FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Quarterly Report”) (including those relating to current and future market conditions and trends in respect thereof) that are not historical facts are based on current expectations, estimates, projections, opinions and/or beliefs of the Company, BCPC Advisors, LP (the “Advisor”) and/or Bain Capital Credit, LP and its affiliated advisers (collectively, “Bain Capital Credit”). Such statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors and undue reliance should not be placed thereon. Certain information contained in this Quarterly Report constitutes “forward-looking statements,” which can be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology such as “may,” “will,” “should,” “seek,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “continue,” “target,” or “believe” or the negatives thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Due to various risks and uncertainties, actual events or results or the actual performance of the Company may differ materially from those reflected or contemplated in such forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and are difficult to predict, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements including, without limitation, the risks, uncertainties and other factors we identify in the section entitled Part 1, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K (the “Annual Report”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Except as otherwise specified in this Quarterly Report, the terms “we”, “us”, “our”, and the “Company” refer to Bain Capital Private Credit.
Although we believe that the assumptions on which these forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, some of those assumptions may be based on the work of third parties and any of those assumptions could prove to be inaccurate; as a result, the forward-looking statements based on those assumptions also could prove to be inaccurate. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a projection or forward-looking statement in this Quarterly Report should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved. These risks and uncertainties include those described or identified in the section entitled Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Investors should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which apply only as of the date of this Quarterly Report. We do not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements or any other information contained herein, except as required by applicable law. The safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), which preclude civil liability for certain forward-looking statements, do not apply to the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report because we are an investment company.

