As of September 30, 2025, based on fair value, our investment portfolio was comprised of the following:
- Total investments of $370.2 million, which was equal to approximately 108% of amortized cost;
- Debt investments of $205.6 million, of which approximately 88% and 12% were first lien and second lien loans, respectively;
- Equity investments of $98.4 million; and
- Structured finance securities of $66.2 million.
During the quarter ended September 30, 2025, loans to a portfolio company with an aggregate amortized cost and fair value of $8.9 million and $6.8 million, respectively, were placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, a loan to a portfolio company with an amortized cost and fair value of $4.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, was restructured in exchange for a combination of a new loan and equity in the portfolio company. Following the restructuring, the loan we received with an amortized cost and fair value of $1.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, was placed on accrual status. As of September 30, 2025, our loan portfolio had non-accrual loans with an aggregate fair value of $23.1 million, or 6.2% of our total investments at fair value.
OUTSTANDING DEBT
As previously announced, on July 23, 2025, we closed the public offering of $69.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 7.50% unsecured notes due July 31, 2028 (the “Unsecured Notes Due July 2028”) for net proceeds to us of $67.3 million, after deducting underwriting fees and offering expenses of $1.7 million. We may redeem the Unsecured Notes Due July 2028 in whole or in part at any time, or from time to time, on or after July 31, 2026.
On August 8, 2025, we sold, in a private placement transaction, a $25.0 million principal amount 8.00% Unsecured Note Due August 2029 for net proceeds to us of $24.2 million, after deducting discounts and offering expenses of $0.8 million. We may redeem the Unsecured Note Due August 2029 in whole or in part at any time.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025, we used the proceeds from the Unsecured Notes Due July 2028 and Unsecured Note Due August 2029 to redeem $94.0 million of our 4.75% unsecured notes due February 10, 2026, resulting in a leverage-neutral refinancing.
As of September 30, 2025, approximately 62% of our outstanding debt matures in more than two years and 75% of our outstanding debt is unsecured. As of September 30, 2025, our regulatory asset coverage ratio of 157% exceeded the minimum asset coverage requirement of 150% under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
During the three months ended September 30, 2025 and June 30, 2025, the average dollar borrowings and weighted-average effective interest rate for our debt were as follows ($ in millions):

Investment Income
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, total investment income increased to $10.6 million from $10.5 million in the prior quarter, primarily due to an increase in non-recurring income (cash dividends, acceleration of Net Loan Fee amortization and other interest income), partially offset by a decrease in interest income on our loan portfolio, attributable to the placement of loans to a portfolio company on non-accrual status.
Expenses
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, total expenses increased by $0.4 million to $7.6 million compared to the prior quarter, primarily due to an increase in interest expense of $0.7 million due to the refinancing of 4.75% unsecured notes due February 10, 2026 with new unsecured notes that carry a weighted-average coupon of 7.63%, partially offset by a decrease in incentive fees of $0.2 million.
Net Gain (Loss) on Investments
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a net loss on investments of $7.8 million due to a net realized loss of $4.6 million and net unrealized depreciation of $3.1 million, net of taxes.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, our net realized loss of $4.6 million was primarily due to a net realized loss of $3.4 million related to the sale of a debt investment, resulting in a current quarter impact to our net asset value of $1.1 million.
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, our net unrealized depreciation of $3.1 million, net of taxes, was primarily due to net unrealized depreciation of $4.5 million on our common equity investment in Pfanstiehl Holdings, Inc.
Loss on Extinguishment of Debt
For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, we recognized a loss on extinguishment of debt of $0.5 million, or $0.04 per share, related to the redemption of $94.0 million of 4.75% unsecured notes due February 10, 2026 and our election to reduce the maximum facility amount on our revolving credit facility with BNP Paribas from $150.0 million to $80.0 million.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
As of September 30, 2025, we had $5.0 million in cash and cash equivalents, which includes $2.5 million held by OFSCC-FS, LLC (“OFSCC-FS”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary. Our use of cash held by OFSCC-FS is restricted by contractual conditions of our credit facility with BNP Paribas, including limitations on the amount of cash OFSCC-FS can distribute to us.
The reinvestment period of our credit facility with BNP Paribas expired on September 30, 2025, after which the ability to access the unused commitment of the facility terminated. The facility is scheduled to mature on June 20, 2027.
As of September 30, 2025, we had an unused commitment of $25.0 million under our senior secured revolving credit facility with Banc of California, subject to the terms of the borrowing base and other covenants.
As of September 30, 2025, we had outstanding commitments to fund various undrawn revolvers and other credit facilities of portfolio companies totaling $18.3 million.
