(unaudited)

(1)All debt investments are income producing unless otherwise noted. All equity investments are non-income producing unless otherwise noted.

(2)See Note 3 in the accompanying notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements for portfolio composition by geographic region.

(3)Interest rates may be adjusted from period to period on certain term loans and revolvers. These rate adjustments may be either temporary in nature due to tier pricing arrangements or financial or payment covenant violations in the original credit agreements or permanent in nature per loan amendment or waiver documents.

(4)The interest rate on the principal balance outstanding for floating rate loans is indexed to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), which typically resets semi-annually, quarterly, or monthly at the borrower's option. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan. For each of these loans, the Company has provided the applicable margin over SOFR based on each respective credit agreement and the cash interest rate as of period end. As of December 31, 2024, the reference rates for the Company's variable rate loans were the 30-day SOFR at 4.33% and the 90-day SOFR at 4.31%. As of December 31, 2024, the Company's debt investments included interest floors which range from 0.00% to 1.00%. SOFR based contracts may include a credit spread adjustment that is charged in addition to the base rate and the stated spread.

(5)Non-Control/Non-Affiliate Investments are investments that are neither Control Investments nor Affiliate Investments. Control Investments generally are defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"), as investments in companies in which the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities and/or has the power to exercise control over the management or policies of the company. Affiliate Investments generally are defined by the Investment Company Act as investments in companies in which the Company owns between 5% and 25% of the voting securities.

(6)Principal includes accumulated payment in kind (“PIK”) interest and is net of repayments, if any.

(7)As of December 31, 2024, these investments are categorized as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy established by Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820") and were valued using significant unobservable inputs.

(8)Investment has undrawn commitments. Unamortized fees are classified as unearned income which reduces cost basis, which may result in a negative cost basis. A negative fair value may result from the unfunded commitment being valued below par.

(9)Investment is not a "qualifying asset" as defined under Section 55(a) of the Investment Company Act. Under the Investment Company Act, the Company may not acquire any non-qualifying asset unless, at the time the acquisition is made, qualifying assets represent at least 70% of the Company's total assets. As of December 31, 2024, qualifying assets represented 97.8% of the Company's total assets.

(10)This investment represents securities that were sold and simultaneously repurchased in connection with the Company's secured borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2024.

OAKTREE GARDENS OLP, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

Note 1. Organization

Oaktree Gardens OLP, LLC (the “Company”) was formed on February 6, 2023 as a Delaware limited liability company. The Company is a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company (a “BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (a “RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company is externally managed by Oaktree Fund Advisors, LLC (the “Adviser”), an investment adviser that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the U.S. Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. The Company’s administrator, Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Administrator”), provides the administrative services necessary for the Company’s operations. The Adviser is an entity under common control with Brookfield Oaktree Holdings, LLC ("BOH") (formerly known as Oaktree Capital Group, LLC). In 2019, Brookfield Corporation (formerly known as Brookfield Asset Management, Inc., collectively with its affiliates, "Brookfield") acquired a majority economic interest in BOH. BOH operates as an independent business within Brookfield, with its own product offerings and investment, marketing and support teams.

No member shall be liable for any of the debts, liabilities or obligations of the Company to the extent otherwise required by Delaware law, except that each member shall be required to pay to the Company (a) any capital contributions that it has agreed to make to the Company pursuant to any subscription agreements and (b) the amount of any distribution that it is required to return to the Company pursuant to the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement or the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act.

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and long-term capital appreciation by primarily focusing on private lending opportunities to large private equity-owned companies. The Company seeks to build a diverse portfolio across industries and expects most of its investments to be in the debt of eligible portfolio companies, generally in loans that are $500 million or more to companies with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) of $100 million or greater. To a lesser extent, the Company may invest in small- and medium-sized companies, including bespoke, highly negotiated loans, including loans to life sciences companies, and attractive, publicly-traded credits, including opportunistic investments in discounted, high-quality investments that may result from broad market dislocations or specific situational challenges. The Company focuses primarily on first lien secured loans but may occasionally invest in junior instruments.

At each closing in the private offering of common units (the “units”) of the Company’s limited liability company interests, each investor will make a capital commitment to purchase units pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with the Company. Investors are required to fund drawdowns to purchase units up to the amount of their respective capital commitments on an as-needed basis. At each drawdown of capital commitments, the purchase price will equal the net asset value per unit as of the end of the most recent calendar quarter prior to the date of the applicable purchase as determined by the Adviser, as valuation designee of the Company’s board of directors (the "Board") under the Investment Company Act, and subject to the limitations of Section 23 under the Investment Company Act. At the first capital drawdown date that occurred immediately following the initial closing, the net asset value per unit was deemed to be $20.00.

On May 1, 2023, the Company was initially capitalized with a $2 investment by Oaktree Fund GP I, L.P., an affiliate of the Adviser. On May 2, 2023, the Company redeemed the 100 units sold to Oaktree Fund GP I, L.P. on May 1, 2023. On May 4, 2023, the Company held its first closing and accepted capital commitments totaling $1,280,000. The Company's loan origination and investment activities commenced shortly after the initial closing and the Company’s operations commenced on June 8, 2023 in connection with the initial drawdown of capital from investors.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions affecting amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. These estimates are based on the information that is currently available to the Company and on various other assumptions that the Company believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Changes in the economic and political environments, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ and such differences could be material. Significant estimates include the valuation of investments and revenue recognition.

Consolidation:

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its consolidated subsidiary. The consolidated subsidiary is wholly-owned and, as such, consolidated into the consolidated financial statements. As an investment company, portfolio investments held by the Company are not consolidated into the consolidated financial statements but rather are included on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as investments at fair value.

Fair Value Measurements:

The Adviser, as the valuation designee of the Board pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act, determines the fair value of our assets on at least a quarterly basis in accordance with ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"). ASC 820 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. A liability's fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. ASC 820 prioritizes the use of observable market prices over entity-specific inputs. Where observable prices or inputs are not available or reliable, valuation techniques are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the investments or market and the investments' complexity.