BAIN CAPITAL PRIVATE CREDIT
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(in thousands, except share and per share data)
Note 1. Organization
Bain Capital Private Credit (“BCPC” or the “Company”), is a Delaware statutory trust which was formed on December 21, 2021. BCPC Advisors, LP (the “Advisor”), a subsidiary of Bain Capital Credit, is the investment adviser of the Company. The Advisor is registered as an investment adviser with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (the “Advisers Act”). Prior to September 28, 2023, BCSF Advisors, LP served as the investment advisor for the Company pursuant to a previous investment advisory agreement. The Company is a non-exchange traded, perpetual life management investment company that has elected to be treated and is regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as amended (the “1940 Act”). As of June 30, 2024 the Company has the authority to issue unlimited shares of all classes of Common Shares, par value $
The Company’s investment objective is to generate attractive risk adjusted returns, predominantly in the form of current income, with select investments exhibiting the ability to capture long-term capital appreciation. The Company seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in middle-market direct lending opportunities across North America, Europe, Australia and in other geographic markets. Middle market companies generally means companies with between $
The Company may from time to time invest in smaller or larger companies if the opportunity presents attractive investment and risk adjusted returns. The Company may invest in common and preferred equity and in secondary purchases of assets or portfolios on an opportunistic basis, but such investments are not the principal focus of the investment strategy. The Company may also invest, from time to time, in distressed debt, debtor-in-possession loans, structured products, structurally subordinate loans, investments with deferred interest features, zero-coupon securities and defaulted securities.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10‑Q and Regulation S-X. These consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments that in the opinion of the Company are necessary for the fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented herein and are not necessarily indicative of the full fiscal year. The Company has determined it meets the definition of an investment company and follows the accounting and reporting guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 — Financial Services — Investment Companies ("ASC 946"). The functional currency of the Company is U.S. dollars and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency. Certain prior period information has been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation and this had no effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position or the consolidated results of operations as previously reported.
The information included in this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Basis of Consolidation
The Company will generally consolidate any wholly, or substantially, owned subsidiary when the design and purpose of the subsidiary is to act as an extension of the Company’s investment operations and to facilitate the execution of the Company’s investment strategy. Accordingly, the Company consolidated the results of its subsidiary BCPC I, LLC in its consolidated financial statements. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Since the Company is an investment company, portfolio investments held by the Company are not consolidated into the consolidated financial statements. The portfolio investments held by the Company (including its investments held by consolidated subsidiaries) are included on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities as investments at fair value.
19
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
The Advisor shall value the investments owned by the Company, subject at all times to the oversight of the Company's Board of Trustees (the "Board"). The Advisor shall follow its own written valuation policies and procedures as approved by the Board when determining valuations. A short summary of the Advisor’s valuation policies is below.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board has designated the Advisor as valuation designee to perform fair value determinations for the Company for investments that do not have readily available market quotations. Market quotations are obtained from an independent pricing service, where available. If a price cannot be obtained from an independent pricing service or if the independent pricing service is not deemed to be current with the market, certain investments held by the Company will be valued on the basis of prices provided by principal market makers. Generally, investments marked in this manner will be marked at the mean of the bid and ask of the independent broker quotes obtained. To validate market quotations, the Company utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available will be valued at a price that reflects such security’s fair value.
With respect to unquoted portfolio investments, the Company will value each investment considering, among other measures, discounted cash flow models, comparable company multiple models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, and other factors. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Company will use the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate and/or assist us in our valuation. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, in particular, illiquid/hard to value assets, the Advisor will typically undertake a multi-step valuation process, which includes among other things, the below:
In following this approach, the types of factors that are taken into account in the fair value pricing of investments include, as relevant, but are not limited to: comparison to publicly traded securities, including factors such as yield, maturity and measures of credit quality; the enterprise value of a portfolio company; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows; and the markets in which the portfolio company does business. In cases where an independent valuation firm provides fair valuations for investments, the independent valuation firm provides a fair valuation report, a description of the methodology used to determine the fair value and their analysis and calculations to support their conclusion.
20
The Company applies ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”), which establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with US GAAP and required disclosures of fair value measurements. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company determines the fair value of investments consistent with its valuation policy. The Company 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:
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. Valuations of Level 2 investments are generally based on quotations received from pricing services, dealers or brokers. Consideration is given to the source and nature of the quotations and the relationship of recent market activity to the quotations provided.
Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the reporting period in which the transfers occur. The Company 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 Company 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. 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 investments may differ from the value that would have been used had a ready market for the security existed, and the difference could be material.
Securities Transactions, Revenue Recognition and Expenses
The Company records its investment transactions on a trade date basis. The Company measures realized gains or losses by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment, using the specified identification method. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, is recorded on an accrual basis. Discount and premium to par value on investments acquired are accreted and amortized, respectively, into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Commitment fees are recorded on an accrual basis and recognized as interest income. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized and amortized against or accreted into interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method, as applicable. For the Company’s investments in revolving bank loans, the cost basis of the investment purchased is adjusted for the cash received for the discount on the total balance committed. The fair value is also adjusted for price appreciation or depreciation on the unfunded portion. As a result, the purchase of commitments not completely funded may result in a negative value until it is offset by the future amounts called and funded. Upon prepayment of a loan or debt security, any prepayment premium, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discount are recorded as interest income.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an 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 investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Distributions received from an equity interest, limited liability company or a limited partnership investment are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital.
Certain investments may have contractual payment-in-kind (“PIK”) interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. PIK is recorded as interest or dividend income, as applicable. If at any point the Company believes PIK is not expected to be realized, the investment generating PIK will be placed on non-accrual status.
21
Accrued PIK interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, respectively, when an investment is placed on non-accrual status. Certain structuring fees and amendment fees are recorded as other income when earned. Administrative agent fees received by the Company are recorded as other income when the services are rendered.
Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.
Non-Accrual Loans
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. 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 Company may make exceptions to this treatment if a loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were
Distributions
Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the record date. The Board delegated authority to the Company's officers to declare from time to time distributions payable in an aggregate amount up to all of the Company’s (i) taxable earnings; (ii) capital gains; (iii) net proceeds attributable to the repayment or disposition of investments (together with any interest, dividends and other net cash flow in respect of such investments); and (iv) any other amounts legally available for distribution to the extent the officers of the Company deem appropriate (including, if applicable, amounts representing a return of capital); provided each such Distribution shall not exceed an annualized distribution yield of 10%, as may be appropriate and in the interest of the Company's shareholders, subject to the Board’s ratification at the immediately succeeding quarterly meeting of the Board. Distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with U.S. federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those amounts determined in accordance with US GAAP. The Company may pay distributions to its shareholders in a year in excess of its investment company taxable income and net capital gain for that year and, accordingly, a portion of such distributions may constitute a return of capital for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This excess generally would be a tax-free return of capital in the period and generally would reduce the shareholder’s tax basis in its shares. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent; they are charged or credited to paid-in capital in excess of par, accumulated undistributed net investment income or accumulated net realized gain (loss), as appropriate, in the period that the differences arise. Temporary and permanent differences are primarily attributable to differences in the tax treatment of certain loans and the tax characterization of income and non-deductible expenses.
The Company intends to timely distribute to its shareholders substantially all of its annual taxable income for each year, except that the Company may retain certain net capital gains for reinvestment and, depending upon the level of the Company’s taxable income earned in a year, the Company may choose to carry forward taxable income for distribution in the following year and incur applicable U.S. federal excise tax. The specific tax characteristics of the Company’s distributions will be reported to shareholders after the end of the calendar year. All distributions will be subject to available funds, and no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to declare such distributions in future periods.
The specific tax characteristics of the Company’s distributions will be reported to shareholders after the end of the calendar year. All distributions will be subject to available funds, and no assurance can be given that the Company will be able to declare such distributions in future periods.
The Company distributes net capital gains (i.e., net long-term capital gains in excess of net short-term capital losses), if any, at least annually out of the assets legally available for such distributions. However, the Company may decide in the future to retain such capital gains for investment, incur a corporate-level tax on such capital gains, and elect to treat such capital gains as deemed distributions to shareholders.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
The Company has adopted a distribution reinvestment plan that provides for the reinvestment of cash distributions and other distributions. Shareholders who do not “opt out” of the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan will have their cash distributions and other distributions automatically reinvested in additional Common Shares, rather than receiving cash distributions and other distributions.
22
Cash, Restricted Cash, and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents consist of deposits held at custodian banks, 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 or amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The Company may deposit its cash and cash equivalents in financial institutions and, at certain times, such balances may exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance limits. Cash equivalents are presented separately on the consolidated schedules of investments. Restricted cash is collected and held by the trustee who has been appointed as custodian of the assets securing certain of the Company’s financing transactions.
Organization Expenses
Organization expenses include, among other things, the cost of incorporating the Company and the cost of legal services and other fees pertaining to the Company’s organization. These costs are expensed as incurred.
Offering Costs
Offering costs in connection with the continuous offering of Common Shares of the Company are recognized as a deferred charge and are amortized on a straight-line basis over 12 months beginning on the date of commencement of operations and are included in amortization of deferred offering costs in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, there were deferred offering costs of $
Prepaid Insurance
The Company has obtained trustees and officers liability insurance. These costs are recognized as a deferred charge and will be amortized using the straight-line method over the term of the insurance policies, beginning on the date the Company enters into each insurance policy agreement. Deferred costs related to the insurance policies are presented separately on the Company’s consolidated statement of assets and liabilities.
Professional Fees and Operating Expenses
The Company is responsible for investment expenses, legal expenses, auditing fees, and other expenses related to the Company’s operations. Such fees and expenses, including expenses incurred by the Advisor may be reimbursed by the Company.
Foreign Currency Translation
The accounting records of the Company are maintained in U.S. dollars. The fair values of foreign securities, foreign cash and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency are translated to U.S. dollars based on the current exchange rates at the end of each business day. Income and expenses denominated in foreign currencies are translated at current exchange rates when accrued or incurred. Unrealized gains and losses on foreign currency holdings and non-investment assets and liabilities attributable to the changes in foreign currency exchange rates are included in the net change in unrealized appreciation on foreign currency translation on the consolidated statements of operations. Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency holdings and non-investment assets and liabilities attributable to changes in foreign currency exchange rates are included in net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions on the consolidated statements of operations. The portion of both realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed, but is included in net realized gain (loss) on investments and net change in unrealized appreciation on investments, respectively, on the consolidated statements of operations.
23
Forward Currency Exchange Contracts
The Company may enter into forward currency exchange contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies. A forward currency exchange contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The Company does not utilize hedge accounting and as such the Company recognizes the value of its derivatives at fair value on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities with changes in the net unrealized appreciation on forward currency exchange contracts recorded on the consolidated statements of operations. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued using the prevailing forward currency exchange rate of the underlying currencies. Unrealized appreciation on forward currency exchange contracts are recorded on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities by counterparty on a net basis, not taking into account collateral posted which is recorded separately, if applicable. Cash collateral maintained in accounts held by counterparties is included in collateral on forward currency exchange contracts on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. Notional amounts and the gross fair value of forward currency exchange contracts assets and liabilities are presented separately on the consolidated schedules of investments.
Changes in net unrealized appreciation are recorded on the consolidated statements of operations in net change in unrealized appreciation on forward currency exchange contracts. Net realized gains and losses are recorded on the consolidated statements of operations in net realized gain (loss) on forward currency exchange contracts. Realized gains and losses on forward currency exchange contracts are determined using the difference between the fair market value of the forward currency exchange contract at the time it was opened and the fair market value at the time it was closed or covered. Additionally, losses, up to the fair value, may arise if the counterparties do not perform under the contract terms.
Deferred Financing Costs and Debt Issuance Costs
The Company records costs related to issuance of revolving debt obligations as deferred financing costs. These costs are deferred and amortized using the straight-line method over the stated maturity life of the obligation. The Company records costs related to the issuance of term debt obligations as debt issuance costs. These costs are deferred and amortized using the effective interest method. These costs are presented as a reduction to the outstanding principal amount of the term debt obligations on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. In the event that we modify or extinguish our debt before maturity, the Company follows the guidance in ASC Topic 470-50, Modification and Extinguishments. For modifications to or exchanges of our revolving debt obligations, any unamortized deferred financing costs related to lenders who are not part of the new lending group are expensed. For extinguishments of our term debt obligations, any unamortized debt issuance costs are deducted from the carrying amount of the debt in determining the gain or loss from the extinguishment.
Valuation of Other Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
ASC 825, Financial Instruments, permits an entity to choose, at specified election dates, to measure certain assets and liabilities at fair value (the “Fair Value Option”). We have not elected the Fair Value Option to report selected financial assets and financial liabilities. Debt issued by the Company is reported at amortized cost (see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements). The carrying value of all other financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to their short maturities or their close proximity of the originations to the measurement date.
Income Taxes
The Company has elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. The Company intends to elect to be treated as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As a RIC, the Company generally will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any ordinary income or capital gains that is distributed timely to our shareholders as dividends. Therefore,
For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, tax expense was $

Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In June 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-03, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820), which affects all entities that have investments in equity securities measured at fair value that are subject to a contractual sale restriction. The amendments in ASU 2022-03 clarify that a contractual restriction on the sale of an equity security is not considered part of the unit of account of the equity security and, therefore, is not considered in measuring the fair value. The amendments also require additional disclosures for equity securities subject to contractual sale restrictions that are measured at fair value in accordance with Topic 820. The effective date for the amendments in ASU 2022-03 are for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of the adoption of ASU 2022-03 on its consolidated financial statements.

Significant Unobservable Inputs
ASC 820 requires disclosure of quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used in the valuation of assets and liabilities classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. Disclosure of this information is not required in circumstances where a valuation (unadjusted) is obtained from a third-party pricing service and the information regarding the unobservable inputs is not reasonably available to the Company and as such, the disclosures provided below exclude those investments valued in that manner.
The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in Level 3 fair value measurements of assets as of June 30, 2024 were as follows:

The Company used the income approach and market approach to determine the fair value of certain Level 3 assets as of June 30, 2024. The significant unobservable inputs used in the income approach is the comparative yield. The comparative yield is used to discount the estimated future cash flows expected to be received from the underlying investment. An increase/decrease in the comparative yield would result in a decrease/increase, respectively, in the fair value. The significant unobservable inputs used in the market approach is the comparable company multiple. The multiple is used to estimate the enterprise value of the underlying investment. An increase/decrease in the multiple would result in an increase/decrease, respectively, in the fair value.

