Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1. Principal Business and Organization
FS KKR Capital Corp. (NYSE: FSK), or the Company, was incorporated under the general corporation laws of the State of Maryland on December 21, 2007 and formally commenced investment operations on January 2, 2009. The Company is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company that has elected to be regulated as a business development company, or BDC, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or the 1940 Act. In addition, the Company has elected to be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and intends to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company, or RIC, as defined under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code. The Company has various wholly-owned subsidiaries, including special-purpose financing subsidiaries and subsidiaries through which it holds interests in portfolio companies. The consolidated financial statements include both the Company’s accounts and the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries as of December 31, 2025. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Certain of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal and state income taxes.
The Company’s investment objectives are to generate current income and, to a lesser extent, long-term capital appreciation. The Company’s portfolio is comprised primarily of investments in senior secured loans and second lien secured loans of private middle-market U.S. companies and, to a lesser extent, subordinated loans and certain asset-based financing loans of private U.S. companies. In addition, a portion of the Company’s portfolio may be comprised of equity and equity-related securities, corporate bonds, structured products, other debt securities and derivatives, including total return swaps and credit default swaps.
The Company is externally managed by FS/KKR Advisor, LLC, or the Adviser, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement, dated as of June 16, 2021, or the Advisory Agreement.
Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying audited consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, or GAAP. The Company is considered an investment company under GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies under Financial Accounting Standards Board, or the FASB, Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies. The Company has evaluated the impact of subsequent events through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC. The Company has concluded that there are no subsequent events that would require adjustment or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Segment Reporting: In accordance with ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting, or ASC 280, the Company has determined that it has a single operating and reporting segment. As a result, the Company’s segment accounting policies are the same as described herein and the Company does not have any intra-segment sales and transfers of assets.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include funds from time to time deposited with financial institutions and short-term, liquid investments in a money market account. The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash balances are maintained with high credit quality financial institutions, which are members of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held with major financial institutions and generally may exceed federally insured limits.
Valuation of Portfolio Investments: The Company’s board of directors, or the Board or the Board of Directors, is responsible for overseeing the valuation of the Company’s portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s valuation policy. As permitted by Rule 2a-5 of the 1940 Act, the Board has designated the Adviser as its valuation designee with day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Adviser’s valuation policy.
Accounting Standards Codification Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosure, or ASC Topic 820, issued by the FASB clarifies the definition of fair value and requires companies to expand their disclosure about the use of fair value to measure assets and liabilities in interim and annual periods subsequent to initial recognition. ASC Topic 820 defines fair value as the price that would be received from the sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 also establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical securities; Level
2, which includes inputs such as quoted prices for similar securities in active markets and quoted prices for identical securities where there is little or no activity in the market; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs for which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Adviser determines the fair value of the Company’s investment portfolio each quarter. Securities that are publicly-traded with readily available market prices will be valued at the reported closing price on the valuation date. Securities that are not publicly-traded with readily available market prices will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser. In connection with that determination, the Adviser will prepare portfolio company valuations which are based on relevant inputs, including, but not limited to, indicative dealer quotes, values of like securities, recent portfolio company financial statements and forecasts, and valuations prepared by independent third-party pricing and valuation services.
With respect to investments for which market quotations are not readily available, the Company undertakes a multi-step valuation process each quarter, as described below:
the Company’s quarterly fair valuation process begins by the Adviser facilitating the delivery of updated quarterly financial and other information relating to each investment to an independent third-party pricing or valuation service;
the independent third-party pricing or valuation service then reviews and analyzes the information, along with relevant market and economic data, and determines proposed valuations for each portfolio company or investment according to the valuation methodologies in the Adviser’s valuation policy and communicates the information to the Adviser in the form of a valuation range for Level 2 and Level 3 assets;
the Adviser then reviews the preliminary valuation information for each portfolio company or investment and provides feedback about the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the valuation-related inputs considered by the independent third-party pricing or valuation service and any suggested revisions thereto prior to the independent third-party pricing or valuation service finalizing its valuation range;
the Adviser then provides the valuation committee with its valuation determinations and valuation-related information for each portfolio company or investment, along with any applicable supporting materials; and other information that is relevant to the fair valuation process as required by the Adviser’s board reporting obligations;
the valuation committee meets with the Adviser to receive the relevant quarterly reporting from the Adviser and to discuss any questions from the valuation committee in connection with the valuation committee’s role in overseeing the fair valuation process; and
following the completion of its fair value oversight activities, the valuation committee (with the assistance of the Adviser) provides the Board of Directors with a report regarding the quarterly valuation process.