Hierarchical levels, defined by ASC 820 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:

•Level 1 — Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data at the measurement date for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the Adviser's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

If inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, an investment's level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Adviser's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment. This includes investment securities that are valued using "bid" and "ask" prices obtained from independent third party pricing services or directly from brokers. These investments may be classified as Level 3 because the quoted prices may be indicative in nature for securities that are in an inactive market, may be for similar securities or may require adjustments for investment-specific factors or restrictions.

Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment inherent in measuring fair value. As such, the Adviser obtains and analyzes readily available market quotations provided by pricing vendors and brokers for all of the Company's investments for which quotations are available. In determining the fair value of a particular investment, pricing vendors and brokers use observable market information, including both binding and non-binding indicative quotations.

The Adviser seeks to obtain at least two quotations for the subject or similar securities, typically from pricing vendors. If the Adviser is unable to obtain two quotes from pricing vendors, or if the prices obtained from pricing vendors are not within the Adviser's set threshold, the Adviser seeks to obtain a quote directly from a broker making a market for the asset. The Adviser evaluates the quotations provided by pricing vendors and brokers based on available market information, including trading activity of the subject or similar securities, or by performing a comparable security analysis to ensure that fair values are reasonably estimated. The Adviser also performs back-testing of valuation information obtained from pricing vendors and brokers against actual prices received in transactions. In addition to ongoing monitoring and back-testing, the Adviser performs

12

OAKTREE GARDENS OLP, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

due diligence procedures over pricing vendors to understand their methodology and controls to support their use in the valuation process. Generally, the Adviser does not adjust any of the prices received from these sources.

If the quotations obtained from pricing vendors or brokers are determined not to be reliable or are not readily available, the Adviser values such investments using any of three different valuation techniques. The first valuation technique is the transaction precedent technique, which utilizes recent or expected future transactions of the investment to determine fair value, to the extent applicable. The second valuation technique is an analysis of the enterprise value ("EV") of the portfolio company. EV means the entire value of the portfolio company to a market participant, including the sum of the values of debt and equity securities used to capitalize the enterprise at a point in time. The EV analysis is typically performed to determine (i) the value of equity investments, (ii) whether there is credit impairment for debt investments and (iii) the value for debt investments that the Company is deemed to control under the Investment Company Act. To estimate the EV of a portfolio company, the Adviser analyzes various factors, including the portfolio company’s historical and projected financial results, macroeconomic impacts on the company and competitive dynamics in the company’s industry. The Adviser also utilizes some or all of the following information based on the individual circumstances of the portfolio company: (i) valuations of comparable public companies, (ii) recent sales of private and public comparable companies in similar industries or having similar business or earnings characteristics, (iii) purchase prices as a multiple of their earnings or cash flow, (iv) the portfolio company’s ability to meet its forecasts and its business prospects, (v) a discounted cash flow analysis, (vi) estimated liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio company's assets and (vii) offers from third parties to buy the portfolio company. The Adviser may probability weight potential sale outcomes with respect to a portfolio company when uncertainty exists as of the valuation date. The third valuation technique is a market yield technique, which is typically performed for non-credit impaired debt investments. In the market yield technique, a current price is imputed for the investment based upon an assessment of the expected market yield for a similarly structured investment with a similar level of risk, and the Adviser considers the current contractual interest rate, the capital structure and other terms of the investment relative to risk of the company and the specific investment. A key determinant of risk, among other things, is the leverage through the investment relative to the EV of the portfolio company. As debt investments held by the Company are substantially illiquid with no active transaction market, the Adviser depends on primary market data, including newly funded transactions and industry specific market movements, as well as secondary market data with respect to high yield debt instruments and syndicated loans, as inputs in determining the appropriate market yield, as applicable.

The Board has designated the Adviser to serve as its valuation designee under Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act. The Adviser undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter in connection with determining the fair value of the Company's investments:

•The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the Adviser's valuation team;

•Preliminary valuations are then reviewed and discussed with management of the Adviser;

•Separately, independent valuation firms prepare valuations of the Company's investments, on a selected basis, for which market quotations are not readily available or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of the investment, and submit the reports to the Company and provide such reports to the Adviser;

•The Adviser compares and contrasts its preliminary valuations to the valuations of the independent valuation firms and prepares a valuation report for the Audit Committee;

•The Audit Committee reviews the valuation report with the Adviser, and the Adviser responds and supplements the valuation report to reflect any discussions between the Adviser and the Audit Committee; and

•The Adviser, as valuation designee, determines the fair value of each investment in the Company's portfolio.

The fair value of the Company's investments as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 was determined by the Adviser, as the Company's valuation designee. The Company has and will continue to engage independent valuation firms to provide assistance each quarter regarding the determination of the fair value of a portion of its portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of the investment.

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 Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.

With the exception of the line items entitled "deferred financing costs," "other assets," "secured borrowings" and "credit facility payable," which are reported at amortized cost, all assets and liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities approximate fair value. The carrying value of the line items titled "interest receivable," "accounts payable, accrued

expenses and other liabilities," "base management fee payable," "due to affiliates," "interest payable" and "director fees payable" approximate fair value due to their short maturities.

Foreign Currency Translation:

The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the prevailing foreign exchange rate on the reporting date. The Company does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. The Company’s investments in foreign securities may involve certain risks, including foreign exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic risks, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the investment. In addition, changes in the relationship of foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of these investments and therefore the earnings of the Company.

Derivative Instruments:

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the Company's exposure to fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies. In a foreign currency forward contract, the Company agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of one currency for another at a pre-determined price at a future date. Foreign currency forward contracts are marked-to-market at the applicable forward rate. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency forward contracts is recorded within derivative assets or derivative liabilities on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities by counterparty on a net basis, not taking into account collateral posted which is recorded separately, if applicable. Purchases and settlements of foreign currency forward contracts having the same settlement date and counterparty are generally settled net and any realized gains or losses are recognized on the settlement date. The Company does not utilize hedge accounting with respect to foreign currency forward contracts and as such, the Company recognizes its foreign currency forward contracts at fair value with changes included in the net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Secured Borrowings:

Securities sold and simultaneously repurchased at a premium are reported as financing transactions in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing ("ASC 860"). Amounts payable to the counterparty are due on the repurchase settlement date and, excluding accrued interest, such amounts are presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as secured borrowings. Premiums payable are separately reported as accrued interest.

