CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This report contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial risks and uncertainties. Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and undue reliance should not be placed thereon. These forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are current expectations, estimates and projections of Fidelity Private Credit Company LLC (the “Fund,” “we,” “us” or “our”) and/or Fidelity Diversifying Solutions LLC (“FDS” or the “Adviser”) about the Fund, our current and prospective portfolio investments, our industry, our beliefs and opinions, and our assumptions. “Fund,” “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Fidelity Direct Lending Fund, LP, a Delaware limited partnership for periods prior to consummation of the BDC Conversion (as defined below), refers to Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC, a Delaware limited liability company for periods following the BDC Conversion. “BDC Conversion” refers to the conversion by operation of law of Fidelity Direct Lending, LP to Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC by the filing of a Certificate of Conversion to a limited liability company on January 31, 2023, and the Fund’s subsequent election to be regulated as a BDC. On March 11, 2024, the Fund was renamed Fidelity Private Credit Company LLC. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “seek,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “target,” or “believe” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or the actual performance of the Fund may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements, including without limitation:
•our future operating results;
•our business prospects and the prospects of our portfolio companies;
•our ability to raise capital;
•geo-political conditions, including revolution, insurgency, terrorism or war, including those arising out of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and Israel;
•the ability of our portfolio companies to achieve their objectives;
•our current and expected financing arrangements and investments;
•changes in the general interest rate environment;
•the adequacy of our cash resources, financing sources and working capital;
•the timing and amount of cash flows, distributions and dividends, if any, from our portfolio companies;
•our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties;
•actual and potential conflicts of interest with the Adviser and its affiliates;
•the elevating levels of inflation, and its impact on our portfolio companies and on the industries in which we invest;
•the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its effect on the industries in which we may invest;
•the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments;
•the ability of the Adviser to identify suitable investments and to monitor and administer our investments;
•the ability of the Adviser and its affiliates to attract and retain highly talented professionals;
•our ability to maintain our qualification as a business development company (“BDC”) and as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”);
•the impact on our business of U.S. and international financial reform legislation, rules and regulations;
•the effect of changes in tax laws and regulations and interpretations thereof; and
•the tax status of the enterprises in which we may invest.
Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. Moreover, we assume no duty and do not undertake to update the forward-looking statements, except as required by applicable law. You are advised to consult any additional disclosures that we make directly to you or through reports that we have filed or in the future file with the SEC including annual reports on Form 10-K, registration statements on Form 10, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K. Because we are an investment company, the forward-looking statements and projections contained in this report are excluded from the safe harbor protection provided by Section 21E of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 Act, as amended (the “1934 Act”).

