Note 12. Financial Highlights (continued)

Note 13. Dividends

Any dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Any amounts to be paid out as a dividend are determined by our board of directors.

We have adopted an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan for our common stockholders. As a result, if we declare a cash dividend or other distribution, each stockholder that has not “opted out” of our dividend reinvestment plan will have its dividends automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock rather than receiving cash dividends. Stockholders who receive distributions in the form of shares of common stock will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if they received cash distributions.

The Company did not declare any distribution payments during the six months ended March 31, 2026. On February 6, 2025, the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $1.43 per share. This dividend was paid on February 19, 2025 to stockholders of record as of February 17, 2025. The dividends declared during the six months ended March 31, 2025 were derived from net investment income, determined on a tax basis.

Note 15. Segment Reporting

The Company has determined that it has asingle operating segment in accordance with Topic 280, Segment Reporting (“ASC 280”). The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) are the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer. While the Company derives income and capital appreciation by providing investments to companies across various industries, the Company and the CODM evaluate and monitor performance of the business on a consolidated basis. Further, each investment is evaluated and managed using similar processes and shared operations support functions such as deal origination, underwriting, and loan servicing as well as the administrative functions of human resources, legal, finance, and information technology.

The CODM uses consolidated net investment income and net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations when allocating resources and assessing the Company’s performance. Net investment income is comprised of consolidated total investment income (“segment revenues”) and consolidated total net operating expenses (“significant segment expenses”). The net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations is comprised of consolidated net investment income, consolidated net realized gains (losses) from investments, and consolidated net change in unrealized gains (losses) from investments. These performance metrics are considered the key segment measures of profit or loss reviewed by the CODM. As the Company’s operations comprise asingle reporting segment, the segment assets are reflected on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as Total Assets, investments held on the Consolidated Schedule of Investments, and the significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.
