**Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements**

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q ("Report") contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and are subject to the safe harbor created thereby, about our business, including, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies and objectives. You can generally identify forward-looking statements by our use of forward-looking terminology such as "may," "will," "expect," "intend," "anticipate," "project," "estimate," "believe," "continue" or the negatives thereof or other similar words. These statements include our plans and objectives for future operations, including plans and objectives relating to future growth and availability of funds, our future operating results; our business prospects and the prospects of our Portfolio Companies (as defined below); changes in the economy; risk associated with possible disruptions in our operations or the economy generally; the impact of global health epidemics on our and our Portfolio Companies' business and the global economy; the impact of treaties, tariffs and import/export policies on global trade; the effect of investments that we expect to make; our contractual arrangements and relationships with third parties; actual and potential conflicts of interest with our Adviser and its affiliates; the dependence of our future success on the general economy and its effect on the industries in which we invest, including as a result of inflation; the ability of our Portfolio Companies to achieve their objectives; the use of borrowed money to finance a portion of our investments, including the consequences of interest rate increases; the adequacy of our financing sources and working capital; the timing of cash flows, if any, from the operations of our Portfolio Companies; the ability of our Adviser to locate suitable investments for us and to monitor and administer our investments; the ability of our Adviser and its affiliates to attract and retain highly talented professionals; our ability to qualify and maintain our qualification as a BDC; and the effect of changes in laws or regulations affecting our operations or to tax legislation and its tax position, and are based on current expectations that involve numerous risks and uncertainties. Assumptions relating to these statements involve judgments with respect to, among other things, future economic, competitive and market conditions and future business decisions, all of which are difficult or impossible to accurately predict and many of which are beyond our control. Although we believe the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements, and the forward-looking statements themselves, are reasonable, any of the assumptions could be inaccurate and, therefore, there can be no assurance that these forward-looking statements will prove to be accurate and our actual results, performance and achievements may be materially different from that expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in these forward-looking statements, the inclusion of this information should not be regarded as a representation by us or any other person that our objectives and plans, which we consider to be reasonable, will be achieved.

These and other important factors, including those discussed in this Report and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 under "Risk Factors" and in any subsequent filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements in this Report are made only as of the date hereof, and unless otherwise required by applicable securities laws, we disclaim any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Unless otherwise indicated, investments held by the Fund (which such term "Fund" shall include the Fund's consolidated subsidiaries for purposes of this Consolidated Schedule of Investments) are denominated in U.S. dollars ("$" or "USD"). All investments are income producing unless otherwise indicated. Certain portfolio company investments are subject to contractual restrictions on sales. The total par amount/units are presented for investments. Par amount is denominated in USD unless otherwise noted, Canadian Dollars ("CAD").

(2) Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to either CORRA ("C"), SOFR ("S") or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the U.S. Prime Rate ("P"), each of which generally resets periodically. For each loan, the Fund has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of March 31, 2026. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at March 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026, the reference rates for our variable rate loans were the 3-month C at 2.29%, 1-month S at 3.66%, 3-month S at 3.68%, 6-month S at 3.70%, and the P at 6.75%.

(3) The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on loan investments using the effective interest method in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

(4) Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. The negative cost, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. See Note 7 "Commitments & Contingencies".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Variable rate loans to the portfolio companies bear interest at a rate that is determined by reference to either CORRA ("C"), SOFR ("S") or an alternate base rate (commonly based on the U.S. Prime Rate ("P"), each of which generally resets periodically. For each loan, the Fund has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2025. For investments with multiple reference rates or alternate base rates, the interest rate shown is the weighted average interest rate in effect at December 31, 2025. As of December 31, 2025, the reference rates for our variable rate loans were the 3-month C at 2.26%, 1-month S at 3.69%, 3-month S at 3.65%, 6-month S at 3.57%, and the P at 6.75%.

(3) The cost represents the original cost adjusted for the amortization of discounts and premiums, as applicable, on loan investments using the effective interest method in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP").

(4) Position or portion thereof is an unfunded loan commitment, and no interest is being earned on the unfunded portion. The unfunded loan commitment may be subject to a commitment termination date that may expire prior to the maturity date stated. The negative cost, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount being greater than the principal amount outstanding on the loan. The negative fair value, if applicable, is the result of the capitalized discount on the loan. See Note 7 "Commitments & Contingencies".

**Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC**

**Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements**

**March 31, 2026**

***(in thousands, except unit and per share amounts)***

**(Unaudited)**

**Note 1. Organization** 

Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC, was initially formed on June 16, 2022 as a Delaware corporation and subsequently converted into a Delaware limited liability company on July 12, 2023. Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC consists of Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC and its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Partners Group BDC Finance I, LLC and Partners Group Revolver Pooling BDC, LLC (collectively, the "Fund"). The Fund commenced operations on September 1, 2023 (commencement of operations) and its fiscal year ends on December 31.

The Fund is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that elected to be regulated as a business development company ("BDC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). In addition, the Fund has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

Pursuant to an investment advisory agreement between the Fund and the Adviser (the "Investment Advisory Agreement"), the Fund is managed by Partners Group (USA) Inc. (the "Adviser"). The Adviser is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Advisers Act"). The Board of Managers of the Fund (collectively, the "Board" and each member thereof a "Manager") has oversight responsibility for the management and supervision of the business operations of the Fund. As permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate any of its rights, powers and authority to, among others, the officers of the Fund, a committee of the Board, or the Adviser, as it did in causing the Fund to enter into the Investment Advisory Agreement.

The investment objective of the Fund is to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns and current income by primarily investing in a geographically and industrially well-balanced and broadly distributed portfolio of primarily senior secured loans, which will typically pay interest composed of SOFR, plus a margin, of private middle market U.S. companies.

**Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies** 

***Basis of Presentation***

 ****

The Fund's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946, Financial Services – *Investment Companies* ("ASC 946")*.* The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. Dollars.

 

***Consolidation***

 ****

As provided under ASC 946, the Fund does not consolidate its investment in a company other than an investment company subsidiary or a controlled operating company whose business consists of providing services to the Fund.

The Fund consolidated the results of its wholly-owned subsidiaries: Partners Group BDC Finance I, LLC and Partners Group Revolver Pooling BDC, LLC. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

***Use of Estimates***

 ****

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of gain and loss contingencies at the date of the consolidated financial statements. Such amounts could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results may ultimately differ from those estimates.

***Cash and Cash Equivalents***

 ****

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments, such as money market funds, with original maturities of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. The Fund deposits its cash and cash equivalents with financial institutions and, at times, may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

The fair value of the Cash Equivalents is measured under Level 1 under ASC 820-10.

***Investment Related Transactions, Revenue Recognition and Expenses***

 ****

The Fund invests primarily in private illiquid debt, loans and other assets for which no (or only a limited) liquid market exists or that are subject to legal or other restrictions on transfer and are difficult to sell in a secondary market. These securities are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and may be deemed to be "restricted securities". Investment transactions in restricted securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Restricted securities are valued in accordance with the investment valuation policies discussed below.

Investment transactions are recorded on a trade-date basis. Realized gains (losses) on investments sold are recorded upon the sale or liquidation of investments and are calculated as the difference between the net proceeds from the sale or liquidation, if any, and the cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method. Unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the difference between the fair value of the investments and the cost basis of the investments. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortizations of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.

In the general course of its business, the Fund receives certain fees from portfolio companies, which are non-recurring in nature. Such fees include loan prepayment penalties, structuring fees and loan waiver amendment fees, and commitment fees, and are recorded as other income in investment income when earned.

Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind ("PIK") interest. PIK interest is added to the principal amount of the investment on the interest payment date rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon the investment being called by the issuer. PIK interest is recorded as interest income.

Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

***Non-Accrual Investments***

Loans or debt securities are placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected. Accrued interest generally is reversed when a loan or debt security is placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans or debt securities may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment. Non-accrual loans and debt securities are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid and, in management's judgment, principal and interest payments are likely to remain current. The Fund may make exceptions to this treatment if a loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, there were no loans placed on non-accrual status.

***Valuation of Investments***

 ****

The Fund is required to report its investments, including those for which current market values are not readily available, at fair value. Investments held by the Fund include senior secured debt, preferred equity, and asset-asset backed securities (collectively, "Direct Investments) and partnership investments ("Partnership Investments").

The Fund's investments are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement ("ASC 820"), which defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the applicable measurement date, and Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act ("Rule 2a-5"). Pursuant Rule 2a-5, the Board designated the Adviser as "valuation designee" to perform fair value determinations and approved amended Valuation Procedures.

Fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters when such quotations are readily available. In accordance with Rule 2a-5, a market quotation is "readily available" only when it is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments that a fund can access at the measurement date, provided that such a quotation is not considered to be readily available if it is not reliable.

The Adviser, as "valuation designee" under Rule 2a-5, determines the fair value of the Fund's investments in conformity with U.S. GAAP, Rule 2a-5, and the Fund's Valuation Procedures. As permitted by the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser values the Fund's non-traded Investments in consultation with persons who are employees of the Adviser's parent company or one of its subsidiaries. The Valuation Procedures require evaluation of all relevant factors reasonably available to the Adviser and its affiliates at the time the Fund's non-traded Investments are valued.

**Direct Investments**

In assessing the fair value of the Fund's non-traded senior secured debt and preferred equity investments in accordance with the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser uses a variety of methods such as earnings multiples, discounted cash flow and market data from third party pricing services. The Adviser makes valuation assumptions based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for certain similar instruments are used for debt investments where appropriate. Other techniques, such as option pricing models and estimated discounted value of future cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments. The fair values of asset-backed securities are determined by price quotations from unaffiliated market makers, financial institutions that regularly trade similar investments or independent valuation agents using industry standard valuation models.

Because of the inherent uncertainty of estimates, fair value determinations based on estimates may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material.

**Partnership Investments**

The fair values of partnership investments determined by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Procedures are estimates. These estimates are net of management and performance incentive fees or allocations payable pursuant to the respective organizational documents of the partnership investments. Ordinarily, the fair value of a partnership investment is based on the net asset value of that partnership reported by its investment manager. If the Adviser determines that the most recent net asset value reported by the investment manager of a partnership investment does not represent fair value or if the manager of a partnership investment fails to report a net asset value to the Fund, a fair value determination is made by the Adviser in accordance with the Valuation Procedures. In making that determination, the Adviser will consider whether it is appropriate, considering all relevant circumstances, to value such partnership investment at the net asset value last reported by its investment manager, or whether to adjust such value by a premium or discount.

Because of the inherent uncertainty of estimates, fair value determinations based on estimates may differ from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material. For each of the Fund's partnership investment(s) (for the purposes of this paragraph, an "Investee"), the Fund has no right to cause the Investee or any third party to purchase the Fund's investment in the Investee, at the end of the term of such investment, or any other time. Accordingly, in a typical partnership investment, the Fund expects to realize the value remaining in its investment at the end of the investment's term through distributions resulting from the liquidation of the remaining assets of the Investee.

The Valuation Procedures are implemented by the Adviser and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as the Fund's administrator (the "Administrator"). Both the Adviser and the Administrator are subject to the oversight of, and report to, the Board. The Adviser and the Administrator monitor and review the methodologies of the various third-party pricing services that are employed by the Fund.

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates act as investment advisers to clients other than the Fund. However, the valuation attributed to a non-traded Investment held by the Fund and to the same non-traded Investment held by another client, one of the Adviser's affiliates, or by a client of one of its affiliates might differ due to differences in accounting, regulatory or other factors applicable to the Fund, to such other client or the Adviser's affiliate.

ASC 820 prioritizes the use of observable market prices derived from such prices over entity-specific inputs. Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material.

The Fund applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. The Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy which prioritizes and ranks the level of market observability used in the determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

● Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

● Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument's level within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period in which the transfers occur. The Fund evaluates the source of inputs used in the determination of fair value, including any markets in which the investments, or similar investments, are trading. When the fair value of an investment is determined using inputs from a pricing service (or principal market makers), the Fund considers various criteria in determining whether the investment should be classified as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. Criteria considered includes the pricing methodologies of the pricing services (or principal market makers) to determine if the inputs to the valuation are observable or unobservable, as well as the number of prices obtained and an assessment of the quality of the prices obtained. However, the determination of what constitutes "observable" requires significant judgment.

The fair value assigned to these investments is based upon available information and may fluctuate from period to period. In addition, it does not necessarily represent the amount that might ultimately be realized upon sale.

The Valuation Designee generally uses the income approach to determine fair value for loans where market quotations are not readily available, as long as it is appropriate. If there is deterioration in credit quality or a debt investment is in workout status, the Valuation Designee may consider other factors in determining the fair value, including the value attributable to the debt investment from the enterprise value of the portfolio company or the proceeds that would be received in a liquidation analysis. This liquidation analysis may also include probability weighting of alternative outcomes. The Valuation Designee generally considers our debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance and the loan is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing debt, the Valuation Designee considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Valuation Designee will evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the debt instrument.

Under the income approach, discounted cash flow models are utilized to determine the present value of the future cash flow streams of our debt investments, based on future interest and principal payments as set forth in the associated loan agreements. In determining fair value under the income approach, the Valuation Designee also considers the following factors: applicable market yields and leverage levels, recent transactions, credit quality, prepayment penalties, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that generally may affect the price at which similar investments may be made.

Under the market approach, the enterprise value methodology is typically utilized to determine the fair value of an investment. There is no one methodology to estimate enterprise value and, in fact, for any one portfolio company, enterprise value is generally best expressed as a range of values, from which the Valuation Designee derives a single estimate of enterprise value. In estimating the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the Valuation Designee analyzes various factors consistent with industry practice, including but not limited to original transaction multiples, the portfolio company's historical and projected financial results, applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and leverage levels, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, and comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public. Typically, the enterprise values of private companies are based on multiples of earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), cash flows, net income, revenues, or in limited cases, book value.

***Receivables/Payables From Investments Sold/Purchased***

 ****

Receivables/payables from investments sold/purchased consist of amounts receivable to or payable by the Fund for transactions that have not settled at the reporting date. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Fund had $57 thousand and $112 thousand of receivables for investments sold respectively. As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Fund had $2,538 thousand and $0 of payables for investments purchased respectively.

***Foreign Currency Transactions***

 ****

Amounts denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: (i) investments and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates effective on the last business day of the period; and (ii) purchases and sales of investments, borrowings and repayments of such borrowings, income, and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based upon currency exchange rates prevailing on the transaction dates.

The Fund includes net changes in fair values on investments held resulting from foreign exchange rate fluctuations in foreign currency and other transactions, if any, in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to, currency fluctuations and revaluations and future adverse political, social and economic developments, which could cause investments in foreign markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies or U.S. government securities.

