Letter from the President (unaudited)

Dear Fellow Shareholders,

In my letter to you last year, I referenced the famous opening lines of Charles Dickens's A Tale of Two Cities to highlight the extant dualities in the investment environment: Was it the "best of times" or the "worst of times"? In recent years, First Eagle has consistently warned of financial markets' complacency in the face of mounting distortions and risks. With inflation that turned out to be more persistent than initially assumed and a newly resolute Federal Reserve, the balance in 2022 shifted to the "worst of times" for those unaccustomed to market corrections.

We think the equity markets' pullback in 2022 largely represented a rational and mathematical response to higher interest rates. When rates are 0%, a $100 payout 10 years from now is worth $100 today; with interest rates at 4%, the same 10-year payout is worth only $60.

As the cost of money rose in 2022, assets with uncertain, option-like payoffs far in the future declined significantly in value, including some of the most speculative pandemic-era success stories—from special purpose acquisition companies (SPACs) to emerging tech names to cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, stocks with consistent cash flows fared much better, as sectors like health care, consumer staples and materials demonstrated relative resilience in the challenging environment. At an aggregate level, the MSCI World Value Index outperformed the MSCI World Growth Index by more than 2,000 basis points in 2022.¹

Bondholders may have been the cohort of investors most surprised by the year's events. After 40 years of steadily declining yields, most market participants had a limited frame of reference for the Fed's aggressive pace of rate hikes. For context, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index, since its inception 40 years ago, had previously lost money on an annual basis only four times, the worst of which was a decline of only 2.9%; however in 2022, the index was down 13.0%!¹ We wonder the extent to which this episode will alter investors' perceptions of risk in bond markets and structurally impact approaches to portfolio construction that were before now widely accepted, such as target date funds that tilt heavily toward supposedly "safe" fixed income investments for those in or near retirement. We have been wary of the very low yields available in public fixed income markets for some time and, in our view, were positioned appropriately for what transpired in 2022—whether through shorter-than-benchmark durations or exposure to floating-rate investments, depending on the specific mandate.

Letter from the President (unaudited)

Though the Fed may have initially underestimated the persistence of inflation in the United States, it has since acted decisively and headed into year-end with a hawkish tilt. Despite this, futures markets currently assume that the fed funds terminal rate will peak shy of 5% before the central bank pivots to rate cuts in the second half of 2023.² We think this can be interpreted in one of two ways: Markets are either 1) confident in the Fed's ability to engineer a soft landing as it combats inflation, or 2) skeptical of the Fed's resolve if the economy slows. While we don't presume to be able to predict inflation, we note that the slow responsiveness of prices, particularly in the labor market, could result in a more circuitous path toward target-level inflation than soft-landing proponents expect. Labor-availability issues have pushed wage inflation to levels nearly double their norm, and wages historically have been difficult to walk back without job losses or an economic slowdown.³

In the period covered by this report, broad weakness that began in the investment grade and high yield bond markets also seeped into the floating-rate debt market. Though inflation and tighter financial conditions have started to weigh on borrowers, credit fundamentals have remained mostly supportive, for now. Loan issuance, in contrast, has been battered by higher rates and volatility, as well as increased competition from more traditional debt investments. In this environment, our Alternative Credit team put money to work selectively with an eye toward the long term. We believe the team's thoughtful strategy and painstaking execution have the potential to mitigate the impact of a tumultuous market.

So, to continue on the Dickens theme, do we have Great Expectations for the coming year? Not broadly, as we think the path ahead will remain volatile. Monetary policy takes time to transmit through the system, and it's reasonable to expect that the Fed's actions have yet to fully manifest in the economy. We will continue to look for opportunities where we can find them, but we remain wary of the many risks that are present.

As always, we seek to offer clients a differentiated range of investment options that meet their specific investment needs and we believe will demonstrate the potential for resilience through different states of the world. Across market cycles, macroeconomic conditions and disruptive events, we remain focused on our goal of delivering long-term shareholder value while avoiding the permanent impairment of your capital.

Sincerely,

Mehdi Mahmud,

President

Management's Discussion of Fund Performance (unaudited)

Duration is a way of measuring a debt instrument's sensitivity to a potential change in interest rates.

Federal funds rate is the interest rate at which depository institutions (banks and credit unions) lend reserve balances to other depository institutions overnight on an uncollateralized basis.

Floating-rate securities are financial instruments whose interest rate is adjusted periodically based on movements in an underlying reference rate.

Special-purpose acquisition company (SPACs) are publicly listed entities formed solely to acquire one or more privately held companies.

Target-date funds are packaged asset-allocation products whose investment allocation shifts over time as their target date nears.

Credit Suisse Leveraged Loan Index measures the performance of the investable universe of the USD-denominated leveraged loan market. The index inception is January 1992. The index frequency is daily, weekly and monthly.

Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index measures the performance of investment grade, US dollar-denominated, fixed-rate taxable bond market, including Treasuries, government-related and corporate securities, MBS (agency fixed-rate and hybrid ARM passthroughs), ABS and CMBS.

MSCI World Growth Index measures the performance of large and midcap securities exhibiting growth style characteristics across 23 developed markets countries. The growth investment style characteristics for index construction are defined using five variables: long-term forward EPS growth rate, short-term forward EPS growth rate, current internal growth rate, long-term historical EPS growth trend, and long-term historical sales per share growth trend.

MSCI World Value Index measures the performance of large and midcap securities exhibiting value style characteristics across 23 developed markets countries. The growth investment style characteristics for index construction are defined using three variables: book value to price, 12-month forward earnings to price, and dividend yield.

Indexes are unmanaged and one cannot invest directly in an index.

‡ Value determined using significant unobservable inputs.

(a) Senior loans pay interest at rates that are periodically determined on the basis of a floating benchmark lending rate, sometimes subject to a floor, plus a spread, unless otherwise indicated. The most popular benchmark lending rates are LIBOR (the rate that contributor banks in London charge each other for interbank deposits), SOFR (a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities in the repurchase agreement market), and the prime rate offered by one or more major U.S. banks ("Prime"). SOFR based contracts may include a credit spread adjustment that is charged in addition to the benchmark rate and the stated spread. LIBOR, SOFR and Prime were utilized as benchmark lending rates for the senior loans at December 31, 2022. The rates shown represent the contractual rates (benchmark rate or floor plus spread) in effect at period end.

(b) All or a portion of this position has not yet settled as of December 31, 2022. The Fund will not accrue interest on its Senior Loans until the settlement date at which point LIBOR, SOFR or Prime will be established.

(c) Represents a security that is subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. The Fund generally acquires its investments in private transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Act. Its investments are therefore generally subject to certain limitations on resale, and may be deemed to be "restricted securities" under the Securities Act.

(d) The Credit Facility is secured by a lien on all or a portion of the security. See Note 10 for additional details.

(e) Security fair valued as of December 31, 2022 in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Total value of all such securities at December 31, 2022 amounted to $168,288,758, which represents approximately 37.21% of net assets of the Fund.

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Consolidated Schedule of Investments | December 31, 2022

(f) Securities exempt from registration under Rule 144A or section 4(a)2 of the Securities Act of 1933. Total value of all such securities at December 31, 2022 amounted to $45,856,696, which represents approximately 10.14% of net assets of the Fund.

(g) Represents less than 0.05% of net assets.

(h) Represents 7-day effective yield as of December 31, 2022.

As of December 31, 2022, the gross unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of investments based on the aggregate cost of investment securities and derivative instruments, if applicable, for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation	$	1,609,102
Aggregate gross unrealized depreciation		(37,578,334	)
Net unrealized depreciation	$	(35,969,232	)

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1 — Organization

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") that continuously offers its shares of beneficial interest (the "Common Shares"), and is operated as an "interval fund." The Fund was organized as a Delaware statutory trust on July 8, 2020, pursuant to a Declaration of Trust governed by the laws of the State of Delaware as amended and restated by the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, dated as of September 4, 2020.