Investment Income:

Interest Income

Interest income, adjusted for accretion of original issue discount ("OID"), is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company stops accruing interest on investments when it is determined that interest is no longer collectible. Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest cash payments will be collected. Cash interest payments received on investments may be recognized as income or a return of capital depending upon management’s judgment. A non-accrual investment is restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid in cash, and the portfolio company, in management’s judgment, is likely to continue timely payment of its remaining obligations. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, there were no investments on non-accrual status.

For the Company's secured borrowings, the interest earned on the entire loan balance is recorded within interest income and the interest earned by the counterparty is recorded within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

PIK Interest Income

The Company's investments in debt securities may contain payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest provisions. PIK interest, which generally represents contractually deferred interest added to the loan balance that is generally due at the end of the loan term, is generally recorded on the accrual basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. The Company generally ceases accruing PIK interest if there is insufficient value to support the accrual or if the Company does not expect the portfolio company to be able to pay all principal and interest due. The Company's decision to cease accruing PIK interest on a loan or debt security involves subjective judgments and determinations based on available information about a particular portfolio company, including whether the portfolio company is current with respect to its payment of principal and interest on its loans and debt securities; financial statements and financial projections for the portfolio company; the Company's assessment of the portfolio company's business development success; information obtained by the Company in connection with periodic formal update interviews with the portfolio company's management and, if appropriate, the private equity sponsor; and information about the general economic and market conditions in which the portfolio company operates. The Company's determination to

14

OAKTREE GARDENS OLP, LLC

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

cease accruing PIK interest is generally made well before the Company's full write-down of a loan or debt security. In addition, if it is subsequently determined that the Company will not be able to collect any previously accrued PIK interest, the fair value of the loans or debt securities would be reduced by the amount of such previously accrued, but uncollectible, PIK interest. The accrual of PIK interest on the Company’s debt investments increases the recorded cost bases of these investments in the consolidated financial statements including for purposes of computing the capital gains incentive fee payable by the Company to the Adviser. To maintain its status as a RIC, certain income from PIK interest may be required to be distributed (or deemed distributed) to the Company’s unitholders, even though the Company has not yet collected the cash and may never do so.

Fee Income

The Adviser or its affiliates may provide financial advisory services to portfolio companies in connection with structuring a transaction and in return the Company may receive fees for capital structuring services. These fees are generally non-recurring and are recognized by the Company upon the investment closing date. The Company may also receive additional fees in the ordinary course of business, including servicing, amendment, exit and prepayment fees, which are classified as fee income and recognized as they are earned or the services are rendered.

Dividend Income

The Company generally recognizes dividend income on the ex-dividend date for public securities and the record date for private equity investments. Distributions received from private equity investments are 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 private equity investments as dividend income unless there are sufficient earnings at the portfolio company 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.

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when acquired. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, cash held in bank accounts may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") insurance limit. Cash and cash equivalents are included on the Company's Consolidated Schedule of Investments and cash equivalents are classified as Level 1 assets.

Deferred Financing Costs:

Deferred financing costs consist of fees and expenses paid in connection with the closing or amending of credit facilities. Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with credit facilities are capitalized as an asset when incurred. Deferred financing costs incurred in connection with all other debt arrangements are a direct deduction from the related debt liability when incurred. Deferred financing costs are amortized using the effective interest method over the term of the respective debt arrangement. This amortization expense is included in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Upon early termination or modification of a credit facility, all or a portion of unamortized fees related to such facility may be accelerated into interest expense.

Organization and Offering Costs:

Costs associated with the organization of the Company are expensed as incurred. Costs associated with the offering of the units are capitalized as "deferred offering costs" on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities and amortized over a 12-month period from incurrence.

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not incur any organization costs. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred organization costs $5. For the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company amortized offering costs of $0 and $87, respectively.

Income Taxes:

The Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. So long as the Company 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 timely distributes (or, is deemed to distribute, except with respect to certain retained capital gains, as discussed below) at least annually to its unitholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and timely distributed (or deemed timely distributed) by the Company would represent obligations of the Company’s investors and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Company. Any net operating losses, foreign tax credits and most other tax attributes generally will not pass through to the Company's investors. The Company will be subject to corporate-level U.S. federal income tax on any undistributed income and/or gains.

To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Company must distribute to its unitholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income” (as defined in the Code) for that

(in thousands, except unit and per unit amounts, percentages and as otherwise indicated)

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 Company is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Company 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 Company that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed. The Company did not incur any U.S. federal excise tax for calendar years 2024 and 2023. The Company does not expect to incur a U.S. federal excise tax for calendar year 2025.

The Company 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. Management has analyzed the Company’s tax positions and has concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken on returns filed for open tax year 2023.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280), which improves reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The amendments are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023 and interim period within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company does not expect this guidance to materially impact its consolidated financial statements.

Fair Value Measurements

The following table presents the financial instruments carried at fair value as of December 31, 2024 on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities for each of the three levels of hierarchy established by ASC 820:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
Senior secured debt	$	—	$	—	$	693,302	$	693,302

Total assets at fair value	$	169,533	$	—	$	575,225	$	744,758

When a determination is made to classify a financial instrument within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy, the determination is based upon the fact that the unobservable factors are significant to the overall fair value measurement. However, Level 3 financial instruments typically have both unobservable or Level 3 components and observable components (i.e. components that are actively quoted and can be validated by external sources). Accordingly, the appreciation (depreciation) in the tables below includes changes in fair value due in part to observable factors that are part of the valuation methodology.

Under the market yield technique, the significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company's investments in debt securities is the market yield. Increases or decreases in the market yield may result in a lower or higher fair value measurement, respectively.

The principal values of the Company's credit facilities payable approximate fair value due to their variable interest rates and are included in Level 3 of the hierarchy. The principal values of the Company's secured borrowings approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity.