Fidelity Private Credit Company LLC
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(unaudited)
Note 1. Organization
Fidelity Private Credit Company LLC (formerly Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC) (the “Fund”) is a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company. The Fund was formed on September 16, 2021, as a Delaware limited partnership named Fidelity Direct Lending Fund L.P. and elected, on January 31, 2023, to amend its legal structure to a Delaware limited liability company, adopt a fiscal year end of December 31 and was renamed Fidelity Private Credit Central Fund LLC. On March 11, 2024, the Fund was renamed Fidelity Private Credit Company LLC. The Fund has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with Fidelity Diversifying Solutions LLC (“FDS” or the “Adviser”), a Delaware limited liability company. FDS is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is an affiliate of FMR LLC (“FMR”) and its subsidiaries. Prior to May 10, 2023, FIAM LLC was the Adviser. Prior to January 31, 2023, FIAM Institutional Funds Manager, LLC (“FIAMIFM”), a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of FIAM Holdings Corp., was the general partner of the Fund (“General Partner”).
Effective January 31, 2023, the General Partner and the Limited Partners became unit holders of the Fund (“Unit Holder”) and the interests in the Limited Partnership were converted into Common Units of the Fund. Within these Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements, all references to Unit Holder and net assets prior to January 31, 2023 are referring to Partners and Partners’ Capital, respectively.
On June 1, 2023, the Fund elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The Fund intends to elect to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) for its taxable year ending December 31, 2023 and subsequent taxable years.
The Fund’s investment objective is to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing primarily in directly originated loans to private companies but also in liquid credit investments, like broadly syndicated loans, and other select private credit investments. The Fund generally seeks to invest in loans that carry variable (i.e., “floating”) interest rates. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in private credit investments. Specific private investments may include: (a) directly originated first lien loans, senior secured revolving lines of credit, term loans and delayed draw term loans, (b) directly originated second lien, last out senior, secured or unsecured mezzanine term loans and delayed draw term loans, (c) club deals (investments generally comprised of a small group of lenders), and broadly syndicated leveraged loans (investments generally arranged or underwritten by investment banks or other intermediaries), and (d) other debt (collectively referred to as “Private Credit”). The Adviser may also invest to a lesser degree in equity linked instruments (may include debt with warrants, preferred equity investments, or equity co-investments). The Adviser and/or affiliates may lead and structure the transaction as sole-lender, as the agent of a club credit facility (a group of similar direct lenders that invest in the same tranches), or may participate as a non-agent investor in a large club or syndicated transactions. In order to provide liquidity for unit repurchases, the Fund intends to maintain an allocation to syndicated loans and other liquid investments.
Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of the significant accounting and reporting policies used in preparing the consolidated financial statements.
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). The Fund is an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946 and pursuant to Regulation S-X. The functional currency is the U.S. Dollar and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. These consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the period presented. Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation and this had no effect on the Fund’s consolidated financial position or the consolidated results of operations as previously reported.
Consolidation
The Fund will generally consolidate any wholly-owned, or substantially wholly-owned, subsidiary when the design and purpose of the subsidiary is to act as an extension of the Fund’s investment operations and to facilitate the execution of the Fund’s investment strategy. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Fund consolidated the financial position and results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries in its consolidated financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Since the Fund is an investment company, portfolio investments held by the Fund are not consolidated into the consolidated financial statements. The portfolio investments held by the Fund (including investments held by consolidated subsidiaries) are included on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as investments at fair value.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Actual amounts may ultimately differ from those estimates and the differences could be material.
Income Taxes
The Fund was formerly classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. While the Fund was classified as a partnership no provisions for income taxes were recorded in the consolidated financial statements since the Fund was not subject to income tax. Tax obligations relating to the Fund’s activities were the responsibility of the Unit Holders.
Effective June 6, 2023, the Fund elected to be classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and the Fund intends to elect to be treated as a RIC under the Code for its taxable period starting June 6, 2023 and ended December 31, 2023 and all periods thereafter. So long as the Fund maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its Unit Holders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Fund would represent obligations of the Fund’s investors and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Fund.
The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.
The Fund estimates tax liabilities for certain of the Fund’s investments held through wholly-owned subsidiaries taxed as corporations which may be subject to federal and state taxes. The tax liability may differ materially depending on conditions when these investments earn income or are disposed. The estimated tax liability of $1,079,996 and $0 as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively, is included in Other accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase in estimated tax liability of $1,079,996 is included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no estimated tax liability.
The Fund files a U.S. federal income tax return, in addition to state and local tax returns as required. The Fund’s U.S. federal income tax returns are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for a period of three fiscal years after they are filed. State and local tax returns may be subject to examination for an additional fiscal year depending on the jurisdiction.
To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Fund must distribute to its Unit Holders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses.
In addition, based on the excise tax distribution requirements, the Fund will be subject to a 4% nondeductible U.S. federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Fund distributes in a timely manner in each taxable year an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in prior years. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Fund that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Fund incurred no U.S. federal income taxes, including excise taxes. For all periods prior to June 6, 2023, the Fund was treated as a partnership for tax purposes and was not subject to U.S. federal income tax.
Deferred Financing Costs
The Fund records costs related to issuance of revolving credit facilities as deferred financing costs on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. These costs are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method through interest expense on the consolidated statements of operations over the life of the related credit facility.
Investment Valuation
The Fund values its investments, upon which its NAV is based, in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value and prescribes disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee responsible for valuing all of the Fund’s investments, including making fair valuation determinations as needed. The Adviser has established a fair value committee (the “Fair Value Committee”) to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern activities of the Fair Value Committee and the performance of functions required to determine the fair value of a fund’s investments in good faith. These functions include periodically assessing and managing material risks associated with fair value determinations, selecting, applying, reviewing, and testing fair value methodologies, monitoring for circumstances that may necessitate the use of fair value, and overseeing and evaluating pricing services used.
In accordance with the Adviser’s policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, investments, including debt securities, that are publicly traded but for which no readily available market quotations exist are generally valued on the basis of information furnished by an independent third-party pricing service that uses a valuation matrix which incorporates both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, the Adviser regularly performs price verification procedures, engages in oversight activities with respect to third-party pricing sources used and issues challenges as necessary to independent pricing services or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the valuation procedures. The Adviser does not adjust the prices unless it has a reason to believe market quotations or prices received from third-party pricing services are not reflective of the fair value of an investment.
Investments that are not publicly traded or whose current market prices or quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the Adviser in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s Board-approved policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. In determining fair value of the Fund’s loan investments the types of factors that the Fair Value Committee may take into account generally include comparison to publicly-traded securities including such factors as yield, maturity and measures of credit quality, the enterprise value of the 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 and other relevant factors.
The Fund has engaged an independent valuation firm to prepare month-end valuation recommendations for investments for which market quotations are not readily available as of the last calendar day of each month. The independent valuation firm undertakes a full analysis of the investments and provides estimated fair values for such investments to the Adviser. The independent valuation firm also provides analyses to support their valuation methodology and calculations. The Adviser’s Fair Value Committee reviews and approves each valuation recommendation and confirms it has been calculated in accordance with the Board-approved policies and procedures. The Fair Value Committee manages the Fund’s fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters. The Board may determine to modify its designation of the Adviser as valuation designee, relating to any or all Fund investments, at any time.
Investment Transactions
For financial reporting purposes, the Fund’s investment holdings and net assets include trades executed through the end of the last business day of the period. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds received (excluding prepayment fees, if any) and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method and is recorded within net realized gain (loss) on the consolidated statements of operations.
Interest Income
Interest income is accrued as earned. Interest income includes coupon interest and amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities. Commitment fees, loan origination fees, original issue discount (“OID”) and market discount or premium are capitalized into the cost of the investment to which it applies and accreted into interest income. For the Fund’s investments in revolving credit facilities and delayed draw term loans, the cost basis of the investment is adjusted for any market discount or OID on the total balance committed. The fair value is also adjusted for price appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion. As a result, the purchase of commitments not fully funded may result in a negative cost and fair value until funded. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt instrument, any prepayment premium and any unamortized discount or premium are recognized through interest income.
Dividend Income
Dividend income earned on the Fund’s equity and mutual fund investments is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable and are expected to be collected. Dividend income is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies or on the ex-dividend date for mutual funds.
Fee Income
The Fund earns certain fees in connection with its direct lending underwriting activities. These fees are in addition to interest payments earned and may include amendment fees, consent fees and syndication fees. Certain fees such as structuring fees and syndication fees are recorded as other income when earned. Administrative agent fees received by the Fund are recorded as other income when received.
Non-Accrual Policy
Debt obligations may be placed on non-accrual status and related interest income may be reduced by ceasing current accruals and writing off interest receivables when the collection of all or a portion of interest has become doubtful based on consistently applied procedures. A debt obligation is removed from non-accrual status when the issuer resumes interest payments or when collectability of interest is reasonably assured. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no loans in the portfolio were on non-accrual status.
Cash
Cash represents deposits maintained with the Fund’s custodian bank. At times, deposits may be in excess of federally insured limits. The Fund has not experienced any losses and does not believe it is exposed to any significant credit risk on such deposits.
Expenses
Expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Expense estimates are accrued in the period to which they relate and adjustments are made when actual amounts are known.
Foreign Currency
Foreign-denominated assets, including investment securities, and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate at period end. Purchases and sales of securities, income and dividends received and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the transaction date.
Unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency holdings and non-investment assets and liabilities attributable to the changes in foreign currency exchange rates are included in the net change in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on foreign currency translation on the consolidated statements of operations. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency holdings and non-investment assets and liabilities attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are included in realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions on the consolidated statements of operations. The portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates is included in realized gain (loss) on investments and net change in unrealized appreciation on investments, respectively, on the consolidated statements of operations.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07 Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. Effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, the amendments enhance required disclosures of segment information for public entities on an annual and interim basis. The ASU allows for early adoption with updates applied retrospectively. Management is currently evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements.
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09 Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. Effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024 for public business entities (PBEs), and December 15, 2025 for entities other than PBEs, the amendment requires greater disaggregation of income tax disclosures related to the income tax rate reconciliation for PBEs and income taxes paid for all entities. The ASU allows for early adoption and management can elect to apply the amendments on a prospective or retrospective basis. Management is currently evaluating the impact on the consolidated financial statements.
Note 3. Unit Holder Transactions
Effective January 31, 2023, the Fund has the authority to issue an unlimited number of units. Units have no par value.