Note 5. Agreements and Related Party Transactions
Investment Advisory Agreement
The Company entered into an investment advisory agreement as of September 28, 2023 (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) with the Advisor, pursuant to which the Advisor manages the Company’s investment program and related activities. The Company entered into an administration agreement with the Advisor, pursuant to which administrative services necessary for the Company to operate will be provided. Prior to September 28, 2023, BCSF Advisors, LP, a subsidiary of Bain Capital Credit, served as the Company’s investment adviser and provided administrative services to the Company.
Base Management Fee
The base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of
29
number of days in such month). For purposes of the Investment Advisory Agreement, cash equivalents means U.S. government securities and commercial paper instruments maturing within one year of purchase. The fair value of derivative financial instruments held in the Company’s portfolio will be included in the calculation of gross assets of the Company.
For the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, management fee was $
As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, $
Incentive Fee
Pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies but excluding fees for providing managerial assistance) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus operating expenses for the quarter (including the Base Management Fee, any expenses payable under the Administration Agreement, and any interest expense and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding debt or preferred stock, but excluding any distribution or shareholder servicing fees and incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature such as market discount, original issue discount (“OID”), debt instruments with PIK interest, preferred stock with PIK dividends and zero-coupon securities, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash.
Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized or unrealized capital gains or losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation. Because of the structure of the incentive fee, it is possible that the Company may pay an incentive fee in a quarter where the Company incurs a loss. For example, if the Company receives pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the Hurdle rate for a quarter, the Company will pay the applicable incentive fee even if the Company has incurred a loss in that quarter due to realized and unrealized capital losses.
The incentive fee is comprised of the following two parts:
An incentive fee on pre-incentive fee net investment income, which we refer to as the incentive fee on income or the “Income Fee”. The incentive fee on income is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the aggregate pre-incentive fee net investment income, attributable to each class of the Company’s Common Shares, in respect of the current calendar quarter and the

Incentive Fee Cap
The Incentive Fee Cap in respect of any calendar quarter is an amount equal to

US GAAP requires that the incentive fee accrual consider the cumulative aggregate unrealized capital appreciation of investments or other financial instruments in the calculation, as an incentive fee would be payable if such unrealized capital appreciation were realized, even though such unrealized capital appreciation is not permitted to be considered in calculating the fee actually payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement (“GAAP Incentive Fee”). There can be no assurance that such unrealized appreciation will be realized in the future. Accordingly, such fee, as calculated and accrued, would not necessarily be payable under the Investment Advisory Agreement, and may never be paid based upon the computation of incentive fees in subsequent period.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company did
Administration Agreement
The Company has entered into an administration agreement (the “Administration Agreement”) with BCPC Advisors, LP (in such capacity, the “Administrator”), as of September 28, 2023, pursuant to which the Administrator provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate, and the Company utilizes the Administrator’s office facilities, equipment and recordkeeping services. Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Administrator has agreed to oversee our public reporting requirements and tax reporting and monitor our expenses and the performance of professional services rendered to us by others. The Administrator has also hired a sub-administrator to assist in the provision of administrative services. The Company may reimburse the Administrator for its costs and expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including certain compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by our officers (including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and any of their respective staff who provide services to us, operations staff who provide services to us, and internal audit staff, if any, to the extent internal audit performs a role in our Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, (“Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) internal control assessment. Our allocable portion of overhead is determined by the Administrator, which uses various
31
methodologies such as allocation based on the percentage of time certain individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to the business and affairs of the Company, and will be subject to oversight by the Board.
The Company incurred $
The sub-administrator is paid its compensation for performing its sub-administrative services under the sub-administration agreement. The Company incurred $
Resource Sharing Agreement
The Company’s investment activities are managed by the Advisor, an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC under the Advisers Act. The Advisor is responsible for originating prospective investments, conducting research and due diligence investigations on potential investments, analyzing investment opportunities, negotiating and structuring our investments and monitoring our investments and portfolio companies on an ongoing basis.
The Advisor has entered into a Resource Sharing Agreement (the “Resource Sharing Agreement”) with Bain Capital Credit, pursuant to which Bain Capital Credit provides the Advisor with experienced investment professionals (including the members of the Advisor’s Credit Committee) and access to the resources of Bain Capital Credit so as to enable the Advisor to fulfill its obligations under the Investment Advisory Agreement. Through the Resource Sharing Agreement, the Advisor intends to capitalize on the significant deal origination, credit underwriting, due diligence, investment structuring, execution, portfolio management and monitoring experience of Bain Capital Credit’s investment professionals. There can be no assurance that Bain Capital Credit will perform its obligations under the Resource Sharing Agreement. The Resource Sharing Agreement may be terminated by either party on
Co-investments
The Company invests alongside our affiliates, subject to compliance with applicable regulations and our allocation procedures. Certain types of negotiated co-investments will be made only in accordance with the terms of the exemptive order applicable to the Company received from the SEC on August 23, 2016 (as subsequently amended, the “Order”). Under the terms of the Order, a “required majority” (as defined in Section 57(o) of the 1940 Act) of our independent trustees must be able to reach certain conclusions in connection with a co-investment transaction, including that (1) the terms of the proposed transaction are reasonable and fair to us and our shareholders and do not involve overreaching of us or our shareholders on the part of any person concerned, and (2) the transaction is consistent with the interests of our shareholders and is consistent with our Board’s approved criteria. In certain situations where co-investment with one or more funds managed by the Advisor or its affiliates is not covered by the Order, the personnel of the Advisor or its affiliates will need to decide which funds will proceed with the investment. Such personnel will make these determinations based on policies and procedures, which are designed to reasonably ensure that investment opportunities are allocated fairly and equitably among affiliated funds over time and in a manner that is consistent with applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Managing Dealer Agreement
The Company entered into a Managing Dealer Agreement with Emerson Equity LLC (the “Managing Dealer”), pursuant to which the Managing Dealer agreed to, among other things, manage our relationships with third-party brokers engaged by the Managing Dealer to participate in the distribution of Common Shares, which we refer to as “participating brokers,” and financial advisors. The Managing Dealer also coordinates our marketing and distribution efforts with participating brokers and their registered representatives with respect to communications related to the terms of the offering, our investment strategies, material aspects of our operations and subscription procedures. We will not pay referral or similar fees to any accountants, attorneys or other persons in connection with the distribution of our shares.
We have paid the Managing Dealer an engagement fee equal to $
Neither the Company nor the Managing Dealer will charge upfront sales loads with respect to Class S shares, Class D shares or Class I shares; however, if you buy Class S shares or Class D shares through certain financial intermediaries, such intermediaries may directly charge you transaction or other fees, including upfront placement fees or brokerage commissions, in such amount as they may determine, provided that they limit such charges to a

The shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees will be paid monthly in arrears.

to receive it for failure to provide such services. Because the shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees with respect to Class S shares and Class D shares are calculated based on the aggregate NAV for all of the outstanding shares of each such class, it reduces the NAV with respect to all shares of each such class, including shares issued under our distribution reinvestment plan.
Eligibility to receive the shareholder servicing and/or distribution fee is conditioned on a broker providing the following ongoing services with respect to the Class S or Class D shares: assistance with recordkeeping, answering investor inquiries regarding us, including regarding distribution payments and reinvestments, helping investors understand their investments upon their request, and assistance with share repurchase requests. Participating brokers and servicing brokers are not required to provide such services with respect to Class I shares. If the applicable broker is not eligible to receive the shareholder servicing and/or distribution fee due to failure to provide these services, the Managing Dealer will waive the shareholder servicing fee and/or distribution that broker would have otherwise been eligible to receive. The shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees are ongoing fees that are not paid at the time of purchase.
We will cease paying the shareholder servicing and/or distribution fee on the Class S shares and Class D shares on the earlier to occur of the following: (i) a listing of Class I shares, (ii) our merger or consolidation with or into another entity, or the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of our assets or (iii) the date following the completion of the primary portion of the offering of the Company’s Common Shares on which, in the aggregate, underwriting compensation from all sources in connection with the offering of the Company’s Common Shares, including the shareholder servicing and/or distribution fee and other underwriting compensation, is equal to