In circumstances where the Adviser deems appropriate, the Adviser’s internal valuation team values certain investments. When performing the internal valuations, the Adviser utilizes similar valuation techniques as an independent third-party pricing service would use. Such valuations are approved by an internal valuation committee of the Adviser, as well as the valuation committee of the Board, as described above.
Determination of fair value involves subjective judgments and estimates. Accordingly, these notes to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements refer to the uncertainty with respect to the possible effect of such valuations and any change in such valuations on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In making its determination of fair value, the Adviser may use any independent third-party pricing or valuation services for which it has performed the appropriate level of due diligence. However, the Adviser is not required to determine fair value in accordance with the valuation provided by any single source, and may use any relevant data, including information sourced by the Adviser or provided by any independent third-party valuation or pricing service that the Adviser deems to be reliable in determining fair value under the circumstances. Below is a description of factors that the Adviser and any independent third-party valuation services may consider when determining the fair value of the Company’s investments.
The valuation methods utilized for each portfolio company may vary depending on industry and company-specific considerations. Typically, the first step is to make an assessment as to the enterprise value of the portfolio company’s business in order to establish whether the portfolio company’s enterprise value is greater than the amount of its debt as of the valuation date. This analysis helps to determine a risk profile for the applicable portfolio company and its related investments, and the appropriate valuation methodology to utilize as part of the security valuation analysis. The enterprise valuation may be determined using a market or income approach.
Valuation of fixed income investments, such as loans and debt securities, depends upon a number of factors, including prevailing interest rates for like securities, expected volatility in future interest rates, call features, put features and other relevant terms of the debt. For investments without readily available market prices, the Adviser may incorporate these factors into discounted cash flow models to arrive at fair value. Various methods may be used to determine the appropriate discount rate in a discounted cash flow model.
Other factors that may be considered include the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, the fair market value of the borrower in relation to the face amount of its outstanding debt and the quality of collateral securing the Company’s debt investments.
For convertible debt securities, fair value generally approximates the fair value of the debt plus the fair value of an option to purchase the underlying security (i.e., the security into which the debt may convert) at the conversion price. To value such an option, a standard option pricing model may be used.
The Company’s equity interests in portfolio companies for which there is no liquid public market are valued at fair value. Generally, the value of the Company’s equity interests in public companies for which market quotations are readily available is based upon the most recent closing public market price.
When the Company receives warrants or other equity securities at nominal or no additional cost in connection with an investment in a debt security, the cost basis in the investment will be allocated between the debt securities and any such warrants or other equity securities received at the time of origination. The Adviser subsequently values these warrants or other equity securities received at their fair value.
The Company values certain investments at their net asset value in accordance with practical expedient under ASC Topic 820.
Derivative Instruments: The Company’s derivative instruments include foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps. The Company has designated certain interest rate swaps as hedging instruments in a qualifying fair value hedge accounting relationship, and as a result, the change in fair value of the hedging instruments and hedged items are recorded in and recognized as components of interest expense in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The change in fair value of the interest rate swaps is offset by a change in the carrying value of the corresponding fixed rate debt.
For all other derivatives, the Company does not utilize hedge accounting and recognizes such derivative instruments as assets or liabilities at fair value in its consolidated financial statements. Changes in fair value of derivative contracts entered into by the Company, which have not been designated as hedging instruments, are recognized through the net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations. Realized gains and losses on the derivative instruments are included in net realized gains (losses) on derivative instruments in the consolidated statements of operations.
Revenue Recognition: Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. The Company records interest income on an accrual basis to the extent that it expects to collect such amounts. The Company records dividend income on the ex-dividend date. Distributions received from limited liability company, or LLC, and limited partnership, or LP, investments are evaluated to determine if the distribution should be recorded as dividend income or a return of capital. The Company holds investments in certain preferred securities that accumulate paid-in-kind interest income, or PIK income, to be paid upon the redemption, liquidation or maturity of the underlying investment. Such PIK income is accumulated onto the principal balance of the respective security. The Company does not accrue as a receivable interest or dividends on loans and securities if it has reason to doubt its ability to collect such income. The Company’s policy is to place investments on non-accrual status when there is reasonable doubt that interest income will be collected. The Company considers many factors relevant to an investment when placing it on or removing it from non-accrual status including, but not limited to, the delinquency status of the investment, economic and business conditions, the overall financial condition of the underlying investment, the value of the underlying collateral, bankruptcy status, if any, and any other facts or circumstances relevant to the investment. If there is reasonable doubt that the Company will receive any previously accrued interest, then the accrued interest will be written-off. When a PIK income-paying investment is placed on non-accrual status, the accrued, uncapitalized interest is generally reversed through PIK income. Payments received on non-accrual investments may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon the collectability of the remaining principal and interest. Non-accrual investments may be restored to accrual status when principal and interest become current and are likely to remain current based on the Company’s judgment.
