    As of September 30, 2025, we had 262 investments in 209 portfolio companies with an aggregate fair value of approximately $1.2 billion. Based on a total fair value of $1.3 billion, including short term investments, the portfolio consisted of 86.10% first lien senior secured debt investments, 4.90% second lien senior secured debt investments, 4.30% short-term investments, 3.60% collateralized loan obligation structured credit funds ("CLOs") mezzanine and equity investments, 0.60% corporate bond investments, and 0.50% equity investments.

    As of September 30, 2025, 98% of the long-term investments based on fair value in our portfolio were at floating rates. At the end of the third quarter, 99.60% of the portfolio at fair value was income producing. There were two portfolio companies on non-accrual status. As of September 30, 2025, the weighted average total yield to maturity of debt and income producing securities at fair value was 10.07%, and weighted average total yield to maturity of debt and income producing securities at amortized cost was 8.00%. For the third quarter of 2025, the principal amount of new investments funded was $138.7 million which included 28 investments at an average value of approximately $4.8 million. For this period, the Company had $156.0 million aggregate principal amount in sales and repayments.

    Liquidity and Capital Resources

    As of September 30, 2025, the Company had $4.2 million in cash and cash equivalents and approximately $752.4 million in total aggregate principal amount of debt outstanding. Subject to borrowing base and other restrictions, the Company had available liquidity, consisting of cash and undrawn capacity on credit facilities of approximately $252.8 million compared to $16.4 million of unfunded investment commitments as of September 30, 2025.

    Recent Developments

    On November 05, 2025, PSBD's Board of Directors announced that it had declared a fourth quarter regular base dividend distribution of $0.36 per share, payable on January 14, 2026, to shareholders of record as of December 29, 2025. We expect to announce an additional quarterly supplemental dividend distribution for the fourth quarter of 2025 in December.

    (Note 9)

     

    As of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company had an aggregate of $16.4 million and $21.6 million, respectively, of unfunded commitments to provide debt financing to its portfolio companies. As of each of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, there were no capital calls or draw requests made by the portfolio companies to fund these commitments. Such commitments are generally up to the Company's discretion to approve or are subject to the satisfaction of certain financial and nonfinancial covenants and involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit risk in excess of the amount recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of assets and liabilities and are not reflected in the Company's consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.

    Prior to the IPO, the base management fee was 2.00% of the average value of the weighted average (based on the number of shares outstanding each day in the quarter) of the Company's total net assets at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The Investment Advisor, however, during any period prior to the IPO, agreed to waive its right to receive management fees in excess of an annual rate of 1.75% of the average value of the weighted average total net assets at the end of each of our two most recently completed calendar quarters. The Investment Advisor will not be permitted to recoup any base management fees waived for any period of time prior to the IPO.

    1. New CLO equity investments do not have an ascribed interest rate and are therefore excluded from the calculation.
    2. Variable rate loans bear interest at a rate determined by reference to the CME Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR" or "S") (which can include one-, three-, or six-month SOFR), which resets periodically based on the terms of the loan agreement. At the borrower's option, loans may instead reference an alternate base rate (which can include the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Prime Rate), which also resets periodically based on the terms of the loan agreements. Loans that reference SOFR may include a Credit Spread Adjustment ("CSA"), where the CSA is a defined additional spread amount based on the tenor of SOFR the borrower selects (making the reference rate S+CSA).
