Insights

A strong quarterly performance from OBDC with several positive indicators. Net Investment Income of $0.47 per share significantly exceeded the regular dividend of $0.37, demonstrating robust earnings power with a 12.4% ROE. The portfolio quality improved with non-accruals dropping to 0.7% from 1.4%.

The pending merger with OBDE could create additional scale benefits and operational synergies. The portfolio remains defensively positioned with 75.9% in first-lien senior secured debt. The 11.5% weighted average yield on the portfolio and 96.3% floating rate exposure position the company well in the current rate environment.

The slight NAV decline to $15.28 from $15.36 is minimal given market conditions. Total dividend yield of 11% annualized remains attractive for income-focused investors.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THIRD QUARTER ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2024

Investment Income
Investment income increased to $406.0 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024 from $399.0 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to higher dividend income and was partially offset by a decrease in the yield of our debt investment portfolio. Dividend income increased period-over-period primarily due to an increase in dividends earned from the Company's controlled, affiliated and non-controlled, affiliated equity investments. Other income increased period-over-period primarily due to higher incremental fee income, which are fees received and recognized to OBDC upon closing investments and normally paid at the time of closing. The Company expects that investment income will vary based on a variety of factors including the pace of our originations and repayments.

Expenses
Total expenses increased to $217.6 million for the period ended September 30, 2024 compared to $206.2 million in the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in interest expense and average daily borrowings. As a percentage of total assets, management fees, professional fees, directors' fees and other general and administrative expenses remained relatively consistent period-over-period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of September 30, 2024, the Company had $481.3 million in cash and restricted cash, $7.8 billion in total principal value of debt outstanding, and $1.6 billion of undrawn capacity on the Company's credit facilities. The Company's weighted average interest rate on debt outstanding was 5.8% and 5.6% for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively. Ending net debt-to-equity was 1.23x and 1.20x as of September 30, 2024 and June 30, 2024, respectively.