 **

***Organization Expenses***

 **

Costs associated with the organization of the Fund are expensed as incurred. These expenses consist primarily of legal fees and other costs of organizing the Fund.

***Credit Facility Related Costs, Expenses and Deferred Financing Costs***

The Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) is recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value. Interest expense and unused commitment fees on the Credit Facility are recorded on an accrual basis. Unused commitment fees are included in interest and borrowing expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Deferred financing costs include capitalized expenses related to the closing of the Credit Facility. Amortization of deferred financing costs is computed on the straight-line basis over the stated term of the line of credit. The amortization of such costs is included in interest and borrowing expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations, with any unamortized amounts included in Deferred financing costs on the Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

***Income Taxes***

The Fund recognizes tax positions in its consolidated financial statements only when it is more likely than not that the relevant taxing authority will, upon examination, sustain the position based on its merits. A position that meets this standard is measured at the maximum benefit that will more likely than not be realized upon settlement. The Fund classifies any interest expense related to income taxes in income tax expense, and any income tax penalties under expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the Fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

State and federal deferred income tax assets or liabilities are computed based on the difference between the consolidated financial statement and income tax bases of assets and liabilities, using the enacted statutory tax rate. Deferred income tax expenses or benefits are based on the changes in the assets and liabilities from period to period.

The Fund's tax positions have been reviewed based on applicable statutes of limitation for tax assessments, which may vary by jurisdiction. Based on this review, the Fund has concluded that the Fund's net deferred tax liability at March 31, 2026, was $0 and December 31, 2025, was $265 thousand. This deferred tax liability primarily represents the estimated future tax liability that would be due if the unrealized gains were realized as of the balance sheet date. The Fund is subject to potential examination by certain taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. The Fund's tax positions are subject to ongoing interpretation of laws and regulations by taxing authorities.

The Fund will file tax returns as prescribed by the tax laws of the jurisdictions in which it operates. In the normal course of business, The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal, state, local and foreign jurisdictions, where applicable. As of March 31, 2026, the tax years from the initial period forward remain subject to examination by the major tax jurisdictions under the statute of limitations.

The Fund elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act on December 19, 2025. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund intends to elect and qualify each taxable year hereafter, to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, beginning with its fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. So long as the Fund maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its shareholders as distributions. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Fund would represent obligations of the Fund's investors and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Fund. Income earned or loss incurred by the Fund prior to qualifying as a RIC is not attributable to the shareholders of the RIC. As such, income or loss from this period is excluded from the RIC's taxable income calculation.

To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Fund must distribute to its shareholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of its "investment company taxable income" for that year, which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses.

Amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a non deductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax. To prevent imposition of the excise tax, the Fund must distribute during each calendar year an amount at least equal to the sum of (i) 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year, (ii) 98.2% of its capital gains in excess of its capital losses (adjusted for certain ordinary losses) for the one-year period ending December 31 of the calendar year and (iii) any ordinary income and capital gains for previous years that were not distributed during those years. For these purposes, the Fund will be deemed to have distributed any income or gains on which it paid U.S. federal income tax.

***Distributions and Distribution Reinvestment Plan***

Distributions to members will be recorded on the record date. Income dividends and gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax rules and regulations that may differ in various (or significant) respects from generally accepted accounting principles. Certain capital accounts in the consolidated financial statements have been adjusted for permanent book-tax differences. These adjustments have no impact on net asset values or results of operations. The Fund has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan, pursuant to which we will reinvest all cash distributions declared on behalf of members who do not elect to receive their distributions in cash. As a result, if a cash distribution or other distribution is authorized and declared, then members who have not opted out of our distribution reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional units, rather than receiving the cash distribution or other distribution. Distributions on fractional units will be credited to each participating member's account to three decimal places.

***Recent Accounting Pronouncements***

 ****

The Fund considers the applicability and impact of all accounting standard updates ("ASU") issued by the FASB. ASUs not listed were assessed by the Fund and either determined to be not applicable or not expected to have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07")," which enhances disclosure requirements about significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (the "CODM"). ASU 2023-07, among other things, (i) requires a single segment public entity to provide all of the disclosures as required by ASC 280, (ii) requires a public entity to disclose the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources and (iii) provides the ability for a public entity to elect more than one performance measure. ASU 2023-07 is effective for the fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2025. The Fund has adopted ASU 2023-07 effective December 31, 2024 and concluded that the application of this guidance impacted the notes to the consolidated financial statements only and did not affect the Fund's financial position or the results of its operations. See Note 8 for more information on the effects of the adoption of ASU 2023-07.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures ("ASU 2023-09")," which intends to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures. ASU No. 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact to the Fund's consolidated financial statements.

**Note 3. Fees, Expenses, Agreements and Related Party Transactions** 

***Investment Advisory Agreement***

On August 31, 2023, the Fund entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement, pursuant to which the Adviser managers the Fund on a day-to-day basis. The Adviser is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring the Fund's investments and monitoring its investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis.

The Investment Advisory Agreement is effective for an initial two-year term and will remain in effect from year-to-year thereafter if approved annually by a majority of the Board or by the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities and, in each case, a majority of the independent trustees. The Fund may terminate the Investment Advisory Agreement, without payment of any penalty, upon 60 days' written notice. The Investment Advisory Agreement will automatically terminate in the event of its assignment within the meaning of the 1940 Act and related SEC guidance and interpretations.

The Fund pays the Adviser a fee for its services under the Investment Advisory Agreement consisting of two components: a management fee and an incentive fee. The cost of both the management fee and the incentive fee will ultimately be borne by the members.

***Base Management Fee***

 ****

The base management fee will be payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.00% of the value of the Fund's adjusted net assets as of the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter. For purposes of the Investment Advisory Agreement, adjusted net assets means the Fund's total net assets less any base management fees and incentive fees incurred by the Fund with respect to such calendar quarter end. The base management fee calculation will be prorated for any partial quarters.

The Adviser agreed to waive any base management fee due from the Fund to the Adviser until the earlier of (1) the Fund electing to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and (2) October 1, 2023.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the Fund incurred base management fees of $683 thousand of which $0 was waived and $438 thousand of which $0 was waived, respectively.

***Incentive Fee***

 

The Fund will pay to the Adviser an income-based incentive fee at the close of each fiscal year in which the Hurdle Rate (defined below) is exceeded, of 10% of the excess, if any, of (i) the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains (as defined below) of the Fund over (ii) the then balance, if any, of the respective Loss Recovery Account (as defined below) for the Units (each expressed as a percentage of the Fund's fiscal year-end net asset value) before deduction of the Incentive Fee.

● No Incentive Fee will be payable to the Adviser if, at the close of a fiscal year, the excess, if any, of (i) the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains of the Fund, attributable to the Units (based on the net asset value of the Fund's assets) over (ii) the then balance, if any, of the Loss Recovery Account for the Units (expressed as a percentage of the Fund's net asset value) does not exceed 6.00% of the monthly average of the Fund's net asset value attributable to the Units (based on the net asset value of the Fund's assets) before deduction of the Incentive Fee for that fiscal year (the "Hurdle Rate").

● The Incentive Fee will be subject to a catch-up intended to allocate all excess Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains, attributable to the Units, to the Adviser once the Hurdle Rate has been achieved until the Adviser has been allocated its 10% Incentive Fee on all Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains for the relevant period.

