In addition to the other information set forth in this Report, you should consider carefully the factors discussed below, as well as in Part I “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, filed on November 26, 2024, which could materially affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results. The risks as in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, and this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, are not the only risks facing PennantPark Investment Corp. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.

Changes to U.S. tariff and import/export regulations may have a negative effect on our portfolio companies.

There have been significant changes to U.S. trade policies, treaties and tariffs, and in the future there may be additional significant changes.   Existing or new tariffs imposed on foreign goods imported by the U.S. or on U.S. goods imported by foreign countries could subject us or our portfolio companies to additional risks. Among other effects, tariffs may increase the cost of production for certain of our portfolio companies or reduce demand for their products, which could adversely affect their results of operations. We cannot predict whether, or to what extent, any tariff or other trade protections may affect our portfolio companies or our business, financial condition or results of operations.

We are subject to risks associated with cybersecurity and cyber incidents.

Our internal computer systems and infrastructure and those of our Investment Adviser, strategic collaborators, vendors, contractors, consultants or regulators with whom we share confidential, protected or sensitive data or information, or upon which our business relies, are vulnerable to damage from computer viruses, unauthorized access, misuse, natural disasters, terrorism, cybersecurity threats, war and telecommunication and electrical failures, as well as security compromises or breaches, which may compromise our systems, infrastructure, data or that of those with whom we share such data or information or upon which our business relies, or lead to data compromise, misuse, misappropriation or leakage. We may experience, and from time to time have experienced, cyber attacks on our information technology systems and infrastructure by threat actors of all types (including nation states, criminal enterprises, individual actors or advanced persistent threat groups, among others). In addition to extracting sensitive information, such attacks could include the deployment of harmful malware, ransomware, digital extortion, business email compromises and denial-of-service attacks,
