* Fair value as a percentage of net assets.
(1)All debt investments are income producing, unless otherwise noted. Barings Capital Investment Corporation’s (the “Company”) external investment adviser, Barings LLC (“Barings” or the “Adviser”), determines in good faith the fair value of the Company’s investments in accordance with a valuation policy and processes established by the Adviser, which have been approved by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). In addition, all debt investments are variable rate investments unless otherwise noted. Index-based floating interest rates are generally subject to a contractual minimum interest rate. Variable rate loans to the Company’s portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”), the Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate (“BBSY”), the Stockholm Interbank Offered Rate (“STIBOR”), the Canadian Dollar

For each such loan, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect on the date presented. SOFR-based contracts may include a credit spread adjustment that is charged in addition to the base rate and the stated spread. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan.
(2)All of the Company’s portfolio company investments (including joint venture investments), which as of March 31, 2024 represented 203.4% of the Company’s net assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales. The acquisition date represents the date of the Company’s initial investment in the relevant portfolio company.
(3)Investment is not a qualifying investment as defined under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Non-qualifying assets represent 26.6% of total investments at fair value as of March 31, 2024. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets. If at any time qualifying assets do not represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets, the Company will be precluded from acquiring any additional non-qualifying asset until such time as it complies with the requirements of Section 55(a).
(4)As defined in the 1940 Act, the Company is deemed to be an “affiliated person” of the portfolio company as the Company owns between 5% or more, up to 25% (inclusive), of the portfolio company’s voting securities (“non-controlled affiliate”).

* Fair value as a percentage of net assets.
(1)All debt investments are income producing, unless otherwise noted. The Adviser determines in good faith the fair value of the Company’s investments in accordance with a valuation policy and processes established by the Adviser, which have been approved by the Board, and the 1940 Act. In addition, all debt investments are variable rate investments unless otherwise noted. Index-based floating interest rates are generally subject to a contractual minimum interest rate. Variable rate loans to the Company’s portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that may be determined by reference to SOFR, EURIBOR, BBSY, STIBOR, CDOR, SONIA, SARON, NIBOR, BKBM or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the Federal Funds Rate or the Prime Rate), at the borrower’s option, which reset annually, semi-annually, quarterly or monthly. For each such loan, the Company has provided the interest rate in effect on the date presented. SOFR-based contracts may include a credit spread adjustment that is charged in addition to the base rate and the stated spread. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan.
(2)All of the Company’s portfolio company investments (including joint venture investments), which as of December 31, 2023 represented 206.9% of the Company’s net assets, are subject to legal restrictions on sales. The acquisition date represents the date of the Company’s initial investment in the relevant portfolio company.
(3)Investment is not a qualifying investment as defined under Section 55(a) of the 1940 Act. Non-qualifying assets represent 26.9% of total investments at fair value as of December 31, 2023. Qualifying assets must represent at least 70% of total assets at the time of acquisition of any additional non-qualifying assets. If at any time qualifying assets do not represent at least 70% of the Company’s total assets, the Company will be precluded from acquiring any additional non-qualifying asset until such time as it complies with the requirements of Section 55(a).
(4)As defined in the 1940 Act, the Company is deemed to be an “affiliated person” of the portfolio company as the Company owns between 5% or more, up to 25% (inclusive), of the portfolio company’s voting securities (“non-controlled affiliate”). Transactions related to investments in non-controlled “Affiliate Investments” for the year ended December 31, 2023 were as follows:

Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements
1. ORGANIZATION, BUSINESS, AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION
Organization and Business
The Company was formed on February 20, 2020 as a Maryland limited liability company and converted to a Maryland corporation on April 28, 2020. On July 13, 2020, the Company commenced operations and made its first portfolio company investment. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the 1940 Act. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated and intends to qualify annually as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
Description of Business
The Company is a financial services company that primarily lends to and invests in senior secured private debt investments in well-established middle-market businesses that operate across a wide range of industries. The Company is externally managed by Barings, an investment adviser that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). The Adviser, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”), is a leading global asset management firm, with $406.1 billion in assets under management as of March 31, 2024.
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company include the accounts of Barings Capital Investment Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The effects of all intercompany transactions between the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company is an investment company and, therefore, applies the specialized accounting and reporting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services – Investment Companies. ASC Topic 946 states that consolidation by the Company of an investee that is not an investment company is not appropriate, except when the Company holds a controlling interest in an operating company that provides all or substantially all of its services directly to the Company or to its portfolio companies. None of the portfolio investments made by the Company qualify for this exception. Therefore, the Company’s investment portfolio is carried on the Unaudited and Audited Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value, as discussed further in “Note 3. Investments,” with any adjustments to fair value recognized as “Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)” on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of financial statements for the interim period, have been reflected in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements. The current period’s results of operations are not necessarily indicative of results that ultimately may be achieved for the full fiscal year. Additionally, the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2023. Financial statements prepared on a U.S. GAAP basis require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Such estimates and assumptions could change in the future as more information becomes known, which could impact the amounts reported and disclosed herein.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update, 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) (“ASU 2022-03”), which affects all entities that have investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The effective date for the amendments in ASU 2022-03 are for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company determined this guidance will not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

2. AGREEMENTS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Investment Advisory Agreement
On June 24, 2020, the Company entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”)
with the Adviser. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser manages the Company’s day-to-day operations and provides the Company with investment advisory services. Among other things, the Adviser (i) determines the composition of the portfolio of the Company, the nature and timing of the changes therein and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments made by the Company; (iii) executes, closes, services and monitors the investments that the Company makes; (iv) determines the securities and other assets that the Company will purchase, retain or sell; (v) performs due diligence on prospective portfolio companies and (vi) provides the Company with such other investment advisory, research and related services as the Company may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of its funds.
The Advisory Agreement provides that, absent fraud, willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of the reckless disregard of its duties and obligations, the Adviser, and its officers, managers, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, members and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser (collectively, the “IA Indemnified Parties”), are entitled to indemnification from the Company for any damages, liabilities, costs, demands, charges, claims and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and amounts reasonably paid in settlement) incurred by the IA Indemnified Parties in or by reason of any pending, threatened or completed action, suit, investigation or other proceeding (including an action or suit by or in the right of the Company or its security holders) arising out of any actions or omissions or otherwise based upon the performance of any of the Adviser’s duties or obligations under the Advisory Agreement or otherwise as an investment adviser of the Company. The Adviser’s services under the Advisory Agreement are not exclusive, and the Adviser is generally free to furnish similar services to other entities so long as its performance under the Advisory Agreement is not adversely affected.
The Adviser has retained its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Baring International Investment Limited (“BIIL”), as a sub-adviser to manage European investments for the Company. BIIL is an investment adviser registered with the SEC in the United States and the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom with its principal office located in London, England. As of March 31, 2024, BIIL had approximately £17.0 billion in assets under management.
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser (i) a base management fee (the “Base Management Fee”) and (ii) an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”) as compensation for the investment advisory and management services it provides the Company thereunder.
Base Management Fee
The Base Management Fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Company’s gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage but excluding (i) cash and cash equivalents (as defined below) and (ii) net unsettled purchases and sales of investments. For services rendered under the Advisory Agreement, the Base Management Fee is payable quarterly in arrears. The Base Management Fee is calculated based on the average value of the Company’s gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters (including the quarter for which such fees are being calculated) and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter. For the Company’s first quarter, the Base Management Fee was calculated based on the value of the Company’s gross assets as of such quarter-end. The Base Management Fee for any partial quarter is appropriately pro-rated. For purposes of the Advisory Agreement, “cash equivalents” means U.S. government securities, money market fund investments, commercial paper instruments and other similar cash equivalent investments maturing within one year of purchase.
For both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Base Management Fees determined in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement were approximately $0.5 million. As of March 31, 2024, the Base Management Fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was unpaid and included in “Base management fees payable” in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2023, the Base Management Fee of $0.5 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was unpaid and included in “Base management fees payable” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
The Incentive Fee
The Incentive Fee consists of two parts: (i) an incentive fee based on pre-incentive fee net investment income (the “Income-Based Fee”) and (ii) an incentive fee based on capital gains (the “Capital Gains Fee”), which are described in more detail below.
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
Income-Based Fee
The Income-Based Fee is payable quarterly in arrears to the extent the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined below) for the most recently completed calendar quarter divided by the Company’s net assets as of the end of such calendar quarter (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any Income-Based Fees and Capital Gains Fees payable during the calendar quarter, and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the calendar quarter) (the “PIFNII Return”) exceeds the Hurdle Rate (as defined below) and is an amount less than or equal to the Incentive Fee Cap (as defined below). The Income-Based Fee is calculated as follows:
(a) No Income-Based Fee in any calendar quarter in which the PIFNII Return does not exceed the Hurdle Rate;
(b) 25% of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income with respect to that portion of the PIFNII Return that exceeds the Hurdle Rate but is less than or equal to the Catch-Up Hurdle Rate (as defined below) for such calendar quarter, which is referred to as the “Catch-Up”. The Catch-Up is intended to provide the Adviser with an Income-Based Fee equal to 12.5% of all of our Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income if the Company’s PIFNII Return equals or exceeds the quarterly Catch-Up Hurdle Rate in any calendar quarter; plus
(c) 12.5% of all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income with respect to that portion of the PIFNII Return that exceeds the Catch-Up Hurdle Rate.
The Income-Based Fee paid to the Adviser is subject to the Incentive Fee Cap.
(a) In any quarter that the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value, the Company pays no Income-Based Fee to the Adviser for such quarter.
(b) In any quarter that the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is a positive value but is less than the Income-Based Fee that is payable to the Adviser for such quarter (before giving effect to the Incentive Fee Cap), the Company pays an Income-Based Fee to the Adviser equal to the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter.
(c) In any quarter that the Incentive Fee Cap for such quarter is equal to or greater than the Income-Based Fee that is payable to the Adviser for such quarter (before giving effect to the Incentive Fee Cap), the Company pays an Income-Based Fee to the Adviser equal to the Income-Based Fee calculated as described above for such quarter without regard to the Incentive Fee Cap.
For purposes of the calculation of the Income-Based Fee, the following terms have the following meaning:
• “Hurdle Rate” for any calendar quarter means one fourth of the average daily Floating Rate over the applicable quarter.
• “Floating Rate” means, initially, the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”); provided that if a Floating Rate Transition Event and its related Floating Rate Replacement Date have occurred with respect to LIBOR, then “Floating Rate” means the Replacement Rate. In the event that the Floating Rate is a negative value, then the Floating Rate shall be zero. Beginning with the quarter ended June 30, 2023, the Floating Rate means the Replacement Rate following the occurrence of a Floating Rate Transition Event and its related Floating Rate Replacement Date.
• “Floating Rate Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the Floating Rate:
1. a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Floating Rate announcing that the administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Floating Rate permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Floating Rate;
2. a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Floating Rate, the central bank for the currency of the Floating Rate, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Floating Rate, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Floating Rate or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Floating Rate, which states that the administrator of the Floating Rate has ceased or will cease to provide the Floating Rate permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Floating Rate; or
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
3. a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Floating Rate announcing that the Floating Rate is no longer representative.
• “Floating Rate Replacement Date” means:
1. in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Floating Rate Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the relevant Floating Rate permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide such Floating Rate; or
2. in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Floating Rate Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information.
• “Replacement Rate” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined as of the Floating Rate Replacement Date.
1. the sum of: (a) Term SOFR and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; and
2. the sum of: (a) Compounded SOFR and (b) the applicable Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.
If a Replacement Rate is selected pursuant to clause (2) above, then each calendar quarter following such selection, if a redetermination of the Replacement Rate on such date would result in the selection of a Replacement Rate under clause (1) above, then (x) the Replacement Rate shall be redetermined on such date utilizing Term SOFR and (y) such redetermined Replacement Rate shall become the Floating Rate on or after such date. If redetermination of the Replacement Rate on such date as described in the preceding sentence would not result in the selection of a Replacement Rate under clause (1), then the Floating Rate shall remain the Replacement Rate as previously determined pursuant to clause (2) above.
• “Term SOFR” means the forward-looking term rate for the applicable Corresponding Tenor based on SOFR that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body.
• “Compounded SOFR” means the compounded average of SOFR for the applicable Corresponding Tenor, with the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate (which, for example, may be compounded in arrears with a lookback and/or suspension period as a mechanism to determine the interest amount payable for the applicable calendar quarter or compounded in advance) being established in accordance with the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining compounded SOFR.
• “SOFR” means with respect to any day means the Secured Overnight Financing Rate published for such day by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, as the administrator of the benchmark, (or a successor administrator) on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Website.
• “Corresponding Tenor” with respect to a Replacement Rate means a tenor (or observation period) having approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustment) as the applicable tenor (or observation period) for the then-current Floating Rate.
• “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the transition to the applicable Floating Rate.
• “Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or any successor thereto.
• “Catch-Up Hurdle Rate” for any calendar quarter means a rate that is equal to 200% of the Hurdle Rate.
• “Incentive Fee Cap” means for any calendar quarter an amount equal to (a) 12.5% of the Cumulative Net Return (as defined below) minus (b) the aggregate Income-Based Fee that was paid in respect of the period ending with the calendar quarter immediately preceding the most recently completed calendar quarter (or the portion thereof) included in the period for calculation of the Cumulative Net Return.
• “Cumulative Net Return” means (x) the aggregate Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income in respect of either (i) the trailing twelve calendar quarters ending with the calendar quarter in which the Income-Based Fee is
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
calculated or (ii) prior to the end of the twelfth calendar quarter after the effective date of the Advisory Agreement, the period from the effective date of the Advisory Agreement through the last day of the calendar quarter for which the Income-Based Fee is calculated minus (y) any Net Capital Loss (as defined below), if any, in respect of the relevant period.
• “Net Capital Loss” in respect of a particular period means the difference, if positive, between (i) aggregate capital losses, whether realized or unrealized, in such period and (ii) aggregate capital gains, whether realized or unrealized, in such period.
• “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” in respect of a period means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that we receive from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the Base Management Fee, any expenses payable under the administration agreement between the Company and the Adviser (the “Administration Agreement”), and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature such as market discount, original issue discount (“OID”), debt instruments with payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero-coupon securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Income-Based Fees determined in accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement were $2.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, the Income-Based Fee of $2.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was unpaid and included in “Incentive management fees payable” in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet. As of December 31, 2023, the Income-Based Fee of $3.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was unpaid and included in “Incentive management fees payable” in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheet.
Capital Gains Fee
The Capital Gains Fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon a liquidity event or a termination of the Advisory Agreement), and will equal 12.5% of the Company’s realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the end of the calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gains Fees. If such amount is zero or negative, then no Capital Gains Fee is payable for such year.
While the Advisory Agreement neither includes nor contemplates the inclusion of unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee, as required by U.S. GAAP, the Company accrues capital gains incentive fees on unrealized gains. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to the Adviser if the Company’s entire investment portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Adviser is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company accrued $0.4 million and nil, respectively, of Capital Gains Fees. As of March 31, 2024, the Capital Gains Fee of $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 was unpaid and included in “Incentive management fees payable” in the accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet. For the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company did not accrue any Capital Gains Fees.
The Advisory Agreement had an initial term of two years. The Advisory Agreement was most recently re-approved on May 7, 2024 by our Board, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act (the “Independent Directors”), and will continue automatically for successive one-year periods, provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the vote of the Board, or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company and (ii) the vote of a majority of the Independent Directors. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, upon 60 days’ written notice, (i) by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Company or (ii) by the vote of the Board, or (iii) by the Adviser upon 90 days’ written notice. The Advisory Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as such term is defined for purposes of Section 15(a)(4) of the 1940 Act).

