# | | Denotes that all or a portion of the investment collateralizes the PNC Facility (as defined in Note 7). |
(1) The majority of the investments bear interest at a rate that is permitted to be determined by reference to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (‘‘SOFR’’ or ‘‘SF’’), Euro Interbank Offered Rate (‘‘EURIBOR’’ or ‘‘E’’), Prime (‘‘P’’), Australian Interbank Rate (”AUD” or ”A”), Sterling Overnight Index Average (‘‘SONIA’’ or ‘‘SN’’) or Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA” or “CA”) which reset daily, monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually. For each, the Company has provided the spread over the applicable index and the weighted average current interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2024. Certain investments are subject to an interest rate floor. For fixed rate loans, a spread above a reference rate is not applicable. For positions with multiple outstanding contracts, the spread for the largest outstanding contract is shown. Listed below are the index rates as of March 31, 2024, which was the last business day of the period on which the applicable index rates were determined.

(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
Note 1. Organization
Golub Capital Direct Lending Corporation (“GDLC” and, collectively with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), on June 30, 2021. On July 1, 2021, the date of commencement of operations, the Company entered into subscription agreements (collectively, the “Subscription Agreements”) to sell shares of GDLC's common stock in private placements. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, GDLC has elected to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).
The Company’s investment strategy is to invest primarily in one stop (a loan that combines characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured loans and second lien or subordinated loans and that are often referred to by other middle-market lenders as unitranche loans) and other senior secured loans of U.S. middle-market companies that are, in most cases, sponsored by private equity firms. The Company also selectively invests in second lien and subordinated (a loan that ranks senior only to a borrower’s equity securities and ranks junior to all of such borrower’s other indebtedness in priority of payment) loans of, and warrants and minority equity securities in, primarily U.S. middle-market companies. The Company has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with GC Advisors LLC (the “Investment Adviser”), under which the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company. Under an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) the Company is provided with certain services by an administrator (the “Administrator”), which is currently Golub Capital LLC.

The unaudited interim consolidated financial statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2023, as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Fair value of financial instruments: The Company applies fair value to all of its financial instruments in accordance with ASC Topic 820 - Fair Value Measurement (“ASC Topic 820”). ASC Topic 820 defines fair value, establishes a framework used to measure fair value and requires disclosures for fair value measurements. In accordance with ASC Topic 820, the Company has categorized its financial instruments carried at fair value, based on the priority of the valuation technique, into a three-level fair value hierarchy. Fair value is a market-based measure considered from the perspective of the market participant who holds the financial instrument rather than an entity-specific measure. Therefore, when market assumptions are not readily available, the Company’s own assumptions are set to reflect those that management believes market participants would use in pricing the financial instrument at the measurement date.

The availability of observable inputs can vary depending on the financial instrument and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of product, whether the product is new, whether the product is traded on an active exchange or in the secondary market and the current market conditions. To the extent that the valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised by the Company in determining fair value is greatest for financial instruments classified as Level 3.
Any changes to the valuation methodology are reviewed by management and the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) to confirm that the changes are appropriate. As markets change, new products develop and the pricing for products becomes more or less transparent, the Company will continue to refine its valuation methodologies. See further description of fair value methodology in Note 6. Fair Value Measurements.
Use of estimates: The preparation of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Consolidation: As provided under Regulation S-X and ASC Topic 946, the Company will generally not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Company. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the results of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, GDLC Holdings LLC, GDLC Holdings Coinvest Inc., GDLC Funding LLC (“GDLC Funding”) and GDLC Funding II LLC, in its consolidated financial statements.
Cash and cash equivalents and foreign currencies: Cash and cash equivalents and foreign currencies are highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the date of acquisition. The Company deposits its cash in financial institutions and, at times, such balances exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits.
Foreign currency translation: The Company’s books and records are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars. Non-U.S. dollar transactions during the period are valued at the prevailing spot rates on the applicable transaction date and the related assets and liabilities are revalued at the prevailing spot rates as of period-end.
Net assets and fair values are presented based on the applicable foreign exchange rates and fluctuations arising from the translation of assets and liabilities are included with the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Foreign security and currency transactions involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.
Revenue recognition:
Investments and related investment income: Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and the Company accretes or amortizes such amounts over the life of the loan as interest income. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, interest income included $430 and $801, respectively, of accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, interest income included $181 and $360, respectively, of accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. For the three and six months ended March 31,

(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
2024, the Company received loan origination fees of $1,119 and $4,160, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company received loan origination fees of $498 and $1,350, respectively.
For investments with contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance that generally becomes due at maturity, the Company will not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not collectible. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, investment income included $1,017 and $1,962, respectively, of PIK interest and the Company capitalized PIK interest of $1,009 and $1,907, respectively, into the principal balance of certain debt investments. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, investment income included $503 and $832, respectively, of PIK interest and the Company capitalized PIK interest of $520 and $782, respectively, into the principal balance of certain debt investments.
In addition, the Company generates revenue in the form of amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, consulting fees, administrative agent fees, and prepayment premiums on loans. The Company records these fees as fee income when earned. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, fee income included $0 and $3 from non-recurring prepayment premiums, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, fee income included $0 and $4 from non-recurring prepayment premiums, respectively. All other income is recorded into income when earned.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company received interest and fee income in cash, which excludes capitalized loan origination fees, in the amounts of $12,209 and $19,049, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company received interest and fee income in cash, which excludes capitalized loan origination fees, in the amounts of $6,085 and $11,030, respectively.
Dividend income on equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. The Company has certain preferred equity securities in the portfolio that contain a PIK dividend provision that are accrued and recorded as income at the contractual rates, if deemed collectible. The accrued PIK and non-cash dividends are capitalized to the cost basis of the preferred equity security and are generally collected when redeemed by the issuer. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company recognized PIK and non-cash dividend income of $290 and $551, respectively, which were capitalized into the cost basis of certain preferred equity investments. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recognized PIK and non-cash dividend income of $235 and $448, respectively, which were capitalized into the cost basis of certain preferred equity investments. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company received no cash payments of accrued and capitalized preferred dividends.
Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Each distribution received from limited liability company (“LLC”) and limited partnership (“LP”) investments is evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, the Company will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs and LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the amortized cost basis of the investment. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company did not record any dividend income received in cash, and recorded return of capital distributions received in cash of $0 and $97, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded dividend income received in cash of $0 and $1, respectively, and return of capital distributions received in cash of $36 and $36, respectively.
Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. The Company reports current period changes in fair value of investments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Non-accrual loans: A loan can be left on accrual status during the period the Company is pursuing repayment of the loan. Management reviews all loans that become 90 days or more past due on principal and interest, or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected, for possible placement on non-accrual status. When a loan is placed on non-accrual status, unpaid interest credited to income is reversed. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans are recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid, and, in management’s judgment, payments are likely to remain current. The total fair value of the non-accrual loan was $5 as of March 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had no portfolio company investments on non-accrual status.
Income taxes: The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and operates in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. In order to qualify and be subject to tax as a RIC, among other things, the Company is required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to its stockholders of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code and determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid, for each tax year. The Company has made, and intends to continue to make, the requisite distributions to its stockholders, which will generally relieve the Company from U.S. federal income taxes with respect to all income distributed to its stockholders.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, the Company can determine to retain taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions and distribute such taxable income in the next tax year. The Company may then be required to incur a 4% excise tax on such income. To the extent that the Company determines that its estimated current year annual taxable income, determined on a calendar year basis, could exceed estimated current calendar year dividend distributions, the Company accrues excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, $16 and $91, respectively was recorded for U.S. federal excise tax. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, $38 and $143, respectively, was recorded for U.S. federal excise tax.
The Company accounts for income taxes in conformity with ASC Topic 740 - Income Taxes (“ASC Topic 740”). ASC Topic 740 provides guidelines for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. ASC Topic 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken in the course of preparing the Company’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense or tax benefit in the current year. It is the Company’s policy to recognize accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax benefits in income tax expense. There were no material unrecognized tax benefits or unrecognized tax liabilities related to uncertain income tax positions through March 31, 2024. The Company’s tax returns for the 2020 through 2022 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities.
Dividends and distributions: Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date. Subject to the discretion of and as determined by the Board, the Company intends to authorize and declare ordinary cash distributions based on a formula approved by the Board on a quarterly basis. The amount to be paid out as a dividend or distribution is determined by the Board each quarter and is generally based upon the earnings estimated by management. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least annually, although the Company can retain such capital gains for investment in its discretion.
The Company has adopted a dividend reinvestment plan (“DRIP”) that provides for reinvestment of any distributions the Company declares in cash on behalf of its stockholders, unless a stockholder elects to receive cash. As a result, if the Board authorizes and the Company declares a cash distribution, then stockholders who have not “opted out” of the DRIP will have their cash distribution automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock, rather than receiving the cash distribution. Shares issued under the DRIP will be issued at a price per share equal to the most recent net asset value (“NAV”) per share as determined by the Board (subject to adjustment to the extent required by Section 23 of the 1940 Act).