● "Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains" means the amount by which any interest income, dividend income, realized and unrealized gains, and any other income accrued on investments of the Fund during the fiscal year ("Gains") exceeds all operating expenses for the Fund and realized and unrealized losses for the fiscal year (including costs related to hedging, as well as the Base Management Fee, but excluding the Incentive Fee) ("Losses"). For this purpose, net losses shall mean the amount by which Losses exceed Gains ("Net Losses").

● After the close of the fiscal year, the Adviser or an affiliate thereof may withdraw up to 100% of the Incentive Fee (computed on the basis of unaudited data) that was credited to the incentive fee account and debited from that Unit's account with respect to such fiscal year.

● The Fund will maintain a memorandum account for the Units (each a "Loss Recovery Account"), which will have an initial balance of zero and will be (i) increased upon the close of each fiscal year of the Fund by the amount of the Net Losses of the Fund for the fiscal year (based on of the net asset value of the Fund's assets), and (ii) decreased (but not below zero) upon the close of each fiscal year of the Fund by the amount of the Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains of the Fund for the fiscal year.

The Adviser agreed to waive any incentive fee due from the Fund to the Adviser until the earlier of (1) the Fund electing to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act and (2) October 1, 2023.

On July 1, 2025, the Fund entered into the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement. The Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement limits the portion of the Incentive Fee sourced from capital gains such that it will not exceed 20.0% of the Fund's realized capital gains on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each fiscal year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any Incentive Fees sourced from capital gains previously paid. The Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement also removed unrealized gains from the definition of Pre-Incentive Fee Net Gains.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the Fund incurred incentive fees of $0 thousand of which $0 was waived, and $352 thousand of which $0 was waived respectively.

***Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement***

On August 31, 2023, the Fund entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement with the Adviser (the "Expense Support Agreement"). Under the terms of the Expense Support Agreement, the Adviser (i) shall pay a portion of the Fund's Other Operating Expenses (as defined below) to the effect that such expenses do not exceed 1.00% (on annualized basis) of the Fund's Aggregate Capital Commitments, and (ii) may elect to pay an additional portion of the Fund's expenses from time to time, which the Fund will be obligated to reimburse to the Adviser at a later date if certain conditions are met. "Aggregate Capital Commitments" means the sum of all capital commitments made pursuant to subscription agreements between investors and the Fund, and all amounts paid to the Fund by upfront cash payments in connection with investors purchase of the Fund's units. "Other Operating Expenses" means the Fund's organization and offering expenses, professional fees, directors fees, administration fees, and other general and administrative expenses, but excluding the Base Management Fee, taxes, interest expense, brokerage commissions, transaction-related expenses arising out of investments made by the Fund, credit facility arrangement fees, servicing fees and the Incentive Fees.

In addition, the Adviser agrees to waive the Base Management Fee payable to it (excluding the Incentive Fee) by the Fund and/or to pay or absorb expenses of the Fund (collectively, a "Waiver") so that the Other Operating Expenses of the Fund will not exceed 1.00% (on annualized basis) of the Fund's Aggregate Capital Commitments (the "Expense Limitation").

The Fund agrees to carry forward, for a period not to exceed (3) three years from the date on which a Waiver is made by the Adviser, all fees and expenses in excess of the Expense Limitation that have been waived, paid or absorbed by the Adviser, and to repay the Adviser such amounts, provided the Fund is able to effect such repayment and remain in compliance with the Expense Limitation. To the extent that such repayment is due, it shall be made as promptly as possible, in conjunction with the next succeeding payment of the Base Management Fee to the Adviser. To the extent that the full amount of such waived amount or expense paid cannot be repaid as provided in the previous sentence within such applicable three-year period, such repayment obligation shall be extinguished.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the Adviser made no support payments on behalf of the Fund. For the three months ended March 31, 2026, and March 31, 2025, the Fund made no reimbursement payments to the Adviser.

As of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025, the Fund had a receivable from the Adviser for expense support payments of $0 and $0, respectively.

***Board of Directors' Fees***

 ****

The Fund pays an annual fee to each Independent Director of $40 thousand. The Fund pays an additional annual fee of $10 thousand to the Chairman of the Board, the Chairman of the Audit Committee, the Chairman of the Nominating Committee, and to each Independent Director that is not the Chair of a Committee. The Fund also reimburses the expenses of the Independent Directors incurred in connection with their services as Independent Directors. The Independent Directors do not receive any pension or retirement benefits from the Fund.

<sup>(1)</sup> Weighted averages are calculated based on fair value of investments.

The Fund used the income approach to determine the fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of March 31, 2026, and December 31, 2025. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach is the comparative yield and discount rate. The comparative yield and discount rate is used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment. An increase/decrease in the comparative yield or discount rate would result in a decrease/increase, respectively, in the fair value.

*Financial Instruments Disclosed, But Not Carried, At Fair Value* 

 

The carrying values of the debt obligations (Note 6) generally approximate their respective fair values due to their variable interest rates. The fair value of these debt obligations would be categorized as Level 2 under the ASC 820 hierarchy. The carrying value of other financial assets and liabilities approximates their fair value based on the short-term nature of these items.

**Note 11. Tax Information**

The Fund elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act on December 19, 2025. In addition, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Fund intends to elect and qualify each taxable year hereafter, to be treated as a RIC under the Code, beginning with its fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Income or loss earned by the Fund prior to the period in which it elected to be treated as a RIC is not attributable to the shareholders of the RIC.

Prior to the period in which the Fund elected to be treated as a RIC, Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC was classified as an association taxable as a Corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes. Partners Group BDC Finance I, LLC and Partners Group Revolver Pooling BDC, LLC are treated as disregarded entities and, as such, all activities at these entities shall be reported and taxed on Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC's U.S. federal tax return. For the tax year ended December 31, 2025, in accordance with U.S. federal tax laws, Partners Group Lending Fund, LLC's taxable income is subject to federal taxes at a 21% rate and state taxes at a 0% rate.

ASC Topic 740, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("ASC 740") provides guidance on the accounting for and disclosure of uncertainty in tax position. ASC 740 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold are recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Based on its analysis of its tax position for all open tax years (the current and prior years, as applicable), the Adviser has concluded that the Fund does not have any uncertain tax positions that met the recognition or measurement criteria of ASC 740. Such open tax years remain subject to examination and adjustment by tax authorities.

**Note 13. Subsequent Events**

The Fund's management evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements. There have been no subsequent events that occurred during such period that would require disclosure in, or would be required to be recognized in, these consolidated financial statements, except as discussed below.

*<u>Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement</u>*

 

On April 1, 2026, the Fund and the Adviser entered into an Amended and Restated Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the "Amended Expense Agreement"), which amended certain provisions of the Expense Support Agreement.

Under the Expense Support Agreement, the Adviser waived the Base Management Fee, paid and/or absorbed a portion of the Fund's Other Operating Expenses in order that such expenses do not exceed 1.00% (on an annualized basis) of the Fund's Aggregate Capital Commitments (as such terms were defined in the Expense Support Agreement, and, such limit, the "Expense Limitation").

The Amended Expense Agreement modifies the Expense Limitation such that Other Operating Expenses shall not exceed 1.00% of the Fund's net asset value rather than capital commitments. The Amended Expense Agreement has a term of one year and will automatically renew for additional one-year periods unless terminated on 30 days' written notice.