Note 4. Fee Income

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company recorded total fee income of $424, of which $14 was recurring in nature. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company recorded total fee income of $3, all of which was recurring in nature. Recurring fee income consisted of servicing fees.

Capital Activity

During the three months ended December 31, 2024, the Company issued and sold 4,357,977 units at an aggregate purchase price of $89,600. As of December 31, 2024, the Company had issued and sold 22,076,191 units since inception at an aggregate purchase price of $447,300, which represented approximately 35% of total committed capital.

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued and sold 3,123,152 units at an aggregate purchase price of $63,400.

Distributions

Distributions to unitholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The Company is required to distribute dividends each tax year to its unitholders of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of its investment company taxable income, determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid, in order to be eligible for tax benefits allowed to a RIC under the Code. The Company anticipates paying out as a distribution all or substantially all of those amounts. The amount to be paid out as a dividend is determined by the Board and is based on management’s estimate of the Company’s annual taxable income.

For income tax purposes, the Company has reported its distributions for the 2024 calendar year as ordinary income. The character of such distributions will be appropriately reported to the Internal Revenue Service and unitholders for the 2024 calendar year. To the extent the Company’s taxable earnings for a fiscal and taxable year fall below the amount of distributions paid for the fiscal and taxable year, a portion of the total amount of the Company’s distributions for the fiscal and taxable year is deemed a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the Company’s unitholders.

The following table reflects the distributions that the Company has paid on its units during the three months ended December 31, 2024:

Date Declared	Record Date	Payment Date	Aggregate Amount
December 17, 2024	December 16, 2024	December 27, 2024	$	11,000

Note 6. Borrowings

Subscription Facility

On September 26, 2023, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the “Subscription Facility”) with the Company, as borrower, Gardens Coinvest, LLC, as initial qualified borrower, Oaktree Gardens OLP SPV, L.P. (the “SPV”), as initial guarantor, Oaktree OLPG GP, L.P. (the “GP”), as general partner, Oaktree OLPG GP Ltd. (the “Ultimate GP”), as ultimate general partner, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. As of December 31, 2024, the Subscription Facility provided for borrowings of up to $437,500 in aggregate principal amount or, if smaller, 90% of unfunded commitments from certain eligible investors. The maturity date of the Subscription Facility is September 25, 2025. Borrowings under the Subscription Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (1) term SOFR for the selected period plus 2.30% per annum for SOFR loans or (2) the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate plus 1.30% per annum, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.80% per annum, and (c) Daily Simple SOFR in effect for such day plus 1.30% per annum for reference rate loans. There is a non-usage fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the Subscription Facility, payable quarterly.

The Subscription Facility is secured by a first priority security interest, subject to customary exceptions, in (i) all capital commitments of investors in the SPV, (ii) the SPV’s, GP’s and Ultimate GP’s right to make capital calls, receive payment of capital contributions from investors and enforce payment of capital commitments and capital contributions under the SPV’s subscription agreements with investors and other operative documents and (iii) a cash collateral account into which the capital contributions from investors are made. The Company made customary representations and warranties and are required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities.

Note 7. Taxable/Distributable Income

Taxable income differs from net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations primarily due to: (1) unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency, as gains and losses are not included in taxable income until they are realized and (2) organizational and deferred offering costs.

Presented below is a reconciliation of net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations to taxable income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023:

	Three months ended December 31, 2024		Three months ended December 31, 2023
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations	$	11,525	$	5,069
Net unrealized (appreciation) depreciation	(778)		(984)
Other book/tax differences	118		34
Taxable income (1)	$	10,865	$	4,119

__________________

(1)The Company's taxable income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 is an estimate and will not be finally determined until the Company files its tax return for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2025. The final taxable income may be different than the estimate.

As of September 30, 2024, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed ordinary loss, net	$	(60)
Net realized capital gains	1,387
Unrealized gains, net	5,264
Accumulated earnings	$	6,591

The aggregate cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $569.7 million as of September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate gross unrealized appreciation for all investments in which there was an excess of value over cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $6.4 million. As of September 30, 2024, the aggregate gross unrealized depreciation for all investments in which there was an excess of cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes over value was $1.1 million. Net unrealized appreciation based on the aggregate cost of investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes was $5.3 million.

Note 8. Concentration of Credit Risks

The Company deposits its cash with financial institutions and at times such balances may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. The Company limits its exposure to credit loss by depositing its cash with high credit quality financial institutions and monitoring their financial stability.

Note 9. Related Party Transactions

Investment Advisory Agreement

The Company has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays the Adviser a management fee for investment advisory and management services.

The management fee is payable quarterly in arrears and equals 1.00% per annum of the Company’s gross assets (excluding cash and cash equivalents). The management fee for each quarter is calculated based on the average gross assets of the Company (excluding cash and cash equivalents) at the end of such quarter and at the end of the preceding quarter. The Adviser does not receive any fees on Capital Commitments not yet drawn. For the three months December 31, 2024, the Company incurred $1,606 of management fees, of which $376 were irrevocably waived by the Adviser. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred $475 of management fees, of which $111 were irrevocably waived by the Adviser.

Business Overview

We were formed on February 6, 2023 as a Delaware limited liability company. We are a closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act"). We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). We are externally managed by the Adviser, an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Oaktree Fund Administration, LLC (the "Administrator") provides the administrative services necessary for our operations.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and long-term capital appreciation by primarily focusing on private lending opportunities to large private equity-owned companies. We seek to build a diverse portfolio across industries

28

and expect most of our investments to be in the debt of eligible portfolio companies, generally in loans that are $500 million or more to companies with earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") of $100 million or greater. To a lesser extent, we may invest in small- and medium-sized companies, including bespoke, highly negotiated loans, including loans to life sciences companies, and attractive, publicly-traded credits, including opportunistic investments in discounted, high-quality investments that may result from broad market dislocations or specific situational challenges. We intend to focus primarily on first lien secured loans but may occasionally invest in junior instruments.