The Fund's primary investment objective is to provide current income, with a secondary objective of providing long-term risk-adjusted returns. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of a variety of credit asset classes. The Fund will invest, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its Managed Assets, defined as total assets of the Fund (including any assets attributable to borrowings for investment purposes) minus the sum of the Fund's accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings for investment purposes), in a credit portfolio of below investment grade credit assets including syndicated bank loans, middle market "club" loans (senior secured loans in middle market companies funded by an arranged group of lenders that generally does not involve syndication), direct lending (consisting of first lien loans, including unitranche loans), asset-based loans, and high-yield bonds (commonly referred to as "junk" bonds).

The Fund currently offers three classes of Common Shares: Class A Shares, Class A-2 Shares and Class I Shares. The Fund has been granted exemptive relief (the "Exemptive Relief") from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that permits the Fund to issue multiple classes of shares and to impose asset-based distribution fees and early-withdrawal fees. The Fund may offer additional classes of shares in the future.

First Eagle Investment Management, LLC (the "Adviser") is the investment adviser of the Fund. The Adviser is a subsidiary of First Eagle Holdings, Inc. ("First Eagle Holdings"). A controlling interest in First Eagle Holdings is owned by BCP CC Holdings L.P., a Delaware limited partnership ("BCP CC Holdings"). BCP CC Holdings GP L.L.C., a Delaware limited liability company, is the general partner of BCP CC Holdings and has two managing members, Blackstone Capital Partners VI L.P. ("BCP VI") and Corsair IV Financial Services Capital Partners L.P. ("Corsair IV"). BCP VI and Corsair IV are indirectly controlled by Blackstone Inc. ("Blackstone") and Corsair Capital LLC ("Corsair"), respectively. Investment vehicles indirectly controlled by Blackstone and Corsair and certain co-investors own a majority economic interest in First Eagle Holdings and the Adviser through BCP CC Holdings.

First Eagle Alternative Credit, LLC (the "Subadviser"), in its capacity as the alternative credit group of the Adviser, serves as the Fund's investment subadviser. The Subadviser is an investment adviser for both direct lending and broadly syndicated

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

investments, through public and private vehicles, collateralized loan obligations, separately managed accounts and commingled funds. The Subadviser was formed in 2009 under the name THL Credit Advisors LLC. In January 2020, the Subadviser was acquired by the Adviser and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Adviser.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies that are adhered to by the Fund. The Fund is an investment company and, accordingly, follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards (the "FASB") Codification Topic 946 — Investment Companies, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").

a) Investments in Subsidiaries — The First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund SPV, LLC (the "SPV"), established on January 11, 2021, is a wholly-owned Delaware limited liability company, which functions as the Fund's special purpose, bankruptcy-remote, financing subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and the SPV. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. As of December 31, 2022, the SPV has $104,009,548 in net assets, representing 23.02% of the Credit Opportunities Fund's net assets.

b) Investment Valuation — The Fund's net asset value ("NAV") per share is computed by dividing the total current value of the assets of the Fund, less its liabilities, by the total number of shares outstanding at the time of such computation. The Fund computes its NAV per share as of the close of trading on each day the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open for trading.

Portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotes are readily available are valued at market value. In circumstances where market quotes are not readily available, the Fund's Board of Trustees (the "Board") has adopted methods for determining the fair value of such securities and other assets.

The Fund's securities are valued by various methods, as described below:

Senior Loans refers to Loans and Assignments, Bank Loans, Direct Lending and Middle Market "Club" Loans. Senior Loans are primarily valued by using a composite loan price at the mean of the bid and ask prices from an approved pricing service. Investments, including Direct Loans, which are in their early stages of a private investment are generally fair valued at their cost which approximates market value and are monitored by the Adviser and the Subadviser (individually or collectively referred to as "First Eagle Management") for any significant positive or negative events that would impact valuation of the investment.

All bonds, whether listed on an exchange or traded in the over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are generally priced at the evaluated bid price provided by an approved pricing service as of the close of trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 PM EST), or dealers in the over-the-counter

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
53

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

markets in the United States or abroad. Pricing services and broker-dealers use multiple valuation techniques to determine value. In instances where sufficient market activity exists, dealers or pricing services utilize a market-based approach through which quotes from market makers are used to determine fair value. In instances where sufficient market activity may not exist or is limited, the dealers or pricing services also utilize proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable instruments and the various relationships between instruments in determining value and/or market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, option-adjusted spreads, credit spreads, estimated default rates, coupon rates, anticipated timing of principal repayments, underlying collateral, and other unique features of the instrument in order to estimate the relevant cash flows, which are then discounted to calculate the fair values. First Eagle Management's Valuation Committee, at least annually, will review the pricing service's inputs, methods, models, assumptions for its evaluated prices.

Non-exchange traded equity securities may be valued at prices supplied by the Fund's pricing agent based on the average of the bid/ask prices quoted by brokers that are knowledgeable about the securities. If broker quotes are unavailable then the equity will be fair valued pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board.

Investment companies, including money market funds, are valued at their net asset value.

If a price is not available from an independent pricing service or broker, or if the price provided is believed to be unreliable, the security will be fair valued pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board. As a general principle, the fair value of a security is the amount that the owner might reasonably expect to receive for it in a current sale. Fair value methods may include, but are not limited to, the use of market comparable and/or income approach methodologies. Using a fair value pricing methodology to value securities may result in a value that is different from a security's most recent sale price and from the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their NAV. Determination of fair value is uncertain because it involves subjective judgments and estimates. There can be no assurance that the Fund's valuation of a security will not differ from the amount that it realizes upon the sale of such security.

The Fund adopted provisions surrounding fair value measurements and disclosures that define fair value, establish a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and expand disclosures about fair value measurements. This applies to fair value measurements that are already required or permitted by other accounting standards and is intended to increase consistency of those measurements and applies broadly to securities and other types of assets and liabilities.

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
54

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The Fund discloses the fair value of the investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs or assumptions to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. These inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments and are summarized in the following fair value hierarchy:

Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;

Level 2 — Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.);

Level 3 — Other significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumption in determining the fair value of investments).

The two primary significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's debt investments, excluding asset-backed loans, is the weighted average cost of capital, or WACC, and the comparative yield. Significant increases (decreases) in the WACC or in the comparative yield in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. In determining the WACC, for the income, or yield approach, the Fund considers current market yields and multiples, portfolio company performance, leverage levels, credit quality, among other factors, including U.S. federal tax rates, in its analysis. Changes in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate WACC to use in the income approach. In determining the comparative yield, for the income, or yield approach, the Fund considers current market yields and multiples, weighted average cost of capital, portfolio company performance, leverage levels, credit quality, among other factors, including U.S. federal tax rates, in its analysis.

The primary significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's investments in asset-backed loans is the net realized value of the underlying collateral of the loan. The Fund considers information provided by the borrower in its compliance certificates and information from third party appraisals, among other factors, in its analysis. Significant increases (decreases) in net realizable value of the underlying collateral would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement.

The primary significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's equity investments, investments in warrants, and other debt investments using a market approach is the EBITDA multiple adjusted by management for differences between the investment and referenced comparables, or the multiple. Significant increases (decreases) in the multiple in isolation would result in a significantly higher (lower) fair value measurement. To determine the multiple for the market approach, the Fund considers current market trading and/or transaction multiples, portfolio company performance (financial ratios) relative to public and private peer companies and leverage levels, among other factors. Changes in one or more of these factors can have a similar directional change on other factors in determining the appropriate multiple to use in the market approach.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Fair valuation of securities, other financial instruments or other assets (collectively, "securities") held by the Fund are determined in good faith by the Adviser as "valuation designee" under the oversight of the Board. The Board Valuation, Liquidity and Allocations Committee (the "Committee") oversees the execution of the valuation and liquidity procedures for the Fund. Effective September 8, 2022, and in accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Fund's Board has designated the Adviser the "valuation designee" to perform the Fund's fair value determinations. The Adviser's fair valuation process is subject to Board oversight and certain reporting and other requirements and the Fund's fair valuation policy has been revised to incorporate changes required by Rule 2a-5.