Deferred debt issuance costs: Deferred debt issuance costs represent fees and other direct incremental costs incurred in connection with the Company’s borrowings. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company had deferred debt issuance costs of $743 and $890, respectively. These amounts are amortized and included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations over the estimated average life of the borrowings. Amortization expense for deferred debt issuance costs for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 was $189 and $361, respectively. Amortization expense for deferred debt issuance costs for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023 was $87 and $162, respectively.
Deferred offering costs: Deferred offering costs consist of fees paid in relation to legal, accounting, regulatory and printing work completed in preparation of equity offerings. Deferred offering costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over three years. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 the Company amortized $31 and $63, respectively, of deferred offering costs, which are included in professional fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company amortized $31 and $64, respectively, of deferred offering costs, which are included in professional fees on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Note 4. Related Party Transactions
Investment Advisory Agreement: Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Investment Adviser manages the day-to-day operations of, and provides investment advisory services to, the Company. The Board most recently reapproved the Investment Advisory Agreement in May 2024. The Investment Adviser is a registered investment adviser with the SEC. The Investment Adviser receives fees for providing services, consisting of two components, a base management fee and an Incentive Fee (as defined below).
The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate equal to 1.00% of the fair value of the average adjusted gross assets of the Company at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters (including assets purchased with borrowed funds, securitization-related assets, unrealized depreciation or appreciation on derivative instruments and cash collateral on deposit for such derivative instruments with custodian, but adjusted to exclude cash and cash equivalents so that investors do not pay the base management fee on such assets) and is payable quarterly in arrears. Additionally, the Investment Adviser voluntarily excludes any assets funded with secured borrowing proceeds from the base management fee calculation. The base management fee is adjusted, based on the actual number of days elapsed relative to the total number of days in such calendar quarter, for any share issuances or repurchases during such calendar quarter. For purposes of the Investment Advisory Agreement, cash equivalents mean U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within 270 days of purchase (which is different than the GAAP definition, which defines cash equivalents as U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within 90 days of purchase). To the extent that the Investment Adviser or any of its affiliates provides investment advisory, collateral management or other similar services to a subsidiary of GDLC, the base management fee will be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (1) the total fees paid to the Investment Adviser by such subsidiary for such services and (2) the percentage of such subsidiary’s total equity, including membership interests and any class of notes not exclusively held by one or more third parties, that is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company. The Investment Adviser has agreed to certain waivers with respect to the base management fee for the periods following July 1, 2021, the initial closing date for the private placement of shares of the Company's common stock, and will irrevocably waive 100% of the base management fee payable

(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement for the period from July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022; 66.7% of the base management fee payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement for the period from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023; and 33.3% of the base management fee payable pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement for the period from July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024.
The base management fee incurred for the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, was $1,257 and $2,255, respectively, and the base management fee irrevocably waived by the Investment Adviser was $419 and $751, respectively . The base management fee incurred for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, was $621 and $1,191, respectively, and the base management fee irrevocably waived by the Investment Adviser was $414 and $794, respectively.
The Incentive Fee consists of three parts: the income component (the “Income Incentive Fee”), the capital gains component (the “Capital Gain Incentive Fee”) and the subordinated liquidation incentive component (the “Subordinated Liquidation Incentive Fee” and, together with the Income Incentive Fee and the Capital Gain Incentive Fee, the “Incentive Fee”).
The Income Incentive Fee is calculated quarterly in arrears based on Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. “Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income” means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the calendar quarter (including the base management fee, taxes, any expenses payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, any expenses of securitizations and any interest expense and dividends paid on any outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the Incentive Fee). Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature such as market discount, debt instruments with PIK interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero coupon securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash.
Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the Income Incentive Fee, it is possible that an Incentive Fee is calculated under this formula with respect to a period in which the Company has incurred a loss. For example, if the Company receives Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income in excess of the hurdle rate (as defined below) for a calendar quarter, the Income Incentive Fee will result in a positive value, and an Income Incentive Fee will be paid even if the Company has incurred a loss in such period due to realized and/or unrealized capital losses unless the payment of such Income Incentive Fee would cause the Company to pay Income Incentive Fees and Capital Gain Incentive Fees on a cumulative basis that exceed the Incentive Fee Cap described below.
Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets (defined as total assets less indebtedness and before taking into account any Incentive Fees payable during the period) at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, is compared to a fixed ‘‘hurdle rate’’ of 1.5% quarterly. If market interest rates rise, it is possible that the Company will be able to invest funds in debt instruments that provide for a higher return, which would increase the Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income and make it easier for the Investment Adviser to surpass the fixed hurdle rate and receive an Income Incentive Fee. The Company’s Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income used to calculate this part of the Incentive Fee is also included in the amount of the Company’s total assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents but including assets purchased with borrowed funds, securitization-related assets, unrealized depreciation or appreciation on derivative instruments and cash collateral on deposit with custodian) used to calculate the base management fee.
The Company calculates the Income Incentive Fee with respect to its Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income quarterly, in arrears, as follows:
•Zero in any calendar quarter in which the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income does not exceed the hurdle rate;
Golub Capital Direct Lending Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
•100% of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income with respect to that portion of such Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than the percentage at which amounts payable to the Investment Adviser pursuant to the Income Incentive Fee equal 10.0% of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income that exceeds the hurdle rate as if a hurdle rate did not apply. This portion of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income that exceeds the hurdle rate is referred to as the ‘‘catch-up’’ provision; and
•10.0% of the amount of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, if any, that exceeds the catch-up provision in any calendar quarter.
The sum of these calculations yields the Income Incentive Fee. This amount is appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during the quarter.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the Income Incentive Fee incurred was $1,058 and $1,896, respectively. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Income Incentive Fee incurred was $493 and $906, respectively.
The second part of the Incentive Fee, the Capital Gain Incentive Fee, equals (a) 10.0% of the Company’s Capital Gain Incentive Fee Base (as defined below), if any, calculated in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or, upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), which commenced with the calendar year ended December 31, 2021, less (b) the aggregate amount of any previously paid Capital Gain Incentive Fees. The Company’s ‘‘Capital Gain Incentive Fee Base’’ equals (1) the sum of (A) realized capital gains, if any, on a cumulative positive basis, (B) all realized capital losses on a cumulative basis and (C) all unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less (2) unamortized deferred debt issuance costs as of the date of calculation, if and to the extent such costs exceed all unrealized capital appreciation on a cumulative basis from the date the Company elected to be a BDC.
•The cumulative aggregate realized capital losses are calculated as the sum of the amounts by which (a) the net sales price of each investment in the Company’s portfolio when sold is less than (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
•The cumulative aggregate realized capital gains are calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive, between (a) the net sales price of each investment in the Company’s portfolio when sold and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
•The aggregate unrealized capital depreciation is calculated as the sum of the differences, if negative, between (a) the valuation of each investment in the Company’s portfolio as of the applicable Capital Gain Incentive Fee calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
•The aggregate unrealized capital appreciation is calculated as the sum of the differences, if positive, between (a) the valuation of each investment in our portfolio as of the applicable calculation date and (b) the accreted or amortized cost basis of such investment.
Realized capital gains and losses include gains and losses on investments, foreign currencies, including gains and losses on borrowings in foreign currencies, derivative contracts and any income tax related to cumulative aggregate realized gains and losses.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not accrue a Capital Gain Incentive Fee. As of both March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there was no Capital Gain Incentive Fee payable as calculated under the Investment Advisory Agreement as described above. Any payment due for a Capital Gain Incentive Fee under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement is calculated in arrears at the end of each calendar year. The Company has not paid any Capital Gain Incentive Fees calculated in accordance with the Investment Advisory Agreement on or prior to March 31, 2024.
In accordance with GAAP, the Company also is required to include the aggregate unrealized capital appreciation on investments in the calculation and accrue a capital gain incentive fee on a quarterly basis as if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement, as applicable. If the Capital Gain Incentive Fee Base, adjusted as required by GAAP to include unrealized capital appreciation, is positive at the end of a period, then GAAP requires the Company to accrue a capital gain incentive fee equal to 10.0% of such amount,
Golub Capital Direct Lending Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
less the aggregate amount of the actual Capital Gain Incentive Fees paid and capital gain incentive fees accrued under GAAP in all prior periods. If such amount is negative, then there is no accrual for such period. The resulting accrual under GAAP in a given period results in additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reversal of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. There can be no assurance that such unrealized capital appreciation will be realized in the future.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the Company accrued a capital gain incentive fee under GAAP of $359. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, the Company did not accrue a capital gain incentive fee under GAAP. Changes in the accrual for the capital gain incentive fee under GAAP are included in incentive fee in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of March 31, 2024, there was $359 of cumulative accrual for capital gain incentive fee under GAAP included in management and incentive fees payable on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. As of September 30, 2023, there was no cumulative accrual for capital gain incentive fee under GAAP included in management and incentive fees payable on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition.
The third part of the Incentive Fee, the Subordinated Liquidation Incentive Fee, equals 10.0% of the net proceeds from a liquidation of the Company in excess of adjusted capital, as calculated immediately prior to liquidation. For purposes of this calculation, (a) ‘‘liquidation’’ includes the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or the acquisition of all or substantially all of the shares of the Company’s common stock in a single or series of related transactions and (b) ‘‘adjusted capital’’ means the net asset value of the Company calculated immediately prior to liquidation in accordance with GAAP less unrealized capital appreciation that would have been subject to the Capital Gain Incentive Fee had capital gain been recognized on the transfer of such assets in the liquidation.
The Company has structured the calculation of the Incentive Fee to include a fee limitation such that the Income Incentive Fee and the Capital Gain Incentive Fee will not be paid at any time if, after such payment, the cumulative Income Incentive Fees and Capital Gain Incentive Fees paid to date would exceed an incentive fee cap (the ‘‘Incentive Fee Cap’’). The Incentive Fee Cap in any quarter is equal to the difference between (a) 10% of Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Income and (b) cumulative incentive fees of any kind paid to the Investment Adviser by the Company since June 30, 2021.
To the extent the Incentive Fee Cap is zero or a negative value in any quarter, no incentive fee would be payable in that quarter. ‘‘Cumulative Pre-Incentive Fee Net Income’’ is equal to the sum of (a) Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income for each period since June 30, 2021 and (b) cumulative aggregate realized capital gains, cumulative aggregate realized capital losses, cumulative aggregate unrealized capital depreciation and cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation since June 30, 2021.
Administration Agreement: Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator furnishes the Company with office facilities and equipment, provides the Company with clerical, bookkeeping and record keeping services at such facilities and provides the Company with other administrative services as the Administrator, subject to review by the Board, determines necessary to conduct the Company’s day-to-day operations. The Company reimburses the Administrator the allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent, fees and expenses associated with performing compliance functions and the Company's allocable portion of the cost of its chief financial officer and chief compliance officer and their respective staffs. The Board reviews such expenses to determine that these expenses, including any allocation of expenses among the Company and other entities for which the Administrator provides similar services, are reasonable and comparable to administrative services charged by unaffiliated third party asset managers. Under the Administration Agreement, the Administrator also provides, on the Company’s behalf, managerial assistance to those portfolio companies to which the Company is required to provide such assistance and will be paid an additional amount based on the cost of the services provided, which amount shall not exceed the amount the Company receives from such portfolio companies.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, included in accounts payable and other liabilities is $157 and $102, respectively, for accrued allocated shared services under the Administration Agreement.