The Private Offering
Prior to the BDC Conversion, the Fund entered into separate subscription agreements (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) with investors who were admitted as limited partners. Following the BDC Conversion, the Fund continues to enter into separate Subscription Agreements with a number of investors who will be admitted as Unit Holders providing for the private placement of the Fund’s Units. Each subscriber makes a capital commitment (“Capital Commitment”) to purchase Units of the Fund pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. Subscribers are required to make capital contributions (“Capital Contributions”) to purchase Units of the Fund each time the Fund delivers a drawdown notice.
The first closing date occurred on December 9, 2021, on which initial capital was contributed by investors. Additional closings are expected to occur from time to time as determined by the Fund (each, a “Subsequent Closing”). Capital Commitments will be drawn in such amounts and proportions as will be required by the Fund in its sole discretion, provided however, the Fund expects drawdowns to generally be made pro rata in accordance with each Unit Holder’s unfunded Capital Commitments.
In connection with each drawdown, Unit Holders will receive a number of Units corresponding to the Capital Contribution, with such Units issued at a per-share price that will be determined prior to the issuance of such Units and in accordance with the 1940 Act, subject to a determination by the Board (including any committee thereof) or the officers of the Fund that such offer price is not below the Fund’s then current net asset value per Unit of the Fund (“NAV”) as required pursuant to the 1940 Act. Capital Commitments will generally be drawn from Unit Holders by the Fund as needed, upon 10 business days’ prior written notice, in such amounts as will be required by the Fund in its sole discretion.
Effective March 11, 2024, the Board approved the Fund entering into the First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement which made eligible to invest any “accredited investor” (as enumerated in Rule 502 under Regulation D of the Securities Act) who have committed to a strategic relationship with Fidelity. In addition, the Board approved the Fund entering into a Placement Agent Agreement with Fidelity Distributors Company LLC, with respect to the private placement of its Units as described in Note 4. Expenses and Transactions with Affiliates.
Additionally, the Fund intends to commence drawdowns of capital commitments of investors who make capital commitments after March 1, 2024 only after the Fund has drawn down the capital commitments of investors admitted prior to March 1, 2024 by 90%.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
The Fund has adopted an “opt out” distribution reinvestment plan (“DRIP”), which became effective upon the filing of the election to be regulated as a BDC. As a result of adopting the plan, if the Board authorizes, and the Fund declares, a cash dividend or distribution, Unit Holders will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional Units, rather than receiving cash, unless they “opt out.” Unit Holders who make an affirmative election to “opt out” will receive their distributions in cash. Units issued pursuant to the DRIP will not reduce a Unit Holder’s Capital Commitments to the Fund.
The Fund may terminate the DRIP upon notice in writing to each participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any distribution by the Fund.
Repurchase Program
The Fund has implemented a share repurchase program under which, subject to market conditions and the approval of the Board, the Fund may repurchase Units on a quarterly basis pursuant to written tenders by Unit Holders. The Fund currently expects to make quarterly tender offers of up to 10% per year beginning in 2025. However, the Fund may begin making tender offers sooner in its discretion. With respect to any such repurchase offer, Unit Holders tendering Units must do so by a date specified in the notice describing the terms of the repurchase offer. No Unit Holder or other person holding Units acquired from a Unit Holder has the right to require the Fund to repurchase any Units.
There is no minimum portion of a Unit Holder’s Units which must be repurchased in any repurchase offer. The Fund has no obligation to repurchase Units at any time; any such repurchases will only be made at such times, in such amounts and on such terms as may be determined by the Fund, in its sole discretion. In determining whether the Fund should offer to repurchase Units, the Fund will consider the timing of such an offer, as well as a variety of operational, business and economic factors. In determining whether to accept a recommendation to conduct a repurchase offer at any such time, the Fund will consider the following factors, among others:
•whether any Unit Holders have requested to tender Units to the Fund;
•the liquidity of the Fund’s assets (including fees and costs associated with redeeming or otherwise withdrawing from investment funds);
•the investment plans and working capital and reserve requirements of the Fund;
•the relative economies of scale of the tenders with respect to the size of the Fund;
•the existing conditions of the securities markets and the economy generally, as well as political, national or international developments or current affairs;
•any anticipated tax consequences to the Fund of any proposed repurchases of Units; and
•the recommendations of the Adviser.
The Fund will repurchase Units from Unit Holders pursuant to written tenders on terms and conditions that the Adviser determines are fair to the Fund and to all Unit Holders. Notice will be provided to Unit Holders describing the terms of the offer, containing information Unit Holders should consider in deciding whether to participate in the repurchase opportunity and containing information on how to participate.
Units that have not been outstanding for at least two years will be repurchased at 98% of such net asset value (the “Early Repurchase Deduction”). The Early Repurchase Deduction may be waived at the Fund’s discretion. The Fund does not impose any charges in connection with repurchases of Units.
If a repurchase offer is oversubscribed by Unit Holders who tender Units, the Fund will repurchase a pro rata portion by value of the Units tendered by each Unit Holder, extend the repurchase offer, or take any other action with respect to the repurchase offer permitted by applicable law. The Fund also has the right to repurchase all of a Unit Holder’s Units at any time if the aggregate value of such Unit Holder’s Units is, at the time of such compulsory repurchase, less than the minimum initial investment applicable for the Fund.

Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement
The Fund entered into an Amended and Restated Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Adviser. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement for the first twelve months commencing upon the Fund’s election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, which occurred on June 1, 2023, the Adviser, will be obligated to advance all of the Fund’s Other Operating Expenses to the effect that such expenses do not exceed 0.50% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund’s average net assets (referred to as a “Required Expense Payment”). Any Required Expense Payment must be paid by the Adviser to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to the Adviser or its affiliates. “Other Operating Expenses” means the Fund’s professional fees (including accounting, legal, and auditing fees), custodian and transfer agent fees and third party valuation agent fees, insurance costs, director fees, administration fees, and other general and administrative expenses.
Upon the termination of Adviser’s obligation to make Required Expense Payments, the Adviser may elect to pay, at such times as the Adviser determines, certain expenses on the Fund’s behalf, provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest expense or Unit Holder servicing fees of the Fund (referred to as a “Voluntary Expense Payment” and together with a Required Expense Payment, the “Expense Payments”). Any Voluntary Expense Payment that the Adviser has committed to pay must be paid by the Adviser to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds no later than 45 days after such commitment was made in writing, and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to the Adviser or its affiliates.
In consideration of the Adviser’s agreement to make Expense Payments, the Fund has agreed to repay the Adviser in the amount of any Expense Payment subject to the limitation that a repayment to the Adviser (an “Adviser Reimbursement”) will be made only if and to the extent that: (i) it is payable not more than three years from the date on which the applicable Expense Payment was made by the Adviser; and (ii) the Adviser Reimbursement does not cause the Fund’s total annual operating expenses (on an annualized basis and net of any Advisor Reimbursements received by the Fund during such fiscal year) during the applicable quarter to exceed the Expense Limitation (as applicable). The Adviser may waive its right to receive all or a portion of any Adviser Reimbursement in any particular calendar month. The Fund’s obligation to make an Adviser Reimbursement shall automatically become a liability of the Fund on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent the Adviser has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month.
The Adviser will look only to the assets of the Fund for its performance under the Expense Support Agreement and for any claims for payment. No directors, officers, employees, agents, or Members of the Fund will be personally liable for performance by the Fund under the Expense Support Agreement.
This Expense Support Agreement shall continue in force until November 30, 2024. This Expense Support Agreement shall renew automatically for successive one-year terms, unless either the Fund or the Adviser determines to terminate it after the Initial Term and so notifies the other party.
As of May 10, 2023, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive its right to receive any Reimbursement Payment for any Excess Operating Funds incurred in any month prior to revocation. Any such amounts shall not be considered unreimbursed Expense Payments reimbursable in future months pursuant to the terms of the Expense Support Agreement. This voluntary arrangement can be terminated at any time, upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Fund.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, $216,925 was recognized and recorded in expense support on the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, $98,388 was recognized and recorded in expense support on the consolidated statements of operations.

Administrative Agent Expense Allocation Agreement
Fidelity Direct Lending LLC (“FDL”), an affiliate of the Fund, acts as administrative agent for certain of the Fund’s loan investments. As an administrative agent, FDL is responsible for performing loan administrative services on behalf of borrowers and lenders and is entitled to fees for those services. FDL does not retain fees from portfolio companies for providing services with respect to loans in which the Fund has invested. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Administrative Agent Expense Allocation Agreement (the “Agent Allocation Agreement”), all fees earned and expenses incurred by FDL are transferred pro rata to the Fund and other affiliated funds based on the amounts the funds invested or committed, provided that those expenses shall not exceed the fees received by the Fund by FDL. Any income received or expense incurred is included in Other income or Other general and administrative expenses, respectively, if applicable.

Co-investment Relief
The Fund and the Adviser have received an exemptive order from the SEC that permits the Fund, among other things, to co-invest with certain other persons in negotiated transactions, including certain affiliates of the Adviser and certain funds managed and controlled by the Adviser and its affiliates, subject to certain terms and conditions. Pursuant to such order, the Fund’s Board may establish Board-Established Criteria clearly defining co-investment opportunities in which the Fund will have the opportunity to participate with other public or private affiliated funds that target similar assets. If an investment falls within the Board-Established Criteria, the Adviser must offer an opportunity for the Fund to participate. The Fund may determine to participate or not to participate, depending on whether the Adviser determines that the investment is appropriate for the Fund (e.g., based on investment strategy). The co-investment would generally be allocated to the Fund and the other affiliated funds that target similar assets in accordance with the Adviser’s allocation policies and procedures. If the Adviser determines that such investment is not appropriate for the Fund, the investment will not be allocated to the Fund, but the Adviser will be required to report such investment and the rationale for its determination for the Fund to not participate in the investment to the Board at the next quarterly Board meeting.

* Represents the directional change in the fair value of the Level 3 investments that could have resulted from an increase in the corresponding input as of period end. A decrease to the unobservable input would have had the opposite effect. Significant changes in these inputs may have resulted in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement at period end.
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an assigned level within the disclosure hierarchy.
Financial Instruments Not Carried at Fair Value
Debt
The carrying value of the Fund’s debt, which would be categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy, as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, approximates the fair value.
Note 7. Commitments and Contingencies
In the normal course of business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide a variety of general indemnifications. Any exposure to the Fund under these arrangements could involve future claims that may be made against the Fund. Currently, no such claims exist or are expected to arise and, accordingly, the Fund has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnifications.
Commitments
In the normal course of business, the Fund may become party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk to fund investments that have unfunded commitments associated with such instruments. These financial instruments may include commitments to extend credit on the unused portions of the Fund’s commitments pursuant to the terms of certain of the Fund’s investments in revolving credit facilities, delayed draw and other loan financing agreements in connection with the Fund’s investments in direct lending instruments. The unfunded commitments are carried at fair value with the unrealized appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion being included in fair value for each such position disclosed on the schedule of investments, and changes in those fair values are recorded in the change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on the consolidated statements of operations. The following tables detail the unfunded loan commitments at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023:

Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC
On August 25, 2022, Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC (the “SPV”) entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA (“JPM”). JPM serves as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A. serves as collateral agent and securities intermediary, and Virtus Group, LP serves as collateral administrator under the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility.
In connection with the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility, the SPV has made certain customary representations and warranties and is required to comply with various covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar facilities. The Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility contains customary events of default for similar financing transactions. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, the lender under the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility immediately due and payable.
The initial commitment amount under the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility was $500 million. On January 24, 2023 and June 6, 2023 this was increased to $750 million and $950 million, respectively. Proceeds from borrowings under the credit facility may be used to fund portfolio investments by the SPV and to make advances under delayed draw term loans where the SPV is a lender. The revolving period ends on August 25, 2025, and the facility will mature on February 25, 2027.
Advances under the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV LLC Facility currently bear interest at a per annum rate equal to the benchmark in effect for the currency of the applicable advance (which is Term SOFR in the case of U.S. dollar advances), plus an applicable margin of 2.85% per annum except for borrowings denominated in British pounds, for which the applicable margin is 2.97% per annum. The SPV, currently pays a commitment fee of 0.525% per annum of the unused facility amount, based on the average daily unused amount of the financing commitments, subject to minimum utilization amounts.
The SPV had $743,000,000 and $743,000,000 outstanding on the Fidelity Direct Lending Fund I JSPV, LLC Facility as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Short-Term Borrowings
In order to finance certain investment transactions, the Fund may, from time to time, enter into reverse repurchase agreements, whereby the Fund sells to Macquarie Bank Limited an investment that it holds and concurrently enters into an agreement to repurchase the same investment at an agreed-upon purchase price at a future date, generally not to exceed 180-days from the date it was sold (each a “Short-Term Financing Transaction”). The net purchase price that the Fund must pay to repurchase an investment includes the original purchase amount paid to the Fund by Macquarie Bank Limited to purchase an investment, a financing fee equivalent to 7.25% to 7.88% of the original purchase amount per annum and the value of cash interest payments received by Macquarie Bank Limited on the investment. Securities sold under this arrangement are presented in the Consolidated Schedule of Investments.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, there were no short-term borrowings. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were short-term borrowings which bore interest at an average applicable interest rate of 7.75% and 7.76% per annum, respectively. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Fund had no outstanding short-term borrowings.
In accordance with ASC 860, Transfers and Servicing, the Short-Term Financing Transactions meet the criteria for secured borrowings. Accordingly, the investment financed by these agreements remains on the Fund’s consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as an asset, and the Fund records a liability to reflect its repurchase obligation, which is reported as debt on the Fund’s consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The repurchase obligation is secured by the respective investment that is the subject of the reverse repurchase agreement. Interest expense associated with the repurchase obligation is reported on the Fund’s consolidated statements of operations within interest expense.

Overview
The Fund was formed on September 16, 2021 as a Delaware limited partnership and converted to a Delaware limited liability company effective January 31, 2023. The Fund elected to be regulated as a business development company on June 1, 2023 and intends to elect to be treated as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As such, the Fund is required to comply with various regulatory requirements, such as the requirement to invest at least 70% of the Fund’s assets in “qualifying assets,” source of income limitations, asset diversification requirements, and the requirement to distribute annually at least 90% of the Fund’s taxable income and tax-exempt interest. The Fund is externally managed by the Adviser, which is responsible for sourcing potential investments, conducting due diligence on prospective investments, analyzing investment opportunities, determining the value of Fund investments, structuring investments and monitoring our portfolio on an ongoing basis. Our Adviser is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC.
An externally-managed BDC generally does not have any employees, and its investment and management functions are provided by an outside investment adviser and administrator under an advisory agreement and administration agreement. Instead of directly compensating employees, we pay FDS for investment and management services pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement.
Our investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. The Fund will achieve these objectives primarily through directly originated loans to private companies but also liquid credit investments, like broadly syndicated loans, and other select Private Credit investments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in Private Credit investments. If the Fund changes its 80% test, the Fund will provide Unit Holders with at least 60 days’ prior notice of such change. The Adviser may also invest to a lesser degree in equity linked instruments (which may include debt with warrants, preferred equity investments, or equity co-investments). Most of our investments will be in private U.S. operating companies, but (subject to compliance with BDCs’ requirement to invest at least 70% of its assets in private U.S. companies) we may also invest to a lesser degree in non-U.S. companies. Subject to the limitations of the 1940 Act, we may invest in loans or other securities, the proceeds of which may refinance or otherwise repay debt or securities of companies whose debt is owned by other affiliated funds. From time to time, we may co-invest with other affiliated funds.
Key Components of Our Results of Operations
Investments
The Fund focuses primarily on directly originated loans to private companies but will also invest in liquid credit investments, such as broadly syndicated loans. Our level of investment activity (both the number of investments and the size of each investment) can and will vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to private companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the general economic environment, trading prices of loans and other securities and the competitive environment for the types of investments we make.
Revenues
The Fund generates revenues in the form of interest and fee income on debt investments, capital gains, and dividend income from our equity investments in our portfolio companies. Our senior and subordinated debt investments bear interest predominantly at a floating rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable monthly, quarterly or semiannually. In some cases, our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest. The principal amount of the debt securities and any accrued but unpaid PIK interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue in the form of commitment and other fees in connection with transactions. Original issue discounts and market discounts or premiums will be capitalized, and we will accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We will record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income. Dividend income, if any, will be recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts.
Expenses
The Adviser and/or its affiliates paid, directly or through reimbursement of the Fund, for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the organization of the Fund, including, without limitation, the following: (i) the offering and sale of the Units of the Fund, (ii) the BDC Conversion and the organization of the Fund, (iii) the election to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, and (iv) the negotiation, execution and delivery of the LLC Agreement, the Advisory Agreement, Administration Agreement (if any), and any related or similar documents, including, without limitation, any related legal and accounting fees and expenses, printing costs, travel and out-of-pocket expenses and filing fees.
Except as specifically provided below, all investment professionals and staff of the Adviser, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory services to us, and the base compensation, bonus and benefits, and the routine overhead expenses, of such personnel allocable to such services, will be provided and paid for by the Adviser. The Administrator or its affiliates will bear all fees, costs, and expenses incurred that are not specifically assumed by the Fund under the Administration Agreement.
From time to time, FDS (in its capacity as the Adviser and Administrator) or its affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. We will reimburse FDS (in its capacity as the Adviser or Administrator) or such affiliates thereof for any such amounts paid on our behalf. From time to time, FDS (in its capacity as the Adviser and Administrator) may defer or waive fees and/or rights to be reimbursed for expenses. All of the foregoing expenses will ultimately be borne by our Unit Holders, subject to the cap on organization and offering expenses.
Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement
The Fund entered into an Amended and Restated Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Adviser. Pursuant to the Expense Support Agreement for the first twelve months commencing upon the Fund’s election to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act, which occurred on June 1, 2023, the Adviser, will be obligated to advance all of the Fund’s Other Operating Expenses to the effect that such expenses do not exceed 0.50% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund’s average net assets (referred to as a “Required Expense Payment”). Any Required Expense Payment must be paid by the Adviser to the Fund in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds and/or offset against amounts due from the Fund to the Adviser or its affiliates. “Other Operating Expenses” means the Fund’s professional fees (including accounting, legal, and auditing fees), custodian and transfer agent fees and third party valuation agent fees, insurance costs, director fees, administration fees, and other general and administrative expenses. For additional information, see “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 4. Expenses and Transactions with Affiliates.”