3. INVESTMENTS
Portfolio Composition
The Company predominately invests in senior secured private debt investments in well-established middle-market businesses that operate across a wide range of industries, as well as syndicated senior secured loans, structured products, bonds and other fixed income securities. Structured products include collateralized loan obligations and asset-backed securities. The Adviser’s existing SEC co-investment exemptive relief under the 1940 Act permits the Company and the Adviser’s affiliated private funds and SEC regulated funds to co-invest in loans originated by the Adviser, which allows the Adviser to efficiently implement its senior secured private debt investment strategy for the Company.
The cost basis of the Company’s debt investments includes any unamortized purchased premium or discount, unamortized loan origination fees and PIK interest, if any.

As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company did not have any unsettled receivables due from Banff. The sale of the investments met the criteria set forth in ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, for treatment as a sale and satisfies the following conditions:
•assigned investments have been isolated from the Company, and put presumptively beyond the reach of the Company and its creditors, even in bankruptcy or other receivership;
•each participant has the right to pledge or exchange the assigned investments it received, and no condition both constrains the participant from taking advantage of its right to pledge or exchange and provides more than a trivial benefit to the Company; and
•the Company, its consolidated affiliates or its agents do not maintain effective control over the assigned investments through either: (i) an agreement that entitles and/or obligates the Company to repurchase or redeem the assets before maturity, or (ii) the ability to unilaterally cause the holder to return specific assets, other than through a cleanup call.
The Company has determined that Banff is an investment company under ASC Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies, however, in accordance with such guidance, the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than a substantially wholly owned investment company subsidiary, which is an extension of the operations of the Company, or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. The Company does not consolidate its interest in Banff as it is not a substantially wholly owned investment company subsidiary. In addition, Banff is not an operating company and the Company does not control Banff due to the allocation of voting rights among Banff members.