Expense Support and Conditional Reimbursement Agreement
On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into an expense support and conditional reimbursement agreement (the “Expense Support Agreement”) with the Advisor, pursuant to which the Advisor (i) has agreed to pay, on a monthly basis, a portion of the Company’s Other Operating Expenses (as defined below) to the effect that such expenses do not exceed 1.00% (on annualized basis) of the Company’s NAV (each such payment, a “Required Expense Payment”), and (ii) may elect to pay an additional portion of the Company’s expenses from time to time, provided that no portion of the payment will be used to pay any interest or distributions and/or shareholder servicing fees of the Company, (each such payment, a “Voluntary Expense Payment”), which the Company will be obligated to reimburse to the Advisor at a later date if certain conditions are met.
“Other Operating Expenses” means the Company’s organization and offering expenses, professional fees, trustee fees, administration fees, and other general and administrative expenses (including the Company’s allocable portion of compensation, overhead (including rent, office equipment and utilities) and other expenses incurred by the Company’s administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement.
The Advisor’s obligation to make a Required Expense Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Advisor and the Company’s right to receive a Required Expense Payment shall be an asset of the Company on the last calendar day of the applicable month. Any Required Expense Payment shall be paid by the Advisor to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds and/or offset against amounts due from the Company to the Advisor or its affiliates no later than forty-five days after such obligation was incurred.
35
The Company’s right to receive a Voluntary Expense Payment shall be an asset of the Company upon the Advisor committing in writing to pay the Voluntary Expense Payment. Any Voluntary Expense Payment that the Advisor has committed to pay shall be paid by the Advisor to the Company in any combination of cash or other immediately available funds no later than forty-five days after such commitment was made in writing, and/or offset against amounts due from the Company to the Advisor or its affiliates.
Following any calendar month in which Available Operating Funds (as defined below) exceed the cumulative distributions accrued to the Company’s shareholders based on distributions declared with respect to record dates occurring in such calendar month (the amount of such excess being hereinafter referred to as “Excess Operating Funds”), the Company shall pay such Excess Operating Funds, or a portion thereof, to the Advisor until such time as all Expense Payments made by the Advisor to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month have been reimbursed. Any payments required to be made by the Company shall be referred to herein as a “Reimbursement Payment.” “Available Operating Funds” means the sum of (i) net investment company taxable income (including net short-term capital gains reduced by net long-term capital losses), (ii) net capital gains (including the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) and (iii) dividends and other distributions paid on account of investments in portfolio companies (to the extent such amounts listed in clause (iii) are not included under clauses (i) and (ii) above).
The amount of the Reimbursement Payment for any calendar month shall equal the lesser of (i) the Excess Operating Funds in such quarter and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Expense Payments made by the Advisor to the Company within three years prior to the last business day of such calendar month that have not been previously reimbursed by the Company to the Advisor; provided that the Advisor may waive its right to receive all or a portion of any Reimbursement Payment in any particular calendar month, in which case such waived amount will remain unreimbursed Expense Payments reimbursable in future months pursuant to the terms of the Expense Support Agreement.
No Reimbursement Payment for any quarter shall be made if: (1) the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share declared by the Company at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is less than the Effective Rate of Distributions Per Share at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relates, (2) the Company’s Operating Expense Ratio at the time of such Reimbursement Payment is greater than the Operating Expense Ratio at the time the Expense Payment was made to which such Reimbursement Payment relate, or (3) the Company’s Other Operating Expenses at the time of such Reimbursement Payment exceeds
The Company’s obligation to make a Reimbursement Payment shall automatically become a liability of the Company on the last business day of the applicable calendar month, except to the extent the Advisor has waived its right to receive such payment for the applicable month.

Note 7. Derivatives
The Company is subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. The value of foreign investments held by the Company may be significantly affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The dollar value of a foreign security generally decreases when the value of the dollar rises against the foreign currency in which the security is denominated and tends to increase when the value of the dollar declines against such foreign currency.
The Company may enter into forward currency exchange contracts to reduce the Company’s exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the value of foreign currencies, as described in Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The fair value of derivative contracts open as of June 30, 2024 is included on the consolidated schedules of investments by contract. The Company had collateral receivable of $
39
on foreign currency exchange contracts. Collateral amounts posted are included in collateral on forward currency exchange contracts on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. Collateral payable is included in collateral payable on forward currency exchange contracts on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company’s average U.S. dollar notional exposure to forward currency exchange contracts were $
The Company presents forward currency exchange contracts on a net basis by counterparty on the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities. The Company has elected not to offset assets and liabilities in the consolidated statements of assets and liabilities that may be received or paid as part of collateral arrangements, even when an enforceable master netting arrangement or other arrangement is in place that provides the Company, in the event of counterparty default, the right to liquidate collateral and the right to offset a counterparty’s rights and obligations.

NAV Per Share and Offering Price
The Company determines NAV for each class of shares as of the last day of each calendar month. Share issuances related to monthly subscriptions are effective the first calendar day of each month. Shares are issued at an offering price equivalent to the most recent NAV per share available for each share class, which will be the prior calendar day NAV per share (i.e. the prior month-end NAV).

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and other parts of this report contain forward-looking information that involves risks and uncertainties. The discussion and analysis contained in this section refers to our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. The information contained in this section should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this report. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with this discussion and analysis. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking information due to factors discussed under “Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere in this report.
Overview
The Company is a newly organized, externally managed specialty finance company focused on lending to middle market companies. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the 1940 Act. We are managed by our Advisor, a subsidiary of Bain Capital Credit. Our Advisor is registered as an investment adviser with the SEC under the Advisers Act. Our Advisor also provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate in the capacity as the Administrator. The Company commenced operations on November 28, 2023. We seek to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, capital appreciation through direct originations of secured debt, including first lien, unitranche, including last-out portions of such loans, and second lien debt, subordinated debt, as well as through select equity investments, investments in strategic joint ventures and, to a lesser extent, corporate bonds.
We are a non-exchange traded, perpetual-life BDC whose shares are not listed for trading on a stock exchange or other securities market. The term “perpetual-life” is used to differentiate our structure from other BDCs who have a finite offering period and/or have a predefined time period to pursue a liquidity event or to wind down the fund. In contrast, in a perpetual-life BDC structure like ours, we expect to offer Common Shares continuously at a price equal the monthly NAV per share and we have an indefinite duration, with no obligation to effect a liquidity event at any time. We generally intend to offer our common shareholders an opportunity to have their shares repurchased on a quarterly basis, subject to an aggregate cap of 5% of shares outstanding. However, the determination to repurchase shares in any given quarter is fully at the discretion of our Board, so investors may not always have access to liquidity when they desire it. See “Risk Factors.”
Our primary focus is capitalizing on opportunities by investing primarily in middle market direct lending opportunities across North America, Europe and Australia and also in other geographic markets. We use the term “middle market” to refer to companies with between $10.0 million and $150.0 million in annual earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. We focus on (i) senior secured credit investments with a first or second lien on collateral and strong structures and documentation intended to protect the lender and (ii) mezzanine debt and other junior securities with a focus on downside protection. We may also invest in common and preferred equity and in secondary purchases of assets or portfolios, on an opportunistic basis, but such investments are not the principal focus of our investment strategy.
Following our initial public offering, the value at which our new Common Shares may be offered, or our Common Shares may be repurchased, will be equal to our monthly NAV per share. In addition, an investment in our Common Shares has limited or no liquidity beyond our share repurchase program, and our share repurchase program can be modified, suspended or terminated at the Board’s discretion. Our Common Shares may be purchased by any investor who meets the minimum suitability requirements described under “Suitability Standards” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023. Purchases of our Common Shares must be fully funded at the time of subscription.
We have a perpetual life and may continue to take in new capital on a continuous basis at a value generally equal to our NAV per share. We will be continually originating new investments to the extent we raise additional capital. We will also be regularly recycling capital from our existing investors into new investments.