Note 6. Fair Value Measurements
The Company follows ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the assets or liabilities or market and the assets’ or liabilities’ complexity. The Company’s fair value analysis includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Assets and liabilities are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Golub Capital Direct Lending Corporation and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (unaudited)
(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Inputs include significant unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and require significant management judgment or estimation.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or a liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company assesses the levels of assets and liabilities at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities during the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The following section describes the valuation techniques used by the Company to measure different assets and liabilities at fair value and includes the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the assets and liabilities are categorized.
Investments
Level 1 investments are valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued using market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data and quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board, based on input of management, the audit committee and independent valuation firms that have been engaged at the direction of the Board to assist in the valuation of each portfolio investment without a readily available market quotation at least once during a trailing twelve-month period under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with approximately 25% (based on the number of portfolio companies) of the Company’s valuations of debt and equity investments without readily available market quotations subject to review by an independent valuation firm. All investments as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, were valued using Level 3 inputs. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, all money market funds included in cash and cash equivalents were valued using Level 1 inputs.
When determining fair value of Level 3 debt and equity investments, the Company takes into account the following factors, where relevant: the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that affect the price at which similar investments are made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company’s net income before net interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”). A portfolio company’s EBITDA can include pro-forma adjustments for items such as acquisitions, divestitures, or expense reductions. The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. If debt investments are credit impaired, the Company will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, the Company uses a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value.

In addition, for certain debt investments, the Company bases its valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that the Company and others may be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that the Company and others may be willing to accept. The Company generally uses the midpoint of the bid/ask range as its best estimate of fair value of such investment.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that are ultimately received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If the Company were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, the Company could realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded.
The Company’s investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.
The following tables present fair value measurements of the Company’s investments and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023:

The above tables are not intended to be all-inclusive but rather to provide information on significant unobservable inputs and valuation techniques used by the Company.
The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s debt and equity investments are EBITDA multiples, revenue multiples and market interest rates. The Company uses EBITDA multiples and, to a lesser extent, revenue multiples on its debt and equity investments to determine any credit gains or losses. Increases or decreases in either of these inputs in isolation would have resulted in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. The Company uses market interest rates for loans to determine if the effective yield on a loan is commensurate with the market yields for that type of loan. If a loan’s effective yield was significantly less than the market yield for a similar loan with a similar credit profile, then the resulting fair value of the loan may have been lower.
Other Financial Assets and Liabilities
ASC Topic 820 requires disclosure of the fair value of financial instruments for which it is practical to estimate such value. As a result, with the exception of the line item titled “debt” which is reported at cost, all assets and liabilities approximate fair value on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition due to their short maturity. Fair value of the Company’s debt is estimated using Level 3 inputs by discounting remaining payments using applicable implied market rates.
The following are the carrying values and fair values of the Company’s debt as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023:

Note 7. Borrowings
In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, the Company is currently allowed to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. The Company has not sought or obtained any approval necessary to be subject to the reduced asset coverage requirements available to BDCs pursuant to Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act, which permits a BDC to have asset coverage of 150%, or a ratio of total consolidated assets to outstanding indebtedness of 2:1 as compared to a maximum of 1:1 under the 200% asset coverage requirement under the 1940 Act. As of March 31, 2024, the Company’s asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 299.4%.
PNC Facility: On March 21, 2022, the Company and GDLC Funding entered into a revolving credit and security agreement (the “PNC Facility”) with PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”), as administrative agent, collateral agent and a lender and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as structuring agent. On August 16, 2022, the Company entered into a Joinder and First Amendment on the PNC Facility to add GDLCF, as a Borrower and Golub Onshore GP 3, LLC (“Feeder GP”), the general partner to GDLCF, which is controlled by the Investment Adviser. As of March 31, 2024, the PNC Facility allowed the Company to borrow an aggregate amount of up to $220,000, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions, with a stated maturity date of March 21, 2025. Through a series of amendments, most recently on November 15, 2023, the Company amended the PNC Facility with PNC Bank to, among other things, increase the borrowing capacity from $170,000 to $220,000 and update the applicable margin range of 2.00% to 2.40% such that borrowings under the PNC Facility will bear interest at the applicable base rate plus a margin ranging from 2.10% to 2.45%, depending on the degree of uncalled capital commitments coverage of the PNC Facility’s borrowing base versus the assets of GDLC Funding securing the facility.
As of March 31, 2024, the PNC Facility bears interest, at the Company’s election and depending on the currency of the borrowing, of either the Eurocurrency Rate, €STR, SONIA, the Daily Simple SOFR, the Term SOFR Rate, or the Base Rate (each, as defined in the PNC Facility) plus a margin ranging from 2.10% to 2.45% depending on the degree of uncalled capital commitments coverage of the PNC Facility’s borrowing base versus the assets of GDLC Funding securing the facility. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding debt of $178,520 and $109,347, respectively, under the PNC Facility.
For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the components of interest expense, cash paid for interest expense, annualized average stated interest rates and average outstanding balances for the PNC Facility were as follows:

Note 8. Commitments and Contingencies
Commitments: As of March 31, 2024, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $153,441, including $32,321 of commitments on undrawn revolvers. As of September 30, 2023, the Company had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $53,557, including $11,692 of commitments on undrawn revolvers.
Indemnifications: In the normal course of business, the Company enters into contracts and agreements that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnifications. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as these involve future claims against the Company that have not occurred. The Company expects the risk of any future obligations under these indemnifications to be remote.
Off-balance sheet risk: Off-balance sheet risk refers to an unrecorded potential liability that may result in a future obligation or loss, even though it does not appear on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. The Company may enter into derivative instruments that contain elements of off-balance sheet market and credit risk. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there were no commitments outstanding for derivative contracts. Derivative instruments can be affected by market conditions, such as interest rate and foreign currency volatility, which could impact the fair value of the derivative instruments. If market conditions move against the Company, it may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the derivative instruments and may realize a loss. The Company minimizes market risk through monitoring its investments and borrowings.

(In thousands, except shares and per share data)
Concentration of credit and counterparty risk: Credit risk arises primarily from the potential inability of counterparties to perform in accordance with the terms of the contract. The Company in the future may engage in derivative transactions with counterparties. In the event that the counterparties do not fulfill their obligations, the Company may be exposed to risk.
The risk of default depends on the creditworthiness of the counterparties or issuers of the instruments. The Company’s maximum loss that it could incur related to counterparty risk on its derivative instruments is the value of the collateral for that respective derivative instrument. It is the Company’s policy to review, as necessary, the credit standing of each counterparty.
Legal proceedings: In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to legal and regulatory proceedings that are generally incidental to its ongoing operations. While there can be no assurance of the ultimate disposition of any such proceedings, the Company does not believe any disposition will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Overview
We are an externally managed, closed-end, non-diversified management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, we have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. As a business development company and a RIC, we are also subject to certain constraints, including limitations imposed by the 1940 Act and the Code. We were formed in September 2020 as a Delaware limited liability company and converted to a Maryland corporation effective July 1, 2021.
Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in one stop (a loan that combines characteristics of traditional first lien senior secured loans and second lien or subordinated loans and that are often referred to by other middle-market lenders as unitranche loans) and other senior secured loans of U.S. middle-market companies. We also selectively invest in second lien and subordinated loans of, and warrants and minority equity securities in U.S. middle-market companies. We intend to achieve our investment objective by (1) accessing the established loan origination channels developed by Golub Capital, a leading lender to U.S. middle-market companies with over $65.0 billion in capital under management as of January 1, 2024, (2) selecting investments within our core middle-market company focus, (3) partnering with experienced private equity firms, or sponsors, in many cases with whom Golub Capital has invested alongside in the past, (4) implementing the disciplined underwriting standards of Golub Capital and (5) drawing upon the aggregate experience and resources of Golub Capital.
Our investment activities are managed by GC Advisors and supervised by our board of directors of which a majority of the members are independent of us, GC Advisors and its affiliates.
Under an investment advisory agreement, or the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay GC Advisors an annual base management fee based on our average adjusted gross assets as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance. The Investment Advisory Agreement was most recently approved by our board of directors in May 2024. Under an administration agreement, or the Administration Agreement, we are provided with certain administrative services by an administrator, or the Administrator, which is currently Golub Capital LLC. Under the Administration Agreement, we have agreed to reimburse the Administrator for our allocable portion (subject to the review and approval of our independent directors) of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement.
We seek to create a portfolio that includes primarily one stop and other senior secured loans by primarily investing approximately $5.0 million to $30.0 million of capital, on average, in the securities of U.S. middle-market companies. We also selectively invest more than $30.0 million in some of our portfolio companies and generally expect that the size of our individual investments will vary proportionately with the size of our capital base.
We generally invest in securities that have been rated below investment grade by independent rating agencies or that would be rated below investment grade if they were rated. These securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. In addition, many of our debt investments have floating interest rates that reset on a periodic basis and typically do not fully pay down principal prior to maturity, which may increase our risk of losing part or all of our investment.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, our portfolio at fair value was comprised of the following: | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | As of March 31, 2024 | | As of September 30, 2023 | | |

Total | | $ | 535,940 | | | 100.0 | % | | $ | 320,486 | | | 100.0 | % | | | | |
One stop loans include loans to technology companies undergoing strong growth due to new services, increased adoption and/or entry into new markets. We refer to loans to these companies as recurring revenue loans. Other targeted characteristics of recurring revenue businesses include strong customer revenue retention rates, a diversified customer base and backing from growth equity or venture capital firms. In some cases, the borrower’s high revenue growth is supported by a high level of discretionary spending. As part of the underwriting of such loans and consistent with industry practice, we adjust our characterization of the earnings of such borrowers for a reduction or elimination of such discretionary expenses, if appropriate. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, one stop loans included $113.2 million and $77.8 million, respectively, of recurring revenue loans at fair value.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had debt and equity investments in 185 and 151 portfolio companies, respectively.
The following table shows the weighted average income yield and weighted average investment income yield of our earning portfolio company investments, which represented 100% of our debt investments and certain preferred equity investments, as well as the annualized total return based on our average net asset value, in each case, and our net investment income - return on equity for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the six months ended March 31, 2024 and March 31, 2023:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three months ended | | Six months ended |
| March 31, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 | | March 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2023 |
Weighted average income yield(1)* | 12.1% | | 12.3% | | 12.2% | | 10.8% |
Weighted average investment income yield(2)* | 12.5% | | 12.7% | | 12.6% | | 11.1% |
Total return based on average net asset value(3)* | 16.8% | | 12.3% | | 14.8% | | 10.3% |

