------

increase in investment income compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the increase in the cost yield of our debt portfolio.

**Net Expenses**

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, expenses totaled $17.6 million and were comprised of; $9.9 million of debt-related interest and expenses, $2.9 million of base management fee, $3.4 million of performance-based incentive fee, $0.8 million of general and administrative expenses and $0.5 million of taxes.

The increase in expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to increased financing costs.

**Net Investment Income**

For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net investment income totaled $13.7 million or $0.30 per share, and $12.7 million or $0.33 per share, respectively. The increase in net investment income compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the increase in the cost yield of our debt portfolio.

**Net Realized Gains or Losses**

For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net realized gains (losses) totaled less than $0.1 million and $3.1 million, respectively. The change in realized gains was primarily due to changes in the market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized. <br>

<br>**Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation on Investments, the Credit Facility and the 2023 Notes**

For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we reported net change in unrealized depreciation on investments of $16.8 million and $3.5 million, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, our net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments totaled $(29.9) million and $(13.1) million, respectively. The net change in unrealized depreciation on our investments compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital market conditions of our investments and the values at which they were realized.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, our credit facility with Truist (the "Credit Facility") and the 2023 Notes had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $2.1 million. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, the Credit Facility and the 2023 Notes had a net change in unrealized depreciation of $3.6 million. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, the net unrealized depreciation on the Credit Facility and the 2023 Notes totaled $4.4 million and $2.3 million, respectively. The net change in net unrealized depreciation compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily due to changes in the capital markets.

**Net Increase (Decrease) in Net Assets Resulting from Operations**

For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, net (decrease) increase in net assets resulting from operations totaled $(1.6) million or $(0.04) per share and $14.4 million or $0.37 per share, respectively.

**LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES**

Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments, and income earned, proceeds of securtieis offerings and debt financings. Our primary use of funds from operations includes investments in portfolio companies and payments of fees and other operating expenses we incur. We have used, and expect to continue to use, our debt capital, proceeds from the rotation of our portfolio and proceeds from public and private offerings of securities to finance our investment objectives and operations.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the annualized weighted average cost of debt, inclusive of the fee on the undrawn commitment on the Credit Facility, amendment costs and debt issuance costs, was 5.7% and 3.6%, respectively. As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, we had $166.8 million and $197.2 million of unused borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility, as applicable, respectively, subject to leverage and borrowing base restrictions.

As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, PennantPark Floating Rate Funding I, LLC, our wholly-owned subsidiary, borrowed $199.2 million and $168.8 million under the Credit Facility, respectively and the weighted average interest rate, exclusive of the fee on undrawn commitments, was of 6.5% and 4.5%, respectively.

------

As of December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022, we had cash equivalents of $52.9 million and $47.9 million, respectively, available for investing and general corporate purposes. We believe our liquidity and capital resources are sufficient to take advantage of market opportunities.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, our operating activities provided cash of $7.8 million and our financing activities used cash of $2.7 million. Our operating activities provided cash primarily realized from our investment activities and our financing activities used cash primarily due to borrowings under our Credit Facility and principal repayment of our 2023 Notes.

For the three months ended December 31, 2021, our operating activities used cash of $82.4 million and our financing activities provided cash of $93.2 million. Our operating activities used cash primarily for our investment activities and our financing activities provided cash primarily due to the issuance of $85 million of our 2026 Add-on Notes and borrowings under our Credit Facility.

<br>**RECENT DEVELOPMENTS**

In connection with our January 23, 2023 public offering, we issued approximately 4.3 million shares of common stock resulting in net proceeds exclusive of offering expenses to the Company of approximately $47.6 million, or $11.20 per share.

The Adviser agreed to pay the underwriters a supplemental payment of $0.10 per share, which reflects the difference between the public offering price of $11.10 and the net proceeds of $11.20 per share received by the Company in this offering. In addition, the Adviser agreed to bear the sales load payable to the underwriters. The Company is not obligated to repay either the supplemental payment or the sales load paid by the Adviser.

**DISTRIBUTIONS**

During the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we declared distributions of $0.285 per share for total distributions of $12.9 million and $0.285 per share for total distributions of $11.1 million, respectively. We monitor available net investment income to determine if a return of capital for tax purposes may occur for the fiscal year. To the extent our taxable earnings fall below the total amount of our distributions for any given fiscal year, stockholders will be notified of the portion of those distributions deemed to be a tax return of capital.

The Company makes available on its website its Quarterly Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC, and stockholders may find such report on its website at <u>www.pennantpark.com</u>.