Loan origination fees, original issue discount and market discount are capitalized and the Company amortizes such amounts as interest income over the respective term of the loan or security. Upon the prepayment of a loan or security, any unamortized loan origination fees and original issue discount are recorded as interest income. Structuring and other non-recurring upfront fees are recorded as fee income when earned. The Company records prepayment premiums on loans and securities as fee income when it receives such amounts.
For the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized $20, $31 and $20, respectively, in structuring fee revenue and included such revenue in the fee income line item on its consolidated statements of operations.
Net Realized Gains or Losses, Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation or Depreciation and Net Change in Unrealized Gains or Losses on Foreign Currency: Gains or losses on the sale of investments are calculated by using the specific identification method. 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, without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, but considering unamortized fees. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflects the change in portfolio investment values during the reporting period, including any reversal of previously recorded unrealized gains or losses when gains or losses are realized. Net change in unrealized gains or losses on foreign currency reflects the change in the value of receivables or accruals during the reporting period due to the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.
Capital Gains Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the incentive fee on capital gains is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Advisory Agreement). This fee equals 20.0% of the Company’s incentive fee capital gains, which will equal the realized capital gains of Corporate Capital Trust, Inc., or CCT, (as predecessor-by-merger to the Company), FS KKR Capital Corp. II, or FSKR, (as predecessor-by-merger to the Company) and the Company (without duplication) on a cumulative basis from inception, calculated as of the end of each calendar year, computed net of all realized capital losses and unrealized capital depreciation (without duplication) on a cumulative basis, less the aggregate amount of any capital gain incentive fees previously paid by CCT, FSKR and the Company. On a quarterly basis, the Company accrues for the capital gains incentive fee by calculating such fee as if it were due and payable as of the end of such period.
The Company includes unrealized gains in the calculation of the capital gains incentive fee expense and related accrued capital gains incentive fee. This accrual reflects the incentive fees that would be payable to the Adviser if the Company’s entire portfolio was liquidated at its fair value as of the balance sheet date even though the Adviser is not entitled to an incentive fee with respect to unrealized gains unless and until such gains are actually realized.
Subordinated Income Incentive Fee: Pursuant to the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser may also be entitled to receive a subordinated incentive fee on income. The subordinated incentive fee on income under the Advisory Agreement, which is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears, equals 17.5% of the Company’s “pre-incentive fee net investment income” for the immediately preceding quarter and is subject to a hurdle rate, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets, equal to 1.75% per quarter, or an annualized hurdle rate of 7.0%. As a result, the Adviser will not earn this incentive fee for any quarter until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter exceeds the hurdle rate of 1.75%. Once the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income in any quarter exceeds the hurdle rate, the Adviser will be entitled to a “catch-up” fee equal to the amount of the pre-incentive fee net investment income in excess of the hurdle rate, until the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income for such quarter equals 2.12%, or 8.48% annually, of net assets. Thereafter, the Adviser will be entitled to receive 17.5% of pre-incentive fee net investment income.
Income Taxes: The Company has elected to be treated, and intends to qualify annually, as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes under Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify for and maintain qualification as a RIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements, as well as distribute to its stockholders, for each tax year, at least 90% of its “investment company taxable income,” which is generally the Company’s net ordinary income plus the excess, if any, of realized net short-term capital gains over realized net long-term capital losses, determined without regard to any deduction for distributions paid. As a RIC, the Company will not have to pay corporate-level U.S. federal income taxes on any income that it distributes to its stockholders. The Company intends to make distributions in an amount sufficient to qualify for and maintain its RIC tax status each tax year and to not pay any U.S. federal income taxes on income so distributed. The Company is also subject to nondeductible federal excise taxes if it does not distribute an amount at least equal to the sum of 98% of net ordinary income of that calendar year, 98.2% of any capital gain net income for the one-year period ending October 31 of that calendar year, if any, and any recognized and undistributed income from prior years for which it paid no U.S. federal income taxes. The Company accrued $22, $23 and $22 in estimated excise taxes payable in respect of income received during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, respectively. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023, the Company paid $25, $27 and $20, respectively, in excise and other taxes.