(2) Represents income from interest, fees, interest earned on cash, accrued PIK and non-cash dividend income, and amortization of capitalized fees and discounts, divided by the daily average fair value of earning portfolio company investments, and does not represent a return to any investor in us.
(3) Total return based on average net asset value is calculated as (a) the net increase/(decrease) in net assets resulting from operations divided by (b) the daily average of total net assets. Total return does not include sales load.
(4) Net investment income - return on equity is calculated as (a) net investment income after excise tax divided by (b) the daily average of total net assets.
As of March 31, 2024, GDLC has earned an inception-to-date internal rate of return, or IRR, of 12.1% for stockholders taken as a whole. An individual stockholder’s IRR may vary based on the timing of their capital transactions. For the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, GDLC earned a fiscal year-to-date IRR of 18.9% and 10.6%, respectively, for stockholders taken as a whole. The IRR is the annualized effective compound rate of return that brings a series of cash flows to the current value of the cash invested. The IRR was computed based on the actual dates of cash inflows (share issuances, including share issuances through the DRIP), outflows (capital distributions), the stockholders’ net asset value, or NAV, at the end of the period and distributions declared and payable at the end of the period (residual value of the stockholders’ NAV and distributions payable as of each measurement date).
Revenues: We generate revenue in the form of interest and fee income on debt investments and capital gains and distributions, if any, on portfolio company investments that we originate or acquire. Our debt investments, whether in the form of senior secured, one stop, second lien or subordinated loans, typically have a term of three to seven years and bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities. In some cases, our investments provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest. The principal amount of loans and any accrued but unpaid interest generally become due at the maturity date. In addition, we generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, administrative agent fees and consulting fees. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans as fee income. For additional details on revenues, see “Critical Accounting Policies - Revenue Recognition.”
We recognize realized gains or losses on investments based on the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the amortized cost basis of the investment or derivative instrument, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We record current period changes in fair value of investments and derivative instruments that are measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Expenses: Our primary operating expenses include the payment of fees to GC Advisors under the Investment Advisory Agreement and interest expense on our outstanding debt. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions including:
•reimbursement to GC Advisors of organizational and offering expenses up to an aggregate amount of $0.7 million;
•calculating our NAV (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firm);
•fees and expenses incurred by GC Advisors payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, in monitoring financial and legal affairs for us and in monitoring our investments and performing due diligence on our prospective portfolio companies or otherwise relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments, which fees and expenses include, among other items, due diligence reports, appraisal reports, any studies commissioned by GC Advisors and travel and lodging expenses, except reimbursement amounts waived by GC Advisors;
•expenses related to unsuccessful portfolio acquisition efforts;
•administration fees and expenses, if any, payable under the Administration Agreement (including payments based upon our allocable portion of the Administrator’s overhead in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and the allocable portion of the cost of our chief compliance officer, chief financial officer and their respective staffs);
•fees payable to third parties, including agents, consultants or other advisors, relating to, or associated with, evaluating and making investments in portfolio companies, including costs associated with meeting financial sponsors;
•transfer agent, dividend agent and custodial fees and expenses;
•U.S. federal and state registration and franchise fees;
•U.S. federal, state and local taxes;
•independent directors’ fees and expenses;
•costs of preparing and filing reports or other documents required by the SEC or other regulators;
•costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to stockholders, including printing costs;
•costs associated with individual or group stockholders;
•costs associated with compliance under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, or the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
•our allocable portion of any fidelity bond, directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums;
•direct costs and expenses of administration, including printing, mailing, long distance telephone, copying, secretarial and other staff, independent auditors and outside legal costs;
•proxy voting expenses; and
•all other expenses incurred by us or the Administrator in connection with administering our business.
We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.
We believe that these administrative expenses approximate the amount of ongoing fees and expenses that we would be required to pay in connection with a traditional secured credit facility. Our common stockholders indirectly bear all of these expenses.

On April 1, 2024, we entered into subscription agreements with additional stockholders totaling $12.0 million in the aggregate.
On April 23, 2024, we entered into an amendment to the PNC Facility to, among other things, replace the applicable reference rate with respect to borrowings denominated in Canadian Dollars, to the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“CORRA”), and otherwise conform the PNC Facility to accommodate CORRA as the reference rate for certain borrowings denominated in Canadian dollars. The other material terms of the PNC Facility were unchanged.

Consolidated Results of Operations
In addition to our analysis of the year-to-date reporting period compared to the year-to-date prior period, we are presenting our analysis for the reporting quarter compared to the immediately preceding quarter as we believe this comparison will provide a more meaningful analysis of our business as our results are largely driven by market changes, not seasonal business activity.
Consolidated operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
2 On May 3, 2024, our board of director’s accelerated the payment date to June 17, 2024, for the previously declared April 2024 monthly distribution to stockholders of record as of April 19, 2024.

Net income can vary substantially from period to period for various reasons, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and unrealized appreciation and depreciation. In addition, as we have continued to raise and deploy capital, we have experienced significant growth in total assets, total liabilities and net assets. As a result, quarterly and year-to-date comparisons of operating results may not be meaningful.
Investment Income
Investment income increased from the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024 by $3.1 million, primarily due to an increase in interest income due to an increase in the average earning debt investments balance of $109.4 million.
Investment income increased from the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024 by $14.9 million, primarily due to an increase in interest and payment in kind (“PIK”) interest income due to an increase in the average earning debt investments balance of $208.7 million coupled with rising interest base rates.
The annualized income yield by debt security type for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 and the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 are as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| Three months ended | | Six months ended | | |
| March 31, 2024 | | December 31, 2023 | | | | March 31, 2024 | | March 31, 2023 | | |
Senior secured | 11.4% | | 11.3% | | | | 11.4% | | 9.4% | | |
One stop | 12.0% | | 12.2% | | | | 12.1% | | 10.7% | | |
Second lien | 13.4% | | 14.3% | | | | 14.1% | | 12.5% | | |
Subordinated debt | 13.8% | | 13.4% | | | | 13.4% | | 12.7% | | |
Income yields on senior secured and one stop loans remained relatively flat for the three months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2023. Income yields on senior secured and one stop loans increased for the six months ended March 31, 2024 as compared to the six months ended March 31, 2023, primarily due to rising interest base rates. Our loan portfolio is partially insulated from a drop in floating interest rates as 97.4% of the loan portfolio at fair value is subject to an interest rate floor. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the weighted average base rate floor of our loans was 0.77% and 0.73%, respectively.
As of March 31, 2024, we have second lien investments in two portfolio companies and subordinated debt investments in four portfolio companies as shown in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments. Due to the limited number of second lien and subordinated debt investments, income yields on second lien and subordinated debt investments can be significantly impacted by the addition, subtraction or refinancing of one investment.

