    Total investment income for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 was $57.9 million and $59.6 million, respectively. The decrease in total investment income was primarily driven by lower SOFR rates on our investments during the three months ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the three months ended September 30, 2024.

    Operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024 were $39.2 million and $38.0 million, respectively. The increase in operating expenses was driven by higher interest expense due to an increase in the Company's total debt outstanding during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, partially offset by lower advisory fees paid to CIM due to a decrease in investment income during the quarter ended December 31, 2024 as compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2024.

    ENDNOTES

    1)

    The discussion of the investment portfolio excludes short-term investments.

     

    2)

    Total debt outstanding excludes netting of debt issuance costs of $18.2 million and $14.9 million as of December 31, 2024 and September 30, 2024, respectively.

     

    3)

    The fixed versus floating composition has been calculated as a percentage of performing debt investments measured on a fair value basis, including income producing preferred stock investments and excludes investments, if any, on non-accrual status.

     

    4)

    Computed based on the (a) annual actual interest rate or yield earned plus amortization of fees and discounts on the performing debt and other income producing investments as of the reporting date, divided by (b) the total performing debt and other income producing investments (excluding investments on non-accrual status) at amortized cost. This calculation excludes exit fees that are receivable upon repayment of the investment.

     

    5)

    For a particular portfolio company, the Company calculates the level of contractual indebtedness net of cash ("net debt") owed by the portfolio company and compares that amount to measures of cash flow available to service the net debt. To calculate net debt, the Company includes debt that is both senior and pari passu to the tranche of debt owned by it but excludes debt that is legally and contractually subordinated in ranking to the debt owned by the Company. The Company believes this calculation method assists in describing the risk of its portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual rights of repayment of the tranche of debt owned by the Company relative to other senior and junior creditors of a portfolio company. The Company typically calculates cash flow available for debt service at a portfolio company by taking EBITDA for the trailing twelve-month period. Weighted average net debt to EBITDA is weighted based on the fair value of the Company's performing debt investments and excluding investments where net debt to EBITDA may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

     

    For a particular portfolio company, the Company also calculates the level of contractual interest expense owed by the portfolio company and compares that amount to EBITDA ("interest coverage ratio"). The Company believes this calculation method assists in describing the risk of its portfolio investments, as it takes into consideration contractual interest obligations of the portfolio company. Weighted average interest coverage is weighted based on the fair value of the Company's performing debt investments, and excludes investments where interest coverage may not be the appropriate measure of credit risk, such as cash collateralized loans and investments that are underwritten and covenanted based on recurring revenue.

     

    Portfolio company statistics, including EBITDA, are derived from the financial statements most recently provided to the Company for each portfolio company as of the reported end date. Statistics of the portfolio companies have not been independently verified by the Company and may reflect a normalized or adjusted amount.

     

    6)

    Median EBITDA is calculated based on the portfolio company's EBITDA as of the Company's initial investment.
