(1) Represents weighted average yield on total debt investments for the three months ended June 30, 2023. Weighted average yield on total debt investments is the annualized rate of interest income recognized during the period divided by the average amortized cost of debt investments in the portfolio during the period. The weighted average yield on total debt investments reflected above does not represent actual investment returns to the Company's stockholders.

Mr. Michael C. Mauer, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, said "We continue to focus on managing the portfolio in this inflationary environment; specifically focusing on the diversity of our investments, reducing average position sizes, and working with borrowers and sponsors where covenant or liquidity issues exist. Our expectation is that well-capitalized companies with strong sponsor backing will continue to outperform over the coming quarters."

The Company's dividend framework provides a quarterly base dividend and may be supplemented, at the discretion of the Board, by additional dividends as determined to be available by the Company's net investment income and performance during the quarter.

On September 14, 2023, the Board declared a distribution for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 of $0.12 per share payable on November 2, 2023 to stockholders of record as of October 12, 2023 and a supplemental distribution of $0.03 per share, payable on November 2, 2023, to stockholders of record as of October 12, 2023.

This distribution represents a 16.57% yield on the Company's $3.62 share price as of market close on June 30, 2023. Distributions may include net investment income, capital gains and/or return of capital, however, the Company does not expect the dividend for the quarter ending June 30, 2023, to be comprised of a return of capital. The Company's investment adviser monitors available taxable earnings, including net investment income and realized capital gains, to determine if a return of capital may occur for the year. The Company estimates the source of its distributions as required by Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940 to determine whether payment of dividends are expected to be paid from any other source other than net investment income accrued for the current period or certain cumulative periods, but the Company will not be able to determine whether any specific distribution will be treated as taxable earnings or as a return of capital until after at the end of the taxable year.

Portfolio and Investment Activities

During the quarter, the Company made investments in two new portfolio companies and two existing portfolio companies. The aggregate capital invested during the quarter totaled $15.1 million, at cost, and the debt investments were made at a weighted average yield of 15.48%.

The Company received proceeds of $8.7 million from repayments, sales and amortization during the quarter, primarily related to the realization of Altern Marketing, LLC.

During the quarter, the Company had net advances of $0.9 million on its existing and new delayed draw and revolving credit commitments to portfolio companies.

The Company's net realized, and unrealized gains and losses accounted for a decrease in the Company's net investments of approximately $131,000, or $0.01 per share. The total net increase in net assets resulting from operations for the quarter was $2.1 million, or $0.14 per share.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company's investment portfolio consisted of investments in 36 portfolio companies, of which 89.21% were first lien investments and 10.79% were equity, warrants, and other investments. The Company's debt portfolio consisted of 99.6% floating rate investments and 0.4% fixed rate investments.