Interest Expense
Interest and other debt financing expenses, including amortization of debt issuance costs, increased by $0.8 million from the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding of $40.5 million.
Interest and other debt financing expenses, including amortization of debt issuance costs, increased by $3.7 million from the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in average debt outstanding of $70.1 million as well as rising interest base rates on borrowings from our floating rate debt facility and, to a lesser extent, increased interest rate spreads made in connection with amendments on our PNC Facility. For more information about our outstanding borrowings for the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, including the terms thereof, see “Note 7. Borrowings” in the notes to our consolidated financial statements and the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section below.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the effective annualized average interest rate, which includes amortization of debt financing costs and non-usage facility fees, on our total debt was 8.1% and 8.2% , respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, the effective annualized average interest rate, which includes amortization of debt financing costs and non-usage facility fees, on our total debt was 8.2% and 6.3%, respectively.
The effective average interest rate increased for the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024 was relatively flat and increased for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024 primarily due to rising interest base rates on our borrowings from our floating rate debt facility, and, to a lesser extent, increased interest rate spreads made in connection with amendments on our PNC Facility.
Management Fees
The base management fee, net of waiver, increased as a result of an increase in average gross assets for both the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024.
Incentive Fees
The incentive fee payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement consists of two parts: (1) the Income Incentive Fee and (2) the Capital Gains Incentive Fee.
The Income Incentive Fee increased by $0.2 million from the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase in Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements) and a greater rate of return on the value of our net assets driven by net funds growth. The Income Incentive Fee increased by $1.0 million from the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024, primarily as a result of an increase in Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income (as defined in Note 4 to our consolidated financial statements) and a greater rate of return on the value of our net assets driven by net funds growth, the impact of rising interest base rates and an increase in accretion income during the first two quarters of fiscal year 2024.
For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we were fully through the catch-up provision of the Income Incentive Fee calculation. The Income Incentive Fee as a percentage of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Investment Income, net of waiver, was 10.0% for both the three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, there was no Capital Gain Incentive Fee payable as calculated under the Investment Advisory Agreement. In accordance with GAAP, we are required to include the aggregate unrealized capital appreciation on investments in the calculation and accrue a capital gain incentive fee as if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the Capital Gain Incentive Fee actually payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement. As of March 31, 2024, there was $0.4 million in capital gain incentive fee accrual under GAAP included in management and incentive fees payable on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Condition. As of September 30, 2023, there was no capital gain incentive fee accrual calculated in accordance with GAAP. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, the accrual of capital gain incentive fee under GAAP was $0.4 million. For the three months ended December 31, 2023 and the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, there was no accrual of capital gain incentive fee under GAAP.
Any payment due under the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement is calculated in arrears at the end of each calendar year. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, no Capital Gain Incentive Fees have been payable as calculated under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
Professional Fees, Administrative Service Fee, and General and Administrative Expenses
In total, professional fees, the administrative service fee, and general and administrative expenses remained relatively flat from the three months ended December 31, 2023 to the three months ended March 31, 2024. In total, professional fees, the administrative service fee, and general and administrative expenses increased by $0.2 million from the six months ended March 31, 2023 to the six months ended March 31, 2024, primarily due to higher administrative expenses associated with servicing a growing portfolio.
The Administrator pays for certain expenses incurred by us. These expenses are subsequently reimbursed in cash. Total expenses reimbursed to the Administrator during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 were $0.2 million and $0.2 million, respectively. Total expenses reimbursed to the Administrator during the six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 were $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, included in accounts payable and other liabilities were $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of expenses paid on behalf of us by the Administrator.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
During the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net realized gain on investment transactions of less than $0.1 million, primarily driven by realized gains from translation of foreign currency amounts and transactions into U.S. dollars. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, we had a net realized gain on investment transactions of less than $0.1 million, primarily driven by realized gains from translation of foreign currency amounts and transactions into U.S. dollars that were partially offset by a realized loss on the partial redemption of an equity investment.
During the six months ended March 31, 2024, we had a net realized gain on investment transactions of less than $0.1 million, primarily driven by the translation of foreign currency amounts and transactions into U.S. dollars that were, partially offset by a realized loss on the partial redemption of an equity investment. During the six months ended March 31, 2023, we had a net realized gain on investment transactions of less than $0.1 million, primarily driven by the translation of foreign currency amounts and transactions into U.S. dollars.
For the three months ended March 31, 2024, we had $5.0 million in unrealized appreciation on 104 portfolio company investments, which was offset by $0.4 million in unrealized depreciation on 86 portfolio company investments. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we had $1.5 million in unrealized appreciation on 63 portfolio company investments, which was offset by $1.1 million in unrealized depreciation on 113 portfolio company investments.
Unrealized appreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily resulted from fair valuing recent originations up to or near par and an increase in fair value due to the rise in market prices of portfolio company investments. Unrealized depreciation for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023 primarily resulted from amortization of discounts during each quarter on recently originated loans and a modest decrease in market prices of certain portfolio company investments.
For the six months ended March 31, 2024, we had $5.8 million in unrealized appreciation on 116 portfolio company investments, which was offset by $0.8 million in unrealized depreciation on 74 portfolio company investments. For the six months ended March 31, 2023, we had $2.0 million in unrealized appreciation on 96 portfolio company investments, which was offset by $2.4 million in unrealized depreciation on 113 portfolio company investments.
Unrealized appreciation for the six months ended March 31, 2024 primarily resulted from improved performance of certain portfolio companies and fair valuing recent originations up to or near par. Unrealized appreciation for the six months ended March 31, 2023 resulted from loan repayments and fair valuing recent originations up to par. Unrealized depreciation for the six months ended March 31, 2024 primarily resulted from amortization of discounts on recently originated loans and a modest decrease in market prices of certain portfolio company investments. Unrealized depreciation for the six months ended March 31, 2023 primarily resulted from decreases in the fair value across our portfolio company investments due to incremental spread widening in the market during the first quarter
of the 2023 fiscal year and, to a lesser extent, modest deterioration in the credit performance of certain portfolio companies.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
For the six months ended March 31, 2024, we experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents and foreign currencies of $16.2 million. During the period, we used $196.7 million in operating activities, primarily as a result of fundings of portfolio investments of $211.8 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from principal payments of portfolio investments of $5.4 million. During the same period, cash provided by financing activities was $180.5 million, primarily driven by borrowings on debt of $101.1 million and proceeds from the issuance of common shares of $127.1 million, that were partially offset by repayments of debt of $32.5 million and distributions paid of $15.1 million.
For the six months ended March 31, 2023, we experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents and foreign currencies of $0.6 million. During the period, we used $48.1 million in operating activities, primarily as a result of fundings of portfolio investments of $59.5 million, which was partially offset by proceeds from principal payments of portfolio investments of $3.2 million. During the same period, cash provided by financing activities was $47.6 million, primarily driven by borrowings on debt of $41.7 million and proceeds from the issuance of common shares of $28.9 million, that were partially offset by repayments of debt of $20.0 million and distributions paid of $2.8 million.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had $10.8 million and $27.7 million, respectively, of cash and cash equivalents. In addition, as of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had $2.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively, of foreign currencies. Cash and cash equivalents and foreign currencies are available to fund new investments, pay operating expenses and pay distributions.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had investor capital subscriptions totaling $480.6 million and $450.6 million, respectively, of which $359.1 million and $232.0 million, respectively, had been called and contributed, leaving $121.4 million and $218.6 million, respectively, of uncalled investor capital subscriptions.
Revolving Debt Facilities
PNC Facility - On March 21, 2022, we entered into the PNC Facility (as defined in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements). As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we were permitted to borrow up to $220.0 million and $170.0 million, respectively, at any one time. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had outstanding debt of $178.5 million and $109.3 million, respectively, under the PNC Facility.
Adviser Revolver - As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we were permitted to borrow up to $70.0 million at any one time outstanding under the Adviser Revolver. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had no outstanding debt under the Adviser Revolver.
Asset Coverage, Contractual Obligations, Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Other Liquidity Considerations
In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are currently allowed to borrow amounts such that our asset coverage, as defined in the 1940 Act, is at least 200% after such borrowing. We have not sought or obtained approval to reduce our asset coverage ratio as permitted by and subject to the requirements of Section 61(a)(2) of the 1940 Act and, as a result, remain subject to the 200% asset coverage requirement under Section 61(a)(1) of the 1940 Act. We currently intend to continue to target a GAAP debt-to-equity ratio between 0.35x to 0.65x. As of March 31, 2024, our asset coverage for borrowed amounts was 299.4%.
As of March 31, 2024, we had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $153.4 million, including $32.3 million of unfunded commitments on revolvers. As of September 30, 2023, we had outstanding commitments to fund investments totaling $53.6 million, including $11.7 million of unfunded commitments on revolvers. There is no guarantee that these amounts will be funded to the borrowing party now or in the future. The unfunded commitments relate to loans with various maturity dates, but the entire amount was eligible for funding to the
borrowers as of March 31, 2024 subject to the terms of each loan’s respective credit agreement. A summary of maturity requirements for our principal borrowings under the PNC Facility and the Adviser Revolver as of March 31, 2024 are included in Note 7 of our consolidated financial statements. We did not have any other material contractual payment obligations as of March 31, 2024. As of March 31, 2024, we believe that we had sufficient assets and liquidity to adequately cover future obligations under our unfunded commitments based on historical rates of drawings upon unfunded commitments and cash balances that we maintain, availability under our PNC Facility and Adviser Revolver, as well as ongoing principal repayments on debt investment assets and uncalled investor capital subscriptions.
Although we expect to fund the growth of our investment portfolio through the net proceeds from capital calls on existing and future investor capital subscriptions and through our dividend reinvestment plan as well as future borrowings, to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, we cannot assure you that our efforts to raise capital will be successful. In addition, from time to time, we can amend, refinance, or enter into new leverage facilities and securitization financings, to the extent permitted by applicable law. In addition to capital not being available, it also could not be available on favorable terms. To the extent we are not able to raise capital on what we believe are favorable terms, we will focus on optimizing returns by investing capital generated from repayments into new investments we believe are attractive from a risk/reward perspective. Furthermore, to the extent we are not able to raise capital and are at or near our targeted leverage ratios, we expect to receive smaller allocations, if any, on new investment opportunities under GC Advisors’ allocation policy.
Portfolio Composition, Investment Activity and Yield
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we had investments in 185 and 151 portfolio companies, respectively, with a total fair value of $535.9 million and $320.5 million, respectively.