Rocade Holdings LLC
On February 1, 2023, the Company made an equity investment in Rocade Holdings LLC (“Rocade”) of $45.0 million, alongside other related party affiliates and made additional investments thereafter during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 of $5.5 million. The total equity invested in Rocade as of March 31, 2024 was $50.5 million (excluding preferred dividends) and the Company had $4.5 million of unfunded preferred equity commitments. Rocade conducts its business through Rocade LLC and operates as Rocade Capital. Rocade is one of the country’s leading litigation finance platforms that specializes in providing financing to plaintiff law firms engaged in mass tort and other civil litigation. Rocade typically provides loans to law firms that are secured by the borrowing firm’s interests in award settlements, including contingency fees expected to be earned from successful litigation. The loans generally bear floating rate PIK interest with an overall expected annualized return between 10% and 25% and collect debt service upon receipt of settlement awards and/or contingency fees. The addition of Rocade to the portfolio allows the Company to participate in an uncorrelated asset class that offer differentiated income returns as compared to directly originated loans. Rocade is led by a seasoned team of litigation finance experts.
The Company has determined that Rocade is not an investment company under ASC Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies. Under ASC 810-10-15-12(d), an investment company generally does not consolidate an investee that is not an investment company other than a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the company. Thus, the Company is not required to consolidate Rocade because it does not provide services to the Company. Instead the Company accounts for its equity investment in Rocade in accordance with ASC 946-320, presented as a single investment measured at fair value.
Valuation of Investments
The Adviser conducts the valuation of the Company’s investments, upon which the Company’s net asset value (“NAV”) is primarily based, in accordance with its valuation policy, as well as established and documented processes and methodologies for determining the fair values of portfolio company investments on a recurring (at least quarterly) basis in accordance with the 1940 Act and FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). The Company’s current valuation policy and processes were established by the Adviser and were approved by the Board.
Under ASC Topic 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller at the measurement date. For the Company’s portfolio securities, fair value is generally the amount that the Company might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale of the security. The fair value measurement assumes that the sale occurs in the principal market for the security, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the security. If no market for the security exists or if the Company does not have access to the principal market, the security should be valued based on the sale occurring in a hypothetical market.
Under ASC Topic 820, there are three levels of valuation inputs, as follows:
Level 1 Inputs – include quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs – include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 Inputs – include inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
A financial instrument is categorized within the ASC Topic 820 valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input to the valuation process that is significant to the fair value measurement. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Therefore, unrealized appreciation and depreciation related to such investments categorized as Level 3 investments within the tables below may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3).
The Company’s investment portfolio includes certain debt and equity instruments of privately held companies for which quoted prices or other observable inputs falling within the categories of Level 1 and Level 2 are generally not available. In such cases, the Adviser determines the fair value of the Company’s investments in good faith primarily using Level 3 inputs. In certain cases, quoted prices or other observable inputs exist, and if so, the Adviser assesses the appropriateness of the use of these third-party quotes in determining fair value based on (i) its understanding of the level of actual transactions used by the broker to develop the quote and whether the quote was an indicative price or binding offer and (ii) the depth and consistency of broker quotes and the correlation of changes in broker quotes with the underlying performance of the portfolio company.
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
There is no single approach for determining fair value in good faith, as fair value depends upon the specific circumstances of each individual investment. The recorded fair values of the Company’s Level 3 investments may differ significantly from fair values that would have been used had an active market for the securities existed. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.
Investment Valuation Process
The Board must determine fair value in good faith for any or all Company investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Board has designated the Adviser as valuation designee to perform the fair value determinations relating to the value of the assets held by the Company for which market quotations are not readily available. The Adviser has established a pricing committee that is, subject to the oversight of the Board, responsible for the approval, implementation and oversight of the processes and methodologies that relate to the pricing and valuation of assets held by the Company. The Adviser uses independent third-party providers to price the portfolio, but in the event an acceptable price cannot be obtained from an approved external source, the Adviser will utilize alternative methods in accordance with internal pricing procedures established by the Adviser’s pricing committee.
At least annually, the Adviser conducts reviews of the primary pricing vendors to validate that the inputs used in the vendors’ pricing process are deemed to be market observable. While the Adviser is not provided access to proprietary models of the vendors, the reviews have included on-site walkthroughs of the pricing process, methodologies and control procedures for each asset class and level for which prices are provided. The review also includes an examination of the underlying inputs and assumptions for a sample of individual securities across asset classes, credit rating levels and various durations, a process the Adviser continues to perform annually. In addition, the pricing vendors have an established challenge process in place for all security valuations, which facilitates identification and resolution of prices that fall outside expected ranges. The Adviser believes that the prices received from the pricing vendors are representative of prices that would be received to sell the assets at the measurement date (i.e., exit prices).
The Company’s money market fund investments are generally valued using Level 1 inputs and its equity investments listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued using Level 1 inputs, using the last quoted sale price of that day. The Company’s syndicated senior secured loans and structured product investments are generally valued using Level 2 inputs, which are generally valued at the bid quotation obtained from dealers in loans by an independent pricing service. The Company’s middle-market, private debt and equity investments are generally valued using Level 3 inputs.
Independent Valuation
The fair value of loans and equity investments that are not syndicated or for which market quotations are not readily available, including middle-market loans, are generally submitted to independent providers to perform an independent valuation on those loans and equity investments as of the end of each quarter. Such loans and equity investments are initially held at cost, as that is a reasonable approximation of fair value on the acquisition date, and monitored for material changes that could affect the valuation (for example, changes in interest rates or the credit quality of the borrower). At the quarter end following that of the initial acquisition, such loans and equity investments are generally sent to a valuation provider which will determine the fair value of each investment. The independent valuation providers apply various methods (synthetic rating analysis, discounting cash flows, and re-underwriting analysis) to establish the rate of return a market participant would require (the “discount rate”) as of the valuation date, given market conditions, prevailing lending standards and the perceived credit quality of the issuer. Future expected cash flows for each investment are discounted back to present value using these discount rates in the discounted cash flow analysis. A range of values will be provided by the valuation provider and the Adviser will determine the point within that range that it will use. If the Adviser’s pricing committee disagrees with the price range provided, it may make a fair value recommendation to the Adviser that is outside of the range provided by the independent valuation provider and the reasons therefore. In certain instances, the Company may determine that it is not cost-effective, and as a result is not in the stockholders’ best interests, to request an independent valuation firm to perform an independent valuation on certain investments. Such instances include, but are not limited to, situations where the fair value of the investment in the portfolio company is determined to be insignificant relative to the total investment portfolio.
Valuation Inputs
The Adviser’s valuation techniques are based upon both observable and unobservable pricing inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Adviser’s market assumptions. The Adviser’s 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. An independent pricing service provider is the preferred source of pricing a loan, however, to the extent the independent pricing service provider price is unavailable or not relevant and reliable,
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
the Adviser will utilize alternative approaches such as broker quotes or manual prices. The Adviser attempts to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the security.
Valuation of Investments in Banff, Thompson Rivers and Waccamaw River
As Banff, Thompson Rivers and Waccamaw River are investment companies with no readily determinable fair values, the Adviser estimates the fair value of the Company’s investments in these entities using the NAV of each company and the Company’s ownership percentage as a practical expedient. The NAV is determined in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment companies.
Level 3 Unobservable Inputs
The following tables summarize the significant unobservable inputs the Adviser used in the valuation of the Company’s Level 3 debt and equity securities as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023. The weighted average range of unobservable inputs is based on fair value of investments.

Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company made investments of approximately $31.0 million in portfolio companies to which it was not previously contractually committed to provide such financing. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company made investments of $20.3 million in portfolio companies to which it was previously committed to provide such financing.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made investments of approximately $91.6 million in portfolio companies to which it was not previously contractually committed to provide such financing. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company made investments of $9.8 million in portfolio companies to which it was previously committed to provide such financing.
Unsettled Purchases and Sales of Investments
Investment transactions are recorded based on the trade date of the transaction. As a result, unsettled purchases and sales are recorded as payables and receivables from unsettled transactions, respectively. While purchase and sales of the Company’s syndicated senior secured loans generally settle on a T+7 basis, the settlement period will sometimes extend past the scheduled settlement. In such cases, the Company is contractually owed and recognizes interest income equal to the applicable margin (“spread”) beginning on the T+7 date. Such income is accrued as interest receivable and is collected upon settlement of the investment transaction.
Realized Gain or Loss and Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation of Portfolio Investments
Realized gains or losses are recorded upon the sale or liquidation of investments and are calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from the sale or liquidation, if any, and the cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the difference between the fair value of the investments and the cost basis of the investments.
Investment Classification
In accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, the Company classifies investments by level of control. As defined in the 1940 Act, “Control Investments” are investments in those companies that the Company is deemed to “Control.” “Affiliate Investments” are investments in those companies that are “Affiliated Persons” of the Company, as defined in the 1940 Act, other than Control Investments. “Non-Control / Non-Affiliate Investments” are those that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Generally, under the 1940 Act, the Company is deemed to control a company in which it has invested if the Company owns more than 25.0% of the voting securities (i.e., securities with the right to elect directors) and/or has the power to exercise control over the management or policies of such portfolio company. As of March 31, 2024, the Company does not “Control” any of its portfolio companies for the purposes of the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, the Company is deemed to be an Affiliated Person of a company in which the Company has invested if it owns at least 5.0%, but no more than 25.0%, of the outstanding voting securities of such company.
Cash and Foreign Currencies
Cash consists of deposits held at a custodian bank. Cash is carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company places its cash with financial institutions and, at times, cash may exceed insured limits under applicable law.
Investment Income
Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. 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-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 a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company writes off any previously accrued and uncollected interest when it is determined that interest is no longer considered collectible. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had three portfolio companies and one portfolio company, respectively, with investments that were on non-accrual.
Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
Payment-in-Kind Interest
The Company currently holds, and expects to hold in the future, some loans in its portfolio that contain PIK interest provisions. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each loan agreement, is periodically added to the principal balance of the loan, rather than being paid to the Company in cash, and is recorded as interest income. Thus, the actual collection of PIK interest may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment.
PIK interest, which is a non-cash source of income at the time of recognition, is included in the Company’s taxable income and therefore affects the amount the Company is required to distribute to its stockholders to maintain its tax treatment as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash. Generally, when current cash 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-accrual status and will generally cease recognizing PIK interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The Company writes off any accrued and uncollected PIK interest when it is determined that the PIK interest is no longer collectible.
Fee Income
Origination, facility, commitment, consent and other advance fees received in connection with loan agreements (“Loan Origination Fees”) are recorded as deferred income and recognized as investment income over the term of the loan. Upon prepayment of a loan, any unamortized Loan Origination Fees are recorded as investment income. In the general course of its business, the Company receives certain fees from portfolio companies, which are non-recurring in nature. Such fees include loan prepayment penalties, structuring fees, covenant waiver fees and loan amendment fees, and are recorded as investment income when earned.
Fee income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:

General and Administrative Expenses
Other general and administrative expenses include bank service fees and expenses reimbursable to the Adviser under the terms of the Administration Agreement and other costs related to operating the Company.
Deferred Financing Fees
Costs incurred to issue debt are capitalized and are amortized over the term of the debt agreements using the effective interest method.
Segments
The Company lends to and invests in customers in various industries. The Company separately evaluates the performance of each of its lending and investment relationships. However, because each of these loan and investment relationships has
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
similar business and economic characteristics, they have been aggregated into a single lending and investment segment. All applicable segment disclosures are included in or can be derived from the Company’s financial statements.
Concentration of Credit Risk
As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were no individual investments representing greater than 10% of the fair value of the Company’s portfolio. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company’s largest single portfolio company investment represented approximately 5.6% and 5.7%, respectively, of the fair value of the Company’s portfolio. Income, consisting of interest, dividends, fees, other investment income and realization of gains or losses on equity interests, can fluctuate dramatically upon repayment of an investment or sale of an equity interest and in any given year can be highly concentrated among several portfolio companies.
As of March 31, 2024, all of the Company’s assets were or will be pledged as collateral for the ING Credit Facility.
Investments Denominated in Foreign Currency
As of March 31, 2024 the Company held 12 investments that were denominated in Australian dollars, two investments that were denominated in Canadian dollars, one investment that was denominated in Danish kroner, two investments that were denominated in New Zealand dollars, one investment that was denominated in Norwegian kroner, 60 investments that were denominated in Euros, two investments that were denominated in Swiss francs, one investment that was denominated in Swedish kronor and 23 investments that were denominated in British pounds sterling. As of December 31, 2023, the Company held 12 investments that were denominated in Australian dollars, two investments that were denominated in Canadian dollars, one investment that was denominated in Danish kroner, two investments that were denominated in New Zealand dollars, one investment that was denominated in Norwegian kroner, 58 investments that were denominated in Euros, two investments that were denominated in Swiss francs, one investment that was denominated Swedish kronor and 23 investments that were denominated in British pounds sterling.
At each balance sheet date, portfolio company investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated into United States dollars using the spot exchange rate on the last business day of the period. Purchases and sales of foreign portfolio company investments, and any income from such investments, are translated into United States dollars using the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the fair values of foreign portfolio company investments and the fluctuation in such fair values are translated into United States dollars using the applicable foreign exchange rates described above, the Company does not separately report that portion of the change in fair values resulting from foreign currency exchange rates fluctuations from the change in fair values of the underlying investment. All fluctuations in fair value are included in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.
In addition, during both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023, the Company entered into forward currency contracts primarily to help mitigate the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. Net unrealized appreciation or depreciation on foreign currency contracts are included in “Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) - forward currency contracts” and net realized gains or losses on forward currency contracts are included in “Net realized gains (losses) - forward currency contracts” in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Investments denominated in foreign currencies and foreign currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. Dollar.
4. INCOME TAXES
The Company has elected for federal income tax purposes to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code and intends to make the required distributions to its stockholders as specified therein. In order to maintain its tax treatment as a RIC, the Company must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then the Company is generally required to pay taxes only on the portion of its taxable income and gains it does not distribute (actually or constructively). The Company has historically met its minimum distribution requirements and continually monitors its distribution requirements with the goal of ensuring compliance with the Code.
Depending on the level of investment company taxable income (“ICTI”) and net capital gains, if any, or taxable income, the Company may choose to carry forward undistributed taxable income and pay a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
certain undistributed income unless the Company distributes, in a timely manner, an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of net ordinary income for each calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of the amount by which capital gains exceed capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year (or later if the Company is permitted to elect and so elects) and (iii) certain undistributed amounts from previous years on which the Company paid no U.S. federal income tax. Any such carryover of taxable income must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing of the tax return related to the year which generated such taxable income not to be subject to U.S. federal income tax. For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recorded net expenses of $0.2 million and $23.5 thousand, respectively, for U.S. federal excise tax.
Tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns are evaluated to determine whether the tax positions are more-likely-than-not of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions taken, or to be taken, on federal income tax returns for all open tax years (fiscal years 2020-2022), and has concluded that the provision for uncertain tax positions in the Company’s financial statements is appropriate.
Taxable income generally differs from increase in net assets resulting from operations due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses, and generally excludes net unrealized gains or losses, as unrealized gains or losses are generally not included in taxable income until they are realized. The Company makes certain adjustments to the classification of net assets as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences, which include differences in the book and tax basis of certain assets and liabilities, and nondeductible federal taxes or losses among other items. To the extent these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to additional paid in capital, or total distributable earnings (loss), as appropriate.
For federal income tax purposes, the cost of investments owned as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 was approximately $1,352.6 million and $1,344.7 million, respectively. As of March 31, 2024, net unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments (tax basis) was approximately $22.0 million, consisting of gross unrealized appreciation, where the fair value of the Company’s investments exceeds their tax cost, of approximately $71.2 million and gross unrealized depreciation, where the tax cost of the Company’s investments exceeds their fair value, of approximately $49.2 million. As of December 31, 2023, net unrealized appreciation on the Company’s investments (tax basis) was approximately $2.6 million, consisting of gross unrealized appreciation, where the fair value of the Company’s investments exceeds their tax cost, of approximately $63.2 million and gross unrealized depreciation, where the tax cost of the Company’s investments exceeds their fair value, of approximately $60.6 million.
In addition, the Company has a wholly-owned taxable subsidiary (the “Taxable Subsidiary”), which holds certain portfolio investments that are listed on the Unaudited and Audited Consolidated Schedules of Investments. The Taxable Subsidiary is consolidated for financial reporting purposes, such that the Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect the Company’s investments in the portfolio companies owned by the Taxable Subsidiary. The purpose of the Taxable Subsidiary is to permit the Company to hold certain portfolio companies that are organized as limited liability companies (“LLCs”) (or other forms of pass-through entities) and still satisfy the RIC tax requirement that at least 90% of the RIC’s gross revenue for income tax purposes must consist of qualifying investment income. Absent the Taxable Subsidiary, a proportionate amount of any gross income of an LLC (or other pass-through entity) portfolio investment would flow through directly to the RIC. To the extent that such income did not consist of qualifying investment income, it could jeopardize the Company’s ability to qualify as a RIC and therefore cause the Company to incur significant amounts of federal income taxes. When LLCs (or other pass-through entities) are owned by the Taxable Subsidiary, their income is taxed to the Taxable Subsidiary and does not flow through to the RIC, thereby helping the Company preserve its RIC tax treatment and resultant tax advantages. The Taxable Subsidiary is not consolidated for income tax purposes and may generate income tax expense or benefit as a result of its ownership of the portfolio companies. This income tax expense or benefit, if any, is reflected in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, any unrealized appreciation related to portfolio investments held by the Taxable Subsidiary (net of unrealized depreciation related to portfolio investments held by the Taxable Subsidiary), is reflected net of applicable federal and state income taxes, if any, in the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations, with the related deferred tax assets or liabilities, if any, included in “Accounts payable and accrued liabilities” in the Company’s Unaudited and Audited Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company recorded a net deferred tax liability of $0.7 million and $0.8 million, respectively, pertaining to operating losses and tax basis differences related to certain partnership interests.

The Company is required to meet an asset coverage ratio, defined under the 1940 Act as the ratio of the Company’s total assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) to its outstanding senior securities, of at least 150% after each issuance of senior securities. The Company’s asset coverage ratio was 189.8% as of March 31, 2024.
ING Capital Credit Facility
On January 15, 2021, the Company entered into the ING Credit Facility with ING Capital LLC (“ING”), as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The initial commitments under the ING Credit Facility totaled $65.0 million.
On April 30, 2021, the Company amended and restated the credit agreement governing the ING Credit Facility to increase the total commitments under the facility to $325.0 million and include a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. On July 22, 2021, the Company entered into an incremental commitment and assumption agreement to increase the aggregate commitments under the ING Credit Facility to $500.0 million. As amended as of March 31, 2022, the Company had aggregate commitments from lenders of $500.0 million under the ING Credit Facility, the maximum commitment then allowed under the ING Credit Facility. On April 25, 2022, the Company amended the ING Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) increase total commitments from lenders to $625.0 million from $500.0 million, (ii) upsize the accordion feature under the ING Credit Facility to allow for an increase in aggregate commitments thereunder from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments up to a total of $800.0 million, subject to certain conditions and the satisfaction of specified financial covenants, and (iii) replace the LIBOR benchmark provisions under the ING Credit Facility with SOFR benchmark provisions. On October 13, 2022, the Company amended the ING Credit Facility to increase total commitments from lenders to $710.0 million from $625.0 million.
The Company can borrow foreign currencies directly under the ING Credit Facility. The ING Credit Facility is secured primarily by a material portion of the Company’s present and future property and assets and is guaranteed by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries. The revolving period under the ING Credit Facility terminates on April 30, 2025, and the final maturity date of the ING Credit Facility is scheduled for April 30, 2026.
Borrowings under the ING Credit Facility bear interest on a per annum basis equal to (i) for borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars, subject to the Company’s election, (a) the alternate base rate plus 1.15% or (b) the term SOFR plus 2.15% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% for borrowings with an interest period of one month, 0.15% for borrowings with and interest period of three months or 0.25% for borrowings with an interest period of six months, with the term SOFR plus credit spread adjustment subject to a 0.00% floor, (ii) for borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, Swiss Francs, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Danish Kroner, Norwegian Kroner or Swedish Kronor, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.15%, (iii) for borrowings denominated in Australian Dollars, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.35%, or (iv) for borrowings denominated in New Zealand Dollars, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.45%. The alternate base rate is equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50%, (iv) one-month term SOFR plus 1.00% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% and (v) 1.00%. The adjusted eurocurrency rate is equal to the eurocurrency rate for the applicable interest period plus any applicable statutory reserve rate for such interest period, subject to a 0.00% floor. The Company pays a commitment fee on undrawn amounts under the ING Credit Facility.
The ING Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including but not limited to (i) maintaining minimum stockholders’ equity, (ii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of (a) 150% at any time that more than 70% of the total fair value of the Company’s portfolio comprises cash, cash equivalents, long-term U.S. government securities or first lien loans to portfolio companies, or (b) 167% or 200% at specified concentrations of such assets at amounts less than or equal
Barings Capital Investment Corporation
Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements — (Continued)
to 70% of the total fair value of the Company’s portfolio, (iii) meeting a minimum liquidity test, (iv) meeting a minimum net worth test, and (v) maintaining the Company’s status as a RIC under the Code and as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The ING Credit Facility also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice provisions, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, certain change of control events, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. The ING Credit Facility also permits the administrative agent to select an independent third-party valuation firm to determine valuations of certain portfolio investments for purposes of borrowing base provisions. ING and other lenders under the ING Credit Facility, and their respective affiliates, may from time to time receive customary fees and expenses in the performance of investment banking, financial advisory or other services for the Company. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants of the ING Credit Facility.
The Company, one of its subsidiaries, BCIC Holdings, Inc., ING, as administrative agent, the financing agents and designated indebtedness holders that become parties thereto and ING, as collateral agent, also entered into a guarantee, pledge and security agreement, dated as of January 15, 2021, pursuant to which the Company’s obligations under the ING Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest (subject to certain exceptions) in substantially all of the Company’s and its subsidiary guarantors’ present and future property and assets.
As of March 31, 2024, the Company had U.S. dollar borrowings of $533.0 million under the ING Credit Facility with an interest rate of 7.569% (with Term SOFR borrowings subject to one month SOFR of 5.319%), borrowings denominated in British pounds sterling of £31.2 million ($39.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 7.371% (one month SONIA of 5.221%), borrowings denominated in Euros of €61.5 million ($66.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.088% (one month EURIBOR of 3.938%) and borrowings denominated in Australian Dollars of A$5.5 million ($3.6 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.650% (one month AUD Screen Rate of 4.300%).

February 2027 Notes
On February 22, 2022, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “February 2022 NPA”) governing the issuance of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due February 22, 2027 (the “February 2027 Notes”), in each case, to qualified institutional investors in a private placement. The February 2027 Notes were delivered and paid for on February 22, 2022.
The February 2027 Notes, for which the Company was required to obtain an initial rating by June 30, 2022, have a fixed interest rate of 4.75% per year, subject to a step up of 0.75% per year, to the extent the February 2027 Notes fail to satisfy certain investment grade rating conditions.
The February 2027 Notes will mature on February 22, 2027 unless redeemed, purchased or prepaid prior to such date by the Company in accordance with the terms of the February 2022 NPA. Interest on the February 2027 Notes will be due semiannually in February and August of each year, beginning in August 2022. In addition, the Company is obligated to offer to repay the February 2027 Notes at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of prepayment) if certain change in control events occur. Subject to the terms of the February 2022 NPA, the Company may redeem the February 2027 Notes in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at the Company’s option at par plus accrued interest to the prepayment date and, if redeemed on or before August 22, 2026, a make-whole premium.