(a) This column represents the direction change in the fair value of Level 3 securities that would result from an increase to the corresponding unobservable inputs. A decrease to the unobservable inputs would have the opposite effect. Significant increases and decreases of these inputs could result insignificantly higher or lower gain value determination.

c) Cash — The Fund's cash is maintained with a major United States financial institution, which is a member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Fund's cash balance may exceed insurance limits at times.

d) Investment Transactions and Income — Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted for the accretion of discount and amortization of premiums, is recorded daily on an accrual basis. The specific identification method is used in determining realized gains and losses from investment transactions. In computing investment income, the Fund accretes to call or put date and value providing the effective method. Paydown gains and losses are netted and recorded as interest income on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

The difference between cost and fair value on open investments is reflected as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments, and any change in that amount from prior period is reflected as change in unrealized gains (losses) of investment securities in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

e) Deferred Financing Costs — Deferred financing costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing of the Credit Facility, including upfront fees and legal fees. The costs are capitalized at the time of payment and are included in Other Assets on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The deferred financing costs are amortized using the straight line method over the term of the Credit Facility.

f) United States Income Taxes — The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company by complying with the requirements of

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
61

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Subchapter M of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies, and to distribute substantially all of its earnings to its shareholders.

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund as a whole.

Management has determined that the Fund has not taken any uncertain tax positions that require adjustment to the financial statements.

At December 31, 2022, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

	Undistributed Net Investment		Undistributed Net Realized		Net Unrealized Appreciation			Capital Loss Carryforward
	Income		Gains		(Depreciation)			Short-Term		Long-Term
First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund	$	998,596	$	—	$	(35,979,655	)	$	2,547,438	$	152,367

The components of distributable earnings' differences between book basis and tax basis are primarily due to wash sale deferrals.

Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the "Act"), net capital losses recognized by the Fund after December 31, 2010, may get carried forward indefinitely, and retain their character as short-term and/or long-term losses. For the current year, the Fund did not utilize any capital loss carryforward.

Late year ordinary losses incurred after December 31st and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were no late year ordinary loss deferrals.

Net capital losses incurred after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Fund's next taxable year. For the year ended December 31, 2022, the Fund had post-October capital loss deferrals of 2,338,036 in short-term and 232,817 in long-term.

g) Reclassification of Capital Accounts — As a result of certain differences in the computation of net investment income and net realized capital gains under federal income tax rules and regulations versus GAAP, the following amounts were reclassified within the capital accounts:

				Undistributed Net Investment Income (loss)				Undistributed Net Realized Gains (Losses)				Capital Surplus
First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund				$	(14,338	)		$	16,424			$	(2,086	)

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
62

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The primary permanent differences causing such reclassification include the tax treatment of non-deductible expenses and re-designation of distributions to shareholders.

h) Distributions to Shareholders — The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income to shareholders in the form of dividends. The Fund intends to declare income dividends daily and distribute them monthly to shareholders of record. Distributions are intended to be at levels more stable than would result from paying out solely amounts based on current net investment income. In addition, the Fund intends to distribute any net capital gains earned from the sale of portfolio securities to shareholders no less frequently than annually. Net short-term capital gains may be paid more frequently.

Distributions to shareholders during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, which were determined in accordance with income tax regulations, were recorded on ex-dividend date.

The tax character of distributions paid by the Fund during the fiscal years ended December 31, 2022 are as follows:

	Ordinary Income				Long Term Capital Gains
	2022		2021		2022		2021
First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund	$	30,189,207	$	7,992,581	$	4,326	$	—

i) Expenses — Expenses directly related to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Other operating expenses shared by several funds, also managed by the Adviser, are prorated among those funds on the basis of relative net assets or other appropriate methods.

j) Use of Estimates — The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make 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 during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

k) Class Accounting — Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealized gain or loss on investments are allocated to the various classes of the Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that class.

l) Indemnification — In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts which provide general indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Fund that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Fund expects the risk of loss to be remote.

m) New Accounting Pronouncements — In March 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2020-04, which provides optional guidance to ease the potential accounting burden associated with transitioning away from the London

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
63

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Interbank Offered Rate and other reference rates that are expected to be discontinued. The ASU is effective immediately upon release of the update on March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-06, "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 949)" which extends the effective period of ASU 2020-04 through December 31, 2024. At this time, management is evaluating implications of these changes on the financial statements.

In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-02, "Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326)", which is intended to address issues identified during the post implementation review of ASU 2016-3, "Financial Instruments Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments". The amendment, among other things, eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors in Subtopic 310-40, "Receivables Troubled Debt Restructurings by Creditors", while enhancing disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. The new guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022. Management is currently evaluating the impact of the new standard, but does not anticipate the new standard to have a material impact to the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In June 2022, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurement of Equity Securities Subject to Contractual Sale Restrictions. The amendments in the ASU 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, should not be considered in measuring fair value. The ASU is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2023, with the option of early adoption. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this new standard.

Note 3 — Securities and Other Investments

The Fund's portfolio primarily consists of some combination of the following types of investments:

Syndicated Loans — Syndicated loans are typically underwritten and syndicated by large commercial and investment banks. These loans may be recently originated by such banks pursuant to the originating bank's, or lead arranger's, underwriting standards applicable to corporate borrowers at the time of issuance. The Fund may purchase syndicated loans either in the primary market in connection with their syndication or in the secondary market. In most cases, syndicated loans will be secured by specific collateral of the issuer. In general, most of the syndicated loans purchased by the Fund will be current on principal and interest payments at the time of purchase. However, the Fund can purchase syndicated loans that are not current on principal and are likely to default. In addition, syndicated loans held by the Fund may at times cease being current on principal and interest payments.

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
64

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

When all or a portion of a loan held by the Fund has not yet settled, the Fund does not accrue interest on such a loan until the settlement date at which point LIBOR, SOFR or Prime will be established.

Middle Market "Club" Loans — Middle market "club" loans are loans made to upper middle market companies that may not have access to traditional capital markets. Middle market "club" loans are distinct from customary direct lending loans described herein in that they are generally more liquid, often rated by a third party and funded by more than one lender, often a "club" of unaffiliated lenders. Middle market "club" loans held by the Fund will consist of first lien senior secured loans.

Direct Lending — The Fund may invest in sponsor-backed, first lien senior secured directly originated loans (including "unitranche" loans, which are loans that combine both senior and mezzanine debt, generally in a first lien position) of middle-market U.S. companies. Direct lending middle market loans are generally illiquid, unrated and funded by one affiliated lender group.

Asset-Based Loans — Asset-based loans are loans that are secured by collateral consisting of inventory, accounts receivable, machinery/equipment, real estate, intellectual property/brands and/or other assets owned by the borrower(s) where by the underlying loan will be underwritten by the value of the collateral. These loans are highly structured and typically include frequent monitoring including but not limited to financial and collateral reporting. The term loans are provided to both private and public borrowers with varying ownership structures.

High Yield Bonds — The Fund may invest in high-yield bonds, which are securities rated below "Baa3" by Moody's, or below "BBB-" by S&P and/or lower than "BBB-" by Fitch Ratings and unrated debt securities and other types of credit instruments of similar quality, commonly referred to as "junk bonds." Such securities are predominately speculative with respect to the issuer's capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the obligation. The ratings of S&P represent its opinion as to the credit quality of the securities it undertakes to rate. It should be emphasized, however, the ratings are relative and subjective and, although ratings may be useful in evaluating the safety of interest and principal payments, they do not evaluate the market price risk of these securities. In seeking to achieve its investment objective, the Fund depends on credit analysis to identify investment opportunities.