As of March 31, 2024, 97.4% and 97.3% of our debt portfolio at fair value and at amortized cost, respectively, had interest rate floors that limit the minimum applicable interest rates on such loans. As of September 30, 2023, 96.4% and 96.3% of our debt portfolio at both fair value and at amortized cost had interest rate floors that limit the minimum applicable interest rates on such loans.
As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the portfolio median1 earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, for our portfolio companies was $71.4 million and $63.9 million, respectively. The portfolio median EBITDA is based on the most recently reported trailing twelve-month EBITDA received from the portfolio company.
As part of the monitoring process, GC Advisors regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our investments and rates each of them based on an internal system developed by Golub Capital and its affiliates. This system is not generally accepted in our industry or used by our competitors. It is based on the following categories, which we refer to as GC Advisors’ internal performance ratings: | | | | | | | | |
| | |
Internal Performance Ratings |
Rating | | Definition |
5 | | Involves the least amount of risk in our portfolio. The borrower is performing above expectations, and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable. |
4 | | Involves an acceptable level of risk that is similar to the risk at the time of origination. The borrower is generally performing as expected, and the risk factors are neutral to favorable. |
3 | | Involves a borrower performing below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased somewhat since origination. The borrower could be out of compliance with debt covenants; however, loan payments are generally not past due. |
2 | | Involves a borrower performing materially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has increased materially since origination. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments could be past due (but generally not more than 180 days past due). |
1 | | Involves a borrower performing substantially below expectations and indicates that the loan’s risk has substantially increased since origination. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. Loans rated 1 are not anticipated to be repaid in full and we will reduce the fair market value of the loan to the amount we anticipate will be recovered. |
Our internal performance ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of any of our investments.
1 The portfolio median EBITDA is based on our portfolio of debt investments and excludes (i) portfolio companies with negative or de minimis EBITDA, (ii) investments designated as recurring revenue loans and (iii) portfolio companies with any loans on non-accrual status.
For any investment rated 1, 2 or 3, GC Advisors will increase its monitoring intensity and prepare regular updates for the investment committee, summarizing current operating results and material impending events and suggesting recommended actions.
GC Advisors monitors and, when appropriate, changes the internal performance ratings assigned to each investment in our portfolio. In connection with our valuation process, GC Advisors and our board of directors review these internal performance ratings on a quarterly basis.

Distributions
We intend to make periodic distributions to our stockholders as determined by our board of directors. For additional details on distributions, see “Income taxes” in Note 2 to our consolidated financial statements.
We may not be able to achieve operating results that will allow us to make distributions at a specific level or to increase the amount of our distributions from time to time. In addition, the asset coverage requirements applicable to us as a business development company under the 1940 Act could limit our ability to make distributions. If we do not distribute a certain percentage of our income annually, we will suffer adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences, including the possible loss of our ability to be subject to tax as a RIC. We cannot assure stockholders that they will receive any distributions.
Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations can differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences are permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. For example, permanent differences in classification result from the treatment of distributions paid from short-term gains as ordinary income dividends for tax purposes. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.
To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any tax year, a portion of those distributions could be deemed a return of capital to our stockholders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Thus, the source of a distribution to our stockholders could be the original capital invested by the stockholder rather than our income or gains. Stockholders should read any written disclosure accompanying a distribution payment carefully and should not assume that the source of any distribution is our ordinary income or gains.
We have adopted an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if we declare a distribution, our stockholders’ cash distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock unless a stockholder specifically “opts out” of our dividend reinvestment plan. If a stockholder opts out, that stockholder will receive cash distributions. Although distributions paid in the form of additional shares of our common stock will generally be subject to U.S. federal, state and local taxes in the same manner as cash distributions, stockholders participating in our dividend reinvestment plan will not receive any corresponding cash distributions with which to pay any such applicable taxes.