The Company evaluates its tax positions to determine if the tax positions taken meet the minimum recognition threshold in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken for the purposes of measuring and recognizing tax benefits or liabilities in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Recognition of a tax benefit or liability with respect to an uncertain tax position is required only when the position is “more likely than not” to be sustained assuming examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax liabilities as income tax expense in its consolidated statements of operations. During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company did not incur any interest or penalties.
The Company has analyzed the tax positions taken on federal and state income tax returns for all open tax years, and has concluded that no provision for income tax for uncertain tax positions is required in the Company’s financial statements. The Company’s federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.
Distributions: Distributions to the Company’s stockholders are recorded as of the record date. Subject to the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors and applicable legal restrictions, the Company intends to declare and pay such distributions on a quarterly basis. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed or deemed distributed at least annually.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements: In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, or ASU 2023-09, which requires additional disaggregated disclosures on the entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation and additional details on income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024 and is to be adopted on a prospective basis with the option to apply retrospectively. The Company adopted ASU 2023-09 effective December 31, 2025 and concluded that the application of this guidance did not have any material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures, or ASU 2024-03, which requires disaggregated disclosure of certain costs and expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization and depletion, within relevant income statement captions. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim periods beginning with the first quarter ended March 31, 2028. Early adoption and retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this guidance, however, the Company does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

The Sales Agents will receive a commission from the Company of up to 1.5% of the gross sales price of any shares sold through such Sales Agent in the ATM Program under the Equity Distribution Agreements. The offering price per share of shares less commissions payable under the Equity Distribution Agreements and discounts, if any, will not be less than the net asset value per share of the Company’s common stock at the time of such sale, provided, that the Adviser may, but is not obligated to, from time to time, in its sole discretion, pay some or all of the commissions payable under the Equity Distribution Agreements or make additional supplemental payments to ensure that the sales price per share of any shares sold in the offering will not be less than the Company’s then-current net asset value per share. Any such payments made by the Adviser will not be subject to reimbursement by the Company.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company did not issue or sell shares of its common stock under the Equity Distribution Agreements.
Stock Repurchase Program

Compensation of the Investment Adviser
Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is entitled to a base management fee calculated at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average weekly value of the Company’s gross assets excluding cash and cash equivalents (gross assets equal the total assets of the Company as set forth on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets) and an incentive fee based on the Company’s performance. Effective June 15, 2019, in connection with stockholder approval of the modification of the asset coverage requirement applicable to senior securities from 200% to 150%, the Adviser reduced (by permanent waiver) the annual base management fee payable under the Advisory Agreement from 1.5% to 1.0% on all assets financed using leverage over 1.0x debt-to-equity. The base management fee is payable quarterly in arrears. All or any part of the base management fee not taken as to any quarter will be deferred without interest and may be taken in such other quarter as the Adviser determines. See Note 2 for a discussion of the capital gains and subordinated income incentive fees that the Adviser may be entitled to under the Advisory Agreement.
The Adviser has agreed to exclude from the calculation of the subordinated incentive fee on income and the incentive fee on capital gains any changes to the fair value recorded for the assets and liabilities of FSKR resulting solely from the new cost basis of the acquired FSKR investments determined in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805-50, Business Combinations—Related Issues as a result of the June 16, 2021 merger, or the 2021 Merger, of FSKR, a BDC that was also advised by the Adviser, with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving company.
On April 9, 2018, the Company entered into an administration agreement with the Adviser, or the Administration Agreement. Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Adviser oversees the Company’s day-to-day operations, including the provision of general ledger accounting, fund accounting, legal services, investor relations, certain government and regulatory affairs activities, and other administrative services. The Adviser also performs, or oversees the performance of, the Company’s corporate operations and required administrative services, which includes being responsible for the financial records that the Company is required to maintain and preparing reports for the Company’s stockholders and reports filed with the SEC. In addition, the Adviser assists the Company in calculating its net asset value, overseeing the preparation and filing of tax returns and the printing and dissemination of reports to the Company’s stockholders, and generally overseeing the payment of the Company’s expenses and the performance of administrative and professional services rendered to the Company by others.