*<u>Subscriptions</u>*

 

As of April 1, 2026, the Fund sold its Class M and Class I units (the "Units") as listed in the table below. The number of Units to be issued was finalized on April 28, 2026. The offer and sale of the Units was made pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, Regulation D promulgated thereunder and other available exemptions from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to investors who are "accredited investors" within the meaning of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

The Fund received $59.9 thousand of net proceeds relating to the issuance of Class I and Class M units for subscriptions effective May 1, 2026. The number of units to be issued for subscriptions effective May 1, 2026 has not yet been determined since the issuance price is not yet finalized at the date of this filing.

**Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations**

**Overview**

We are an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We initially incorporated as a Delaware corporation on June 16, 2022, and we filed a certificate of conversion with the Delaware Secretary of State to convert into a Delaware limited liability company on July 12, 2023. We are externally managed by the Adviser, which manages our day-to-day operations and provides us with investment advisory services pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement. The Adviser is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC. We have elected to be treated, and intend to qualify each taxable year hereafter as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

The Adviser oversees (subject to the oversight of the members of the Board, a majority of whom are not "interested persons" of either the Fund or the Adviser, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) the management of our operations and is responsible for making investment decisions with respect to our portfolio pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay the Adviser the Base Management Fee as well as the Incentive Fee based on our investment performance.

**Recent Developments**

On April 1, 2026 we entered into an Amended and Restated Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement (the "Amended Expense Agreement") with the Adviser, which amended certain provisions of the original Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement dated August 31, 2023 (the "Original Agreement"). The Amended Expense Agreement modified the Expense Limitation such that Other Operating Expenses shall not exceed 1.00% of the Fund's net asset value rather than capital commitments.

On February 27, 2026, the Fund completed a 5-for-1 stock split. The common units and net asset value per unit have been adjusted retroactively to reflect the split for all periods presented.

**Key components of our results of operations**

***Investments***

Our investment objectives are to generate attractive risk-adjusted returns and current income by primarily investing in a geographically and industrially well-balanced and broadly distributed portfolio of primarily senior secured loans, which will typically pay interest composed of SOFR/EURIBOR/CORRA/other base rates, plus a margin, to private middle market U.S. companies. As part of our strategy to achieve our investment objective, we will directly or indirectly originate Senior Secured Direct Private Credit investments. We also expect to invest in Senior Secured Broadly Syndicated Loans. Senior secured loans represent the most senior tranche in the capital structure of the relevant borrowers and often have lien security over the assets of the borrowers. In addition, to a lesser extent, our assets may include Opportunistic Credit, which may appear attractive on a relative value basis. Our Opportunistic Credit investments may also include CLO Equity issued by a CLO. We believe that the Partners Group investment platform offers strategic access to the wider private equity sponsor and borrower community and provides the Fund a significant advantage in sourcing, analyzing and executing attractive credit investments.

The Adviser expects to employ a range of techniques that seek to reduce the risk associated with our investment strategy. These techniques may include, without limitation: (i) selecting investments and commitments across a broad range of geographies, industries, sectors, and maturity dates; (ii) tracking operating performance of underlying companies and their compliance with financial covenants; and (iii) actively managing cash and liquid assets.

**Revenues**

We generate revenue in the form of interest and fee income on debt investments, capital gains, and dividend income from our equity investments in our Portfolio Companies. Our senior and subordinated debt investments are expected to bear interest at a fixed or floating rate. Interest on debt securities is generally payable quarterly or semiannually. In some cases, some of our investments may provide for deferred interest payments or PIK interest. The principal amount of the debt securities and any accrued but unpaid PIK interest generally will become due at the maturity date. In addition, we may generate revenue from various fees in the ordinary course of business such as in the form of structuring, consent, waiver, amendment, syndication and other miscellaneous fees. Original issue discounts and market discounts or premiums will be capitalized, and we will accrete or amortize such amounts as interest income. We will record prepayment premiums on loans and debt securities as interest income. Dividend income, if any, will be recognized on an accrual basis to the extent that we expect to collect such amounts.

**Expenses**

We do not currently have any employees and do not expect to have any employees. Our day-to-day investment operations are managed by the Adviser, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement. The services necessary for our business, including the origination and administration of our investment portfolio, will be provided by individuals who are employees of Partners Group, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement, and our Administrator, pursuant to the terms of the Master Administrative Services Agreement. All investment professionals of the Adviser, when and to the extent engaged in providing investment advisory and management services under the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement, and the compensation and routine compensation-related overhead expenses of such personnel allocable to such services, will be provided and paid for by the Adviser and not by the Fund. We will bear all other costs and expenses of the Fund's operations and transactions, including those listed in our Registration Statement on Form 10, as amended.

From time to time, the Adviser or its affiliates may pay third-party providers of goods or services. We will reimburse the Adviser or such affiliates thereof for any such amounts paid on our behalf. All of the foregoing expenses will ultimately be borne by our unitholders.

**Portfolio And Investment Activity**

As of March 31, 2026, we had investments in 56 Portfolio Companies across 19 industries, excluding CLO debt tranches. As of December 31, 2025, we had investments in 54 Portfolio Companies across 18 industries, excluding CLO debt tranches.

Based on fair value as of March 31, 2026, 92.8% of our portfolio is composed of senior secured direct private credit investments, followed by 5.3% of CLO debt tranches, 1.4% of opportunistic credit and 0.5% of broadly syndicated loans. 98.3% of our direct private credit investments was invested in debt bearing a floating interest rate, which primarily are subject to interest rate floors.

As of March 31, 2026, our weighted average total yield of debt securities at amortized cost was 9.19%. As of December 31, 2025, our weighted average total yield of debt securities at amortized cost was 9.12%

Weighted average yield includes the effect of accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums and are based on interest rates as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Computed based on the stated
 interest rate or yield as of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively, and weighted
 based on the total debt investments (at fair value or amortized cost, as applicable). Actual
 yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented
 above. Weighted average yield includes the effect of accretion of discounts and amortization
 of premiums.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Includes all private loan
 investments for which fair value is determined by the Adviser at least quarterly (with assistance,
 as applicable, from a third-party valuation firm, and subject to oversight by the Board).
 Figures are derived from the consolidated financial statements most recently obtained by
 the Adviser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) LTM EBITDA is a non-GAAP
 measure that refers to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization
 ("EBITDA") in accordance with the underlying governing documents, over the last
 twelve months as reported by respective borrowers or portfolio companies. Excludes investments
 with no reported EBITDA or where EBITDA, in the Adviser's judgment, was not a material
 component of the investment thesis, such as annual recurring revenue loans, or investments
 with negative EBITDA. Currency fluctuations may have an adverse effect on the value, price
 or income and costs of our Portfolio Companies and investments which may increase or decrease
 as a result of changes in exchange rates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) Net senior leverage is
 the ratio of total debt minus unrestricted cash divided by LTM EBITDA and taking into account
 leverage through the tranche in which the Fund holds an investment, excluding recurring revenue
 loans. Weighted average net senior leverage is weighted based on the funded commitment of
 total applicable private loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5) LTV is calculated as net
 debt through each respective investment tranche in which the Fund holds an investment divided
 by estimated enterprise value or value of the underlying collateral of the portfolio company.
 Weighted average LTV is weighted based on the funded commitment of the total applicable private
 loans.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(6) Calculated as a percentage
 of direct private credit investments.

*Interest Expense*

Total interest expense (including unused fees, amortization of deferred financing costs, debt issuance costs and original issue discounts) increased to $3.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily driven by an increase in the amount of outstanding borrowings relative to the prior year period.