Note 4 — Principal Risks

Market Risk — The Fund is subject to market risks including unexpected directional price movements, deviations from historical pricing relationships, changes in the regulatory environment, changes in market volatility, panicked or forced selling of assets and contraction of available credit or other financing sources. The success of the Fund's activities may be affected by general economic and market conditions, such as interest rates, availability of credit, inflation rates, economic uncertainty, changes in laws and national and international political circumstances including wars and conflicts (and related sanctions, currency controls, embargos and similar actions).

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

The COVID-19 pandemic and related quarantines and restrictions resulted in high unemployment, disruptions to supply chains and customer activity, and general concern and uncertainty, with corresponding impacts on financial markets worldwide. COVID-19 remains a risk with the potential that new variants could lead to increased government restrictions and consumer caution. Additionally, COVID-19 remains a challenge for global supply chain normalization. More recently, a number of major economies, including the United States, are adjusting to reduced levels of market and monetary support following periods of fiscal and monetary interventions, together with rising inflation and increases in interest rate targets by central banks. These circumstances have generated significant market stress and volatility, with market sentiment changing rapidly in response to changes in inflation or interest rate expectations.

Interest Rate Risk — An increase in interest rates tends to reduce the market value of debt instruments, while a decline in interest rates tends to increase their values. A debt instrument's "duration" is a way of measuring a debt instrument's sensitivity to a potential change in interest rates. Longer duration instruments tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter durations. Generally, debt instruments with long maturities and low coupons have the longest durations. A significant increase in market interest rates could harm the Fund's ability to attract new portfolio companies and originate new loans and investments. In periods of rising interest rates, the Fund's cost of funds would increase, resulting in a decrease in the Fund's net investment income. In addition, a decrease in interest rates may reduce net income, because new investments may be made at lower rates despite the increased demand for the Fund's capital that the decrease in interest rates may produce. As of the date hereof, there have been significant recent rate increases in the United States to combat inflation in the U.S. economy, and additional rate increases are possible.

Credit Risk — The value of the Fund's portfolio may fluctuate in response to the risk that the issuer of a bond or other instrument will not be able to make payments of interest and principal when due. Investment in private and middle market companies is highly speculative and involves a high degree of risk of credit loss. Additionally, issuers of syndicated loans and other types of credit instruments in which the Fund may invest may default on their obligations to pay principal or interest when due. This would decrease the Fund's income and lower the value of the syndicated loans and credit instruments experiencing default. With respect to the Fund's investments in syndicated loans and debt securities that are secured, there can be no assurance that the collateral would satisfy the issuer's obligation in the event of non-payment or that such collateral could be readily liquidated. In the event of an issuer's bankruptcy, the Fund could be delayed or limited in its ability to realize the benefits of any collateral securing such syndicated loans or credit instruments. To the extent the Fund invests in high-yield securities and other types of credit instruments, it will be exposed to a greater amount of credit risk than if it invested solely in investment grade debt securities and other types of credit instruments. Recent market conditions and events, including a global public

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
66

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

health crisis, wars and armed conflicts and actions taken by governments in response, may exacerbate volatility and may continue to negatively affect the price and liquidity of individual securities, national economies and global markets generally. Prices of individual securities and other investments, including those of a particular type, may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, economic or other developments that may cause broad changes in price, public perceptions concerning these developments, and adverse investor sentiment or publicity. Rapid changes in value or liquidity, which often are not anticipated and can relate to events not connected to particular investments, may limit the ability of the Fund to dispose of its assets at the price or time of its choosing and can result in losses. Changes in price may be temporary or may last for extended periods. If the Fund sells a portfolio position before it reaches its market peak, it may miss out on opportunities for better performance.

Below Investment Grade Rating Risk — Most of the Fund's investments will be in below investment grade securities or comparable unrated securities (commonly referred to as "high-yield securities" or "junk bonds"). This includes the Fund's investments in syndicated bank loans, middle market "club" loans, direct lending, asset-based loans, and high-yield bonds. While generally having higher potential returns, high-yield securities may be subject to significant price fluctuations and have a higher risk of default. Because unrated securities may not have an active trading market or may be difficult to value, the Fund might have difficulty selling them promptly at an acceptable price. To the extent that the Fund invests in unrated securities, the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objectives will be more dependent on the Subadviser's credit analysis than would be the case when the Fund invests in rated securities.

Bank Loans — Investments in bank loans may expose the Fund to the credit risk of the underlying borrower, and in certain cases, of the financial institution. A loan is often administered by a bank or other financial institution (the "Agent") that acts as agent for all holders. The Agent administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. The Fund's ability to receive payments in connection with the loan depends primarily on the financial condition of the borrower. Even investments in secured loans present risk, as there is no assurance that the collateral securing the loan will be sufficient to satisfy the loan obligation. The market for bank loans may be illiquid and the Fund may have difficulty selling them. In addition, bank loans often have contractual restrictions on resale, which can delay the sale and adversely impact the sale price. In some instances, other accounts managed by the Adviser, the Subadviser or an affiliate may hold other securities issued by borrowers whose loans may be held in the Fund's portfolio. If the credit quality of the issuer deteriorates, the Adviser or the Subadviser may owe conflicting fiduciary duties to the Fund and other client accounts. At times, the Fund may decline to receive non-public information relating to loans, which could disadvantage the Fund relative to other investors.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Distressed Debt, Litigation, Bankruptcy and Other Proceedings Risk — The Fund may invest in debt securities and other obligations of financially distressed issuers, including companies involved in reorganizations, bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings. Investments in distressed assets involve substantial risk (including a material risk of issuer default or bankruptcy), require active monitoring and demand an unusually high level of analytical sophistication for success. There is no assurance that the Subadviser will correctly evaluate the value of the collateral for the Fund's investments or the prospects for a successful reorganization or similar outcome for any company.

If the issuer defaults on the obligations or enters bankruptcy, the obligations may be repaid only after lengthy workout proceedings, may result in only partial payment of the obligations and may pose the risk of the Fund losing its entire investment in such securities. The Fund may have to reduce or forego payment of distributions if the income and/or dividends the Fund receives from its investments decline.

A bankruptcy filing by an issuer may adversely and permanently affect its market position and operations. Many factors of the bankruptcy process, including court decisions, the size and priority of other claims, and the duration and costs of the process, are beyond the control of the Fund and can adversely affect its return on investment. The Subadviser, on behalf of the Fund, may also participate on committees formed by creditors to negotiate with debtors regarding restructuring issues. There can be no assurance that the Subadviser's participation would be favorable for the Fund, and such participation may subject the Fund to additional duties, liabilities and trading restrictions in a particular investment.

Certain fixed-income instruments in which the Fund invests could be subject to U.S. federal, state or non-U.S. bankruptcy laws or fraudulent transfer or conveyance laws, if such securities were issued with the intent of hindering or defrauding creditors or, in certain circumstances, if the issuer does not receive reasonable value or fair consideration for issuing such securities. If a court were to determine that the issuance was a fraudulent transfer or conveyance, the court could void the payment obligations under the securities, subordinate the securities to other existing and future indebtedness of the issuer or require the Fund to repay any amounts it received with respect to the securities. If the Fund or the Subadviser is found to have interfered with the affairs of a portfolio company, to the detriment of the company's other creditors or common shareholders, the Fund may be held liable for damages to injured parties or a bankruptcy court. While the Fund will seek to avoid incurring such liability, there can be no assurance that it will be successful. Moreover, such debt may be disallowed, subordinated to the claims of other creditors or treated as equity. If the Fund or Subadviser has representatives on a portfolio company's board, such involvement may subject the Fund to additional liability, restrict its ability to dispose of debt investments or result in recharacterization of its debt investments as equity.