The Adviser monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action with respect to each portfolio company. The Adviser has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:
•assessment of success of the portfolio company in adhering to its business plan and compliance with covenants;
•periodic and regular contact with portfolio company management and, if appropriate, the financial or strategic sponsor, to discuss financial position, requirements and accomplishments;
•comparisons to other companies in the portfolio company’s industry; and
•review of monthly or quarterly financial statements and financial projections for portfolio companies.
As part of the monitoring process, the Adviser employs an investment rating system to categorize our investments. In addition to various risk management and monitoring tools, the Adviser rates the credit risk of all debt investments on a scale of 1 to 5. This system is intended primarily to reflect the underlying risk of a portfolio investment relative to our initial cost basis in respect of such portfolio investment (i.e., at the time of origination or acquisition), although it may also take into account the performance of the portfolio company’s business, the collateral coverage of the investment and other relevant factors. The rating system is as follows:
1 – The portfolio investment is performing above our underwriting expectations.
2 – The portfolio investment is performing as expected at the time of underwriting. As a general rule, new investments are initially rated a 2.
3 – The portfolio investment is operating below our underwriting expectations and requires closer monitoring. The company may be out of compliance with financial covenants, however, principal or interest payments are generally not past due.
4 – The portfolio investment is performing materially below our underwriting expectations and returns on our investment are likely to be impaired. Principal or interest payments may be past due, however, full recovery of principal and interest payments are expected.
5 – The portfolio investment is performing significantly below expectations and the risk of the investment has increased substantially. The company is in payment default and the principal and interest payments are not expected to be repaid in full.
The following table shows the composition of our debt portfolio on the 1 to 5 rating scale as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.

Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations can vary from period to period as a result of various factors, including acquisitions, the level of new investment commitments, the recognition of realized gains and losses and changes in unrealized appreciation and depreciation on the investment portfolio. As a result, comparisons may not be meaningful.
Investment Income
Investment income was as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | | Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | |

Dividend income | | | 190,009 | | | | 4,401 | | | | 361,547 | | | | 4,401 | |
Total Investment Income | | $ | 44,961,840 | | | $ | 35,593,667 | | | $ | 88,510,106 | | | $ | 64,568,299 | |
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, total investment income was $45.0 million and $88.5 million, respectively, driven by the combination of our deployment of capital and the performance of the investment portfolio. The size of our investment portfolio at fair value was $1.4 billion at June 30, 2024 and our weighted average yield on debt and income producing investments, at fair value, was 11.45%. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, total investment income was $35.6 million and $64.6 million, respectively, primarily driven by our deployment of capital and the increased balance of our investments. The size of our investment portfolio at fair value was $1.2 billion at June 30, 2023 and our weighted average yield on debt and income producing investments, at fair value, was 13.34%.
The interest rate environment was stable during the quarter as evidenced by SOFR remaining within a tight range around 5.30%. During this same timeframe spreads in the lower and core middle market, our primary area of focus, modestly compressed 50 to 100 bps from levels seen roughly a year ago. While we consider higher interest rates when determining appropriate capital structures of our borrowers, additional interest rate increases and the resulting higher cost of capital have the potential to negatively impact the free cash flow of certain borrowers which could impact their ability to service their debt. Additionally, if higher interest rates occur concurrently during a slowdown in growth or period of economic weakness, our borrowers’ and potentially our portfolio performance may be negatively impacted. Alternatively, if interest rates decline, our investment income on the existing investment portfolio could be negatively impacted.

Interest Expense
Total interest expense (including unused fees and amortization of deferred financing costs) for three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $16.8 million and $33.6 million, respectively. The average principal balance outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 was $743.0 million and $743.0 million, respectively. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by greater borrowings under our credit facility. Total interest expense (including unused fees and amortization of deferred financing costs) for three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $13.1 million and $23.1 million, respectively. The average principal balance outstanding for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 was $598.2 million and $546.2 million, respectively. The increase in interest expense was primarily driven by greater borrowings under our credit facility.
Management Fees
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, management fees were $2.2 million and $4.3 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, management fees were $0.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Management fees, which went into effect on June 9, 2023, are payable monthly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily net assets of the Fund throughout the month. Prior to June 9, 2023, the Fund did not incur a management fee.
Other Expenses
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, total other expenses were $1.1 million and $2.0 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, total other expenses were $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Total other expenses over the periods were primarily driven by an increase in other general and administrative expenses driven by the larger portfolio and associated costs with managing the Fund.
Income Taxes, Including Excise Taxes
We intend to elect to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to continue to qualify annually for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. The election to be treated as a RIC will apply to the period from June 6, 2023 through December 31, 2023 and in subsequent years. For all periods prior to June 6, 2023, the Fund was treated as a partnership for tax purposes and was not subject to U.S. federal income tax. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute to our Unit Holders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of the sum of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), and net tax-exempt income for that taxable year. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we, among other things, intend to make the requisite distributions to our Unit Holders, which generally relieve us from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.
Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year dividend distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual required distributable amount of income will be in excess of estimated current year dividend distributions from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.
The Fund estimates tax liabilities for certain of the Fund’s investments held through wholly-owned subsidiaries taxed as corporations which may be subject to federal and state taxes. The tax liability may differ materially depending on conditions when these investments earn income or are disposed. The estimated tax liability of $1,079,996 and $0 as of June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, respectively, is included in Other accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, an increase in estimated tax liability of $1,079,996 is included in Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the consolidated statements of operations. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there was no estimated tax liability.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Fund incurred no U.S. federal income taxes, including excise taxes. For all period prior to June 6, 2023, the Fund was treated as a partnership for tax purposes and was not subject to U.S. federal income tax.