The February 2022 NPA contains certain representations and warranties, and various covenants and reporting requirements customary for agreements of this type, including, without limitation, information reporting, maintenance of the Company’s status as a BDC within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and certain restrictions with respect to transactions with affiliates, fundamental changes, changes of line of business, liens, restricted payments, and investments. In addition, the February 2022 NPA contains the following financial covenants: (a) maintaining a minimum obligors’ net worth, measured as of each fiscal quarter-end; (b) not permitting the Company’s asset coverage ratio, as of the date of the incurrence of any debt for borrowed money or the making of any cash dividend to stockholders, to be less than the statutory minimum then applicable to the Company under the 1940 Act; and (c) not permitting the Company’s net debt to equity ratio to exceed 2.0x, measured as of each fiscal quarter-end.
The February 2022 NPA also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice periods, including, without limitation, nonpayment, incorrect representation in any material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default under other indebtedness or that of the Company’s subsidiary guarantors, if any, certain judgements and orders, and certain events of bankruptcy. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the holders of at least 66-2/3% in principal amount of the February 2027 Notes at the time outstanding may declare all February 2027 Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.
The Company’s obligations under the February 2022 NPA are general unsecured obligations that rank pari passu with all outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by the Company. As of March 31, 2024, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under the February 2022 NPA.
The February 2027 Notes were offered in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The February 2027 Notes have not and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, as applicable.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the fair values of the February 2027 Notes were $92.1 million and $90.2 million, respectively. The fair value determinations of the February 2027 Notes were based on a market yield approach and current interest rates, which are Level 3 inputs to the market yield model.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $568.7 million in total capital commitments from investors of which $5.0 million was from C.M. Life Insurance Company, an affiliate of MassMutual and the Adviser, and $95.0 million was from MassMutual. As of both March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, all commitments have been funded.
In the normal course of business, the Company is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, consisting primarily of unused commitments to extend financing to the Company’s portfolio companies. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. As of March 31, 2024, the Company believed that it had adequate financial resources to satisfy its unfunded commitments. The balances of unused commitments to extend financing as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion is designed to provide a better understanding of our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for the three months ended March 31, 2024, including a brief discussion of our business, key factors that impacted our performance and a summary of our operating results. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. Historical results and percentage relationships among any amounts in the financial statements are not necessarily indicative of trends in operating results for any future periods.
Forward-Looking Statements
Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report constitute forward-looking statements because they relate to future events or our future performance or financial condition. Forward-looking statements may include, among other things, statements as to our future operating results, our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies, the impact of the investments that we expect to make, the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives, our expected financings and investments, the adequacy of our cash resources and working capital, and the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our portfolio companies. Words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “target,” “goals,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “estimate,” “continue,” “forecast,” “may,” “should,” “potential,” variations of such words, and similar expressions indicate a forward-looking statement, although not all forward-looking statements include these words. Readers are cautioned that the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report are only predictions, are not guarantees of future performance, and are subject to risks, events, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict. Our actual results could differ materially from those implied or expressed in the forward-looking statements for any reason, including the items discussed herein, in Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in Item 1A titled “Risk Factors” in Part II of our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or in other reports that we may file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) from time to time. Other factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially include, but are not limited to, changes in political, economic or industry conditions, including the risks of a slowing economy, rising inflation and risk of recession, and volatility in the financial services sector, including bank failures; the interest rate environment or conditions affecting the financial and capital markets; the impact of global health crises, on our or our portfolio companies’ business and the U.S. and global economies; our, or our portfolio companies’, future business, operations, operating results or prospects; risks associated with possible disruption due to terrorism in our operations or the economy generally; and future changes in laws or regulations and conditions in our or our portfolio companies’ operating areas. These statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, forecasts, information and projections about the industry in which we operate and the beliefs and assumptions of our management as of the date of filing of this Quarterly Report. We assume no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, unless we are required to do so by law. Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we may make directly to you or through reports that we in the future may file with the SEC, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K.
Overview of Our Business
We were formed on February 20, 2020 as a Maryland limited liability company and converted to a Maryland corporation on April 28, 2020. On July 13, 2020, we commenced operations and made our first portfolio company investment. We are externally managed by Barings LLC (“Barings” or the “Adviser”), an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”). An externally-managed business development company (“BDC”) generally does not have any employees, and its investment and management functions are provided by an outside investment adviser and administrator under an investment advisory agreement and an administration agreement. Instead of directly compensating employees, we pay Barings for investment and management services pursuant to the terms of an investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) and an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”).
Our primary investment objective is to provide consistently attractive returns. Barings employs fundamental credit analysis, and targets investments in businesses with relatively low levels of cyclicality (i.e., the risk of business cycles or other economic cycles adversely affecting them) and operating risk. The hold size of each position will generally be dependent upon a number of factors including total facility size, pricing and structure, and the number of other lenders in the facility. Barings
has experience managing levered vehicles, both public and private, and seeks to enhance our returns through the use of leverage with a prudent approach that prioritizes capital preservation. Barings believes this strategy and approach offers attractive
risk/return with lower volatility given the potential for fewer defaults and greater resilience through market cycles. A significant portion of our investments are expected to be rated below investment grade by rating agencies or, if unrated would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. Below investment grade securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
We focus on investing primarily in senior secured private debt instruments in well-established middle-market businesses that operate across a wide range of industries. To a lesser extent, we will invest in equity, special situations, structured credit (e.g., private asset-backed securities), syndicated loan opportunities, high-yield investments and/or mortgage securities. Syndicated senior secured loans are either (i) marketed by investment banks, which are mandated to bring lenders together and underwrite the deal, to institutional investors or (ii) bought and sold by institutional investors in individually negotiated private transactions that function in many respects like an over-the-counter secondary market. On the other hand, senior secured private debt investments are negotiated directly with the borrower, rather than marketed by a third party or bought and sold in the secondary market. We believe senior secured private debt investments may offer higher returns and certain more favorable protections than syndicated senior secured loans. Fees generated in connection with our debt investments are recognized over the life of the loan using the effective interest method or, in some cases, recognized as earned. We currently intend to invest primarily in senior secured private debt investments that have terms of between five and seven years and bear interest between the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) (or the applicable currency rate for investments in foreign currencies) plus 475 basis points and SOFR plus 675 basis points per annum.
As of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the weighted average yield on the principal amount of our outstanding debt investments other than non-accrual debt investments was approximately 11.0% and 10.9%, respectively. The weighted average yield on the principal amount of all of our outstanding debt investments (including non-accrual debt investments) was approximately 11.0% and 10.7% as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Relationship with Our Adviser, Barings
Our Adviser, Barings, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company (“MassMutual”), is a leading global asset management firm and is registered with the SEC as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act. Barings’ primary investment capabilities include fixed income, private credit, real estate, equity, and alternative investments. Subject to the overall supervision of our board of directors (the “Board”), Barings’ Global Private Finance Group (“Barings GPFG”) manages our day-to-day operations, and provides investment advisory and management services to us. Barings GPFG is part of Barings’ $324.0 billion Global Fixed Income Platform (as of March 31, 2024) that invests in liquid, private and structured credit. Barings GPFG also advises private funds and separately managed accounts, along with multiple public vehicles. The Adviser has retained its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Baring International Investment Limited (“BIIL”), as a sub-adviser to manage European investments for us. BIIL is an investment adviser registered with the SEC in the United States and the Financial Conduct Authority in the United Kingdom with its principal office located in London, England. As of March 31, 2024, BIIL had approximately £17.0 billion in assets under management.
Among other things, Barings (i) determines the composition of our portfolio, the nature and timing of the changes therein and the manner of implementing such changes; (ii) identifies, evaluates and negotiates the structure of the investments made by us; (iii) executes, closes, services and monitors the investments that we make; (iv) determines the securities and other assets that we will purchase, retain or sell; (v) performs due diligence on prospective portfolio companies and (vi) provides us with such other investment advisory, research and related services as we may, from time to time, reasonably require for the investment of our funds.
Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, Barings (in its capacity as our Administrator) performs (or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of) the administrative services necessary for our operation, including, but not limited to, office facilities, equipment, clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such office facilities and such other services as Barings, subject to review by the Board, will from time to time determine to be necessary or useful to perform its obligations under the Administration Agreement. Barings also, on our behalf and subject to the Board’s oversight, arranges for the services of, and oversees, custodians, depositories, transfer agents, dividend disbursing agents, other stockholder servicing agents, accountants, attorneys, underwriters, brokers and dealers, corporate fiduciaries, insurers, banks and such other persons in any such other capacity deemed to be necessary or desirable. Barings is responsible for the financial and other records that we are required to maintain and will prepare all reports and other materials required to be filed with the SEC or any other regulatory authority.
Included in Barings GPFG is Barings North American Private Finance Team (the “U.S. Investment Team”), which consists of 43 investment professionals (as of March 31, 2024) located in three offices in the United States. The U.S. Investment Team provides a full set of solutions to the North American middle market, including first and second lien senior secured loans, unitranche structures, revolvers, mezzanine debt and equity co-investments. The U.S. Investment Team averages approximately 20 years of industry experience at the Managing Director and Director level. Also included in Barings GPFG are
its Europe and Asia-Pacific Investment Committees and Private Finance Teams, which are responsible for our investment origination and portfolio monitoring activities for middle-market companies in Europe and Asia-Pacific geographies. In addition, Barings believes that it has best-in-class support personnel, including expertise in risk management, legal, accounting, tax, information technology and compliance, among others. We expect to benefit from the support provided by these personnel in our operations.
Portfolio Composition
The total value of our investment portfolio was $1,363.0 million as of March 31, 2024, as compared to $1,349.1 million as of December 31, 2023.

Non-Accrual Assets
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 a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. As of March 31, 2024, we had three portfolio companies with investments on non-accrual, the aggregate fair value of which was $2.7 million, which comprised 0.2% of the total fair value our portfolio, and the aggregate cost of which was $5.0 million, which comprised 0.4% of the total cost of our portfolio. As of December 31, 2023, we had one portfolio company with investments on non-accrual, the fair value of which was $13.5 million, which comprised 1.0% of the total fair value of our portfolio, and the cost of which was $17.4 million, which comprised 1.3% of the total cost of our portfolio.

