Investor presentation summary

11 May, 2026

Platform overview and strategy

  • Focuses on private credit for mid-sized, cash-flowing companies, targeting those overlooked by other lenders.

  • Emphasizes capital preservation through conservative underwriting and low leverage.

  • Invests primarily in first lien, senior secured loans, with a preference for companies with strong market positions and management.

  • Avoids asset-intensive, cyclical, or volatile businesses and those with undifferentiated products.

  • Operates with a stable, experienced leadership team and a physical presence in key markets.

Market positioning and industry focus

  • Targets the U.S. core middle market, which includes nearly 200,000 companies and generates $10 trillion in annual revenue.

  • Focuses on five key industries: healthcare, government services, technology, consumer, and business services.

  • Maintains a diversified origination network, with 70% of deals since 2019 from repeat private equity sponsors.

  • Core middle market loans offer higher yields, lower leverage, and stronger covenants compared to upper middle market loans.

  • Achieves a yield premium with lower risk relative to broadly syndicated loans.

Portfolio and financial highlights

  • Manages two NYSE-listed BDCs with a combined $3.8 billion in investments as of March 2026.

  • PFLT portfolio: 162 direct investments, $2.6B market value, 44% median LTV, 4.6x median leverage, and 2.0x median interest coverage.

  • 97.8% of interest income paid in cash, with only 2.2% PIK income.

  • Only 0.8% of loans at cost are on non-accrual status.

  • 20% of portfolio allocated to government services, benefiting from geopolitical tailwinds.