Loans and Assignments Risk — The Fund may acquire loans through assignments of interests in such loans. The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to all

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
68

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

the rights and obligations of the assigning institution and becomes a lender under the credit agreement with respect to such debt obligation. However, the purchaser's rights can be more restricted than those of the assigning institution, and the Fund may not be able to unilaterally enforce all rights and remedies under an assigned debt obligation and with regard to any associated collateral.

Direct Lending and Middle Market "Club" Loan Risk — Generally, little public information exists about private and middle market companies, and the Fund must rely on the ability of the Subadviser's investment professionals to obtain adequate information about these companies. If the Subadviser cannot uncover all material information to make a fully-informed investment decision, the Fund may lose money on its investments. Private and middle market portfolio companies may have limited financial resources and be unable to fulfill their debt service obligations to the Fund, which may accompany a deterioration in the value of any collateral and a reduced likelihood of the Fund realizing any guarantees it may have obtained in connection with its investment. In addition, such companies typically have shorter operating histories, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render them more vulnerable to competitors' actions and general market conditions. Additionally, middle market companies are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, incapacity or departure of such persons could have a material adverse impact on the Fund's portfolio company and, in turn, on the Fund. Middle market companies also generally have less predictable operating results and may require substantial additional capital to finance their operations or expansion. In addition, the Fund's executive officers, directors and the Adviser and/or Subadviser may, in the ordinary course of business, be named as defendants in litigation arising from the Fund's investments in its portfolio companies.

Large Shareholder Risk — To the extent that certain shareholders, including affiliates of the Adviser and the Subadviser, hold a substantial amount of Common Shares, there is a risk that these shareholders will seek to sell Common Shares in large amounts rapidly in connection with repurchase offers. These transactions could adversely affect the Fund's ability to conduct its investment program. Additionally, if a repurchase offer is oversubscribed by shareholders, the Fund will repurchase only a pro rata portion of Common Shares tendered by each shareholder. In such situations, shareholders unaffiliated with the Adviser and the Subadviser will not be given priority over affiliated shareholders, whose holdings in the Fund may be significant and may have the effect of diluting third-party shareholders with respect to any repurchase offer.

Liquidity Risk — The Fund intends to invest in illiquid investments, which are securities or other investments that cannot be disposed of within seven days or less in current market conditions without significantly changing their market value. Illiquid investments often can only be resold in privately negotiated transactions with a limited number of purchasers or in a public offering registered under the 1933 Act. There could be considerable delay in either event and, unless otherwise

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
69

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

contractually provided, the Fund's proceeds upon sale may be reduced by the costs of registration or underwriting discounts. The difficulties and delays associated with such transactions could preclude the Fund from realizing a favorable price upon disposition of illiquid investments, and at times might make disposition of such securities impossible.

Valuation Risk — When market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable, the Fund's investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Board. Fair value pricing may require subjective determinations about the value of a security or other asset. As a result, there can be no assurance that fair value pricing will reflect actual market value, and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security or other asset will be materially different from quoted or published prices, from the prices used by others for the same security or other asset and/or from the value that actually could be or is realized upon disposition.

LIBOR Risk — LIBOR, the London Interbank Offered Rate, has historically been the principal floating rate benchmark in the financial markets. However, as a result of longstanding regulatory initiatives, LIBOR is being discontinued. Its discontinuation has affected and will continue to affect the financial markets generally and may also affect the Fund's operations, finances and investments specifically. The date of discontinuation will vary depending on the LIBOR currency and tenor. In March 2021, the UK Financial Conduct Authority (the "FCA"), which is the regulator of the LIBOR administrator, announced that LIBOR settings will cease to be provided by any administrator or will no longer be representative after specified dates, which will be June 30, 2023, in the case of the principal U.S. dollar LIBOR tenors (overnight and one, three, six and 12 month), and December 31, 2021, in all other cases (i.e., one week and two month U.S. dollar LIBOR and all tenors of non-U.S. dollar LIBOR). Thus, many existing LIBOR contracts will transition to another benchmark after June 30, 2023 or, in some cases, have transitioned after December 31, 2021. For some existing LIBOR-based obligations, the contractual consequences of the discontinuation of LIBOR may not be clear. In the United States, there have been various efforts to identify a set of alternative reference interest rates for U.S. dollar LIBOR. The market has generally coalesced around recommendations from the Alternative Reference Rates Committee (the "ARRC") convened by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. The ARRC has recommended that U.S. dollar LIBOR be replaced by rates based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus, in the case of existing LIBOR contracts and obligations, a spread adjustment. As a consequence of the FCA announcement described above (and a related announcement from the LIBOR administrator), the spread adjustments for different tenors of U.S. dollar LIBOR have been set. The FCA and certain U.S. regulators have emphasized that, despite expected publication of U.S. dollar LIBOR through June 30, 2023, no new contracts using U.S. dollar LIBOR should be entered into after December 31, 2021 and that, for certain purposes, market participants should transition away from U.S. dollar LIBOR sooner. Although the foregoing reflects the

First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund | Annual Report | December 31, 2022
70

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

likely timing and certain details and consequences of the LIBOR discontinuation, there is no assurance that LIBOR, of any particular currency and tenor, will continue to be published until any particular date or in any particular form. Financial markets, particularly the trading market for LIBOR-based obligations, may be adversely affected by the discontinuation of LIBOR, the remaining uncertainties regarding its discontinuation, the alternative reference rates that will be used when LIBOR is discontinued (including SOFR-based rates) and other reforms related to LIBOR. There is no assurance that SOFR-based rates, as modified by an applicable spread adjustment, will be the economic equivalent of U.S. dollar LIBOR. SOFR-based rates will differ from U.S. dollar LIBOR, and the differences may be material. As a result of the LIBOR discontinuation, value may be adversely affected. In addition, SOFR-based rates or other alternative reference rates may be an ineffective substitute for LIBOR, resulting in prolonged adverse market conditions for the Fund.

Leverage Risk — The Fund utilizes the Credit Facility to increase its assets available for investment. When the Fund leverages its assets, common shareholders bear the fees associated with the Credit Facility and have the potential to benefit from or be disadvantaged by the use of leverage. The investment advisory fee is also increased in dollar terms from the use of leverage. Consequently, the Fund and the Adviser may have differing interests in determining whether to leverage the Fund's assets. Leverage creates risks that may adversely affect the return for the holders of Common Shares, including the likelihood of greater volatility of net asset value; fluctuations in the interest rate paid for the use of the Credit Facility; increased operating costs, which may reduce the Fund's total return; the potential for decline in the value of an investment acquired through leverage, while the Fund's obligations under such leverage remains fixed; and the Fund is more likely to have to sell investments in a volatile market in order to meet asset coverage or other debt compliance requirements.

To the extent the income or capital appreciation derived from securities purchased with funds received from leverage exceeds the cost of leverage, the Fund's return will be greater than if leverage had not been used; conversely, returns would be lower if the cost of the leverage exceeds the income or capital appreciation derived.

In addition to the risks created by the Fund's use of leverage, the Fund is subject to the risk that it would be unable to timely, or at all, obtain replacement financing if the Credit Facility is terminated. Were this to happen, the Fund would be required to de-leverage, selling securities at a potentially inopportune time and incurring tax consequences. Further, the Fund's ability to generate income from the use of leverage would be adversely affected.

Large Redemptions Risk — If one or more investors in the Fund initiate significant redemptions, it may be necessary to dispose of assets to meet the redemption request. This can make ordinary portfolio management and rebalancing decisions more complicated to implement, can result in the Fund's current expenses being allocated over a smaller asset base, which generally results in an increase in the

71

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Fund's expense ratio, and can accelerate the realization of taxable income and cause the Fund to make taxable distributions to shareholders earlier than the Fund otherwise would have. In addition, under certain circumstances, non-redeeming shareholders may be treated as receiving a disproportionately large taxable distribution during or with respect to such year. The impact of these transactions is likely to be greater in highly volatile markets or less liquid markets or for smaller or newer funds or when a significant investor purchases, redeems or owns a substantial portion of the Fund's shares.