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not generate any realized gain (loss) on investments. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund generated net realized loss on investments of $1.0 thousand from the sale of two investments. However, this net realized loss was offset by income earned. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Fund did not generate any realized gain (loss) on investments.
Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)
Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) was comprised of the following:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Three Months Ended June 30, | | | Six Months Ended June 30, | |
| | 2024 | | | 2023 | | | 2024 | | | 2023 | |

For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the fair value of our debt investments increased due to the financial performance of our portfolio companies, net of an increase in deferred taxes of $1,079,996. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the improved financial performance of our portfolio companies was offset predominantly due to softness in the performance of a small number of portfolio companies. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the fair value of our debt investments decreased driven by spread widening in the credit markets driven in part by rising rates and inflation.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
We generate cash primarily from the net proceeds of our continuous offering of Units, proceeds from net borrowings on our credit facilities, income earned and repayments on principal on our debt investments. The primary uses of our cash are for (i) originating and purchasing debt and other investments, (ii) funding the costs of our operations (including fees paid to our Adviser and expense reimbursements paid to our Administrator), (iii) debt service, repayment and other financing costs of our borrowings, (iv) cash distributions to the holders of our units and (v) funding repurchases under our unit repurchase program.
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had one asset-based leverage facility.
In order to finance certain investment transactions, the Fund may, from time to time, enter into short-term borrowing arrangements. Such short-term borrowing arrangements include reverse repurchase agreements, whereby the Fund sells to Macquarie Bank Limited an investment that it holds and concurrently enters into an agreement to repurchase the same investment at an agreed-upon purchase price at a future date, generally not to exceed 180-days from the date it was sold.
The Fund may, from time to time, enter into additional credit facilities, increase the size of our existing credit facilities or issue additional debt securities, including debt securitizations, unsecured debt and other forms of debt. Any such incurrence or issuance may be from sources within the U.S. or from various foreign geographies or jurisdictions and may be denominated in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Additionally, any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred stock, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred stock, is at least 150%. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had an aggregate amount of $743.0 million and $743.0 million of debt outstanding and our asset coverage ratio was 196% and 191%, respectively.
Cash as of June 30, 2024, taken together with our $207.0 million of available capacity under our credit facilities (subject to borrowing base availability), proceeds from new or amended financing arrangements and proceeds from calling capital from uncalled commitments is expected to be sufficient for our investing activities and to conduct our operations in the near term. This determination is based in part on our expectations for the timing of funding investment purchases and the use of existing and future financing arrangements.
Although we have secured financing, any disruption in the financial markets or any other negative economic development could restrict our access to financing in the future. We may not be able to find new financing for future investments or liquidity needs and, even if we are able to obtain such financing, such financing may not be on as favorable terms as we could have obtained previously. These factors may limit our ability to make new investments and adversely impact our results of operations.
As of June 30, 2024, we had $19.6 million in cash and $58.5 million in short-term liquid investments. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash used in operating activities was $16.6 million, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments. Cash used in financing activities was $10.0 million during the period, primarily as a result of distributions to investors, which was offset by capital called from investors.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, cash used in operating activities was $435.8 million, primarily as a result of funding portfolio investments. Cash provided by financing activities was $368.7 million during the period, primarily as a result of calling capital from investors and net borrowings.
Equity
Prior to the BDC Conversion, the Fund operated as a private limited partnership. As a private limited partnership, the Fund entered into separate subscription agreements (each, a “Subscription Agreement”) with investors who were admitted as Limited Partners. An affiliate of the Fund, FIAM Institutional Funds Manager, LLC, served as the general partner of the Fund and had a capital commitment of $10,000 which was fully funded prior to the BDC Conversion. In connection with the BDC Conversion, existing investors were admitted as members of the Fund. Capital Commitments of investors pursuant to subscription agreements entered into prior to the BDC Conversion continue to be outstanding capital commitments to the Fund. Existing capital accounts of Limited Partners were converted to corresponding Units of the Fund. Following the BDC Conversion, the Fund continues to enter into separate subscription agreements with a number of investors who will be admitted as Unit Holders providing for the private placement of the Fund’s Units. Each subscriber makes a Capital Commitment to purchase Units of the Fund pursuant to the subscription agreement. Subscribers are required to make Capital Contributions to purchase Units of the Fund each time the
Fund delivers a drawdown notice. Capital Commitments will generally be drawn from investors by the Fund as needed, upon 10 Business Days’ prior written notice, in such amounts as will be required by the Fund in its sole discretion.
Effective March 11, 2024, the Board approved the Fund entering into the First Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement which made eligible to invest any “accredited investor” (as enumerated in Rule 502 under Regulation D of the Securities Act) who have committed to a strategic relationship with Fidelity. In addition, the Board approved the Fund entering into a Placement Agent Agreement with Fidelity Distributors Company LLC, with respect to the private placement of its Units.
Additionally, the Fund intends to commence drawdowns of capital commitments of investors who make capital commitments after March 1, 2024 only after the Fund has drawn down the capital commitments of investors admitted prior to March 1, 2024 by 90%.
Investment companies managed by an affiliate, in aggregate, were owners of record of 100% of the total units as of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023.
Effective January 31, 2023, the Fund has the authority to issue an unlimited number of units. A Unit Holder shall have no liability in excess of its obligation to pay the purchase price for its units.
As of the dates indicated, we had aggregate Capital Commitments and unfunded Capital Commitments from investors as follows:
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | June 30, 2024 | |
| | Capital Commitments | | | Unfunded Capital Commitments | | | % Unfunded Capital Commitments | |