Note 4. Related Party Transactions (continued)
Pursuant to the Administration Agreement, the Company reimburses the Adviser for expenses necessary to perform services related to its administration and operations, including the Adviser’s allocable portion of the compensation and related expenses of certain personnel of Franklin Square Holdings, L.P. (which does business as Future Standard, formerly FS Investments), or Future Standard, and KKR Credit Advisors (US), LLC, or KKR Credit, providing administrative services to the Company on behalf of the Adviser. The Company reimburses the Adviser no less than quarterly for all costs and expenses incurred by the Adviser in performing its obligations and providing personnel and facilities under the Administration Agreement. The Adviser allocates the cost of such services to the Company based on factors such as total assets, revenues, time allocations and/or other reasonable metrics. The Board of Directors reviews the methodology employed in determining how the expenses are allocated to the Company and the proposed allocation of administrative expenses among the Company and certain affiliates of the Adviser. The Board of Directors then assesses the reasonableness of such reimbursements for expenses allocated to it based on the breadth, depth and quality of such services as compared to the estimated cost to the Company of obtaining similar services from third-party service providers known to be available. In addition, the Board of Directors considers whether any single third-party service provider would be capable of providing all such services at comparable cost and quality. Finally, the Board of Directors compares the total amount paid to the Adviser for such services as a percentage of the Company’s net assets to the same ratio as reported by other comparable BDCs.
The following table describes the fees and expenses accrued under the Advisory Agreement and the Administration Agreement, as applicable, during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:
| Year Ended December 31, | |||||

(1)During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, $209, $219, and $229, respectively, in base management fees were paid to the Adviser. As of December 31, 2025, $50 in base management fees were payable to the Adviser.
(2)During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, $143, $173 and $167, respectively, of subordinated incentive fees on income were paid to the Adviser. As of December 31, 2025, $28 in subordinated incentive fees on income were payable to the Adviser.
(3)During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, $8, $9 and $11, respectively, of administrative services expenses related to the allocation of costs of administrative personnel for services rendered to the Company by the Adviser and the remainder related to other reimbursable expenses, including reimbursement of fees related to transactional expenses for prospective investments, such as fees and expenses associated with performing due diligence reviews of investments that do not close, often referred to as “broken deal” costs. Broken deal costs were $0.9 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The Company paid $12, $12 and $13, respectively, in administrative services expenses to the Adviser during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
The members of the senior management and investment teams of the Adviser serve or may serve as officers, directors or principals of entities that operate in the same or a related line of business as the Company does, or of investment vehicles managed by the same personnel. For example, the Adviser is the investment adviser to KKR FS Income Trust and KKR FS Income Trust Select, and the officers, managers and other personnel of the Adviser may serve in similar or other capacities for the investment advisers to future investment vehicles affiliated with Future Standard or KKR Credit. In serving in these multiple and other capacities, they may have obligations to other clients or investors in those entities, the fulfillment of which may not be in the Company’s best interests or in the best interest of the Company’s stockholders. The Company’s investment objectives may overlap with the investment objectives of such investment funds, accounts or other investment vehicles.
Affiliated Transactions
As a BDC, the Company is subject to certain regulatory restrictions in making its investments. For example, BDCs generally are not permitted to co-invest with certain affiliated entities in transactions originated by the BDC or its affiliates in the absence of an exemptive order from the SEC. However, BDCs are permitted to, and may, simultaneously co-invest in transactions where price is the only negotiated term. We may also be prohibited under the 1940 Act from conducting certain transactions with our affiliates without the prior approval of a majority of our directors who are not interested persons.

In an order dated June 4, 2013, or the FS Order, the SEC granted exemptive relief permitting the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions with certain affiliates of its former investment adviser and any future BDCs that are advised by its former investment adviser or its affiliated investment advisers. However, in connection with the investment advisory relationship with the Adviser, and in an effort to mitigate potential future conflicts of interest, the Board of Directors authorized and directed that the Company (i) withdraw from the FS Order, except with respect to any transaction in which the Company participated in reliance on the FS Order prior to April 9, 2018, and (ii) rely on an exemptive relief order, dated January 5, 2021, that permits the Company, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to co-invest in certain privately negotiated investment transactions, including investments originated and directly negotiated by the Adviser or KKR Credit, with certain affiliates of the Adviser.
On June 16, 2025, the Company applied for streamlined co-investment exemptive relief, which, if granted by the SEC, would supersede the existing co-investment exemptive relief, except to the extent the Company continues to rely on the FS Order solely with respect to any transaction in which the Company participated in reliance on the FS Order prior to April 9, 2018. The streamlined co-investment relief would similarly permit co-investments with certain affiliates, but would simplify certain of the conditions under the current order and provide more flexibility than the current order.