The change in total investment income for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, was primarily due to an increase in the weighted average yield on the portfolio from higher base rates and increased dividends from portfolio companies. The weighted average yield on the principal amount of our outstanding debt investments, other than non-accrual debt investments, was 11.0% as of March 31, 2024, as compared to 10.3% as of March 31, 2023. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, dividends from portfolio companies were $4.0 million, as compared to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Interest and Other Financing Fees
Interest and other financing fees during both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were attributable to borrowings under the February 2027 Notes and the ING Credit Facility (each as defined below under “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources”). The increase in interest and other financing fees for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, was primarily attributable to an increase in the weighted average interest rate on the ING Credit Facility. The weighted average interest rate on the ING Credit Facility was 7.4% as of March 31, 2024, as compared to 6.7% as of March 31, 2023.
Base Management Fee
Under the Advisory Agreement, we pay Barings a base management fee (the “Base Management Fee”), quarterly in arrears on a calendar quarter basis. The Base Management Fee is calculated based on the average value of our gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters (including the quarter for which such fees are being calculated) and appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter. The Base Management Fee for any partial quarter is appropriately pro-rated. See “Note 2. Agreement and Related Party Transactions” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Advisory Agreement and the fee arrangement thereunder. For both the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the amount of Base Management Fees incurred was $0.5 million.
Incentive Fee
Under the Advisory Agreement, we pay Barings an incentive fee (the “Incentive Fee”). The Incentive Fee consists of two parts: (i) an incentive fee based on pre-incentive fee net investment income (the “Income-Based Fee”) and (ii) an incentive fee based on the net capital gains received on our portfolio of securities on a cumulative basis through the end of each calendar year, net of all realized capital losses and all unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid Incentive Fee on capital gains (the “Capital Gains Fee”). The Income-Based Fee is subject to a floating “hurdle rate” based on SOFR, a “catch-up” feature and a cap. See “Note 2. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the Advisory Agreement and the fee arrangements thereunder. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the amount of Income-Based Fees incurred was $2.8 million, as compared to $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The increase in the Income-Based Fees for the three months ended March 31, 2024, as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2023, relates predominately to an increase in pre-incentive fee net investment income. The amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income was $22.4 million as of March 31, 2024, as compared to $21.6 million as of March 31, 2023.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we accrued $0.4 million for the Capital Gains Fee, as compared to nil for the three months ended March 31, 2023. As required by U.S. GAAP, we accrue the Capital Gains Fee on unrealized gains. This accrual reflects the Incentive Fees that would be payable to the Adviser if our entire investment portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Adviser is not entitled to an Incentive Fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.
Professional Fees
Professional fees generally include legal and accounting expenses.
Other General and Administrative Expenses
We have entered into the Administration Agreement with Barings. Under the terms of the Administration Agreement, Barings performs (or oversees, or arranges for, the performance of) the administrative services necessary for our operations. We reimburse Barings for the costs and expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the Administration Agreement in an amount negotiated and mutually agreed to by us and Barings quarterly in arrears; provided that the agreed-upon quarterly expense amount will not exceed the amount of expenses that would otherwise be reimbursable by us under the Administration Agreement for the applicable quarterly period, and Barings will not be entitled to the recoupment of any amounts in excess of the agreed-upon quarterly expense amount. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the amount of administration expense incurred and invoiced by Barings for expenses was approximately $0.2 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, the amount of administration expense incurred and invoiced by Barings for expenses was approximately $0.3 million. In addition to expenses incurred under the Administration Agreement, other general and administrative expenses include directors’ and officers’ insurance costs and other costs related to our operations.

During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we recognized net realized losses totaling $10.5 million, which consisted primarily of a net loss on our forward currency contracts of $6.5 million, a net loss on our loan portfolio of $3.9 million and a net loss on foreign currency transactions of $0.1 million. The net loss on our investment portfolio predominately related to the restructuring of one investment which was primarily reclassified from unrealized depreciation during the three months ended March 31, 2024.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized net realized losses totaling $9.9 million, which consisted primarily of a net loss on forward currency contracts of $10.2 million and a net loss on our loan portfolio of $0.2 million, partially offset by a net gain on foreign currency transactions of $0.5 million.

