not provide prices or provides a price that in the judgment of our Advisor is stale or does not represent fair value, shall each be valued in a manner that most fairly reflects fair value of the security on the valuation date. We expect that a significant majority of our investments will be Level 3 investments. Unless otherwise determined by the Advisor, the following valuation process is used for our Level 3 investments:

● Valuation Designee. The applicable investments will be valued no less frequently than quarterly by the Advisor, with new investments valued at the time such investment was made. The value of each Level 3 investment will be initially reviewed by the persons responsible for such portfolio company or investment. The Advisor will use a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs to determine a preliminary value. The Advisor will specify the titles of the persons responsible for determining the fair value of Company investments, including by specifying the particular functions for which they are responsible, and will reasonably segregate fair value determinations from the portfolio management of the Company such that the portfolio manager(s) may not determine, or effectively determine by exerting substantial influence on, the fair values ascribed to portfolio investments.

● Valuation Firm. Quarterly, a third-party valuation firm engaged by the Advisor reviews the valuation methodologies and calculations employed for each of the Company’s investments that the Advisor has placed on the “watch list” and approximately 25% of the Company’s remaining investments. The third-party valuation firm will review and independently value all of the Level 3 investments at least once per year, on a rolling twelve-month basis. The quarterly report issued by the third-party valuation firm will provide positive assurance on the fair values of the investments reviewed.

● Oversight. The Board has appointed the Advisor as the valuation designee for the Company for purposes of making determinations of fair value as permitted by Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. The Audit Committee shall aid the Board in overseeing the Advisor’s fair valuation of securities that are not publicly traded or for which current market values are not readily available. The Audit Committee shall meet quarterly to review the fair value determinations, processes and written reports of the Advisor as part of the Board’s oversight responsibilities.

Refer to Note 5 – Fair Value – for more information on the Company’s valuation process.

Revenue Recognition

We record interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts. For loans and debt securities with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance, we generally will not accrue PIK interest for accounting purposes if the portfolio company valuation indicates that such PIK interest is not collectible. We do not accrue as a receivable interest on loans and debt securities for accounting purposes if we have reason to doubt our ability to collect such interest. OIDs, market discounts or premiums are accreted or amortized using the effective interest method as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income.

Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement. On February 5, 2021, we entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with our Advisor. On March 7, 2023, the Board approved a one-year renewal of the Investment Advisory Agreement through March 15, 2024. Our Advisor will agree to serve as our investment advisor in accordance with the terms of our Investment Advisory Agreement. Payments under our Investment Advisory Agreement in each reporting period will consist of the base management fee equal to a percentage of the fair market value of investments, including, in each case, assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage, but excluding cash, U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase as well as an incentive fee based on our performance.

For services rendered under the Investment Advisory Agreement, we will pay a base management fee quarterly in arrears to our Advisor based on the of the fair market value of our investments including, in each case, assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage, but excluding cash, U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase. We will also pay an incentive fee on income and an incentive fee on capital gains to our Advisor.

Prior to an Exchange Listing, any incentive fees earned by the Advisor shall accrue as earned but only become payable in cash to the Advisor upon consummation of an Exchange Listing. To the extent the Company does not complete an Exchange Listing, the incentive fees will be payable to the Advisor (a) upon consummation of a sale of the Company or (b) once substantially all proceeds from a Company Liquidation payable to the Company’s common stockholders have been distributed to such stockholders.

Administration Agreement. On February 5, 2021, we entered into an Administration Agreement with our Advisor, which serves as our Administrator pursuant to which the Administrator will furnish us with administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. On March 7, 2023, the Board approved a one-year renewal of the Administration Agreement through March 15, 2024. The Administrator will be reimbursed for administrative expenses it incurs on our behalf in performing its obligations. Such reimbursement may be made for our allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our independent directors) of office facilities, overhead, and compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by our officers (including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and their respective staff who provide services to us. As we reimburse the Administrator for its expenses, we will indirectly bear such cost. The Administrator engaged U.S. Bank Global Fund Services under a sub-administration agreement to assist the Administrator in performing certain of its administrative duties. On March 28, 2023, the Administrator engaged Ultimus Fund Solutions, LLC under a sub-administration agreement to assist the Administrator in performing certain of its administrative duties effective in the second quarter of 2023. The Administrator may enter into additional sub-administration agreements with third-parties to perform other administrative and professional services on behalf of the Administrator.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in our earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. Because we fund a portion of our investments with borrowings, our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. As a result, there can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

Assuming that the consolidated statement of assets and liabilities as of March 31, 2023 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact ($ in millions) of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rate (considering interest rate floors for floating rate instruments).

Change in Interest Rates	Increase (Decrease) in Interest Income			Increase (Decrease) in Interest Expense			Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Investment Income
Down 200 basis points	$	(25.0	)	$	(13.3	)	$	(11.7	)
Down 100 basis points	$	(12.5	)	$	(6.6	)	$	(5.9	)
Up 100 basis points	$	12.5		$	6.6		$	5.9
Up 200 basis points	$	25.0		$	13.3		$	11.7

The data in the table is based on the Company’s current statement of assets and liabilities.

We may hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as futures, options and forward contracts subject to the requirements of the 1940 Act. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in benefits of lower interest rates with respect to our portfolio of investments with fixed interest rates.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of March 31, 2023 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time 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-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II—OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

Neither we nor our Advisor is currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us, or against our Advisor.

From time to time, we, or our Advisor, may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under contracts with our portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, we do not expect that these proceedings will have a material effect upon our financial condition or results of operations.

From time to time we are involved in various legal proceedings, lawsuits and claims incidental to the conduct of our business. Our businesses are also subject to extensive regulation, which may result in regulatory proceedings against us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the risk factors described below and in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 are not the only risks facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Our business is dependent on bank relationships and recent strain on the banking system may adversely impact us.

The financial markets recently have encountered volatility associated with concerns about the balance sheets of banks, especially small and regional banks, which may have significant losses associated with investments that make it difficult to fund demands to withdraw deposits and other liquidity needs. Although the federal government has announced measures to assist these banks and protect depositors, some banks have already been impacted and others may be materially and adversely impacted. Our business is dependent on bank relationships and we are proactively monitoring the financial health of such bank relationships. Continued strain on the banking system may adversely impact our business, financial condition and results of operations.