At each closing in the private offering of units, each investor will make a capital commitment to purchase units pursuant to a subscription agreement entered into with us. Investors will be required to fund drawdowns to purchase units up to the amount of their respective capital commitments on an as-needed basis. At each drawdown of capital commitments, the purchase price will equal the net asset value per unit as of the end of the most recent calendar quarter prior to the date of the applicable purchase as determined by the Adviser, as valuation designee of our board of directors under the Investment Company Act, and subject to the limitations of Section 23 under the Investment Company Act. At the first capital drawdown date that occurred immediately following the initial closing, the net asset value per unit was deemed to be $20.00.

On May 1, 2023, we were initially capitalized with a $2 investment by Oaktree Fund GP I, L.P., an affiliate of the Adviser. On May 2, 2023, we redeemed the 100 units sold to Oaktree Fund GP I, L.P. on May 1, 2023. On May 4, 2023, we held our first closing and accepted capital commitments totaling $1,280,000. Our loan origination and investment activities commenced shortly after the initial closing and our operations commenced on June 8, 2023 in connection with the initial drawdown of capital from investors.

Business Environment and Developments

Global financial markets have experienced an increase in volatility over the last few years amid higher inflation, elevated interest rates, and concern over a potential slowdown in economic activity. As inflation pressures have eased in recent months, the Federal Reserve has relaxed its monetary policies and cut the federal funds rate to support the broader economy. However, various macroeconomic headwinds remain including ongoing conflict in the Middle East and signs of an economic slowdown outside the United States. These uncertainties can ultimately impact the overall supply and demand of the market through changing spreads, deal terms and structures and equity purchase price multiples.

We are unable to predict the full effects of these macroeconomic events or how they might evolve. We continue to closely monitor the impact these events have on our business, industry and portfolio companies and will provide constructive solutions where necessary.

Against this backdrop, we believe attractive risk-adjusted returns can be achieved by making loans to companies in the middle market. Given the breadth of the investment platform and decades of credit investing experience of Oaktree and its affiliates, we believe that we have the resources and experience to source, diligence and structure investments in these companies.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Fair Value Measurements

Our Adviser, as the valuation designee of our board of directors pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act, determines the fair value of our assets on at least a quarterly basis in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC"), Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures ("ASC 820"). ASC 820 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. A liability's fair value is defined as the amount that would be paid to transfer the liability to a new obligor, not the amount that would be paid to settle the liability with the creditor. ASC 820 prioritizes the use of observable market prices over entity-specific inputs. Where observable prices or inputs are not available or reliable, valuation techniques are applied. These valuation techniques involve some level of estimation and judgment, the degree of which is dependent on the price transparency for the investments or market and the investments' complexity.

Hierarchical levels, defined by ASC 820 and directly related to the amount of subjectivity associated with the inputs to fair valuation of these assets and liabilities, are as follows:

•Level 1 — Unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the measurement date.

•Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data at the measurement date for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

•Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that reflect the Adviser's best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Consideration is given to the risk inherent in the valuation technique and the risk inherent in the inputs to the model.

If inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, an investment's level is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Adviser's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and considers factors specific to the investment. This includes investment securities that are valued using "bid" and "ask" prices obtained from independent third party pricing services or directly from brokers. These investments may be classified as Level 3 because the quoted prices may be indicative in nature for securities that are in an inactive market, may be for similar securities or may require adjustments for investment-specific factors or restrictions.

Financial instruments with readily available quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment inherent in measuring fair value. As such, the Adviser obtains and analyzes readily available market quotations provided by pricing vendors and brokers for all of our investments for which quotations are available. In determining the fair value of a particular investment, pricing vendors and brokers use observable market information, including both binding and non-binding indicative quotations.

The Adviser seeks to obtain at least two quotations for the subject or similar securities, typically from pricing vendors. If the Adviser is unable to obtain two quotes from pricing vendors, or if the prices obtained from pricing vendors are not within the Adviser's set threshold, the Adviser seeks to obtain a quote directly from a broker making a market for the asset. The

30

Adviser evaluates the quotations provided by pricing vendors and brokers based on available market information, including trading activity of the subject or similar securities, or by performing a comparable security analysis to ensure that fair values are reasonably estimated. The Adviser also performs back-testing of valuation information obtained from pricing vendors and brokers against actual prices received in transactions. In addition to ongoing monitoring and back-testing, the Adviser performs due diligence procedures over pricing vendors to understand their methodology and controls to support their use in the valuation process. Generally, the Adviser does not adjust any of the prices received from these sources.

If the quotations obtained from pricing vendors or brokers are determined not to be reliable or are not readily available, the Adviser values such investments using any of three different valuation techniques. The first valuation technique is the transaction precedent technique, which utilizes recent or expected future transactions of the investment to determine fair value, to the extent applicable. The second valuation technique is an analysis of the enterprise value ("EV") of the portfolio company. EV means the entire value of the portfolio company to a market participant, including the sum of the values of debt and equity securities used to capitalize the enterprise at a point in time. The EV analysis is typically performed to determine (i) the value of equity investments, (ii) whether there is credit impairment for debt investments and (iii) the value for debt investments that we are deemed to control under the Investment Company Act. To estimate the EV of a portfolio company, the Adviser analyzes various factors, including the portfolio company’s historical and projected financial results, macroeconomic impacts on the company and competitive dynamics in the company’s industry. The Adviser also utilizes some or all of the following information based on the individual circumstances of the portfolio company: (i) valuations of comparable public companies, (ii) recent sales of private and public comparable companies in similar industries or having similar business or earnings characteristics, (iii) purchase prices as a multiple of their earnings or cash flow, (iv) the portfolio company’s ability to meet its forecasts and its business prospects, (v) a discounted cash flow analysis, (vi) estimated liquidation or collateral value of the portfolio company's assets and (vii) offers from third parties to buy the portfolio company. The Adviser may probability weight potential sale outcomes with respect to a portfolio company when uncertainty exists as of the valuation date. The third valuation technique is a market yield technique, which is typically performed for non-credit impaired debt investments. In the market yield technique, a current price is imputed for the investment based upon an assessment of the expected market yield for a similarly structured investment with a similar level of risk, and the Adviser considers the current contractual interest rate, the capital structure and other terms of the investment relative to our risk and the specific investment. A key determinant of risk, among other things, is the leverage through the investment relative to the EV of the portfolio company. As debt investments held by us are substantially illiquid with no active transaction market, the Adviser depends on primary market data, including newly funded transactions and industry specific market movements, as well as secondary market data with respect to high yield debt instruments and syndicated loans, as inputs in determining the appropriate market yield, as applicable.