The net unrealized appreciation on our current portfolio of $1.2 million was driven primarily by broad market moves for investments of $7.3 million and the credit or fundamental performance of investments of $45.7 thousand, partially offset by the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on investments of $6.1 million.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded net unrealized appreciation totaling $16.6 million, consisting of net unrealized appreciation on our current portfolio of $9.3 million, net unrealized appreciation related to forward currency contracts of $9.6 million and net unrealized appreciation reclassification adjustments of $0.4 million related to realized gains and losses recognized during the year, partially offset by net unrealized depreciation related to foreign currency transactions of $2.6 million and deferred taxes of $0.1 million. The net unrealized appreciation on our current portfolio of $9.3 million was driven primarily by the credit or fundamental performance of investments of $4.9 million, the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on investments of $3.8 million and broad market moves for investments of $0.6 million.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We believe that our current cash and foreign currencies on hand, our available borrowing capacity under the ING Credit Facility (as defined below under “Financing Transactions”), and our anticipated cash flows from operations will be adequate to meet our cash needs for our daily operations for at least the next twelve months. This “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources” section should be read in conjunction with the notes to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements.
On June 24, 2020, our sole stockholder approved a proposal to authorize us to be subject to a reduced asset coverage ratio of at least 150% under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As a result of stockholder approval, effective June 25, 2020, our applicable minimum asset coverage ratio under the 1940 Act was decreased to 150% from 200%. Thus, we are permitted under the 1940 Act, under specified conditions, to issue multiple classes of debt and one class of stock senior to our common stock if our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least equal to 150% immediately after each such issuance. Our asset coverage ratio was 189.8% as of March 31, 2024.
Cash Flows
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we experienced a net decrease in cash in the amount of $4.7 million. During that period, our operating activities provided $5.1 million in cash, with proceeds from sales or repayments of portfolio investments totaling $43.2 million and other cash collections from investments exceeding purchases of portfolio investments of $51.6 million. In addition, our financing activities, consisting of dividends paid, used $9.8 million of cash. As of March 31, 2024, we had $31.5 million of cash on hand, including foreign currencies.
For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we experienced a net decrease in cash in the amount of $42.6 million. During that period, our operating activities used $93.5 million in cash, consisting primarily of purchases of portfolio investments of $118.9 million, partially offset by proceeds from sales or repayments of portfolio investments totaling $21.6 million. In addition, our financing activities provided $50.8 million of cash, consisting primarily of net borrowings under the ING Credit
Facility totaling $60.0 million, partially offset by dividends paid in the amount of $9.2 million. As of March 31, 2023, we had $18.2 million of cash on hand, including foreign currencies.
Financing Transactions
ING Capital Credit Facility
On January 15, 2021, we entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (as subsequently amended and restated, the “ING Credit Facility”) with ING Capital LLC (“ING”) as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The initial commitments under the ING Credit Facility totaled $65.0 million.
On April 30, 2021, we amended and restated the credit agreement governing the ING Credit Facility to increase the total commitments under the facility to $325.0 million and include a $25.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. On July 22, 2021, we entered into an incremental commitment and assumption agreement to increase the aggregate commitments under the ING Credit Facility to $500.0 million. As amended as of March 31, 2022, we had aggregate commitments from lenders of $500.0 million under the ING Credit Facility, the maximum commitment then allowed under the ING Credit Facility. On April 25, 2022, we amended the ING Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) increase total commitments from lenders to $625.0 million from $500.0 million, (ii) upsize the accordion feature under the ING Credit Facility to allow for an increase in aggregate commitments thereunder from new and existing lenders on the same terms and conditions as the existing commitments up to a total of $800.0 million, subject to certain conditions and the satisfaction of specified financial covenants, and (iii) replace the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) benchmark provisions under the ING Credit Facility with SOFR benchmark provisions. On October 13, 2022, we amended the ING Credit Facility to increase total commitments from lenders to $710.0 million from $625.0 million.
We can borrow foreign currencies directly under the ING Credit Facility. The ING Credit Facility is secured primarily by a material portion of our present and future property and assets and is guaranteed by certain of our subsidiaries. The revolving period under the ING Credit Facility terminates on April 30, 2025, and the final maturity date of the ING Credit Facility is scheduled for April 30, 2026.
Borrowings under the ING Credit Facility bear interest on a per annum basis equal to (i) for borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars, subject to our election, (a) the alternate base rate plus 1.15% or (b) the term SOFR plus 2.15% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% for borrowings with an interest period of one month, 0.15% for borrowings with an interest period of three months or 0.25% for borrowings with an interest period of six months, with the term SOFR plus credit spread adjustment subject to a 0.00% floor, (ii) for borrowings denominated in Pounds Sterling, Swiss Francs, Euros, Canadian Dollars, Danish Kroner, Norwegian Kroner or Swedish Kronor, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.15%, (iii) for borrowings denominated in Australian Dollars, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.35%, or (iv) for borrowings denominated in New Zealand Dollars, the adjusted eurocurrency rate plus 2.45%. The alternate base rate is equal to the greatest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, (iii) the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50%, (iv) one-month term SOFR plus 1.00% plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10% and (v) 1.00%. The adjusted eurocurrency rate is equal to the eurocurrency rate for the applicable interest period plus any applicable statutory reserve rate for such interest period, subject to a 0.00% floor. We pay a commitment fee on undrawn amounts under the ING Credit Facility.
The ING Credit Facility contains certain affirmative and negative covenants, including but not limited to (i) maintaining minimum stockholders’ equity, (ii) maintaining a minimum asset coverage ratio of (a) 150% at any time that more than 70% of the total fair value of our portfolio comprises cash, cash equivalents, long-term U.S. government securities or first lien loans to portfolio companies, or (b) 167% or 200% at specified concentrations of such assets at amounts less than or equal to 70% of the total fair value of our portfolio, (iii) meeting a minimum liquidity test, (iv) meeting a minimum net worth test, and (v) maintaining our status as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The ING Credit Facility also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice provisions, including, without limitation, nonpayment, misrepresentation of representations and warranties in a material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy, certain change of control events, and the occurrence of a material adverse effect. The ING Credit Facility also permits the administrative agent to select an independent third-party valuation firm to determine valuations of certain portfolio investments for purposes of borrowing base provisions.
ING and other lenders under the ING Credit Facility, and their respective affiliates, may from time to time receive customary fees and expenses in the performance of investment banking, financial advisory or other services for us. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants of the ING Credit Facility.
We, one of our subsidiaries, BCIC Holdings, Inc., ING, as administrative agent, the financing agents and designated indebtedness holders that become parties thereto and ING, as collateral agent, also entered into a guarantee, pledge and security
agreement, dated as of January 15, 2021, pursuant to which our obligations under the ING Credit Facility are secured by a first-priority security interest (subject to certain exceptions) in substantially all of our and our subsidiary guarantors’ present and future property and assets.
As of March 31, 2024, we had U.S. dollar borrowings of $533.0 million under the ING Credit Facility with an interest rate of 7.569% (with Term SOFR borrowings subject to one month SOFR of 5.319%), borrowings denominated in British pounds sterling of £31.2 million ($39.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 7.371% (one month SONIA of 5.221%), borrowings denominated in Euros of €61.5 million ($66.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.088% (one month EURIBOR of 3.938%) and borrowings denominated in Australian Dollars of A$5.5 million ($3.6 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.650% (one month AUD Screen Rate of 4.300%). The borrowings denominated in foreign currencies were translated into U.S. dollars based on the spot rate at the relevant balance sheet date. The impact resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on the ING Credit Facility borrowings is included in “Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) - foreign currency transactions” in our Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.
The fair values of the borrowings outstanding under the ING Credit Facility are based on a market yield approach and current interest rates, which are Level 3 inputs to the market yield model. As of March 31, 2024, the total fair value of the borrowings outstanding under the ING Credit Facility was $642.4 million. See “Note 5. Borrowings — ING Capital Credit Facility” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the ING Credit Facility.
February 2027 Notes
On February 22, 2022, we entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “February 2022 NPA”) governing the issuance of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes due February 22, 2027 (the “February 2027 Notes”), in each case, to qualified institutional investors in a private placement. The February 2027 Notes were delivered and paid for on February 22, 2022.
The February 2027 Notes, for which we were required to obtain an initial rating by June 30, 2022, have a fixed interest rate of 4.75% per year, subject to a step up of 0.75% per year, to the extent the February 2027 Notes fail to satisfy certain investment grade rating conditions.
The February 2027 Notes will mature on February 22, 2027 unless redeemed, purchased or prepaid prior to such date by us in accordance with the terms of the February 2022 NPA. Interest on the February 2027 Notes will be due semiannually in February and August of each year, beginning in August 2022. In addition, we are obligated to offer to repay the February 2027 Notes at par (plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of prepayment) if certain change in control events occur. Subject to the terms of the February 2022 NPA, we may redeem the February 2027 Notes in whole or in part at any time or from time to time at our option at par plus accrued interest to the prepayment date and, if redeemed on or before August 22, 2026, a make-whole premium.
The February 2022 NPA contains certain representations and warranties, and various covenants and reporting requirements customary for agreements of this type, including, without limitation, information reporting, maintenance of our status as a BDC within the meaning of the 1940 Act, and certain restrictions with respect to transactions with affiliates, fundamental changes, changes of line of business, liens, restricted payments, and investments. In addition, the February 2022 NPA contains the following financial covenants: (a) maintaining a minimum obligors’ net worth, measured as of each fiscal quarter-end; (b) not permitting our asset coverage ratio, as of the date of the incurrence of any debt for borrowed money or the making of any cash dividend to stockholders, to be less than the statutory minimum then applicable to us under the 1940 Act; and (c) not permitting our net debt to equity ratio to exceed 2.0x, measured as of each fiscal quarter-end.
The February 2022 NPA also contains customary events of default with customary cure and notice periods, including, without limitation, nonpayment, incorrect representation in any material respect, breach of covenant, cross-default under other indebtedness or that of our subsidiary guarantors, if any, certain judgements and orders, and certain events of bankruptcy. Upon the occurrence of certain events of default, the holders of at least 66-2/3% in principal amount of the February 2027 Notes at the time outstanding may declare all February 2027 Notes then outstanding to be immediately due and payable.
Our obligations under the February 2022 NPA are general unsecured obligations that rank pari passu with all outstanding and future unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness issued by us. As of March 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all covenants under the February 2022 NPA.
The February 2027 Notes were offered in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The February 2027 Notes have not and will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities
laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act, as applicable.
As of March 31, 2024, the fair value of the outstanding February 2027 Notes was $92.1 million. The fair value determination of the February 2027 Notes was based on a market yield approach and current interest rates, which are Level 3 inputs to the market yield model.
Distributions to Stockholders
We intend to pay quarterly distributions to our stockholders out of assets legally available for distribution. We have adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of dividends on behalf of our stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, when we declare a dividend, stockholders who have not opted out of the DRIP will have their dividends automatically reinvested in shares of our common stock, rather than receiving cash dividends.
We have elected for federal income tax purposes to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under the Code, and intend to make the required distributions to our stockholders as specified therein. In order to maintain our tax treatment as a RIC and to obtain RIC tax benefits, we must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then we are generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of our taxable income and gains we do not distribute (actually or constructively). We monitor our distribution requirements with the goal of ensuring compliance with the Code. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit the payment of any level of cash distributions and our ability to make distributions will be limited by the asset coverage requirement and related provisions under the 1940 Act and contained in any applicable indenture or financing agreement and related supplements. In addition, in order to satisfy the annual distribution requirement applicable to RICs, we may declare a significant portion of our dividends in shares of our common stock instead of in cash. A stockholder generally would be subject to tax on 100% of the fair market value of the dividend on the date the dividend is received by the stockholder in the same manner as a cash dividend, even though a portion of the dividend was paid in shares of our common stock.
The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require us to distribute to our stockholders each year at least 90% of our investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), as defined by the Code. Depending on the level of ICTI and net capital gain, if any, earned in a tax year, we may choose to carry forward income in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year and pay a 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such excess. Any such carryover income must be distributed before the end of the next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such income.
ICTI generally differs from net investment income for financial reporting purposes due to temporary and permanent differences in the recognition of income and expenses. We may be required to recognize ICTI in certain circumstances in which we do not receive cash. For example, if we hold debt obligations that are treated under applicable tax rules as having original issue discount (“OID”) (such as debt instruments issued with warrants), we must include in ICTI each year a portion of the OID that accrues over the life of the obligation, regardless of whether cash representing such income is received by us in the same taxable year. We may also have to include in ICTI other amounts that we have not yet received in cash, such as (i) PIK interest income and (ii) interest income from investments that have been classified as non-accrual for financial reporting purposes. Interest income on non-accrual investments is not recognized for financial reporting purposes, but generally is recognized in ICTI. Because any OID or other amounts accrued will be included in our ICTI for the year of accrual, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements, even though we will not have received and may not ever receive any corresponding cash amount. ICTI also excludes net unrealized appreciation or depreciation, as investment gains or losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized.
Recent Developments
Subsequent to March 31, 2024, we made approximately $5.9 million of new commitments, of which $5.6 million closed and funded. The $5.6 million of investments consists of $5.6 million of first lien senior secured debt investments and $46.9 thousand of equity investments. The weighted average yield of the debt investments was 11.3%. In addition, we funded $1.9 million of previously committed revolvers and delayed draw term loans.
On May 7, 2024, the Board declared a quarterly dividend of $0.64 per share payable on June 12, 2024 to holders of record as of May 29, 2024.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
The preparation of our unaudited financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods covered by such financial statements. We have identified investment valuation and revenue recognition as our most critical accounting estimates. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates, including those related to the matters described below. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to us and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions. A discussion of our critical accounting policies follows.
Valuation of Investments
The Adviser conducts the valuation of our investments, upon which our net asset value (“NAV”) is primarily based, in accordance with its valuation policy, as well as established and documented processes and methodologies for determining the fair values of portfolio company investments on a recurring (at least quarterly) basis in accordance with the 1940 Act and FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC Topic 820”). Our current valuation policy and processes were established by the Adviser and were approved by the Board.
As of March 31, 2024, our investment portfolio, valued at fair value in accordance with the Board-approved valuation policies, represented approximately 203% of our total net assets, as compared to approximately 207% of our total net assets as of December 31, 2023.
Under ASC Topic 820, fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between a willing buyer and a willing seller at the measurement date. For our portfolio securities, fair value is generally the amount that we might reasonably expect to receive upon the current sale of the security. The fair value measurement assumes that the sale occurs in the principal market for the security, or in the absence of a principal market, in the most advantageous market for the security. If no market for the security exists or if we do not have access to the principal market, the security should be valued based on the sale occurring in a hypothetical market.
Under ASC Topic 820, there are three levels of valuation inputs, as follows:
Level 1 Inputs – include quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 Inputs – include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, and inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument.
Level 3 Inputs – include inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.
A financial instrument is categorized within the ASC Topic 820 valuation hierarchy based upon the lowest level of input to the valuation process that is significant to the fair value measurement. For example, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable (Level 3). Therefore, unrealized appreciation and depreciation related to such investments categorized as Level 3 investments within the tables in the notes to our consolidated financial statements may include changes in fair value that are attributable to both observable inputs (Levels 1 and 2) and unobservable inputs (Level 3).
Our investment portfolio includes certain debt and equity instruments of privately held companies for which quoted prices or other observable inputs falling within the categories of Level 1 and Level 2 are generally not available. In such cases, the Adviser determines the fair value of our investments in good faith primarily using Level 3 inputs. In certain cases, quoted prices or other observable inputs exist, and if so, the Adviser assesses the appropriateness of the use of these third-party quotes in determining fair value based on (i) its understanding of the level of actual transactions used by the broker to develop the quote and whether the quote was an indicative price or binding offer and (ii) the depth and consistency of broker quotes and the correlation of changes in broker quotes with underlying performance of the portfolio company.
There is no single approach for determining fair value in good faith, as fair value depends upon the specific circumstances of each individual investment. The recorded fair values of our Level 3 investments may differ significantly from fair values that would have been used had an active market for the securities existed. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on these investments to be different than the valuations currently assigned.
Investment Valuation Process
The Board must determine fair value in good faith for any or all of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available. The Board has designated the Adviser as valuation designee to perform the fair value determinations relating to the value of these assets. Barings has established a pricing committee that is, subject to the oversight of the Board,
responsible for the approval, implementation and oversight of the processes and methodologies that relate to the pricing and valuation of assets we hold. Barings uses independent third-party providers to price the portfolio, but in the event an acceptable price cannot be obtained from an approved external source, Barings will utilize alternative methods in accordance with internal pricing procedures established by Barings’ pricing committee.
At least annually, Barings conducts reviews of the primary pricing vendors to validate that the inputs used in the vendors’ pricing process are deemed to be market observable. While Barings is not provided access to proprietary models of the vendors, the reviews have included on-site walkthroughs of the pricing process, methodologies and control procedures for each asset class and level for which prices are provided. The review also includes an examination of the underlying inputs and assumptions for a sample of individual securities across asset classes, credit rating levels and various durations, a process Barings continues to perform annually. In addition, the pricing vendors have an established challenge process in place for all security valuations, which facilitates identification and resolution of prices that fall outside expected ranges. Barings believes that the prices received from the pricing vendors are representative of prices that would be received to sell the assets at the measurement date (i.e., exit prices).
Our money market fund investments are generally valued using Level 1 inputs and our equity investments listed on an exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System are valued using Level 1 inputs, using the last quoted sale price of that day. Our syndicated senior secured loans and structured product investments are generally valued using Level 2 inputs, which are generally valued at the bid quotation obtained from dealers in loans by an independent pricing service. Our middle-market, private debt and equity investments are generally valued using Level 3 inputs.
Independent Valuation
The fair value of loans and equity investments that are not syndicated or for which market quotations are not readily available, including middle-market loans, are generally submitted to independent providers to perform an independent valuation on those loans and equity investments as of the end of each quarter. Such loans and equity investments are initially held at cost, as that is a reasonable approximation of fair value on the acquisition date, and monitored for material changes that could affect the valuation (for example, changes in interest rates or the credit quality of the borrower). At the quarter end following that of the initial acquisition, such loans and equity investments are generally sent to a valuation provider which will determine the fair value of each investment. The independent valuation providers apply various methods (synthetic rating analysis, discounting cash flows, and re-underwriting analysis) to establish the rate of return a market participant would require (the “discount rate”) as of the valuation date, given market conditions, prevailing lending standards and the perceived credit quality of the issuer. Future expected cash flows for each investment are discounted back to present value using these discount rates in the discounted cash flow analysis. A range of values will be provided by the valuation provider and Barings will determine the point within that range that it will use. If the Barings’ pricing committee disagrees with the price range provided, it may make a fair value recommendation to Barings that is outside of the range provided by the independent valuation provider and the reasons therefore. In certain instances, we may determine that it is not cost-effective, and as a result is not in the stockholders’ best interests, to request an independent valuation firm to perform an independent valuation on certain investments. Such instances include, but are not limited to, situations where the fair value of the investment in the portfolio company is determined to be insignificant relative to the total investment portfolio.
Valuation Inputs
The Adviser’s valuation techniques are based upon both observable and unobservable pricing inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Adviser’s market assumptions. The Adviser’s 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. An independent pricing service provider is the preferred source of pricing a loan, however, to the extent the independent pricing service provider price is unavailable or not relevant and reliable, the Adviser will utilize alternative approaches such as broker quotes or manual prices. The Adviser attempts to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The availability of observable inputs can vary from investment to investment and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets and other characteristics particular to the security.
Valuation of Investments in Banff Partners LP, Thompson Rivers LLC and Waccamaw River LLC
As Banff Partners LP, Thompson Rivers LLC and Waccamaw River LLC are investment companies with no readily determinable fair values, the Adviser estimates the fair value of our investments in these entities using the NAV of each company and our ownership percentage as a practical expedient. The NAV is determined in accordance with the specialized accounting guidance for investment companies.
Revenue Recognition
Interest and Dividend Income
Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. 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 a restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. The cessation of recognition of such interest will negatively impact the reported fair value of the investment. We write off any previously accrued and uncollected interest when it is determined that interest is no longer considered collectible. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
We may have to include interest income in our ICTI, including OID income, from investments that have been classified as non-accrual for financial reporting purposes. Interest income on non-accrual investments is not recognized for financial reporting purposes, but generally is recognized in ICTI. As a result, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements to maintain our RIC tax treatment, even though we will not have received and may not ever receive any corresponding cash amount. Additionally, any loss recognized by us for U.S. federal income tax purposes on previously accrued interest income will be treated as a capital loss.
Fee Income
Origination, facility, commitment, consent and other advance fees received in connection with the origination of a loan (“Loan Origination Fees”) are recorded as deferred income and recognized as investment income over the term of the loan. Upon prepayment of a loan, any unamortized Loan Origination Fees are recorded as investment income. In the general course of our business, we receive certain fees from portfolio companies, which are non-recurring in nature. Such fees include loan prepayment penalties, structuring fees, covenant waiver fees and loan amendment fees, and are recorded as investment income when earned.
Fee income for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 was as follows: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three Months Ended | | Three Months Ended | | | | |