Our level of investment activity may vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt and equity capital available to middle-market companies, the level of merger and acquisition activity for such companies, the level of investment and capital expenditures of such companies, the general economic environment, the amount of capital we have available to us and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.
As a BDC, we may not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the 1940 Act, unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of our total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions). Qualifying assets include investments in “eligible portfolio companies.” Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, “eligible portfolio companies” include certain companies that do not have any securities listed on a national securities exchange and public companies whose securities are listed on a national securities exchange but whose market capitalization is less than $250 million.
47
As a BDC, we may also invest up to 30% of our portfolio opportunistically in “non-qualifying” portfolio investments, such as investments in non-U.S. companies.
We may invest in debt securities which are either rated below investment grade or not rated by any rating agency but, if they were rated, would be rated below investment grade. Below investment grade securities, which are often referred to as “junk,” have predominantly speculative characteristics with respect to the issuer’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal. They may also be illiquid and difficult to value.
Revenues
We generate revenues primarily through receipt of interest income from the investments we hold. In addition, we generate income from various loan origination and other fees, dividends on direct equity investments and capital gains on the sales of investments. The companies in which we invest use our capital for a variety of reasons, including to support organic growth, to fund changes of control, to fund acquisitions, to make capital investments and for refinancing and recapitalizations. Leverage may be utilized to help the Company meet its investment objective. Any such leverage would be expected to increase the total capital available for investment by the Company.
Our debt investment portfolio consists of primarily floating rate loans. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, 94.8% and 100.0%, respectively, of our debt investments, based on fair value, bore interest at floating rates, which may be subject to interest rate floors. Variable-rate investments subject to a floor generally reset periodically to the applicable floor, only if the floor exceeds the index. Trends in base interest rates, such as Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), may affect our net investment income over the long term. In addition, our results may vary from period to period depending on the interest rates of new investments made during the period compared to investments that were sold or repaid during the period; these results reflect the characteristics of the particular portfolio companies that we invested in or exited during the period and not necessarily any trends in our business or macroeconomic trends.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an 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 investments is recorded on the record date for private portfolio companies and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies.
Expenses
Our primary operating expenses include the payment of fees to the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement, our allocable portion of overhead expenses under the Administration Agreement and other operating costs described below. We bear all other out-of-pocket costs and expenses of our operations and transactions, including:

51
To the extent that expenses to be borne by us are paid by our Advisor, we will generally reimburse our Advisor for such expenses. To the extent the Administrator outsources any of its functions, we will pay the fees associated with such functions on a direct basis without profit to the Administrator. We also reimburse the Administrator for its costs and expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including rent and compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by our officers (including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and any of their respective staff who provide services to us, operations staff who provide services to us, internal audit staff, if any, to the extent internal audit performs a role in our Sarbanes-Oxley Act internal control assessment and fees paid to third-party providers for goods or services. Our allocable portion of overhead will be determined by the Administrator, which expects to use various methodologies such as allocation based on the percentage of time certain individuals devote, on an estimated basis, to our business and affairs, and will be subject to oversight by the Board. We incurred expenses related to the Administrator and to BCSF Advisors, LP (in its former capacity as our administrator) of $0.2 million and $0.0 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in other general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The sub-administrator is paid its compensation for performing its sub-administrative services under the sub-administration agreement. We incurred expenses related to the sub-administrator of $0.2 million and $0.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively, which is included in other general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The Advisor will not be reimbursed to the extent that such reimbursements would cause any distributions to our shareholders to constitute a return of capital. All of the foregoing expenses are ultimately borne by our shareholders.
BCSF Advisors, LP, in its capacity as our investment adviser prior to September 28, 2023, and the Advisor advanced all expenses incurred on our behalf through the date on which we broke escrow for our offering.
Leverage
From time to time, we may borrow funds, including under our credit facilities, or issue debt securities or preferred securities to make additional investments or for other purposes. This is known as “leverage” and could increase or decrease returns to our shareholders. The use of borrowed funds or the proceeds of preferred securities offerings to make investments has specific benefits and risks, and all of the costs of borrowing funds or issuing preferred securities are borne by our shareholders. As a BDC, with certain limited exceptions, we may only borrow amounts such that our asset coverage ratio, as defined in the 1940 Act, is in compliance with the ratio for BDCs set forth in the 1940 Act. The Company is permitted to borrow amounts such that its asset coverage ratio is at least 150% after such borrowing (if certain requirements are met). As of June 30, 2024, the Company's asset coverage ratio was 183.9%.
Our leverage may take the form of revolving or term loans from financial institutions, secured or unsecured bonds, securitization of portions of our investment portfolio via collateralized loan obligations or preferred shares.
Investment Decision Process
The Advisor’s investment process can be broken into five processes: (1) Sourcing and Idea Generation, (2) Investment Diligence & Recommendation, (3) Credit Committee Approval, (4) Portfolio Construction and (5) Portfolio & Risk Management.
Sourcing and Idea Generation
The investment decision-making process begins with sourcing ideas. Bain Capital Credit’s Private Credit Group interacts with a broad and deep set of global sourcing contacts, enabling the group to generate a large set of middle-market investment opportunities. Further enhancing the sourcing capability of the core Private Credit Group are Bain Capital Credit’s industry groups, Trading Desk, and the Bain Capital Special Situations team. The team has extensive contacts with private equity firms. Relationships with banks, a variety of advisors and intermediaries and a handful of unique independent sponsors compose the remainder of the relationships. Through these sourcing efforts the Private Credit Group has built a sustainable deal funnel, which has generated hundreds of opportunities to review annually.
Investment Diligence & Recommendation
Our Advisor utilizes Bain Capital Credit’s bottom-up approach to investing, and it starts with due diligence. The Private Credit Group works with the close support of Bain Capital Credit’s industry groups on performing due diligence. This process typically begins with a detailed review of the offering memorandum as well as Bain Capital Credit’s own independent diligence efforts, including in-house materials and expertise, third-party independent research and interviews, and hands-on field checks where appropriate. For deals that progress beyond an initial stage, the team will schedule one or more meetings with company management, facilities visits and also meetings with the sponsor in order to ask more detailed questions and to better understand the sponsor’s view of the business and plans for it going forward. The team’s diligence work is summarized in investment memorandums and accompanying credit packs. Work
52
product also includes full models and covenant analysis. The approval process itself is iterative, involving multiple levels of discussion and approval.
Credit Committee Approval
Given Bain Capital Credit’s broad and diverse range of investment strategies, we tailor our investment decision-making process by strategy to provide a robust and comprehensive discussion of both individual investments and the applicable portfolio(s) under consideration. We believe that this flexible approach provides a rigorous investment decision-making process that allows us to be nimble across a variety of market environments while still maintaining high credit underwriting standards.
Our investments require approval from at least the Private Credit Investment Committee, which includes three Partners in the Private Credit Group as standing members: Michael Ewald, Mike Boyle, and Carolyn Hastings. Ad hoc members may also be included in the Private Credit Investment Committee for certain types of investments.
Portfolio Construction
Portfolio construction is largely the responsibility of the portfolio managers. The portfolio managers will construct the portfolio using a set of approved investments. While the decision to buy generally requires approval from at least the Private Credit Investment Committee, the decision to sell securities is at the sole discretion of the portfolio managers. For middle-market holdings, the path to exit an investment is discussed at credit committee meetings, including restructurings, acquisitions and sale to strategic buyers. Since most middle-market investments are illiquid, exits are driven primarily by a sale of the portfolio company or a refinancing of the portfolio company’s debt.
Portfolio & Risk Management
Our Advisor utilizes Bain Capital Credit’s Private Credit Group for the daily monitoring of its respective credits after an investment has been made. Our Advisor believes that the ongoing monitoring of financial performance and market developments of portfolio investments is critical to successful investment management. Accordingly, our Advisor is actively involved in an on-going portfolio review process and attends board meetings. To the extent a portfolio investment is not meeting our Advisor’s expectations, our Advisor takes corrective action when it deems appropriate, which may include raising interest rates, gaining a more influential role on its board, taking warrants and, where appropriate, restructuring the balance sheet to take control of the company. Our Advisor will utilize the Bain Capital Credit Risk and Oversight Committee. The Risk and Oversight Committee is responsible for monitoring and reviewing risk management, including portfolio risk, counterparty risk and firm-wide risk issues. In addition to the methods noted above, there are a number of proprietary methods and tools used through all levels of Bain Capital Credit to manage portfolio risk.
Portfolio and Investment Activity
During the three months ended June 30, 2024, we invested $56.4 million, including PIK, in 17 portfolio companies, and had $19.0 million in aggregate amount of principal repayment and sales, resulting in a net increase in investment of $37.4 million for the period. Of the $56.4 million invested during the three months ended June 30, 2024, $0.0 million was related to drawdowns on delayed draw term loans and revolvers of our portfolio companies.
During the three months ended June 30, 2023, we invested $0.6 million in one portfolio company.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we invested $188.9 million, including PIK, in 45 portfolio companies, and had $33.8 million in aggregate amount of principal repayment and sales, resulting in a net increase in investment of $155.1 million for the period. Of the $188.9 million invested during the six months ended June 30, 2024, $1.7 million was related to drawdowns on delayed draw term loans and revolvers of our portfolio companies.
During the six months ended June 30, 2023, we invested $0.6 million in one portfolio company.