Our board of directors has designated the Adviser to serve as its valuation designee under Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act. The Adviser undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter in connection with determining the fair value of the Company's investments:

•The quarterly valuation process begins with each portfolio company or investment being initially valued by the Adviser's valuation team;

•Preliminary valuations are then reviewed and discussed with management of the Adviser;

•Separately, independent valuation firms prepare valuations of our investments, on a selected basis, for which market quotations are not readily available or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of the investment, and submit the reports to us and provide such reports to the Adviser;

•The Adviser compares and contrasts its preliminary valuations to the valuations of the independent valuation firms and prepares a valuation report for the Audit Committee;

•The Audit Committee reviews the valuation report with the Adviser, and the Adviser responds and supplements the valuation report to reflect any discussions between the Adviser and the Audit Committee; and

•The Adviser, as valuation designee, determines the fair value of each investment in our portfolio.

The fair value of our investments as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 was determined by the Adviser, as our valuation designee. We have and will continue to engage independent valuation firms each quarter to provide assistance regarding the determination of the fair value of a portion of our portfolio securities for which market quotations are not readily available or are readily available but deemed not reflective of the fair value of the investment.

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. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.

31

As of December 31, 2024, we held $699,317 of investments at fair value, up from $575,225 held at September 30, 2024, primarily driven by new investment purchases during the three months ended December 31, 2024.

Revenue Recognition

We generate revenues in the form of interest income on debt investments and, to a lesser extent, capital gains and distributions, if any, on equity securities that we may acquire in portfolio companies. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, structuring or diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees. Some of our investments provide for deferred interest payments or payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest income. The principal amount of the debt investments and any accrued but unpaid interest generally becomes due at the maturity date.

Interest Income

Interest income, adjusted for accretion of original issue discount, is recorded on an accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are expected to be collected. We stop accruing interest on investments when it is determined that interest is no longer collectible. Investments that are expected to pay regularly scheduled interest in cash are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest cash payments will be collected. Cash interest payments received on investments may be recognized as income or a return of capital depending upon management’s judgment. A non-accrual investment is restored to accrual status if past due principal and interest are paid in cash, and the portfolio company, in management’s judgment, is likely to continue timely payment of its remaining obligations.

For our secured borrowings, the interest earned on the entire loan balance is recorded within interest income and the interest earned by the counterparty is recorded within interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

PIK Interest Income

Our investments in debt securities may contain PIK interest provisions. PIK interest, which generally represents contractually deferred interest added to the loan balance that is generally due at the end of the loan term, is generally recorded on the accrual basis to the extent such amounts are expected to be collected. We generally cease accruing PIK interest if there is insufficient value to support the accrual or if we do not expect the portfolio company to be able to pay all principal and interest due. Our decision to cease accruing PIK interest on a loan or debt security involves subjective judgments and determinations based on available information about a particular portfolio company, including whether the portfolio company is current with respect to its payment of principal and interest on its loans and debt securities; financial statements and financial projections for the portfolio company; our assessment of the portfolio company's business development success; information obtained by us in connection with periodic formal update interviews with the portfolio company's management and, if appropriate, the private equity sponsor; and information about the general economic and market conditions in which the portfolio company operates. Our determination to cease accruing PIK interest is generally made well before our full write-down of a loan or debt security. In addition, if it is subsequently determined that we will not be able to collect any previously accrued PIK interest, the fair value of the loans or debt securities would be reduced by the amount of such previously accrued, but uncollectible, PIK interest. The accrual of PIK interest on our debt investments increases the recorded cost bases of these investments in our consolidated financial statements. To maintain our status as a RIC, certain income from PIK interest may be required to be distributed (or deemed to be distributed) to our unitholders even though we have not yet collected the cash and may never do so.

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, there were no investments on non-accrual status.

Portfolio Composition

As of December 31, 2024, the fair value of our investment portfolio was $699,317 and was composed of investments in 19 portfolio companies. As of September 30, 2024, the fair value of our investment portfolio was $575,225 and was composed of investments in 17 portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, all of our debt investments were floating rate loans. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, all of our investments were in the U.S. The geographic composition of our portfolio is determined by the location of the corporate headquarters of the portfolio company, which may not be indicative of the primary source of the portfolio company's business.

 Discussion and Analysis of Results and Operations

Results of Operations

The principal measure of our financial performance is the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, which includes net investment income, net realized gains (losses) and net unrealized appreciation (depreciation). Net investment income is the difference between our income from interest, fees and net expenses. Net realized gains (losses) is the difference between the proceeds received from dispositions of investment related assets and liabilities and their stated costs. Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is the net change in the fair value of our investment related assets, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation (depreciation) when gains or losses are realized.

Comparison of the three months ended December 31, 2024 and December 31, 2023

Investment Income

Total investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 was $20,364 and consisted of $19,940 of interest income (including $436 of PIK interest income) primarily from portfolio investments and $424 of fee income. The increase in total investment income from the prior period was mainly driven by a larger investment portfolio and higher prepayment fees. Based on fair value as of December 31, 2024, the weighted average yield on our debt investments was 10.3%.

Total investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 was $6,567 and consisted of $6,564 of interest income and $3 of fee income primarily from portfolio investments. Based on fair value as of December 31, 2023, the weighted average yield on our debt investments was 11.8%.

Expenses

Net expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 were $9,501, up significantly from $2,536 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily driven by a larger investment portfolio attributable to new capital raised from the issuance of common units and an increase in borrowings outstanding. Net expenses consisted of the following:

	For the three months ended December 31, 2024		For the three months ended December 31, 2023
Expenses:
Base management fee	$	1,606	$	475
Professional fees	311		108
Directors fees	119		119
Organization expenses	—		5
Amortization of deferred offering costs	—		87
Interest expense	7,592		1,700
Administrator expense	89		87
General and administrative expenses	160		66
Total expenses	$	9,877	$	2,647
Management fees waived	(376)		(111)
Net expenses	$	9,501	$	2,536

Net Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)

Net unrealized appreciation was $778 for the three months ended December 31, 2024, which was primarily driven by net unrealized appreciation on debt investments and foreign currency forward contracts.