Note 5 — Purchases and Sales of Securities

For the period ended December 31, 2022, purchases and sales of investments, excluding short-term investments, were $544,382,282 and $190,512,390, respectively.

Note 6 — Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions with Related Persons

Pursuant to a management agreement with the Fund (the "Management Agreement"), the Adviser is responsible for the management of the Fund's portfolio. In return for its investment advisory services, the Fund pays the Adviser a monthly fee at the annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily value of the Fund's Managed Assets. The Adviser has entered into a subadvisory agreement with the Subadviser relating to the Fund (the "Subadvisory Agreement"). The Subadvisory Agreement provides that the Subadviser will furnish investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Fund. For its services under the Subadvisory Agreement, the Adviser pays the Subadviser a monthly fee at the annual rate of 0.625% of the average daily value of the Fund's Managed Assets. No advisory fee will be paid by the Fund directly to the Subadviser.

From May 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022, the Adviser and Subadviser agreed to waive all management fees and subadvisory fees payable to them under the Management Agreement (the "Management Fee Waiver"). The Management Fee Waiver is not be subject to any right of future recoupment in favor of the Adviser or Subadviser. During the period ended December 31, 2022, the Adviser waived $1,306,404 in investment advisory fees, which are included under expense waiver on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Effective May 1, 2022, the Adviser has contractually undertaken to waive and/or reimburse certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) ("annual operating expenses") of the Class A, Class A-2 and Class I shareholders are limited to 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00%, respectively, of average net assets (the "Expense Limitations"). This undertaking lasts until April 30, 2024 and may not be terminated during its term without the consent of the Board. The Fund has agreed that each of Class A, Class A-2 and

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Class I will repay the Adviser for fees and expenses waived or reimbursed for the class provided that repayment does not cause annual operating expenses (after the repayment is taken into account) to exceed either: (1) 2.25%, 2.75% and 2.00% of the class' average net assets, respectively; or (2) if applicable, the then-current expense limitations. Any such repayment must be made within three years after the date in which the Fund incurred the fee and/or expense.

From December 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022, the Adviser removed the management fee from the waiver and contractually waived and/or reimbursed certain fees and expenses of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (excluding the Management Fee (because separately waived), interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, dividend and interest expenses relating to short sales, and extraordinary expenses, if any) of the Class A and Class I shareholders are limited to 0.50% and 0.25%, respectively, of average net assets.

During the period ended December 31, 2022, the Adviser waived $1,647,472 in expenses which are included under expense waiver on its Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund has a receivable from the Adviser of $685,138 for reimbursement of expenses, which are included under due from adviser on its Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities. During the period ended December 31, 2022, there were no recoupments made.

For the period ended December 31, 2022, the amounts available for potential future repayment by the Adviser and the expiration schedule are as follows:

			Potential Repayment Amounts Expiring December 31,
	Total Eligible for Recoupment		2023		2024		2025
Class A	$	87,225	$	2,187	$	27,396	$	57,642
Class A-2		277		—		—		277

Total	$	2,918,244	$	216,523	$	1,054,249	$	1,647,472

The Adviser also performs certain non-investment advisory, administrative, accounting, operations, legal, compliance and other services on behalf of the Fund, and in accordance with the Management Agreement, the Fund reimburses the Adviser for costs and expenses (including overhead and personnel costs) associated with such services. These reimbursements may not exceed an annual rate of 0.05% of Fund's average daily net assets. For the period ended December 31, 2022, the Fund reimbursed the Adviser $547,619 in expenses and the adviser waived $839,343 for administrative fees which are included under expense waiver on Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of December 31, 2022 the Fund has a payable to the Adviser of $508,210 for administrative fees which are included under the administrative fees payable on the Consolidated Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. ("JPM"), the Fund's administrator, accounting agent and primary custodian, holds the Fund's portfolio securities and other assets and is responsible for calculating the Fund's net asset value and maintaining the accounting records of the Fund. JPM, as the Funds' administrator, receives annual fees separate from and in addition to the fees it receives for its services as the Funds' custodian.

Independent Trustees are compensated by the Fund for their services. As of December 31, 2022, such compensations are included under Trustees' fees on the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 7 — Plans of Distribution

FEF Distributors, LLC (the "Distributor"), an affiliate of the Adviser and Subadviser, serves as the principal underwriter and distributor of the Fund's Common Shares pursuant to a distribution contract with the Fund.

Common Shares of the Fund are continuously offered through the Distributor and/or certain financial intermediaries that have agreements with the Distributor. Class A Shares, Class A-2 Shares and Class I Shares are sold on a continuous basis at the Fund's NAV per share, plus for Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares only, a maximum front-end sales commission of 2.50%. Investors that purchase $250,000 or more of the Fund's Class A Shares or Class A-2 Shares will not pay any initial sales charge on the purchase. However, unless eligible for a waiver, purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A Shares or Class A-2 Shares will be subject to an early withdrawal charge of 1.50% if the shares are repurchased during the first 12 months after their purchase. Until April 30, 2022, the maximum front-end sales commission for Class A was 3.50%, investors that purchased $1,000,000 or more of the Class A Shares did not pay initial sales charges on the purchase unless eligible for a waiver and purchases of $1,000,000 or more of Class A Shares were subject to an early withdrawal charge of 1.00% if the shares were repurchased during the first 12 months after the purchase.

The Fund has adopted a Distribution and Servicing Plan (the "Plan") for the Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares (effective for Class A-2 Shares on May 31, 2022) of the Fund. Although the Fund is not an open-end investment company, it intends to comply with the terms of Rule 12b-1 as a condition of the Exemptive Relief which permits the Fund to have, among other things, a multi-class structure and distribution and shareholder servicing fees. The Plan permits the Fund to compensate the Distributor for providing or procuring through financial firms, distribution, administrative, recordkeeping, shareholder and/or related services with respect to the Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares, as applicable. The maximum annual rates at which the distribution and/or service fees may be paid under the Distribution and Servicing Plan is 0.25% for Class A Shares and 0.75% for

74

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Class A-2 Shares (calculated as a percentage of the Fund's average daily net assets attributable to the Class A Shares and Class A-2 Shares, respectively). Class I Shares do not pay distribution or servicing fees.

For the period ended December 31, 2022, the distribution and servicing fees incurred by the Fund are disclosed in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Note 8 — Periodic Repurchase Offers

The Fund is a closed-end interval fund, a type of fund that, in order to provide liquidity to shareholders, has adopted a fundamental investment policy to make quarterly offers to repurchase between 5% and 25% of its outstanding Common Shares at net asset value. Subject to applicable law and approval of the Board, for each quarterly repurchase offer, the Fund currently expects to offer to repurchase 5% of the Fund's outstanding Common Shares at net asset value, which is the minimum amount permitted.