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. 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 is paid and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. We may make exceptions to this treatment if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of June 30, 2024, there were no loans placed on non-accrual in the Company’s portfolio. As of December 31, 2023, there were no loans placed on non-accrual in the Company's portfolio.

Our Advisor monitors our portfolio companies on an ongoing basis. It monitors the financial trends of each portfolio company to determine if they are meeting their respective business plans and to assess the appropriate course of action for each company. The Advisor has several methods of evaluating and monitoring the performance and fair value of our investments, which may include the following:
Our Advisor rates the investments in our portfolio at least quarterly and it is possible that the rating of a portfolio investment may be reduced or increased over time. For investments rated 3 or 4, our Advisor enhances its level of scrutiny over the monitoring of such portfolio company. Our internal performance ratings do not constitute any rating of investments by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization or represent or reflect any third-party assessment of any of our investments.

Based on the weighted average Common Shares outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our per share net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $0.92 and $(9.37), respectively.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $9.4 million and $(1.1) million, respectively. Based on the weighted average Common Shares outstanding for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our per share net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations was $1.65 and $(52.36), respectively.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our liquidity and capital resources are derived primarily from proceeds from equity issuances, advances from our credit facilities (including the GS Revolving Credit Facility and the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility), debt issuances and cash flows from operations. We use the net proceeds from the offering to (1) make investments in accordance with our investment strategy and policies, (2) fund repurchases under our share repurchase program, and (3) for general corporate purposes. Generally, our policy is to pay distributions and operating expenses from cash flow from operations, however, we are not restricted from funding these items from proceeds from the offering of the Company's Common Shares or other sources and may choose to do so, particularly in the earlier part of the offering.
We intend to continue to generate cash primarily from cash flows from operations, future borrowings and future offerings of securities. We may from time to time raise additional equity or debt capital through registered offerings, enter into additional debt facilities, or increase the size of existing facilities or issue debt securities. Any such incurrence or issuance would be subject to prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual and regulatory restrictions and other factors. We are required to meet an asset coverage ratio, defined under the 1940 Act as the ratio of our total assets (less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by senior securities) to our outstanding senior securities, of at least 150% after each issuance of senior securities. As of June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had $194.8 million and $100.0 million outstanding senior securities, respectively.
63
At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had $5.6 million and $19.3 million in cash, foreign cash, restricted cash and cash equivalents, respectively.
At June 30, 2024, we had approximately $18.7 million of availability on our SMBC Revolving Credit Facility and $36.5 million of availability on our GS Revolving Credit Facility, subject to existing terms and regulatory requirements. At December 31, 2023, we had approximately $48.0 million of availability on our SMBC Revolving Credit Facility and $52.0 million of availability on our GS Revolving Credit Facility, subject to existing terms and regulatory requirements.
For the six months ended June 30, 2024, cash, foreign cash, restricted cash, and cash equivalents decreased by $13.7 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we used $151.1 million in cash for operating activities. The increase in cash used for operating activities was primarily related to the purchases of investments of $191.2 million, which was offset by proceeds from principal payments and sales of investments of $33.9 million and a net increase in assets resulting from operations of $9.4 million.
During the six months ended June 30, 2024, we provided $137.4 million for financing activities, primarily due to borrowings on the GS Revolving Credit Facility and SMBC Revolving Credit Facility, proceeds from issuance of Common Shares and distributions paid to shareholders.
Equity

Goldman Sachs Revolving Credit Facility
On November 29, 2023, the Company entered into a revolving credit facility (the “GS Revolving Credit Facility”) as borrower (the “Borrower”), Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as syndication agent and administrative agent (“Goldman Sachs”), and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as collateral administrator, collateral agent and collateral custodian (“Computershare”).
The maximum commitment amount under the GS Revolving Credit Facility was $150,000,000. Proceeds of the borrowings under the GS Revolving Credit Facility may be used, among other things, to fund portfolio investments by the Borrower and to make advances under delayed draw term loans and revolving loans where the Borrower is a lender. Borrowings under the GS Revolving Credit Facility accrue interest at a rate per annum equal to the floating rate applicable to the currency of such borrowings (which, for U.S. dollar-denominated borrowings, is three-month term SOFR), plus an applicable margin of 2.90%. The Borrower is required to utilize a minimum percentage of the commitments under the GS Revolving Credit Facility, with unused amounts below such minimum utilization amount accruing a fee at a rate equal to the interest rate for U.S. dollar advances as described above. In addition, the Borrower pays a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum on the average daily unused amount of the commitments under the GS Revolving Credit Facility in excess of such minimum utilization amount, in addition to certain other fees as agreed between the Borrower and Goldman Sachs.
On March 22, 2024, the BCPC I, LLC entered into a New Commitment Request (the “New Commitment Request”) among BCPC I, LLC, as borrower, the Company, as equity holder, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent and syndication agent, and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as collateral administrator, collateral agent and
64
collateral custodian.
The New Commitment Request provides for an increase in the aggregate commitments of the lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility from $150,000,000 to $175,000,000 through the accordion feature in the Revolving Credit Facility. The accordion feature in the Revolving Credit Facility allows the Fund, under certain circumstances, to increase the total size of the facility to a maximum of $250,000,000.The period during which the Borrower may make borrowings under the GS Revolving Credit Facility expires on November 29, 2026, and the GS Revolving Credit Facility will mature and all amounts outstanding must be repaid by November 29, 2028.
The GS Revolving Credit Facility includes customary affirmative and negative covenants, including certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, as well as usual and customary events of default for revolving credit facilities of this nature. Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an event of default, Goldman Sachs may declare the outstanding advances and all other obligations under the GS Revolving Credit Facility immediately due and payable. The Borrower’s obligations under the GS Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first priority security interest in all of the Borrower’s portfolio investments and cash.
As of June 30, 2024, there were $156.3 million in borrowings under the GS Revolving Credit Facility.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding senior securities.
SMBC Revolving Credit Facility
On December 29, 2023, the Company entered into a senior secured revolving credit agreement (the “SMBC Revolving Credit Facility”) as Borrower, with Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as administrative agent, sole book runner and lead arranger. The SMBC Revolving Credit Facility is effective as of December 29, 2023.
The facility amount under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility is $50,000,000 with an accordion provision to permit increases to the total facility amount up to $500,000,000. Proceeds of the loans under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes of the Company, including, without limitation, repaying outstanding indebtedness, making distributions, contributions and investments, and acquiring and funding investments permitted under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility, and such other uses as permitted under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility. The maturity date is December 29, 2028.
Interest under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility is equal to (I) (a) if the borrowing base (as of the most recently delivered borrowing base certificate delivered under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility) is less than 1.60 times the Combined Debt Amount, (i) with respect to any ABR Loan, 1.125% per annum; (ii) with respect to any Term Benchmark Loan, 2.125% per annum; and (iii) with respect to any RFR Loan, 2.125% per annum or (b) if the borrowing base is greater than or equal to 1.60 times the Combined Debt Amount, (i) with respect to any ABR Loan, 1.00% per annum; (ii) with respect to any Term Benchmark Loan, 2.00% per annum; and (iii) with respect to any RFR Loan, 2.00% per annum plus (II) an applicable credit spread adjustment of (a) with respect to any Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars, a flat credit adjustment spread of 0.10%; and (b) with respect to any RFR Loan denominated in Sterling, a flat credit spread adjustment of 0.0326%; provided, however, to the extent the Company does not have an investment grade rating from any nationally recognized rating agency on the nine-month anniversary of the closing date, the otherwise applicable Applicable Margin shall be increased by 0.125% per annum until such rating is obtained.
On May 24, 2024, the Company entered into a Commitment Increase Supplement (the “Joinder Agreement”), dated as of May 24, 2024, between the Company and Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as increasing lender and administrative agent, pursuant to Section 2.08(e) of the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility, dated as of December 29, 2023 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among the Company, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, as administrative agent, and the lenders and issuing banks party thereto. The Joinder Agreement provides for, among other things, an upsize in the total commitments from lenders under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility governed by the Credit Agreement from $50,000,000 to $75,000,000.
As of June 30, 2024, there were $38.5 million in borrowings under the SMBC Revolving Credit Facility.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company had no outstanding senior securities.