Net unrealized appreciation was $984 for the three months ended December 31, 2023, which was primarily driven by net unrealized appreciation on debt investments.

Realized Gains (Losses)

Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the sale or redemption of investments and foreign currency and the cost basis without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments written-off during the period, net of recoveries. Realized losses may also be recorded in connection with our determination that certain investments are considered worthless securities and/or meet the conditions for loss recognition per the applicable tax rules.

During the three months December 31, 2024 and 2023, we recorded aggregate net realized gains (losses) of $(116) and $54, respectively.

Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

We expect to generate cash from (1) the net proceeds of the private offering of our common units, (2) cash flows from operations, including earnings on investments, as well as interest earned from the temporary investment of cash in cash-equivalents, U.S. government securities and other high-quality debt investments that mature in one year or less, (3) borrowings from banks, including secured borrowings, and any other financing arrangements we may enter into in the future and (4) any future offerings of equity or debt securities.

34

Our primary uses of cash are for (1) investments in portfolio companies and other investments to comply with certain portfolio diversification requirements, (2) the cost of operations (including our expenses, the management fee and any indemnification obligations), (3) debt service of borrowings, if any, and (4) cash distributions to unitholders.

For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we experienced a net decrease in cash and cash equivalents of $19,373. During that period, $113,205 of cash was used in operating activities, primarily consisting of cash used to fund new investments, partially offset by investment repayments. During the same period, cash provided by financing activities was $93,876, due primarily from $15,000 of net borrowings under our senior secured revolving credit facility (the "Subscription Facility") with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as administrative agent, $89,600 of proceeds from the issuance of common units and $276 of net proceeds from secured borrowings, partially offset by $11,000 of distributions paid to unitholders.

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we experienced a net increase in cash and cash equivalents of $107,686. During that period, $157,507 of cash was used in operating activities, primarily consisting of cash used to fund new investments. During the same period, cash provided by financing activities was $265,193, due primarily from $178,693 of proceeds from secured borrowings, $63,400 of proceeds from the issuance of common units and $30,000 of net borrowings under the Subscription Facility, partially offset by $6,900 of distributions paid to unitholders.

As of December 31, 2024, we had $187,971 of cash and cash equivalents, portfolio investments (at fair value) of $699,317, $3,989 of interest receivable, $55,500 of undrawn capacity on the Subscription Facility (subject to borrowing base and other limitations) and $382,000 of borrowings outstanding under the Subscription Facility.

As of September 30, 2024, we had $207,344 of cash and cash equivalents, portfolio investments (at fair value) of $575,225 $2,861 of interest receivable, $70,500 of undrawn capacity on the Subscription Facility (subject to borrowing base and other limitations) and $367,000 of borrowings outstanding under the Subscription Facility.

We are a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of business to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, off-balance sheet arrangements consisted of $150,123 and $131,834, respectively, of unfunded commitments to provide debt financing to certain of our portfolio companies. Such commitments are subject to the portfolio company's satisfaction of certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and may involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the Company issued and sold 3,123,152 units at an aggregate purchase price of $63,400.

Distributions

The following table reflects the distributions that we paid on our units during the three months ended December 31, 2024:

Date Declared	Record Date	Payment Date	Aggregate Amount
December 17, 2024	December 16, 2024	December 27, 2024	$	11,000

The following table reflects the distributions that we paid on our units during the three months ended December 31, 2023:

Date Declared	Record Date	Payment Date	Aggregate Amount

Leverage

Our sole initial unitholder approved the application of the reduced asset coverage requirements in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act to us on May 1, 2023, with such requirements effective with respect to us on May 2, 2023. The reduced asset coverage requirements permit us to double the maximum amount of leverage that we are permitted to incur under the Investment Company Act by reducing the asset coverage requirements applicable to us from 200% to 150%. As a result of the reduced asset coverage requirement under the Investment Company Act, we can incur $2 of debt for each $1 of equity. As of December 31, 2024, we had $435,039 in outstanding senior securities and our asset coverage was 204.45%.

Subscription Facility

On September 26, 2023, we entered into the Subscription Facility. As of December 31, 2024, the Subscription Facility provides for borrowings of up to $437,500 aggregate principal amount or, if smaller, 90% of unfunded commitments from certain of eligible investors. The maturity date of the Subscription Facility is September 25, 2025. Borrowings under the Subscription Facility bear interest at a rate equal to (1) term SOFR for the selected period plus 2.30% per annum for SOFR loans or (2) the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate plus 1.30% per annum, (b) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1.80% per annum, and (c) Daily Simple SOFR in effect for such day plus 1.30% per annum for reference rate loans. There is a non-usage fee of 0.25% per annum on the unused portion of the Subscription Facility, payable quarterly.

The Subscription Facility is secured by a first priority security interest, subject to customary exceptions, in (i) all capital commitments of investors in Oaktree Gardens OLP SPV, L.P. (the “SPV”), (ii) the SPV’s, Oaktree OLPG GP, L.P.’s and Oaktree OLPG GP Ltd.’s right to make capital calls, receive payment of capital contributions from investors and enforce payment of capital commitments and capital contributions under the SPV’s subscription agreements with investors and other operative documents and (iii) a cash collateral account into which the capital contributions from investors are made. We made customary representations and warranties and are required to comply with various affirmative and negative covenants, reporting requirements and other customary requirements for similar credit facilities.

As of December 31, 2024, we had $382,000 outstanding under the Subscription Facility, which had a fair value of $382,000. As of September 30, 2024, we had $367,000 outstanding under the Subscription Facility, which had a fair value of $367,000. Our borrowings under the Subscription Facility bore interest at a weighted average interest rate of 7.00% and 7.90% for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. For the three months ended December 31, 2024, we recorded interest expense (inclusive of fees) of $6,519 related to the Subscription Facility. For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we recorded interest expense (inclusive of fees) of $1,268 related to the Subscription Facility.