As of March 31, 2026, there was $243 million of debt outstanding under the NatWest Credit Facility (as defined below under "Borrowings"). For the three months ended March 31, 2026, the Fund had total average debt of $230 million at a weighted average interest rate of 5.90%.

As of March 31, 2025, there was $189 million of debt outstanding under the NatWest Credit Facility. For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the Fund had total average debt of $179 million at a weighted average interest rate of 6.94%.

*Base Management Fees*

Management fees increased to $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from $0.4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily due to an increase in net assets. Management fees are payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.00% of the value of our Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) as of the beginning of the first calendar day of the applicable quarter. For purposes of the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement, "Adjusted Net Assets," as of any calendar quarter end, means the sum of (i) the Fund's total net assets less any liabilities other than the Base Management Fee and Incentive Fee expenses incurred by the Fund with respect to such calendar quarter end.

*Incentive Fee*

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, incentive fees totaled $0. Incentive fees decreased to $0 for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $352 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2025 primarily due to pre-incentive fee net income not exceeding the 6.00% hurdle rate.

*Other Expenses*

Organization costs and offering costs include expenses incurred in our initial formation and our continuous offering. Professional fees include legal, audit, tax, valuation, and other professional fees incurred related to the management of the Fund. Administrative service expenses represent fees paid to the Administrator in accordance with the Master Administrative Services Agreement. Other general and administrative expenses include insurance, filing, research, subscriptions and other costs.

Total other decreased increased to $279 thousand for the three months ended March 31, 2026 from $1.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025, primarily driven by a decrease of current tax expense and professional fees as the portfolio continues to grow.

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, our Administrator charged $5 thousand and $5 thousand , respectively, for certain costs and expenses allocable to the Fund under the terms of the Master Administrative Services Agreement.

*Income Taxes, Including Excise Taxes*

We have elected to be treated as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code

We intend to qualify each taxable year hereafter as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, and we intend to operate in a manner so as to qualify each taxable year for the tax treatment applicable to RICs. To qualify for tax treatment as a RIC, we must, among other things, distribute to our unitholders in each taxable year generally at least 90% of the sum of our investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), and net tax-exempt income (if any) for that taxable year. To maintain our tax treatment as a RIC, we, among other things, intend to make the requisite distributions to our unitholders, which generally relieve us from corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes.

Depending on the level of taxable income earned in a tax year, we may carry forward taxable income (including net capital gains, if any) in excess of current year distributions from the current tax year into the next tax year and pay a nondeductible 4% U.S. federal excise tax on such taxable income, as required. To the extent that we determine that our estimated current year annual taxable income will be in excess of estimated current year distributions from such income, we will accrue excise tax on estimated excess taxable income.

***Net Realized Gain (Loss)***

Net realized gains and losses were comprised of the following (dollar amounts in thousands):

| Foreign currency forward contracts |  |  |
| Foreign currency transactions | 33 | - |
| **Net realized gain (loss)** | $77 | $39 |

---

For the three months ended March 31, 2026, we generated net realized gains of $77 thousand, which was comprised of $33 thousand from foreign currency transactions and $44 thousand from the sale or early paydowns on non-controlled/non-affiliated investments.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, we generated net realized gains of $39 thousand, which was comprised of $0 from foreign currency transactions and $39 thousand from the sale or early paydowns on non-controlled/non-affiliated investments.

***Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)***

Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) was comprised of the following (dollar amounts in thousands):

---

|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **For the Three Months Ended** | **For the Three Months Ended** |

| Deferred tax expense |  |  |
| Translation of assets and liabilities in foreign currencies | 8 | 5 |
| **Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation)** | $(4767) | $(109) |

---

For the three months ended March 31, 2026 unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments decreased $4.8 million due to decreased market value of the positions.

For the three months ended March 31, 2025, the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments decreased $114 thousand due to increased market value of the positions.

**Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources**

We generate cash primarily from (i) the net proceeds of the Offering, (ii) cash flows from our operations, (iii) any financing arrangements we have entered into or may enter into in the future and (iv) any future offerings of our equity or debt securities. Our primary uses of cash are for (i) purchases of investments in accordance with the Fund's investment objective and strategy; (ii) general corporate purposes; and (iii) payment of operating expenses, including management and administrative services fees and other expenses such as due diligence expenses relating to potential new investments.

As of March 31, 2026, we had one asset-based leverage facility, the NatWest Facility. From time to time, we may enter into additional credit facilities, increase the size of our existing credit facility and/or issue debt securities, including unsecured notes and debt securitizations. In accordance with the 1940 Act, with certain limited exceptions, we are only allowed to incur borrowings, issue debt securities or issue preferred stock, if immediately after the borrowing or issuance, the ratio of total assets (less total liabilities other than indebtedness) to total indebtedness plus preferred stock, is at least 150%. As of March 31, 2026, we had an aggregate amount of $243 million of principal debt outstanding and our asset coverage ratio was 212.15%. We seek to carefully consider our unfunded commitments for the purpose of planning our ongoing financial leverage.

As of March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, we had $38.3 and $73.4 million in cash and cash equivalents, respectively. Cash and cash equivalents as of March 31, 2026, taken together with our $32 million of available capacity under our credit facility (subject to borrowing base availability) and the continuous offering of our Common Units is expected to be sufficient for our investing activities and to conduct our operations in the near term. This determination is based in part on our expectations for the timing of funding investment purchases and the timing and amount of future proceeds from sales of our Common Units and the use of existing and future financing arrangements.

Although we were able to close on the NatWest Facility and certain amendments thereto, any disruption in the financial markets or any other negative economic development could restrict our access to financing in the future. We may not be able to find new financing for future investments or liquidity needs and, even if we are able to obtain such financing, such financing may not be on as favorable terms as we could have obtained in the past. These factors may limit our ability to make new investments and adversely impact our results of operations.

***Unit Repurchase Program***

 ****

At the discretion of the Board, we intend to commence a unit repurchase program, no later than one year after the date that we made our BDC election, in which we may repurchase, in each quarter, up to 5% of the NAV of our Common Units outstanding (by number of units) as of the close of the previous calendar quarter. The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the unit repurchase program if it deems such action to be in the best interest of unitholders, such as when a repurchase offer would place an undue burden on our liquidity, adversely affect our operations or risk having an adverse impact on us as a whole that would outweigh the benefit of the repurchase offer. As a result, unit repurchases may not be available each quarter. We intend to conduct such repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the 1940 Act. All units purchased pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued units.

Under the unit repurchase program, to the extent we offer to repurchase units in any particular quarter, it is expected to repurchase units pursuant to tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per unit as of the last calendar day of the applicable quarter, except that units that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be repurchased at 98% of such NAV (an "Early Repurchase Fee"). The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date. The Early Repurchase Fee may be waived, at our discretion, in the case of repurchase requests arising from the death, divorce or qualified disability of the holder. The Early Repurchase Fee will be retained by us for the benefit of remaining unitholders.

***Borrowings***

<sup>(1)</sup> Carrying value of these debt obligations generally approximate fair value due to their variable interest rates.

<sup>(2)</sup> The fair value of these debt obligations would be categorized as Level 2 under ASC 820-10.

 *The NatWest Facility*

 

On February 14, 2024, each of Partners Group BDC Finance I, LLC and Partners Group Revolver Pooling BDC, LLC, as borrowers (the "SPVs"), and the Fund, as parent, entered into a secured financing agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, as facility agent, collateral agent, account bank, custodian and collateral administrator, NatWest Markets PLC, as arranger and lead bank, and the financial institutions listed therein (the "NatWest Facility"). The NatWest Facility was most recently amended on November 26, 2025.