Distributions to common shareholders are recorded on the record date. To the extent that we have income available, we intend to distribute monthly distributions to our shareholders. Our monthly distributions, if any, will be determined by the Advisor. Any distributions to our shareholders will be declared out of assets legally available for distribution.
Sources of distributions, other than net investment income and realized gains on a U.S. GAAP basis, include required adjustments to U.S. GAAP net investment income in the current period to determine taxable income available for distributions. The following table reflects the sources of cash distributions on a U.S. GAAP basis that the Company has declared on its Common Shares during the six months ended June 30, 2024:

We commenced regular monthly distributions after breaking escrow on November 28, 2023. The Board delegated authority to declare distributions to the Advisor in an aggregate amount up to all of the Company’s (i) taxable earnings; (ii) capital gains; (iii) net proceeds attributable to the repayment or disposition of investments (together with any interest, dividends and other net cash flow in respect of such investments); and (iv) any other amounts legally available for distribution to the extent the officers of the Company deem appropriate (including, if applicable, amounts representing a return of capital); provided each distribution shall not exceed an annualized distribution yield of 10%. Any distributions we make will be at the discretion of our Advisor, who will consider, among other things, our earnings, cash flow, capital needs and general financial condition, as well as our desire to comply with the RIC requirements, which generally require us to make aggregate annual distributions to our shareholders of at least 90% of our net investment income. As a result, our distribution rates and payment frequency may vary from time to time and there is no assurance we will pay distributions in any particular amount, if at all.
The per share amount of distributions on Class S, Class D and Class I shares will generally differ because of different class-specific shareholder servicing and/or distribution fees that are deducted from the gross distributions for each share class.
For the six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company did not declare or pay any distributions.
We intend to elect to be treated, and intend to operate in a manner so as to continuously qualify, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code, beginning with our taxable year ended December 31, 2023. To qualify for and maintain RIC tax treatment, among other things, we must distribute dividends to our shareholders in respect of each taxable year of an amount generally at least equal to 90% of the sum of our net ordinary income and net short-term capital gains in excess of our net long-term capital losses. In order to avoid the imposition of certain excise taxes imposed on RICs, we must distribute dividends to our shareholders in respect of each calendar year of an amount at least equal to the sum of: (1) 98% of our net ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for such calendar year; (2) 98.2% of our capital gains in excess of capital losses, adjusted for certain ordinary losses, generally for the one-year period ending on October 31 of such calendar year; and (3) the sum of any net ordinary income plus capital gains net income for preceding years that were not distributed during such years and on which we paid no federal income tax.
The U.S. federal income tax characterization of distributions declared and paid for the fiscal year will be determined at fiscal year-end based upon our investment company taxable income for the full fiscal year and distributions paid during the full year.
Distribution Reinvestment Plan
66
We have adopted a distribution reinvestment plan, which is an “opt-out” distribution reinvestment plan.
Under this plan, shareholders (other than those located in specific states, who are clients of selected participating brokers, as outlined below, or who have elected to “opt out” of the plan) will have their cash distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same class of our Common Shares to which the distribution relates. If a shareholder elects to “opt out,” that shareholder will receive cash distributions. The purchase price for shares purchased under our distribution reinvestment plan will be equal to the then-current NAV per share of the relevant class of Common Shares. Shareholders will not pay transaction related charges when purchasing shares under our distribution reinvestment plan, but all outstanding Class S and Class D shares, including those purchased under our distribution reinvestment plan, will be subject to ongoing servicing fees. The U.S. federal income tax characterization of distributions declared and paid for the fiscal year will be determined at fiscal year-end based upon our investment company taxable income for the full fiscal year and distributions paid during the full year.
Share Repurchase Program
Subject to the discretion of the Board, we commenced a share repurchase program pursuant to which we intend to conduct quarterly repurchase offers to allow our shareholders to tender their shares at a price equal to the NAV per share for the applicable class of shares on each date of repurchase. Our Board may amend, suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time if it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of our shareholders. As a result, share repurchases may not be available each quarter.
Under our share repurchase program, to the extent we offer to repurchase shares in any particular quarter, we intend to limit the number of shares to be repurchased to no more than 5% of our outstanding Common Shares as of the last day of the immediately preceding quarter. In the event the number of shares tendered exceeds the repurchase offer amount, shares will be repurchased on a pro rata basis. All unsatisfied repurchase requests must be resubmitted in the next quarterly tender offer, or upon the recommencement of the share repurchase program, as applicable. We may choose to offer to repurchase fewer shares than described above, or none at all.
We expect to repurchase shares pursuant to tender offers each quarter using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable quarter, except that shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be repurchased at 98% of such NAV (an “Early Repurchase Deduction”). The one-year holding period is measured as of the subscription closing date immediately following the prospective repurchase date. The Early Repurchase Deduction 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 Deduction will be retained by the Company for the benefit of remaining shareholders. We intend to conduct the repurchase offers in accordance with the requirements of Rule 13e-4 promulgated under the Exchange Act and the 1940 Act. All shares purchased by us pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares.

We may become a party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk in the normal course of our business to fund investments and to meet the financial needs of our portfolio companies. These instruments may include commitments to extend credit and involve, to varying degrees, elements of liquidity and credit risk in excess of the amount recognized on the statements of assets and liabilities.
Other Commitments and Contingencies
From time to time, we may become a party to certain legal proceedings incidental to the normal course of its business. At June 30, 2024, management is not aware of any pending or threatened litigation.
Related-Party Transactions
We entered into a number of business relationships with affiliated or related parties, including the Investment Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement.
In addition to the aforementioned agreements, we, our Advisor and certain of our Advisor’s affiliates have been granted exemptive relief by the SEC to co-invest with other funds managed by our Advisor 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. For additional information, see “Note 5. Agreements and Related Party Transactions” to the consolidated financial statements.
Recent Developments