36

Secured Borrowings

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, we had $53,039 and $52,764 of secured borrowings outstanding, respectively. Our secured borrowings bore interest at a weighted average rate of 7.55% for the three months ended December 31, 2024. We recorded $1,073 of interest expense in connection with secured borrowings for the three months ended December 31, 2024. Our secured borrowings bore interest at a weighted average rate of 8.69% for the three months ended December 31, 2023. We recorded $432 of interest expense in connection with secured borrowings for the three months ended December 31, 2023.

Regulated Investment Company Status and Distributions

We intend to continue to make quarterly distributions of at least 90% of our realized net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of our net long-term capital losses, if any, then available for distribution, each as determined by our board of directors in accordance with applicable law. Any distributions will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution. We expect quarterly distributions to be paid from income primarily generated by interest earned on our investments, although distributions to unitholders may also include a return of capital.

We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. To maintain RIC qualification, we must distribute (or be deemed distribute) to our unitholders, for each tax year, at least 90% of our “investment company taxable income” (as defined in the Code) for that year. In order to avoid certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we intend to distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of: (1) 98% of our ordinary income for the calendar year; (2) 98.2% of our capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending on October 31 of the calendar year; and, (3) any undistributed ordinary income and capital gain net income for preceding years on which we paid no U.S. federal income tax less certain over-distributions in prior years. In addition, although we currently intend to distribute realized net capital gains (i.e., net long term capital gains in excess of short term capital losses), if any, at least annually, we may in the future decide to retain such capital gains for investment, pay U.S. federal income tax on such amounts at regular U.S. corporate income tax rates, and elect to treat such gains as deemed distributions to unitholders. We can offer no assurance that we will achieve results that will permit the payment of any cash distributions and, to the extent that we issue senior securities, we will be prohibited from making distributions if doing so causes us to fail to maintain the asset coverage ratios stipulated by the Investment Company Act or if distributions are limited by the terms of any of our borrowings.

Depending on the level of taxable income and net capital gain earned in a year, we may choose to carry forward taxable income or net capital gain for distribution in the following year and pay the applicable U.S. federal excise tax. Distributions will be appropriately adjusted for any taxes payable by us or any direct or indirect subsidiary through which it invests (including any corporate, state, local, non-U.S. and withholding taxes).

We may generate qualified net interest income or qualified net short-term capital gains that may be exempt from U.S. withholding tax when distributed to foreign unitholders. A RIC is permitted to designate distributions of qualified net interest income and qualified short-term capital gains as exempt from U.S. withholding tax when paid to non-U.S. unitholders with proper documentation.

Recent Developments

Distribution Declaration

On February 6, 2025, our board of directors declared a distribution of $11,000, payable in cash on March 27, 2025 to unitholders of record as of March 17, 2025.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in the valuations of our investment portfolio and interest rates.

Valuation Risk

Our investments often do not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, as the valuation designee appointed by our board of directors pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith and valuation methodologies involve a significant degree of judgment. In addition, our valuation methodology utilizes discount rates in part in valuing our investments, and changes in those discount rates may have an impact on the valuation of our investments. Accordingly, valuations by the Adviser do not necessarily represent the amounts which may eventually be realized from sales or other dispositions of investments. Estimated fair values may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investment existed, and the differences could be material to our consolidated financial statements.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. Changes in interest rates may affect both our cost of funding and our interest income from portfolio investments, cash and cash equivalents and idle funds investments. Our risk management procedures are designed to identify and analyze our risk, to set appropriate policies and to continually monitor these risks. Our investment income will be affected by changes in various interest rates, including SOFR, to the extent our debt investments include floating interest rates.

As of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, 100% of our debt investment portfolio at fair value bore interest at floating rates which had floors ranging from 0.00% to 1.00%. The composition of our floating rate debt investments by interest rate floor as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 was as follows:

	December 31, 2024				September 30, 2024
($ in thousands)	Fair Value		% of Floating Rate Portfolio		Fair Value		% of Floating Rate Portfolio
0%	$	—	—	%	$	40,933	7.19	%
>0% and <1%	544,086		78.48		380,018		66.73

>1%	—		—		—		—
Total	$	693,302	100.00	%	$	569,478	100.00	%

Based on our Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of December 31, 2024, the following table shows the approximate annualized net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates, assuming no changes in our investment and capital structure. However, there can be no assurances our portfolio companies will be able to meet their contractual obligations at any or all levels of increases in interest rates.

Basis point increase ($ in thousands)	Increase in Interest Income		(Increase) in Interest Expense		Net increase in net assets resulting from operations

We regularly measure exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage our interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities. Based on this review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates. The interest rate on the principal balance outstanding for primarily all floating rate loans is indexed to the SOFR and/or an alternate base rate, which typically resets semi-annually, quarterly, or monthly at the borrower's option. The borrower may also elect to have multiple interest reset periods for each loan. The following table shows a comparison of the interest rate base for our outstanding debt investments, at principal, and our outstanding borrowings as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024:

	December 31, 2024				September 30, 2024

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

As of the end of the period covered by this report, management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its chief executive officer and chief financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives, and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the benefits of possible controls and procedures relative to their costs. Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2024, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective, at the reasonable assurance level, in timely identifying, recording, processing, summarizing and reporting any material information relating to us that is required to be disclosed in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II

Item 1.     Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under loans to or other contracts with our portfolio companies. We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, and, to our knowledge, no material legal proceeding is threatened against us.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Except as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors discussed in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2024.

Tariffs may adversely affect us or our portfolio companies.

Existing or new tariffs imposed on foreign goods imported by the United States or on U.S. goods imported by foreign countries could subject us or our portfolio companies to additional risks. Among other effects, tariffs may increase the cost of production for certain of our portfolio companies or reduce demand for their products, which could affect their results of operations. We cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any tariff or other trade protections may affect us or our portfolio companies.

There were no unregistered sales of our equity securities during the three months ended December 31, 2024 that have not been previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K.
