The Company's net investment income was $0.43 per share for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, compared to $0.44 per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2023. The Company's net asset value ("NAV") was $15.28 per share as of September 30, 2023, compared to $15.20 as of June 30, 2023.

    On November 7, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") declared a dividend of $0.38 per share payable on December 28, 2023 to shareholders of record as of December 12, 2023.

    Mr. Tanner Powell, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, commented, "We are pleased to report another strong quarter of results as well as some key strategic initiatives. We are excited to announce transformative merger agreements with two funds managed by Apollo which, if both mergers successfully close, will grow MFIC's net assets by over 40% and will enhance economics for our shareholders. We closed our first CLO transaction which priced favorably compared to other recent middle market CLO's, a reflection of the strong quality of our corporate lending assets." Mr. Powell continued, "We also reported a good quarter including strong net investment income, an increase in net asset value, and continued stable credit quality. It is clear from these results that we are reaping the rewards of our multi-year focus on investing in true first lien middle market loans sourced by MidCap Financial, a leading middle market lender managed by Apollo."

    Mr. Gregory W. Hunt, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, said, "We are pleased to announce MFIC's first CLO transaction which closed in early November which enhances our liquidity position with long-term financing and diversifies our sources of funding at an attractive all-in cost. We benefited from MidCap Financial and Apollo Global's experience in CLO management and structuring."

    As of September 30, 2023, the Company's outstanding debt obligations, excluding deferred financing cost and debt discount of $3.4 million, totaled $1.438 billion which was comprised of $350 million of Senior Unsecured Notes (the "2025 Notes") which will mature on March 3, 2025, $125 million of Unsecured Notes (the "2026 Notes") which will mature on July 16, 2026 and $962.9 million outstanding under the multi-currency revolving credit facility (the "Facility"). As of September 30, 2023, $60.6 million in standby letters of credit were issued through the Facility. The available remaining capacity under the Facility was $681.6 million as of September 30, 2023, which is subject to compliance with a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to different types of assets in the Company's portfolio.

    On November 2, 2023, the Company completed a $402.36 million term debt securitization (the "2023 Debt Securitization"), a form of secured financing incurred by MFIC Bethesda CLO 1 LLC (the "CLO Issuer"), an indirect wholly owned, consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The notes offered by the CLO Issuer in connection with the 2023 Debt Securitization consist of $232 million of AAA(sf) Class A-1 Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2035, which bear interest at the three-month SOFR plus 2.40%, $16 million of AAA(sf) Class A-2 Senior Secured Floating Rate Notes due 2035, which bear interest at three-month SOFR plus 2.90% and $154.36 million of Subordinated notes due 2135, which do not bear interest.

    The 2023 Debt Securitization is backed by a diversified portfolio of middle-market commercial loans, which the CLO Issuer purchased from the Company pursuant to a loan sale agreement entered into on the closing date of the 2023 Debt Securitization using the proceeds of the 2023 Debt Securitization. The Company retained all Class A-2 Notes and all Subordinated Notes and the proceeds from the CLO transaction were used to repay borrowings under the Company's Facility. The Company serves as collateral manager to the CLO Issuer, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. acted as initial purchaser and Apollo Global Securities, LLC acted as placement agent.