On July 17, 2024, the Board declared net distributions of $0.1875 per Class I share, which are payable on or about August 31, 2024 to shareholders of record as of July 31, 2024.
Share Repurchase
On August 2, 2024, the Company commenced a tender offer to repurchase up to 5% of its Class I shares outstanding as of June 30, 2024 that will close on August 30, 2024.
Significant Accounting Estimates and Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The Company’s consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with US GAAP. The Company’s consolidated financial statements and related financial information have been prepared pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10‑Q and Articles 1, 6, 10 and 12 of Regulation S-X. These consolidated financial statements reflect adjustments that in the opinion of the Company are necessary for the fair statement of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented herein and are not necessarily indicative of the full fiscal year. We have determined we meet the definition of an investment company and follow the accounting and reporting guidance in the FASB ASC Topic 946 — Financial Services — Investment Companies. Our financial currency is U.S. dollars and these consolidated financial statements have been prepared in that currency.
69
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Revenue Recognition
We record our investment transactions on a trade date basis. We record realized gains and losses based on the specific identification method. We record interest income, adjusted for amortization of premium and accretion of discount, on an accrual basis. Discount and premium to par value on investments acquired are accreted and amortized, respectively, into interest income over the life of the respective investment using the effective interest method. Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount or premium are capitalized and amortized into or against interest income using the effective interest method or straight-line method, as applicable. We record any prepayment premiums, unamortized upfront loan origination fees and unamortized discounts received upon prepayment of a loan or debt security as interest income.
Dividend income on preferred equity investments is recorded on an 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 investments is recorded on the record date for such distributions in the case of private portfolio companies, and on the ex-dividend date for publicly traded portfolio companies. Distributions received from a limited liability company or limited partnership investment are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital.
Certain investments may have contractual PIK interest or dividends. PIK represents accrued interest or accumulated dividends that are added to the loan principal of the investment on the respective interest or dividend payment dates rather than being paid in cash and generally becomes due at maturity or upon being called by the issuer. We record PIK as interest or dividend income, as applicable. If at any point we believe PIK may not be realized, we place the investment generating PIK on non-accrual status. When a PIK investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest or dividends are generally reversed through interest or dividend income, as applicable.
Certain structuring fees and amendment fees are recorded as other income when earned. We record administrative agent fees received as other income when the services are rendered.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments
The Advisor shall value the investments owned by the Company, subject at all times to the oversight of the Board. The Advisor shall follow its own written valuation policies and procedures as approved by the Board when determining valuations. A short summary of the Advisor’s valuation policies is below.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are typically valued at such market quotations. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designates the Advisor as valuation designee to perform fair value determinations for the Company for investments that do not have readily available market quotations. Market quotations are obtained from an independent pricing service, where available. If a price cannot be obtained from an independent pricing service or if the independent pricing service is not deemed to be current with the market, certain investments held by the Company will be valued on the basis of prices provided by principal market makers. Generally, investments marked in this manner will be marked at the mean of the bid and ask of the independent broker quotes obtained. To validate market quotations, the Company utilizes a number of factors to determine if the quotations are representative of fair value, including the source and number of quotations. Debt and equity securities that are not publicly traded or whose market prices are not readily available will be valued at a price that reflects such security’s fair value.
With respect to unquoted portfolio investments, the Company will value each investment considering, among other measures, discounted cash flow models, comparisons of financial ratios of peer companies that are public, and other factors. When an external event such as a purchase transaction, public offering or subsequent equity sale occurs, the Company will use the pricing indicated by the external event to corroborate and/or assist us in our valuation. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, in particular, illiquid/hard to value assets, the Advisor will typically undertake a multi-step valuation process, which includes among other things, the below:
70
In following this approach, the types of factors that are taken into account in the fair value pricing of investments include, as relevant, but are not limited to: comparison to publicly traded securities, including factors such as yield, maturity and measures of credit quality; the enterprise value of a portfolio company; the nature and realizable value of any collateral; the portfolio company’s ability to make payments and its earnings and discounted cash flows; and the markets in which the portfolio company does business. In cases where an independent valuation firm provides fair valuations for investments, the independent valuation firm provides a fair valuation report, a description of the methodology used to determine the fair value and their analysis and calculations to support their conclusion.
Contractual Obligations
We have entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with our Advisor. Our Advisor has agreed to serve as our investment adviser in accordance with the terms of the Investment Advisory Agreement. Under the Investment Advisory Agreement, we have agreed to pay an annual base management fee as well as an incentive fee based on our investment performance.
On September 28, 2023, the Company entered into the Investment Advisory Agreement with the Advisor. The Investment Advisory Agreement was approved by the Board and sole shareholder on September 28, 2023. In connection with the Company’s entry into the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company’s prior investment advisory agreement with BCSF Advisors, LP was terminated on September 28, 2023. The Investment Advisory Agreement has the same material terms as the prior investment advisory agreement. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the base management fee is calculated at an annual rate of 0.75% (0.1875% per quarter) of our gross assets, including assets purchased with borrowed funds or other forms of leverage but excluding cash and cash equivalents and the incentive fee comprised of two parts, net investment income and capital gains.
We have entered into an Administration Agreement with the Administrator pursuant to which the Administrator will furnish us with administrative services necessary to conduct our day-to-day operations. The Administration Agreement was approved by our Board on September 28, 2023. We reimburse the Administrator for its costs and expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by it in performing its obligations under the Administration Agreement, including certain compensation paid to or compensatory distributions received by our officers (including our Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Financial Officer) and any of their respective staff who provide services to us, operations staff who provide services to us, and internal audit staff, if any, to the extent internal audit performs a role in our Sarbanes-Oxley Act internal control assessment. In connection with our entry into the Administration Agreement, the Company’s prior administration agreement with BCSF Advisors, LP (the “Prior Administration Agreement”) was terminated on September 28, 2023. The Administration Agreement has the same material terms as the Prior Administration Agreement.
If any of our contractual obligations discussed above are terminated, our costs may increase under any new agreements that we enter into as replacements. We would also likely incur expenses in locating alternative parties to provide the services we expect to receive under our Investment Advisory Agreement and Administration Agreement.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates. We will generally invest in illiquid loans and securities including debt and equity securities of middle-market companies. Because we expect that there will not be a readily available market for many of the investments in our portfolio, we expect to value many of our portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor as our valuation designee, subject to the Board’s oversight, using a documented valuation policy and a consistently applied valuation process. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments, and the differences could be material.
Assuming that the statement of financial condition as of June 30, 2024, were to remain constant and that we took no actions to alter our existing interest rate sensitivity, the following table shows the annualized impact of hypothetical base rate changes in interest rates (dollars in thousands):

From time to time, we may make investments that are denominated in a foreign currency. These investments are translated into U.S. dollars at the balance sheet date, exposing us to movements in foreign exchange rates. We may employ hedging techniques to minimize these risks, but we cannot assure investors that such strategies will be effective or without risk to us. We may seek to utilize instruments such as, but not limited to, forward contracts to seek to hedge against fluctuations in the relative values of our portfolio positions from changes in currency exchange rates.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of June 30, 2024 (the end of the period covered by this report), we, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective and provided reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our periodic SEC filings is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. However, in evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognized that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and management necessarily was required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of such possible controls and procedures.
72
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2024 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
73
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
We are not currently subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to our knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against us. From time to time, we may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of our rights under loans to or other contracts with our portfolio companies.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
Other than the shares issued pursuant to our distribution reinvestment plan, we did not sell any unregistered equity securities.
Share Repurchases
We have commenced a share repurchase program in which we intend to offer to repurchase, in each quarter, up to 5% of our Common Shares outstanding (by number of shares) as of the close of the previous calendar quarter. Our Board may amend or suspend the share repurchase program at any time if it deems such action to be in our best interest and the best interest of our shareholders, 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 the Company as a whole, or should we otherwise determine that investing our liquid assets in originated loans or other illiquid investments rather than repurchasing our shares is in the best interests of the Company as a whole. As a result, share 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 Exchange Act and the 1940 Act. All shares purchased by us pursuant to the terms of each tender offer will be retired and thereafter will be authorized and unissued shares.
Under our share repurchase program, to the extent we offer to repurchase shares in any particular quarter, we expect to repurchase shares pursuant to quarterly tender offers using a purchase price equal to the NAV per share as of the last calendar day of the applicable quarter, except that shares that have not been outstanding for at least one year will be repurchased at 98% of such NAV.