Affiliated Purchaser Program
As previously disclosed, certain affiliates of the owners of the Adviser committed $100 to a $350 investment vehicle that may invest from time to time in shares of the Company’s common stock. In August 2023 and March 2024, that investment vehicle entered into written trading plans with a third-party broker in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 and Rule 10b-18 promulgated under the Exchange Act to facilitate the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the terms and conditions of such plan. The Company is not a party to any transaction with the investment vehicle.
Affiliated Borrowing
The Company is permitted to borrow from an affiliate of the Adviser. Such borrowings do not accrue interest, are unsecured and are repaid within 1-2 days. As of December 31, 2025, no borrowings are outstanding under this arrangement.

On February 19, 2026, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly distribution of $0.48 per share consisting of a $0.45 base distribution and a $0.03 supplemental distribution, which will be paid on or about April 2, 2026 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on March 18, 2026. The timing and amount of any future distributions to stockholders are subject to applicable legal restrictions and the sole discretion of the Board of Directors.
Pursuant to the DRP, the Company will reinvest all cash dividends or distributions declared by the Board of Directors on behalf of stockholders who do not elect to receive their distributions in cash. As a result, if the Board of Directors declares a distribution, then stockholders who have not elected to “opt out” of the DRP will have their distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock.
With respect to each distribution pursuant to the DRP, the Company reserves the right to either issue new shares of common stock or purchase shares of common stock in the open market in connection with implementation of the DRP. Unless the Company, in its sole discretion, otherwise directs the plan administrator, (A) if the per share market price (as defined in the DRP) is equal to or greater than the estimated net asset value per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) of the Company’s common stock on the payment date for the distribution, then the Company will issue shares of common stock at the greater of (i) net asset value per share of common stock or (ii)95% of the market price; or (B) if the market price is less than the net asset value per share, then, in the sole discretion of the Company, (i) shares of common stock will be purchased in open market transactions for the accounts of participants to the extent practicable, or (ii) the Company will issue shares of common stock at net asset value per share. Pursuant to the terms of the DRP, the number of shares of common stock to be issued to a participant will be determined by dividing the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to a participant by the price per share at which the Company issues such shares; provided, however, that shares purchased in open market transactions by the plan administrator will be allocated to a participant based on the average purchase price, excluding any brokerage charges or other charges, of all shares of common stock purchased in the open market.
If a stockholder receives distributions in the form of common stock pursuant to the DRP, such stockholder generally will be subject to the same federal, state and local tax consequences as if it elected to receive distributions in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading at or below net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of cash that they would have received if they had elected to receive the distribution in cash. If the Company’s common stock is trading above net asset value, a stockholder receiving distributions in the form of additional common stock will be treated as receiving a distribution in the amount of the fair market value of the Company’s common stock. The stockholder’s basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of common stock received in a distribution will be equal to the total dollar amount of the distribution payable to the stockholder. Any stock received in a distribution will have a holding period for tax purposes commencing on the day following the day on which the shares of common stock are credited to the stockholder’s account.
The Company may fund its cash distributions to stockholders from any sources of funds legally available to it, including proceeds from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock, borrowings, net investment income from operations, capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, non-capital gains proceeds from the sale of assets, and dividends or other distributions paid to the Company on account of preferred and common equity investments in portfolio companies. The Company has not established limits on the amount of funds it may use from available sources to make distributions. During certain periods, the Company’s distributions may exceed its earnings. As a result, it is possible that a portion of the distributions the Company makes may represent a return of capital. A return of capital generally is a return of a stockholder’s investment rather than a return of earnings or gains derived from the Company’s investment activities. Each year a statement on Form 1099-DIV identifying the sources of the distributions (i.e., paid from ordinary income, paid from net capital gains on the sale of securities, and/or a return of capital, which is a nontaxable distribution) will be mailed to the Company’s stockholders, as appropriate. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to pay distributions at a specific rate or at all.
The following table reflects the sources of the cash distributions on a tax basis that the Company has paid on its common stock during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:
| Year Ended December 31, | ||||||

(1)During the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023,83.4%,85.2% and 86.6%, respectively, of the Company’s gross investment income was attributable to cash income earned,1.8%,2.5% and 2.9%, respectively, was attributable to non-cash accretion of discount and 14.8%,12.3% and 10.5%, respectively, was attributable to paid-in-kind, or PIK, interest.
The Company’s net investment income on a tax basis for the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023 was $652, $735 and $943, respectively. As of December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023, the Company had $464, $525 and $600, respectively, of undistributed net investment income and $3,107, $2,703 and $2,068, respectively, of accumulated capital losses on a tax basis.