Proceeds from the NatWest Facility will be used to finance the origination and acquisition of eligible assets by the SPVs and other permitted uses under the NatWest Facility. The maximum principal amount of the NatWest Facility is $275 million. The availability of this amount is subject to a borrowing base test (which is based on the value and type of the assets held by the SPVs from time to time, an advance rate and other factors, as more fully described in the NatWest Facility documents) and satisfaction of certain conditions, including portfolio profile tests.

The SPVs may borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or certain other permitted currencies under the NatWest Facility. The NatWest Facility provides for the ability to draw and redraw on a revolving basis for a period of up to three years after the closing date (the "Investment Period") unless the Investment Period is terminated sooner as provided in the NatWest Facility. The facility will be a term facility during the period beginning from the end of the Investment Period to the Facility Maturity Date (as defined below). On and after the date which is seven years from the closing date, any lender can request prepayment of any of the advances. Unless otherwise terminated or prepaid, the NatWest Facility will mature 11 years after the closing date (the "Facility Maturity Date"). Prior to the Facility Maturity Date, proceeds received by SPVs from principal, interest or fees on assets must be used to pay fees, expenses and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund, subject to certain conditions. On the Facility Maturity Date, the SPVs must pay in full all outstanding fees and expenses and all principal and interest on outstanding borrowings, and the excess may be returned to the Fund. The credit facility may be permanently reduced, in whole or in part, at the option of the SPVs, subject to a prepayment fee.

Amounts drawn on term rate advances bear interest at (i) an applicable margin (1) for EUR borrowings at 2.10% per annum, (2) for GBP borrowings at 2.10% per annum, (3) for USD borrowings at 2.10% per annum, (4) for CAD borrowings at 2.10 % per annum, and (5) AUD borrowings at 2.10% per annum, plus (ii) the term reference rate (as determined under the terms of the NatWest Facility). Term rate advances may be switched to compounded rate advances under the terms of the NatWest Facility; amounts drawn on compounded rate advances will be determined under the terms of the NatWest Facility and any supplements entered into in connection with compounded rate advances. The NatWest Facility contains customary covenants, including certain maintenance covenants and customary events of default. The NatWest Facility is secured by a perfected security interest in the assets of each of the SPVs and on any payments received by each of the SPVs in respect of such assets. Assets pledged under the NatWest Facility will not be available to pay the debts of the Fund.

**Related-Party Transactions**

We entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement and the Expense Limitation Agreement.

In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we, our Adviser and certain of our Adviser's affiliates have received exemptive relief from the SEC which permits the Fund to co-invest with other funds managed by our Adviser or its affiliates in a manner consistent with our investment objective, positions, policies, strategies and restrictions as well as regulatory requirements and other pertinent factors.

**Critical Accounting Policies**

This discussion of our expected operating plans is based upon our expected consolidated financial statements, which will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements will require our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. In addition to the discussion below, we will describe our critical accounting policies in the notes to our future consolidated financial statements.

**Investments and Fair Value Measurements**

The Fund is required to report its investments, including those for which current market values are not readily available, at fair value.

The Fund's investments are measured at fair value in accordance with ASC 820, *Fair Value Measurement* ("ASC 820"), which defines fair value as the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the applicable measurement date, and Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5, the Board designated the Adviser as "valuation designee" to perform fair value determinations and approved amended valuation procedures (the "Valuation Procedures").

Fair value is based on observable market prices or parameters or derived from such prices or parameters when such quotations are readily available. In accordance with Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, a market quotation is "readily available" only when it is a quoted price (unadjusted) in active markets for identical instruments that a fund can access at the measurement date, provided that such a quotation is not considered to be readily available if it is not reliable.

The Adviser, as "valuation designee" under Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, determines the fair value of the Fund's investments in conformity with GAAP, Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, and the Fund's Valuation Procedures. As permitted by the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser values the Fund's non-traded investments in consultation with persons who are employees of the Adviser's parent company or one of its subsidiaries. The Valuation Procedures require evaluation of all relevant factors reasonably available to the Adviser and its affiliates at the time the Fund's non-traded investments are valued.

In assessing the fair value of the Fund's non-traded investments in accordance with the Valuation Procedures, the Adviser uses a variety of methods such as discounted cash flow and market data from third party pricing services. The Adviser makes valuation assumptions based on market conditions existing at the end of each reporting period. Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for certain similar instruments are used for investments where appropriate. Other techniques, such as option pricing models and estimated discounted value of future cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.

The Valuation Procedures are implemented by the Adviser and State Street Bank and Trust Company, as the Fund's Administrator. Both the Adviser and the Administrator are subject to the oversight of, and report to, the Board. The Adviser and the Administrator monitor and review the methodologies of the various third-party pricing services that are employed by the Fund.

The Adviser and certain of its affiliates act as investment advisers to clients other than the Fund. However, the valuation attributed to a non-traded investment held by the Fund and to the same non-traded investment held by another client, one of the Adviser's affiliates, or by a client of one of its affiliates might differ due to differences in accounting, regulatory or other factors applicable to the Fund, to such other client or the Adviser's affiliate.

ASC 820 prioritizes the use of observable market prices derived from such prices over entity-specific inputs. Due to the inherent uncertainties of valuation, certain estimated fair values may differ significantly from the values that would have been realized had a ready market for these investments existed, and these differences could be material.

The Fund applies ASC 820, which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. The Fund discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy which prioritizes and ranks the level of market observability used in the determination of fair value. In accordance with ASC 820, these levels are summarized below:

● Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.

● Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices in markets that are not active or for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

● Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement.

A financial instrument's level within the hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period in which the transfers occur. The Fund evaluates the source of inputs used in the determination of fair value, including any markets in which the investments, or similar investments, are trading. When the fair value of an investment is determined using inputs from a pricing service (or principal market makers), the Fund considers various criteria in determining whether the investment should be classified as a Level 2 or Level 3 investment. The criteria considered include the pricing methodologies of the pricing services (or principal market makers) to determine if the inputs to the valuation are observable or unobservable, as well as the number of prices obtained and an assessment of the quality of the prices obtained. The level of an investment within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what constitutes "observable" requires significant judgment.

The fair value assigned to these investments is based upon available information and may fluctuate from period to period. In addition, it does not necessarily represent the amount that might ultimately be realized upon sale. Due to inherent uncertainty of valuation, the estimated fair value of an investment may differ from the value that would have been used had a ready market for the investment existed, and the difference could be material.

The Valuation Designee generally uses the income approach to determine fair value for loans where market quotations are not readily available, as long as it is appropriate. If there is deterioration in credit quality or a debt investment is in workout status, the Valuation Designee may consider other factors in determining the fair value, including the value attributable to the debt investment from the enterprise value of the portfolio company or the proceeds that would be received in a liquidation analysis. This liquidation analysis may also include probability weighting of alternative outcomes. The Valuation Designee generally considers our debt to be performing if the borrower is not in default, the borrower is remitting payments in a timely manner, the loan is in covenant compliance and the loan is otherwise not deemed to be impaired. In determining the fair value of the performing debt, the Valuation Designee considers fluctuations in current interest rates, the trends in yields of debt instruments with similar credit ratings, financial condition of the borrower, economic conditions and other relevant factors, both qualitative and quantitative. In the event that a debt instrument is not performing, as defined above, the Valuation Designee will evaluate the value of the collateral utilizing the same framework described above for a performing loan to determine the value of the debt instrument.