Total Non-Recurring Fee Income | 371 | | | 422 | | | | | |
Total Fee Income | $ | 1,596 | | | $ | 1,686 | | | | | |
Payment-in-Kind (PIK) Interest Income
We currently hold, and expect to hold in the future, some loans in our portfolio that contain PIK interest provisions. PIK interest, computed at the contractual rate specified in each loan agreement, is periodically added to the principal balance of the loan, rather than being paid to us in cash, and is recorded as interest income. Thus, the actual collection of PIK interest may be deferred until the time of debt principal repayment.
PIK interest, which is a non-cash source of income at the time of recognition, is included in our taxable income and therefore affects the amount we are required to distribute to our stockholders to maintain our tax treatment as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, even though we have not yet collected the cash. Generally, when current cash 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 PIK interest income on that loan for financial reporting purposes until all principal and interest have been brought current through payment or due to a
restructuring such that the interest income is deemed to be collectible. We write off any previously accrued and uncollected PIK interest when it is determined that the PIK interest is no longer collectible.
We may have to include in our ICTI, PIK interest income from investments that have been classified as non-accrual for financial reporting purposes. Interest income on non-accrual investments is not recognized for financial reporting purposes, but generally is recognized in ICTI. As a result, we may be required to make a distribution to our stockholders in order to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements, even though we will not have received and may not ever receive any corresponding cash amount.
Unused Commitments
In the normal course of business, we are party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, consisting primarily of unused commitments to extend financing to our portfolio companies. Since commitments may expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment amount does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. As of March 31, 2024, we believe we have adequate financial resources to satisfy our unfunded commitments. The balances of unused commitments to extend financing as of March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were as follows:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are subject to market risk. Market risk includes risks that arise from changes in interest rates, commodity prices, equity prices and other market changes that affect market sensitive instruments. The fair value of securities held by us may decline in response to certain events, including those directly involving the companies we invest in; conditions affecting the general economy; overall market changes; global pandemics; legislative reform; local, regional, national or global political, social or economic instability; and interest rate fluctuations.
In addition, we are subject to interest rate risk. Interest rate risk is defined as the sensitivity of our current and future earnings to interest rate volatility, 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 general 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 and originate loans and securities and the value of our investment portfolio. Our net investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including EURIBOR, BBSY, STIBOR, CDOR, SOFR, SONIA, SARON, NIBOR and BKBM. Our risk management systems and procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risk, to set appropriate policies and limits and to continually monitor these risks. We regularly measure exposure to interest rate risk and determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2024, we were not a party to any interest rate hedging arrangements.
As of the end of June 2023, no settings of LIBOR continue to be published on a representative basis and publication of many non-U.S. dollar LIBOR settings has been entirely discontinued. On March 15, 2022, the U.S. enacted federal legislation that is intended to minimize legal and economic uncertainty following U.S. dollar LIBOR’s cessation by replacing LIBOR references in certain U.S. law-governed contracts under certain circumstances with a SOFR-based rate identified in a Federal Reserve rule plus a statutory spread adjustment. In addition, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates the publisher of LIBOR (ICE Benchmark Administration), has announced that it will require the continued publication of the one-, three- and six-month tenors of U.S. dollar LIBOR on a non-representative synthetic basis until the end of September 2024, which may result in certain non-U.S. law-governed contracts and U.S. law-governed contracts not covered by the federal legislation remaining on synthetic U.S. dollar LIBOR until the end of this period.
Our loan agreements with our portfolio companies that referenced LIBOR included fallback language in the event that LIBOR was discontinued, became unrepresentative or in the event that the method for determining LIBOR has changed. As a result of this language or through other bi-lateral amendments, all of these loan agreements have transitioned to an alternative reference rate.
The transition away from LIBOR and reform, modification, or adjustments of other reference rate benchmarks to alternative reference rates is complex and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, including as a result of any changes in the pricing of our investments, changes to the documentation for certain of our investments and the pace of such changes, disputes and other actions regarding the interpretation of current and prospective loan documentation or modifications to processes and systems.
The U.S. Federal Reserve previously embarked on a campaign of raising interest rates to address significant and persistent inflation. The goal of these interest rate increases was to slow economic growth and reduce price pressure. There remains a chance that this central bank tightening cycle could force the United States into a recession, or that interest rates and base rates
may otherwise decrease. A prolonged reduction in interest rates will reduce our gross investment income and could result in a decrease in our net investment income if such decreases in SOFR are not offset by a corresponding increase in the spread over SOFR that we earn on any portfolio investments, a decrease in in our operating expenses, including with respect to our income incentive fee, or a decrease in the interest rate of our floating interest rate liabilities tied to SOFR.
As of March 31, 2024, approximately $1,040.7 million (principal amount) of our debt portfolio investments bore interest at variable rates, which generally are SOFR-based (or based on an equivalent applicable currency rate), and many of which are subject to certain floors. As of March 31, 2024, approximately $642.4 million (principal amount) of our borrowings bore interest at variable rates (approximately 86.5% of our total borrowings as of March 31, 2024) under the ING Credit Facility. See “Note 5. Borrowings — ING Capital Credit Facility” to our Unconsolidated Consolidated Financial Statements for information about the variable interest rates and spreads applicable to borrowings under the ING Credit Facility.
Based on our March 31, 2024 Unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheet, the following table shows the annual impact on net income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates on our debt investments and borrowings (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments) assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:

(1) Excludes the impact of foreign currency exchange.
(2) Excludes the impact of income based fees. See “Note 2. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” to our Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the income based fees.
We may also have exposure to foreign currencies related to certain investments. Such investments are translated into U.S. dollars based on the spot rate at the relevant balance sheet date, exposing us to movements in the exchange rate. In order to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates, we generally borrow in local foreign currencies under the ING Credit Facility to finance such investments. As of March 31, 2024, we had U.S. dollar borrowings of $533.0 million outstanding under the ING Credit Facility with an interest rate of 7.569% (with Term SOFR borrowings subject to one month SOFR of 5.319%), borrowings denominated in British pounds sterling of £31.2 million ($39.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 7.371% (one month SONIA of 5.221%), borrowings denominated in Euros of €61.5 million ($66.4 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.088% (one month EURIBOR of 3.938%) and borrowings denominated in Australian Dollars of A$5.5 million ($3.6 million U.S. dollars) with an interest rate of 6.650% (one month AUD Screen Rate of 4.300%).
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, 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. Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on the evaluation of these disclosure controls and procedures, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2024. It should be noted that any system of controls, however well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. In addition, the design of any control system is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events. Because of these and other inherent limitations of control systems, there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the first quarter of 2024 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, the Adviser, nor our subsidiaries are currently subject to any material pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to our respective businesses. We, the Adviser, and our subsidiaries may from time to time, however, be involved in litigation arising out of our operations in the normal course of business or otherwise, including in connection with strategic transactions. Furthermore, third parties may seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our portfolio companies. While the outcome of any current legal proceedings cannot at this time be predicted with certainty, we do not expect any current matters will materially affect our financial condition or results of operations; however, there can be no assurance whether any pending legal proceedings will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations in any future reporting period.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
You should carefully consider the risks referenced below and all other information contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including our interim financial statements and the related notes thereto, before making a decision to transact in our securities. The risks and uncertainties referenced herein are not the only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or operating results, as well as the value of our securities.
There have been no material changes during the three months ended March 31, 2024 to the risk factors previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, which you should carefully consider before transacting in our securities. If any of such risks actually occur, our business, financial condition or results of operations could be materially adversely affected. If that happens, the value of our securities could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment.