The Company’s undistributed net investment income on a tax basis may be adjusted following the filing of the Company’s tax returns. The adjustment is in general due to tax-basis income received by the Company differing from GAAP-basis income on account of certain collateralized securities, interests in foreign entity structures, and interests in partnerships and the reclassification of realized gains and losses upon the sale of certain collateralized securities held in its investment portfolio during such period.
The difference between the Company’s GAAP-basis net investment income and its tax-basis net investment income is primarily due to the reclassification of unamortized original issue discount and prepayment fees recognized upon prepayment of loans from income for GAAP purposes to realized gains or deferred to future periods for tax purposes, accounting for income from foreign investments, the impact of consolidating certain subsidiaries for purposes of computing GAAP-basis net investment income but not for purposes of computing tax-basis net investment income, the reversal of non-deductible excise taxes and income recognized for tax purposes on certain transactions but not recognized for GAAP purposes.
The following table sets forth a reconciliation between GAAP-basis net investment income and tax-basis net investment income during the years ended December 31, 2025, 2024 and 2023:
| Year Ended December 31, | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | 2023 | |
| GAAP-basis net investment income | $654 | $813 | $892 |
| Income subject to tax not recorded for GAAP | 86 | (35) | 74 |
| GAAP accretion from merger not recognized for tax | (24) | (33) | (46) |
| Excise taxes | 22 | 23 | 22 |
| GAAP versus tax-basis impact of consolidation of certain subsidiaries | 1 | 6 | 6 |

| Other miscellaneous differences | (74) | (18) | (2) |
| Tax-basis net investment income | $652 | $735 | $943 |
The Company may make certain adjustments to the classification of stockholders’ equity as a result of permanent book-to-tax differences.
During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company increased accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and gain (loss) on foreign currency by $8, decreased capital in excess of par value by $85 and increased accumulated undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income by $77, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company increased accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and gain (loss) on foreign currency by $196 and decreased capital in excess of par value and accumulated undistributed (distributions in excess of) net investment income by $153 and $43, respectively.
The determination of the tax attributes of the Company’s distributions is made annually as of the end of the Company’s fiscal year based upon the Company’s taxable income for the full year and distributions paid for the full year. The actual tax characteristics of distributions to stockholders are reported to stockholders annually, as appropriate, on Form 1099-DIV.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the components of accumulated earnings on a tax basis were as follows:
| Year Ended December 31, | ||
|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 2024 | |
| Distributable ordinary income | $464 | $525 |
| Distributable realized gains (accumulated capital losses)(1) | (3,107) | (2,703) |
| Other temporary differences | 32 | 24 |
| Net unrealized appreciation (depreciation)(2) | (739) | (508) |
| Total | $(3,350) | $(2,662) |
(1)Net capital losses may be carried forward indefinitely, and their character is retained as short-term or long-term losses. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had capital loss carryforwards available to offset future realized capital gains of approximately $3,107. The capital loss carryforward includes amounts from prior reorganizations that may be limited in their use. Any unused balances resulting from such limitations may be carried forward into future years indefinitely.
(2)As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the gross unrealized appreciation was $1,138 and $1,254, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the gross unrealized depreciation was $1,877 and $1,762, respectively.
The aggregate cost of the Company’s investments for U.S. federal income tax purposes totaled $14,440 and $14,760 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on a tax basis was $(1,431) and $(1,270) as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The aggregate net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments on a tax basis excludes net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from merger accounting, foreign currency forward contracts and foreign currency transactions.
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had a gross deferred tax liability of $1 and net deferred tax liability of $0 resulting from unrealized appreciation on investments held by the Company’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries and a deferred tax asset of $124 resulting from a combination of unrealized depreciation on investments held by and net operating losses and other tax attributes of the Company’s wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2025, certain wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries anticipated that they would be unable to fully utilize their unrealized depreciation on investments, net operating losses and other tax attributes, therefore the deferred tax asset was offset by a valuation allowance of $123. During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded a provision for taxes related to wholly-owned taxable subsidiaries of $12 related to current taxes.

COPJV is a joint venture between the Company and South Carolina Retirement Systems Group Trust, or SCRS. COPJV’s second amended and restated limited liability company agreement, or the COPJV Agreement, requires the Company and SCRS to provide capital to COPJV of up to $2,800 in the aggregate where the Company and SCRS would provide 87.5% and 12.5%, respectively, of the committed capital.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts and Cross Currency Swaps
The Company may enter into foreign currency forward contracts and cross currency swaps from time to time to facilitate settlement of purchases and sales of investments denominated in foreign currencies and to economically hedge the impact that an adverse change in foreign exchange rates would have on the value of the Company’s investments denominated in foreign currencies. A foreign currency forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. These contracts are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the contract forward exchange rate and the forward market exchange rate on the last day of the period presented as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gains or losses are recognized when forward contracts are settled. Risks arise as a result of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. The Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with well-known counterparties.