Under the income approach, discounted cash flow models are utilized to determine the present value of the future cash flow streams of our debt investments, based on future interest and principal payments as set forth in the associated loan agreements. In determining fair value under the income approach, the Valuation Designee also considers the following factors: applicable market yields and leverage levels, recent transactions, credit quality, prepayment penalties, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the portfolio company's ability to make payments, and changes in the interest rate environment and the credit markets that generally may affect the price at which similar investments may be made.

Under the market approach, the enterprise value methodology is typically utilized to determine the fair value of an investment. There is no one methodology to estimate enterprise value and, in fact, for any one portfolio company, enterprise value is generally best expressed as a range of values, from which the Valuation Designee derives a single estimate of enterprise value. In estimating the enterprise value of a portfolio company, the Valuation Designee analyzes various factors consistent with industry practice, including but not limited to original transaction multiples, the portfolio company's historical and projected financial results, applicable market trading and transaction comparables, applicable market yields and leverage levels, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the markets in which the portfolio company does business, and comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public. Typically, the enterprise values of private companies are based on multiples of EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues, or in limited cases, book value.

**Revenue Recognition**

***Interest Income***

 ****

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortizations of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premiums, unamortized fees and unamortized discounts are recorded as interest income.

Certain investments may have contractual PIK interest. PIK represents accrued interest that is added to the principal amount of the investment on the interest payment date rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon the investment being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest income.

***Dividend Income***

 ****

Dividend income on preferred equity securities is recorded on the accrual basis to the extent that such amounts are payable by the Portfolio Company and are expected to be collected. Dividend income on common equity securities is recorded on the record date for private Portfolio Companies or on the ex-dividend date for publicly-traded Portfolio Companies.

***Fee Income***

 ****

In the general course of its business, the Fund receives certain fees from Portfolio Companies, which are non-recurring in nature. Such fees include loan prepayment penalties, structuring fees and loan waiver amendment fees, and commitment fees, and are recorded as other income in investment income when earned.

***Non-Accrual Income***

 ****

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Additionally, any original issue discount and market discount are no longer accreted to interest income as of the date the loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management's judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest is paid current and, in management's judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may make exceptions to this treatment and determine to not place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection.

***Distributions***

 ****

To the extent that the Fund has taxable income available, the Fund intends to make quarterly distributions to its unitholders. Distributions to unitholders are recorded on the record date. All distributions will be paid at the discretion of our Board and will depend on our earnings, financial condition, maintenance of our tax treatment as a RIC, compliance with applicable BDC regulations and such other factors as our Board may deem relevant from time to time.

***Income Taxes***

 ****

The Fund has elected to be treated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The Fund has elected to be treated, and intends qualify each taxable year hereafter, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code. So long as the Fund maintains its status as a RIC, it generally will not pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that it distributes at least annually to its unitholders as dividends. Rather, any tax liability related to income earned and distributed by the Fund would represent obligations of the Fund's investors and would not be reflected in the consolidated financial statements of the Fund.

The Fund evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the "more-likely-than-not" threshold are reserved and recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes are included in income tax expense. Conclusions regarding tax positions are subject to review and may be adjusted at a later date based on factors including, but not limited to, on-going analyses of tax laws, regulations and interpretations thereof.

To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC, the Fund must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. In addition, to qualify for RIC tax treatment, the Fund must distribute to its unitholders, for each taxable year, at least 90% of the sum of (i) its "investment company taxable income" for that year (without regard to the deduction for dividends paid), which is generally its ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of its realized net short-term capital gains over its realized net long-term capital losses and (ii) its net tax-exempt income.

In addition, pursuant to the excise tax distribution requirements, the Fund is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Fund distributes in a timely manner in each taxable year an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending December 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in prior years. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Fund that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed.

**Contractual Obligations**

We have entered into the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement with Partners Group (USA), Inc. to provide us with investment advisory services and the Master Administrative Services Agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company to provide us with administrative services. Payments for investment advisory services under the Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement and fees under the Master Administrative Services Agreement are described in "*Item 1. Business —Investment Advisory Agreement and Master Administrative Services Agreement.*"

We have established and may in the future establish one or more credit facilities or enter into other financing arrangements from time to time to facilitate investments and the timely payment of our expenses. It is anticipated that any such credit facilities will bear interest at floating rates at to-be-determined spreads over SOFR (or other applicable reference rate). We cannot assure unitholders that we will be able to enter into a credit facility on favorable terms or at all. In connection with a credit facility or other borrowings, lenders may require us to pledge assets, commitments and/or drawdowns (and the ability to enforce the payment thereof) and may ask to comply with positive or negative covenants that could have an effect on our operations.

**Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements**

Other than contractual commitments and other legal contingencies incurred in the normal course of our business, we do not expect to have any off-balance sheet financings or liabilities. From time to time, we may become a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of its business. As of March 31, 2026, management is not aware of any material pending or threatened litigation.

**Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

We are subject to financial market risks, including valuation risk and interest rate risk as described below.

***Valuation Risk***

We have invested, and plan to continue to invest, primarily in illiquid debt and equity securities of private companies. Most of our investments will not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Valuation Designee, based on, among other things, the input of independent third-party valuation firms retained by the Fund, and in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. If we were required to liquidate a portfolio investment in a forced or liquidation sale, we may realize amounts that are different from the amounts presented and such differences could be material.

***Interest Rate Risk***

 ****

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. We intend to fund portions of our investments with borrowings, and at such time, our net investment income will be affected by the difference between the rate at which we invest and the rate at which we borrow. Accordingly, we cannot assure unitholders that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our net investment income.

Based on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of March 31, 2026, the following table shows the annualized impact on net income of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (considering base rate floors and ceilings for floating rate instruments) and assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure (dollar amounts in thousands):

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Interest Income** | **Interest Expense** | **Net Income** |
| Up 300 basis points | $13499 | $(7290) | $6209 |
| Up 200 basis points | $8970 | $(4860) | $4110 |
| Up 100 basis points | $4485 | $(2430) | $2055 |
| Down 100 basis points | $(4368) | $2430 | $(1938) |
| Down 200 basis points | $(8681) | $4860 | $(3821) |
| Down 300 basis points | $(2495) | $7290 | $4795 |

---

We may in the future hedge against interest rate fluctuations by using hedging instruments such as additional interest rate swaps, futures, options and forward contracts. While hedging activities may mitigate our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates, certain hedging transactions, such as interest rate swap agreements, may limit our ability to participate in the benefits of changes in interest rates with respect to our portfolio investments.

**Item 4. Controls and Procedures**

***Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures***

 ****

In accordance with Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), we, under the supervision and with the participation of our President and Chief Financial Officer, carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and Rule 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report and determined that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report.

This Report does not include a report of management's assessment regarding internal control over financial reporting or an attestation report of the company's registered public accounting firm due to a transition period established by rules of the SEC.

***Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting***

 

Management has not identified any changes in our internal control over financial reporting during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II: OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings**

From time to time, in the normal course of business, we and our Adviser may be party to certain lawsuits. Furthermore, third parties may try to seek to impose liability on us in connection with the activities of our Portfolio Companies. We, the Adviser, and our wholly owned subsidiaries are not currently subject to any material litigation.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors**

There have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously reported in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

**Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds**

**Item 3. Defaults Upon Senior Securities**

None.

**Item 4. Mine Safety Disclosures**

Not applicable.

**Item 5. Other Information**