The following table summarizes the share repurchases completed during the period ended December 31, 2022:

Quarter End	Share Class		Repurchase Date	Shares Repurchased		Purchase Price Per Share		Aggregate Consideration for Repurchased Shares		Size of Repurchase Offer		% of Outstanding Shares			% of Outstanding Shares Repurchased
12/31/21		I	1/18/22		23,159.297	$	26.19	$	606,541.99		366,365.497		5	%		0.32	%
		A	1/18/22		6,608.676	$	26.22	$	173,279.48		14,452.383		5	%		2.36	%
3/31/22		I	4/18/22		286,761.740	$	25.78	$	7,392,717.59		591,659.805		5	%		2.42	%
		A	4/18/22		332.470	$	25.81	$	8,581.03		21,303.809		5	%		0.08	%
6/30/22		I	7/18/22		335,426.723	$	24.18	$	8,110,618.12		754,036.737		5	%		2.22	%
		A	7/18/22		3,627.382	$	24.21	$	87,818.92		24,078.744		5	%		0.75	%
9/30/22		I	10/17/22		603,723.585	$	23.89	$	14,422,956.45		829,188.747		5	%		3.64	%
		A	10/17/22		8,629.412	$	23.92	$	206,415.54		26,372.044		5	%		1.64	%

The Fund does not currently charge a repurchase fee. However, in the future the Fund may charge a repurchase fee of up to 2.00%, which the Fund would retain to help offset non-de minimis estimated costs related to the repurchase incurred by the Fund, directly or indirectly, as a result of repurchasing Common Shares, thus allocating estimated transaction costs to the shareholder whose Common Shares are being repurchased. The Fund may introduce, or modify the amount of, a repurchase fee at any time. The Fund may also waive or reduce a repurchase fee if the Adviser or Subadviser determines that the repurchase is offset by a corresponding purchase or if for other reasons the Fund will not incur transaction costs or will incur reduced transaction costs.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 10 — Credit Facility

On February 5, 2021, the SPV entered into a secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") with Ally Bank and such other lenders that may become party to the Credit Agreement (the "Lenders"). Pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement, the SPV, of which the Fund is the sole member and designated manager, may borrow money from the Lenders up to a maximum aggregate outstanding amount of $75 million (the "Credit Facility"). The Credit Facility has an initial five-year term, with a three-year revolving period. The Credit Agreement, commonly referred to as an asset-backed facility, is secured by a lien on all of the SPV's assets. In accordance with the 1940 Act, the Fund's borrowings under the Credit Facility will not exceed 33 1/3% of the Fund's Managed Assets at the time of borrowing. On May 18, 2022, the Credit Facility was amended to, among other things, 1) increase the commitment amount from $75 million to $150 million, subject to change by mutual agreement of the SPV and the Lenders; and 2) replace the benchmark rate.

Through May 17, 2022, the per annum rate of interest for borrowings under the Credit Facility was generally based on LIBOR (subject to a 25 bps floor) plus a spread of 2.50%. Beginning May 18, 2022, the per annum rate of interest is generally based on either the SOFR (subject to a 25 bps floor) plus a benchmark adjustment of between 0.10% - 0.15% plus a spread of 2.50%. Commitment fees on the unused portion of the Credit Facility accrue at a rate between 0.50% or 1.00% depending on the utilization levels.

The components of interest expense, average interest rates (i.e., base interest rate in effect plus the spread) and average outstanding balances for the Credit Facility for the year ended December 31, 2022 were as follows:

Stated interest expense	$	2,555,759
Unused commitment fees		225,054
Amortization of deferred financing costs		183,997
Total interest expense	$	2,964,810
Weighted average interest rate		4.32	%
Average borrowings	$	77,499,721
Effective Leverage*		19.56	%

* Effective leverage is percentage of leverage based on total assets minus the sum of liabilities (other than leveraged amount)

Under the Credit Facility, the Fund has agreed to certain covenants and additional investment limitations while the leverage is outstanding. As of December 31, 2022, the Fund is in compliance with these covenants.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the schedule of investments, of First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund and its subsidiary (the "Fund") as of December 31, 2022, the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2022, the statement of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related notes, and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund as of December 31, 2022, the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2022 and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated therein in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2022 by correspondence with

Fund Expenses (unaudited)

Example

As a shareholder of the Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including advisory fees; distribution fees (12b-1) and/or service fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2022 and held for the six-months ended December 31, 2022.

Actual Expenses

The table below titled "Based on Actual Total Return" provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information provided in this table, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. To estimate the expenses you paid on your account, divide your ending account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 ending account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Expenses Paid During the Period".

Fund Expenses (unaudited)

Based on Actual Total Return⁽¹⁾

	Actual Total Return Without Sales Charges⁽²⁾			Beginning Account Date Value		Ending Account Value		Annualized Expense			Expenses Paid for the Period⁽³⁾
First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund
Class A		0.80	%	$	1,000	$	1,008.00		3.23	%	$	16.35

Class I		0.93			1,000		1,009.30		2.97			15.04

(1) For the six-months ended December 31, 2022.

(2) Past performance does not guarantee future results. Assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, if any, at net asset value. Total return is not annualized, as it may not be representative of the total return for the year.

(3) Expenses are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Fund Expenses (unaudited)

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The table that follows titled "Based on Hypothetical Total Return" provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use the information provided in this table to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare the 5% hypothetical example relating to the Fund with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds.

This example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on July 1, 2022 and held for the six-months ended December 31, 2022.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table below are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as front-end or back-end sales charges (loads). Therefore, the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Dividend Reinvestment Plan

Pursuant to the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan (the "Plan"), all Common Shareholders will have all dividends, including any capital gain dividends, reinvested automatically in additional Common Shares by DST Systems. Inc, as agent for the Common Shareholders (the "Plan Agent"), unless the shareholder elects to receive cash. An election to receive cash may be revoked or reinstated at the option of the shareholder. In the case of record shareholders such as banks, brokers or other nominees that hold Common Shares for others who are the beneficial owners, the Plan Agent will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of Common Shares certified from time to time by the record shareholder as representing the total amount registered in such shareholder's name and held for the account of beneficial owners who are to participate in the Plan. Shareholders whose shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or nominee should contact the bank, broker or nominee for details.

Common Shares received under the Plan will be issued to you at their NAV on the ex-dividend date; there is no sales or other charge for reinvestment. You are free to withdraw from the Plan and elect to receive cash at any time by giving written notice to the Plan Agent or by contacting your broker or dealer, who will inform the Fund. Your request must be received by the Fund at least ten days prior to the payment date of the distribution to be effective for that dividend or capital gain distribution.

The Plan Agent provides written confirmation of all transactions in the shareholder accounts in the Plan, including information you may need for tax records. Any proxy you receive will include all Common Shares you have received under the Plan.

Automatically reinvested dividends and distributions are taxed in the same manner as cash dividends and distributions. See "Tax Matters" in the Fund's Prospectus for additional information.

The Fund and the Plan Agent reserve the right to amend or terminate the Plan. There is no direct service charge to participants in the Plan; however, the Fund reserves the right to amend the Plan to include a service charge payable by the participants. If the Plan is amended to include such service charges, the Plan Agent will include a notification to registered holders of Common Shares with the Plan Agent.

Additional information about the Plan may be obtained from the Plan Agent.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) audit fees for professional services rendered to the registrant were approximately $91,000 and $63,600, respectively. Fees included in the audit fees category are those associated with the annual audits of the financial statements and services that are normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings.

(b)	Audit Related Fees:

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate PwC fees for assurance and related services rendered to the registrant were approximately $180,000 and $0, respectively.

For the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the aggregate tax fees billed by PwC for professional services rendered to the registrant were approximately $31,050 and $30,000, respectively.

Fees included in the tax fees category comprise all services performed by professional staff in the independent accountant’s tax division except those services related to audits. This category comprises fees for tax compliance and preparation of tax returns.

(d)	All Other Fees:

In each of the years ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, there were no fees billed by PwC for products and services, other than 4(a)-(c) above, rendered to the registrant.

(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approval by the committee or a designated member thereof. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled audit committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by one audit committee member with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting. Waiver of pre-approval for audit and non-audit services requiring fees of a de minimis amount is not permitted.

(e)(2) No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

(f) According to PwC, for the year ended December 31, 2022, the percentage of hours spent on the audit of the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent year that were attributable to work performed by persons who are not full-time, permanent employees of PwC was 0%.

Item 7.

Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

The Board of Trustees has delegated to the First Eagle Investment Management, LLC ("FEIM" or the "Adviser") the authority to vote proxies received by First Eagle Credit Opportunities Fund (the "Fund") from the companies in which they invest. The Adviser in turn has delegated this authority to First Eagle Alternative Credit, LLC (“FEAC” or the “Subadviser”) which has adopted policies and procedures (collectively, the “Proxy Voting Policy”) regarding the voting of such proxies, which policies have been reviewed and approved by the Board of Trustees as appropriate to their management of the Fund’s assets. It is the policy of the Subadviser to vote proxies in a manner that serves the best interest of the client.

The Proxy Voting Policy provides procedures to address conflicts of interest between the Subadviser and a client with respect to voting proxies. Such conflicts could arise, for example, when the Subadviser or its affiliate has a client or other business relationship with the issuer of the security being voted or with a third-party that has an interest in the vote. A conflict of interest also could arise when the Fund, the Adviser or principal underwriter or any of their affiliates has an interest in the vote.

If the Subadviser becomes aware of a potential conflict of interest with respect to a proxy to be voted for a client, the Proxy Voting Policy requires notification to the Chief Compliance Officer of the Subadviser (the “Subadviser CCO”). The Subadviser CCO then determines whether a material conflict of interest exists and, if so, the appropriate method of resolving the conflict. Such methods may include voting in accordance with the recommendation of a third-party, voting pursuant to pre-determined voting guidelines or, in certain circumstances, consultation with the Board of Trustees. The Subadviser may abstain from voting from time to time when it determines that the costs associated with voting a proxy outweigh the benefits derived from exercising the right to vote or in other situations where voting may not be practical or desirable. These conflicts procedures are intended to reduce, but they will not necessarily eliminate, any influence on the proxy voting by conflicts of interest.

Potential Conflicts of Interests

The Adviser and Subadviser will experience conflicts of interest in connection with the management of the Fund, including the following situations. The following briefly summarizes the material potential and actual conflicts of interest which may arise from the overall investment activity of the Adviser and/or Subadviser, its clients and its affiliates.

The Adviser, the Subadviser and their affiliates may sponsor or manage investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles with similar or overlapping investment strategies. For example, the Adviser or the Subadviser may serve as investment adviser to one or more private funds, registered closed-end funds, separate managed accounts, and collateralized loan obligations (CLO). In addition, the Fund’s officers may serve in similar capacities for one or more private funds, registered closed-end funds, separate managed accounts and CLOs. To the extent, the Adviser, Subadviser and their affiliates determine that an investment is appropriate for us and for one or more other funds, the Adviser and the Subadviser intend to allocate investment opportunities across the entities for which such opportunities are appropriate, consistent with (a) certain restrictions under the 1940 Act and rules thereunder regarding co-investments with affiliates, (b) the requirements of the Advisers Act and (c) the Adviser and Subadviser’s internal conflict of interest and allocation policies.

The Adviser has established policies to ensure that the Fund will generally share equitably with other funds managed by the Adviser or Subadviser or their affiliates in investment opportunities that are suitable for the Fund and such other investment funds.

The Subadviser has established allocation policies to ensure that the Fund will generally share equitably with other credit investment funds managed by the Subadviser or its affiliates within the alternative credit platform in credit investment opportunities that are suitable for the Fund and such other investment funds.

The 1940 Act imposes significant limits on co-investment with affiliates of the Fund, and without an exemptive order the Fund generally would not be permitted to co-invest alongside its affiliates in privately negotiated transactions unless the transaction is otherwise permitted under existing regulatory guidance, such as transactions where price is the only negotiated term, and will not participate in transactions where other terms are negotiable. In situations where co-investment with other entities sponsored or managed by the Adviser, the Subadviser or their affiliates is not permitted or appropriate, such as when there is an opportunity to invest in different securities of the same issuer, the Subadviser will need to decide whether the Fund or such other entity or entities will proceed with the investment. The Subadviser will make these determinations based on its policies and procedures, which will generally require that such opportunities be offered to eligible accounts on a basis that is fair and equitable over time. This reduces the amount of transactions in which the Fund can participate and makes it more difficult for the Fund to implement its investment objective.

The Adviser’s affiliation with The Blackstone Group Inc. and Corsair Capital LLC (collectively, “Blackstone/Corsair”) requires the Adviser to manage conflicts of interest associated with dealings the Fund may have with those businesses or funds, clients or portfolio companies associated with it. For example, should the Adviser or Subadviser wish to cause the Fund to execute portfolio transactions through broker-dealers associated with Blackstone/Corsair, the commercial reasonableness of the brokerage compensation associated with those trades would have to be assessed. Other dealings may be more completely restricted. For example, the Fund may not be able to buy or sell property directly to or from Blackstone/Corsair or their associated accounts. There also may be limits on participation in underwritings or other securities offerings by Blackstone/Corsair or their associated funds, accounts or portfolio companies. The breadth of these affiliations at times may require the Fund to abstain from or restructure an otherwise attractive investment opportunity.

Investments in portfolio companies associated with Blackstone/Corsair may be restricted by the 1940 Act. To the extent such investments are permitted and the Fund invests in such a portfolio company (a portfolio company generally referring to a company owned by private equity funds managed by Blackstone/Corsair), conflicts of interest may arise from the presence of Blackstone/Corsair representatives on the company board or the payment of compensation by the company to Blackstone/Corsair or an affiliate. Moreover, the Adviser or Subadviser could have an incentive to allocate the Fund’s assets to such a portfolio company since affiliates of the Adviser have a direct or indirect financial interest in its success. There also may be instances where Blackstone/Corsair could be involved in bankruptcy proceedings of current investments or of issuers in which the Fund would otherwise invest, with potentially divergent interests as between the Fund and Blackstone/Corsair. The Fund may be forced to sell or hold existing investments (possibly at disadvantageous times or under disadvantageous conditions) as a result of various relationships that Blackstone/Corsair may have or transactions or investments Blackstone/Corsair and their affiliates may make or have made. The inability to transact in any security, derivative or loan held by the Fund could result in significant losses or lost opportunity costs to the Fund.

(a)(3) Compensation Structure of Portfolio Manager(s) or Management Team Members

The Portfolio Managers are employed by the Sub-Adviser, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Adviser. The investment professionals are offered the opportunity to receive a performance bonus, in addition to their annual salary, which is based in part on the performance of firm overall, rather than specific accounts.

The Portfolio Managers are evaluated based on a set of objective performance criteria where a numerical scoring framework is applied. Annual investment performance is a significant component of that score, with the contribution amount varied pursuant to the Portfolio Manager’s experience and seniority. In addition, management finds it valuable and fair to look at all decisions made, not simply the ones that resulted in assets entering or leaving the portfolios. In addition to the Portfolio Manager’s salary and annual bonus, the Adviser offers employees significant benefits. Benefits include 401k company matching, health, dental, disability and life insurance coverage as well as paid vacation time.

Generally, the Portfolio Managers are offered compensation levels that are viewed as competitive within the investment industry and benchmarked to industry data. Specifically, the professional staff is compensated with a base salary in addition to a yearly bonus that is based on company, group and individual performance. The intent of this compensation plan is the long term alignment of interests between the investment team and our clients over a multi-year period. Relative outperformance and client satisfaction over time will often lead to improved fund flows and thus a more robust bonus pool.

(a)(4) Disclosure of Securities Ownership

For the most recently completed fiscal year please provide beneficial ownership of shares of the registrant by each Portfolio Manager or Management Team Member. Please note that this information will only be provided in a dollar range of each individual’s holdings in each investment portfolio (none; $1-$10,000; $10,001-$50,000; $50,001-$100,000; $100,001 to $500,000; $500,001 to $1,000,000; or over $1,000,000).

"Beneficial ownership" should be determined in accordance with rule 16a-1(a)(2) under the Exchange Act (17 CFR 240.16a-1(a)(2)).

As of December 31 2022, no shares of the Fund were beneficially owned by the Portfolio Manager or Management Team Member.
