Portfolio and Investment Activity

While the business environment remains competitive, we continue to see new investment opportunities consistent with our investment strategy of providing a combination of debt and equity in support of management and independent sponsor-led buyouts of Lower Middle Market companies in the U.S. During the nine months ended December 31, 2024, we invested in four new portfolio companies and exited two portfolio companies. From our initial public offering in June 2005 through December 31, 2024, we have invested in 62 companies, excluding investments in syndicated loans, for a total of approximately $2.0 billion, before giving effect to principal repayments and divestitures.

The majority of the debt securities in our portfolio have a success fee component, which enhances the yield on our debt investments. Unlike paid-in-kind (“PIK”) income, we generally do not recognize success fees as income until payment has been received. Due to the contingent nature of success fees, there are no guarantees that we will be able to collect any or all of these success fees or know the timing of any such collections. As a result, as of December 31, 2024, we had unrecognized, contractual success fees of $52.8 million, or $1.43 per common share. Consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”), we have not recognized success fee receivables and related income in our accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements until earned.

From inception through December 31, 2024, we exited our investments of 32 portfolio companies that we acquired under our buyout strategy (which excludes investments in syndicated loans). In the aggregate, these sales have generated $332.5 million in net realized gains and $42.0 million in other income upon exit, for a total increase to our net assets of $374.5