Unit Repurchase Program
Unit Holders tendering Units must do so by a date specified in the notice describing the terms of the repurchase offer. No Unit Holder has the right to require the Fund to repurchase any Units. The Fund has no obligation to repurchase units at any time; any such repurchases will only be made at such times, in such amounts and on such terms as may be determined by the Fund, in its sole discretion.
During six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, there were no repurchases of Units.
Borrowings
The Fund’s average outstanding debt and weighted average interest rate paid for the six months ended June 30, 2024 were $743.0 million and 8.17%, respectively. The Fund’s average outstanding debt and weighted average interest rate paid for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $546.2 million and 7.90%, respectively.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not expect to have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities.
Our investment portfolio contains and is expected to continue to contain debt investments in the form of lines of credit, revolving credit facilities and delayed draw commitments which require us to provide funding when requested by portfolio companies in accordance with the underlying loan agreements. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had unfunded commitments to borrowers in the aggregate principal amount of $212.2 million and $246.5 million, respectively.
From time to time, we may become party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business. At June 30, 2024, we are not aware of any pending or threatened litigation.
Related-Party Transactions
We have entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the following:
•the Administration Agreement;
•the Transfer Agent Agreement;
•the Expense Support Agreement;
•Administrative Agent Expense Allocation Agreement;
•Affiliated Unit Holder Investments;
•Placement Agent Agreement; and
In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we, our Adviser, and certain of our Adviser’s affiliates have been granted exemptive relief by the SEC to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates in a manner consistent with our investment objectives, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors. See “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 4. Expenses and Transactions with Affiliates.”
Recent Developments
See “Item 1. Consolidated Financial Statements – Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements – Note 10. Subsequent Events” for a summary of recent developments.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ.
Fair Value Measurements
The Fund values its investments, upon which its NAV is based, in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, which defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 also provides a framework for measuring fair value, establishes a fair value hierarchy based on the observability of inputs used to measure fair value and prescribes disclosure requirements for fair value measurements.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board has designated the Adviser as the valuation designee responsible for valuing all of the Fund’s investments, including making fair valuation determinations as needed. The Adviser has established a Fair Value Committee to carry out the day-to-day fair valuation responsibilities and has adopted policies and procedures to govern activities of the Fair Value Committee and the performance of functions required to determine the fair value of a fund’s investments in good faith. These functions include periodically assessing and managing material risks associated with fair value determinations, selecting, applying, reviewing, and testing fair value methodologies, monitoring for circumstances that may necessitate the use of fair value, and overseeing and evaluating pricing services used.
In accordance with the Adviser’s policies and procedures, which have been approved by the Board, investments, including debt securities, that are publicly traded but for which no readily available market quotations exist are generally valued on the basis of information furnished by an independent third-party pricing service that uses a valuation matrix which incorporates both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. To assess the continuing appropriateness of pricing sources and methodologies, the Adviser regularly performs price verification procedures, engages in oversight activities with respect to third-party pricing sources used and issues challenges as necessary to independent pricing services or brokers, and any differences are reviewed in accordance with the valuation procedures. The Adviser does not adjust the prices unless it has a reason to believe market quotations or prices received from third-party pricing services are not reflective of the fair value of an investment.
Investments that are not publicly traded or whose current market prices or quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined by the Adviser in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s Board-approved policies and procedures. Factors used in determining fair value vary by investment type and may include market or investment specific events, transaction data, estimated cash flows, and market observations of comparable investments. In determining fair value of the Fund’s loan investments the types of factors that the Fair Value Committee may take into account generally include comparison to publicly-traded securities including such factors as yield, maturity and measures of credit quality, the enterprise value of the 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 and other relevant factors.
The Fund has engaged an independent valuation firm to prepare month-end valuation recommendations for investments for which market quotations are not readily available as of the last calendar day of each month. The independent valuation firm undertakes a full analysis of the investments and provides estimated fair values for such investments to the Adviser. The independent valuation firm also provides analyses to support their valuation methodology and calculations. The Adviser’s Fair Value Committee reviews and approves each valuation recommendation and confirms it has been calculated in accordance with the Board-approved policies and procedures. The Fair Value Committee manages the Fund’s fair valuation practices and maintains the fair valuation policies and procedures. The Adviser reports to the Board information regarding the fair valuation process and related material matters. The Board may determine to modify its designation of the Adviser as valuation designee, relating to any or all Fund investments, at any time.
Our accounting policy regarding the fair value of our investments is critical because the determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and requires the use of estimates. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining fair value measurements, the fair values of our investments may differ from the amounts that we ultimately realize or collect from sales or maturities of our investments, and the differences could be material.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk and interest rate risk.
Valuation Risk
We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, primarily in illiquid debt securities of private companies. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, based on, among other things, input from independent third-party valuation firms engaged to review our investments. 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 our investments may fluctuate from period to period. Additionally, the fair value of our 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 we may ultimately realize. Further, such investments are generally subject to legal and other restrictions on resale or otherwise are less liquid than publicly traded securities. If we are required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we could realize significantly less than the value at which we have recorded it. In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the gains or losses ultimately realized on our investments to be different than the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) reflected in the valuations currently recorded.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates, including changes due to inflation. We intend to fund portions of our investments with borrowings, and at such time, our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. Accordingly, we cannot assure Unit Holders that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.
As of June 30, 2024, 100% of our debt investments at fair value were at floating rates. Based on our consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2024, the following table shows the annualized impact on net income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (considering base rate floors and ceilings for floating rate instruments assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure):
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | Interest Income | | | Interest Expense | | | Net Income | |
Up 300 basis points | | $ | 41,721,598 | | | $ | 22,290,000 | | | $ | 19,431,598 | |