Cross currency swaps are interest rate swaps in which interest cash flows are exchanged between two parties based on the notional amounts of two different currencies. These swaps are marked-to-market by recognizing the difference between the present value of cash flows of each leg of the swaps as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Realized gain or loss is recognized when periodic payments are received or paid and the swaps are terminated. The entire notional value of a cross currency swap is subject to the risk that the counterparty to the swap will default on its contractual delivery obligations. The Company attempts to limit counterparty risk by only dealing with well-known counterparties. The Company utilizes cross currency swaps from time to time in order to hedge a portion of its investments in foreign currency.
The average notional balance for foreign currency forward contracts during the year ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 was $193.0 and $166.9, respectively. See consolidated schedules of investments for the Company’s open foreign currency forward contracts.

Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Under existing accounting guidance, fair value is defined as the price that the Company would receive upon selling an investment or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction to a market participant in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. This accounting guidance emphasizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable market inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. The Company classifies the inputs used to measure these fair values into the following hierarchy as defined by current accounting guidance:
Level 1: Inputs that are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Inputs that are quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable for an asset or liability.
A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company’s investments were categorized as follows in the fair value hierarchy:
| Valuation Inputs | December 31, 2025 | December 31, 2024 |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1—Price quotations in active markets | $22 | $1 |
| Level 2—Significant other observable inputs | 14 | 91 |
| Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs | 11,005 | 12,035 |
| Investments measured at net asset value(1) | 1,968 | 1,363 |
| $13,009 | $13,490 |
(1)Certain investments that are measured at fair value using the net asset value per share (or its equivalent) practical expedient have not been categorized in the fair value hierarchy. The fair value amounts presented in this table are intended to permit reconciliation of the fair value hierarchy to the amounts presented in the consolidated balance sheets.
In addition, the Company had foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps, as described in Note 7, which were categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2025 and 2024.
The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the valuation of the Company’s portfolio investments at fair value as determined in good faith pursuant to the Adviser’s valuation policy. The Board of Directors has designated the Adviser with day-to-day responsibility for implementing the portfolio valuation process set forth in the Adviser’s valuation policy.
The Company’s investments consist primarily of debt investments that were acquired directly from the issuer. Debt investments, for which broker quotes are not available, are valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, the borrower’s ability to adequately service its debt, prevailing interest rates for like investments, expected cash flows, call features, anticipated repayments and other relevant terms of the investments. Except as described below, all of the Company’s equity/other investments are also valued by independent valuation firms, which determine the fair value of such investments by considering, among other factors, contractual rights ascribed to such investments, as well as various income scenarios and multiples of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, or EBITDA, cash flows, net income, revenues or, in limited instances, book value or liquidation value. An investment that is newly issued and purchased near the date of the financial statements is valued at cost if the Adviser determines that the cost of such investment is the best indication of its fair value. Such investments described above are typically classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy. Investments that are traded on an active public market are valued at their closing price as of the date of the financial statements and are classified as Level 1 within the fair value hierarchy. Except as described above, the Adviser typically values the Company’s other investments by using the midpoint of the prevailing bid and ask prices from dealers on the date of the relevant period end, which are provided by independent third-party pricing services and screened for validity by such services and are typically classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy.
Note 8. Fair Value of Financial Instruments (continued)
The Adviser periodically benchmarks the bid and ask prices it receives from the third-party pricing services and/or dealers and independent valuation firms, as applicable, against the actual prices at which the Company purchases and sells its investments. Based on the results of the benchmark analysis and the experience of the Company’s management in purchasing and selling these investments, the Adviser believes that these prices are reliable indicators of fair value. The Adviser reviewed and approved the valuation determinations made with respect to these investments in a manner consistent with the Adviser’s valuation policy.
The following is a reconciliation for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024 of investments for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining fair value:

The Company is not currently subject to any material legal proceedings and, to the Company’s knowledge, no material legal proceedings are threatened against the Company. From time to time, the Company may be a party to certain legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including proceedings relating to the enforcement of the Company’s rights under contracts with its portfolio companies. While the outcome of these legal proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the Company does not expect that any such proceedings will have a material effect upon its financial condition or results of operations.