•We have entered into the Adviser Revolver with GC Advisors in order to have the ability to borrow funds on a short-term basis.
•As of March 31, 2024, GGP Class B-P, LLC, an affiliate of GC Advisors, had an aggregate commitment to us of $102.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, we have issued 6,806,927.360 shares of our common stock to GGP Class B-P, LLC in exchange for aggregate capital contributions totaling $102.0 million. We have also issued 214,587.492 shares to GGP Class B-P, LLC through the DRIP.
•As of March 31, 2024, GDLC Feeder Fund L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, whose general partner is controlled by GC Advisors, has an aggregate commitment to us of $250.0 million. As of March 31, 2024, we have issued 9,125,353.655 shares of our common stock to GDLC Feeder Fund, L.P., in exchange for aggregate capital contributions totaling $136.8 million.
GC Advisors also sponsors or manages, and expects in the future to sponsor or manage, other investment funds, accounts or investment vehicles (together referred to as “accounts”) that have investment mandates that are similar, in whole and in part, with ours. For example, GC Advisors presently serves as the investment adviser to Golub Capital BDC, Inc., or GBDC, a publicly-traded business development company (Nasdaq: GBDC), Golub Capital BDC 3, Inc., or GBDC 3, Golub Capital Direct Lending Unlevered Corporation, or GDLCU, Golub Capital BDC 4, Inc., or GBDC 4 and Golub Capital Private Credit Fund, or GCRED, all of which are business development companies that primarily focus on investing in one stop and other senior secured loans. In addition, most of our officers and directors serve in similar capacities for GBDC, GBDC 3, GDLCU, GBDC 4 and GCRED. If GC Advisors and its affiliates determine that an investment is appropriate for us, GBDC, GBDC 3, GDLCU, GBDC 4, GCRED and other accounts, depending on the availability of such investment and other appropriate factors, and pursuant to GC Advisors’ allocation policy, GC Advisors or its affiliates could determine that we should invest side-by-side with one or more other accounts. We do not intend to make any investments if they are not permitted by applicable law and interpretive positions of the SEC and its staff, or if they are inconsistent with GC Advisors’ allocation procedures.
In addition, we have adopted a formal code of ethics that governs the conduct of our and GC Advisors’ officers, directors and employees. Our officers and directors also remain subject to the duties imposed by both the 1940 Act and the General Corporation Law of the State of Maryland.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and revenues and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the following items as critical accounting policies.
Fair Value Measurements
We value investments for which market quotations are readily available at their market quotations. However, a readily available market value is not expected to exist for many of the investments in our portfolio, and we value these portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors under our valuation policy and process.
Valuation methods include comparisons of the portfolio companies to peer companies that are public, determination of the enterprise value of a portfolio company, discounted cash flow analysis and a market interest rate approach. The factors that are taken into account in fair value pricing investments include: available current market data, including relevant and applicable market trading and transaction comparables; applicable market yields and multiples; security covenants; call protection provisions; information rights; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments, its earnings and discounted cash flows and the markets in which it does business; comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public; comparable merger and acquisition transactions; and the principal market and enterprise values. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, we will consider the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate the private equity valuation. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments can differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and differ materially from values that are ultimately received or settled.
Our board of directors is ultimately and solely responsible for determining, in good faith, the fair value of investments that are not publicly traded, whose market prices are not readily available on a quarterly basis or any other situation where portfolio investments require a fair value determination.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, our board of directors undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
Our quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company investment being initially valued by the investment professionals of GC Advisors responsible for credit monitoring. Preliminary valuation conclusions are then documented and discussed with our senior management and GC Advisors. The audit committee of our board of directors reviews these preliminary valuations. At least once annually, the valuation for each portfolio investment, subject to a de minimis threshold, is reviewed by an independent valuation firm. The board of directors discusses valuations and determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio in good faith.
Determination of fair values involves subjective judgments and estimates. Under current accounting standards, the notes to our consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations, and any change in such valuations, on our consolidated financial statements.
We follow ASC Topic 820 for measuring fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received in the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Where available, fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters, or derived from such prices or parameters. Where observable prices or inputs are not available, valuation models are applied. These valuation models involve some level of management estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the assets or liabilities or market and the assets’ or liabilities’ complexity. Our fair value analysis includes an analysis of the value of any unfunded loan commitments. Assets and liabilities are categorized for disclosure purposes based upon the level of judgment associated with the inputs used to measure their value. The valuation hierarchical levels are based upon the transparency of the inputs to the valuation of the asset or liability as of the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2: Inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and inputs that are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.
Level 3: Inputs include significant unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities. The inputs into the determination of fair value are based upon the best information available and may require significant management judgment or estimation.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an asset’s or a liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and we consider factors specific to the asset or liability. We assess the levels of assets and liabilities at each measurement date, and transfers between levels are recognized on the actual date of the event or change in circumstances that caused the transfers. There were no transfers among Level 1, 2 and 3 of the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities during three and six months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023. The following section describes the valuation techniques used by us to measure different assets and liabilities at fair value and includes the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the assets and liabilities are categorized.
Valuation of Investments
Level 1 investments are valued using quoted market prices. Level 2 investments are valued using market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data and quoted market prices for similar assets and liabilities. Level 3 investments are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by our board of directors, based on input of management, the audit committee and independent valuation firms that have been engaged at the direction of our board of directors to assist in the valuation of each portfolio investment without a readily available market quotation at least once during a trailing twelve-month period under a valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. This valuation process is conducted at the end of each fiscal quarter, with approximately 25% (based on the number of portfolio companies) of our valuations of debt and equity investments without readily available market quotations subject to review by an independent valuation firm. All investments as of both March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, were valued using Level 3 inputs. As of both March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, all money market funds included in cash and cash equivalents were valued using Level 1 inputs.
When determining fair value of Level 3 debt and equity investments, we may take into account the following factors, where relevant: the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, comparisons to publicly traded securities, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets generally that may affect the price at which similar investments may be made and other relevant factors. The primary method for determining enterprise value uses a multiple analysis whereby appropriate multiples are applied to the portfolio company’s EBITDA. A portfolio company’s EBITDA may include pro-forma adjustments for items such as acquisitions, divestitures, or expense reductions. The enterprise value analysis is performed to determine the value of equity investments and to determine if debt investments are credit impaired. If debt investments are credit impaired, we will use the enterprise value analysis or a liquidation basis analysis to determine fair value. For debt investments that are not determined to be credit impaired, we use a market interest rate yield analysis to determine fair value.
In addition, for certain debt investments, we may base our valuation on indicative bid and ask prices provided by an independent third-party pricing service. Bid prices reflect the highest price that we and others may be willing to pay. Ask prices represent the lowest price that we and others may be willing to accept. We generally use the midpoint of the bid/ask range as our best estimate of fair value of such investment.
Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of Level 3 investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a market existed for such investments and may differ materially from the values that may ultimately be received or settled. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded instruments. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize significantly less than the value at which such investment had previously been recorded.
Our investments are subject to market risk. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value due to market changes. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the investments are traded.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, as recently amended, the board of directors of a registered investment company or BDC is permitted to delegate to a valuation designee, which could be its investment adviser, the responsibility to determine fair value of investments in good faith subject to the oversight of the board. Our board of directors has determined to continue its determination of fair value of our investments for which market quotations are not readily available in accordance with our valuation policies and procedures and has not designated GC Advisors or any other entity as a valuation designee.
In connection with each sale of shares of our common stock, we make a determination that we are not selling shares of our common stock at a price below the then-current net asset value per share of common stock at the time at which the sale is made or otherwise in violation of the 1940 Act. GC Advisors will consider the following factors, among others, in making such determination:
•The net asset value of our common stock disclosed in the most recent periodic report filed with the SEC;
•Its assessment of whether any change in the net asset value per share of our common stock has occurred (including through the realization of gains on the sale of portfolio securities) during the period beginning on the date of the most recently disclosed net asset value per share of our common stock and ending two days prior to the date of the sale; and
•The magnitude of the difference between the sale price of the shares of common stock and management’s assessment of any change in the net asset value per share of our common stock during the period discussed above.
Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Liabilities
The fair value of our debt is estimated using Level 3 inputs by discounting remaining payments using comparable market rates or market quotes for similar instruments at the measurement date, if available.
Revenue Recognition:
Our revenue recognition policies are as follows:
Investments and Related Investment Income: Interest income is accrued based upon the outstanding principal amount and contractual interest terms of debt investments. Premiums, discounts, and origination fees are amortized or accreted into interest income over the life of the respective debt investment. For investments with contractual PIK interest, which represents contractual interest accrued and added to the principal balance that generally becomes due at maturity, we do not accrue PIK interest if the portfolio company valuation indicates that the PIK interest is not likely to be collectible. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance, administrative agent fees, consulting fees and prepayment premiums on loans and record these fees as fee income when earned. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized, and we accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We record prepayment premiums on loans as fee income. Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded as dividend income on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the portfolio company and are expected to be collected. We have certain preferred equity securities in our portfolio that contain a PIK dividend provision that are accrued and recorded as income at the contractual rates, if deemed collectible. The accrued PIK and non-cash dividends are capitalized to the cost basis of the preferred equity security and are generally collected when redeemed by the issuer. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Distributions received from limited liability company, or LLC, and limited partnership, or LP, investments are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. Generally, we will not record distributions from equity investments in LLCs or LPs as dividend income unless there are sufficient accumulated tax-basis earnings and profits in the LLC or LP prior to the distribution. Distributions that are classified as a return of capital are recorded as a reduction in the cost basis of the investment.
We account for investment transactions on a trade-date basis. Realized gains or losses on investments are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the disposition and the cost basis of investment, without regard to unrealized gains or losses previously recognized. We report changes in fair value of investments from the prior period that is measured at fair value as a component of the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investment transactions in our Consolidated Statements of Operations and fluctuations arising from the translation of foreign exchange rates on investments in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Non-accrual loans: Loans may be left on accrual status during the period we are pursuing repayment of the loan. Management reviews all loans that become past due 90 days or more on principal and interest or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected for possible placement on non-accrual status. We generally reverse accrued interest when a loan is placed on non-accrual. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment. We restore non-accrual loans to accrual status when past due principal and interest is
paid and, in our management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. The total fair value of our non-accrual loan was approximately $5,000 as of March 31, 2024. As of September 30, 2023, we had no portfolio company investments on non-accrual status.
Income taxes: We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code and operate in a manner so as to qualify for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. In order to be subject to tax as a RIC, we are required to meet certain source of income and asset diversification requirements, as well as timely distribute to our stockholders dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code and determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid, for each tax year. We have made and intend to continue to make the requisite distributions to our stockholders, which will generally relieve us from U.S. federal income taxes.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may choose to retain taxable income in excess of current year dividend distributions and would distribute such taxable income in the next tax year. We may then be required to incur a 4% excise tax on such income. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income, determined on a calendar year basis, could exceed estimated current calendar year dividend distributions, we accrue excise tax, if any, on estimated excess taxable income as taxable income is earned. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2024, we recorded $16,000 and $91,000, respectively, for U.S. federal excise tax. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, we recorded $38,000 and $143,000, respectively, for U.S. federal excise tax.
Because federal income tax regulations differ from GAAP, distributions in accordance with tax regulations may differ from net investment income and realized gains recognized for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified within capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. For example, permanent differences in classification may result from the treatment of distributions paid from short-term gains as ordinary income dividends for tax purposes. Temporary differences arise when certain items of income, expense, gain or loss are recognized at some time in the future.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Many of the loans in our portfolio have floating interest rates, and we expect that our loans in the future may also have floating interest rates. These loans are usually based on floating SOFR or another base rate and typically have interest rate reset provisions that adjust applicable interest rates under such loans to current market rates on a daily, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The loans that are subject to floating SOFR or another base rate are also typically subject to a minimum base rate, or floor, that we charge on our loans if the current market rates are below the respective floors. As of March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the weighted average floor on loans subject to floating interest rates was 0.77% and 0.73%, respectively. In addition, The PNC Facility bears interest at the Company’s election and depending on the currency of the borrowing, of either the Daily SOFR, the Term SOFR, €STR, SONIA, Eurocurrency or the Base Rate (each, as defined in the PNC Facility), plus a margin ranging from 2.10% to 2.45% depending on the degree of uncalled capital commitments coverage of the PNC Facility’s borrowing base versus investment asset coverage of the borrowing base. The Adviser Revolver has a floating interest rate provision equal to the short-term Applicable Federal Rate. We expect that other credit facilities into which we enter in the future could have floating interest rate provisions.
Assuming that the unaudited interim Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition as of March 31, 2024 were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter interest rate sensitivity as of such date, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates.

(1)Assumes applicable three-month base rate as of March 31, 2024, with the exception of SONIA and Prime that utilize the March 31, 2024 rate.
Although we believe that this analysis is indicative of our sensitivity to interest rate changes as of March 31, 2024, it does not adjust for changes in the credit market, credit quality, the size and composition of the assets in our portfolio and other business developments, including borrowings under the Adviser Revolver, PNC Facility or other borrowings, that could affect net increase in net assets resulting from operations, or net income. Accordingly, we can offer no assurances that actual results would not differ materially from the analysis above.
We could in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using standard hedging instruments such as interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts to the limited extent permitted under the 1940 Act and applicable commodities laws. While hedging activities may insulate us against adverse changes in interest rates, they may also limit our ability to participate in the benefits of lower interest rates with respect to the investments in our portfolio with fixed interest rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As of March 31, 2024 (the end of the period covered by this report), management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, concluded that, at the end of such period, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that it will detect or uncover failures within the Company to disclose material information otherwise required to be set forth in the Company’s periodic reports.
There has not been any change in our internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
