Under the Investment Company Act, the Company would be deemed an “affiliated person” of a portfolio company if the Company owns 5% or more of the portfolio company’s outstanding voting securities.

For each such loan, the Company has indicated the reference rate used and provided the spread and the interest rate in effect as of December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, the reference rates for our variable rate loans were the 30-day LIBOR at 1.75%, the 90-day LIBOR at 1.91% and the 180-day LIBOR at 1.91%.

(3) Loan includes interest rate floor feature, which is generally 1.00%.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)

As of September 30, 2020

(dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)

1. ORGANIZATION

TCG BDC, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our,” “TCG BDC” or the “Company”) is a Maryland corporation formed on February 8, 2012, and structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company. The Company is managed by its investment adviser, Carlyle Global Credit Investment Management L.L.C. (“CGCIM” or “Investment Adviser”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Carlyle Group Inc. (formerly, The Carlyle Group L.P.). The Company has elected to be regulated as a business development company (“BDC”) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Investment Company Act”). In addition, the Company has elected to be treated, and intends to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (together with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Code”).

The Company’s investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments. The Company's core investment strategy focuses on lending to U.S. middle market companies, which the Company defines as companies with approximately $25 million to $100 million of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), which the Company believes is a useful proxy for cash flow. The Company complements this core strategy with additive, diversifying assets including, but not limited to, specialty lending investments. The Company seeks to achieve its investment objective primarily through direct origination of secured debt instruments, including first lien senior secured loans (which may include stand-alone first lien loans, first lien/last out loans and “unitranche” loans) and second lien senior secured loans (collectively, “Middle Market Senior Loans”), with the balance of its assets invested in higher yielding investments (which may include unsecured debt, mezzanine debt and investments in equities). The Middle Market Senior Loans are generally made to private U.S. middle market companies that are, in many cases, controlled by private equity firms. Depending on market conditions, the Company expects that between 70% and 80% of the value of its assets will be invested in Middle Market Senior Loans. The Company expects that the composition of its portfolio will change over time given the Investment Adviser’s view on, among other things, the economic and credit environment (including with respect to interest rates) in which the Company is operating.

The Company invests primarily in loans to middle market companies whose debt, if rated, is rated below investment grade, and, if not rated, would likely be rated below investment grade if it were rated (that is, below BBB- or Baa3, which is often referred to as “junk”). Exposure to below investment grade instruments involves certain risks, including speculation with respect to the borrower’s capacity to pay interest and repay principal.

On May 2, 2013, the Company completed its initial closing of capital commitments (the “Initial Closing”) and subsequently commenced substantial investment operations. Effective March 15, 2017, the Company changed its name from “Carlyle GMS Finance, Inc.” to “TCG BDC, Inc.” On June 19, 2017, the Company closed its initial public offering (“IPO”), issuing 9,454,200 shares of its common stock (including shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option on July 5, 2017) at a public offering price of $18.50 per share. Net of underwriting costs, the Company received cash proceeds of $169,488. Shares of common stock of TCG BDC began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “CGBD” on June 14, 2017.

Until December 31, 2017, the Company was an “emerging growth company,” as that term is used in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012. As of June 30, 2017, the market value of the common stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700,000. Accordingly, the Company ceased to be an emerging growth company as of December 31, 2017.

The Company is externally managed by the Investment Adviser, an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended. Carlyle Global Credit Administration L.L.C. (the “Administrator”) provides the administrative services necessary for the Company to operate. Both the Investment Adviser and the Administrator are wholly owned subsidiaries of Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C. (“CIM”), a subsidiary of The Carlyle Group Inc. “Carlyle” refers to The Carlyle Group Inc. and its affiliates and its consolidated subsidiaries (other than portfolio companies of its affiliated funds), a global investment firm publicly traded on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “CG”. Refer to the sec.gov website for further information on Carlyle.

TCG BDC SPV LLC (the “SPV”) is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed on January 3, 2013. The SPV invests in first and second lien senior secured loans. The SPV is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and is

consolidated in these consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of its formation, January 3, 2013. Effective March 15, 2017, the SPV changed its name from “Carlyle GMS Finance SPV LLC” to “TCG BDC SPV LLC”.

On June 9, 2017, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 3, 2017 (the “Agreement”), by and between the Company and NF Investment Corp. (“NFIC”), NFIC merged with and into the Company (the “NFIC Acquisition”), with the Company as the surviving entity. The NFIC Acquisition was accounted for as an asset acquisition. NFIC SPV LLC (the “NFIC SPV” and, together with the SPV, the “SPVs”) is a Delaware limited liability company that was formed on June 18, 2013. Upon the consummation of the NFIC Acquisition, the NFIC SPV became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and is consolidated in these consolidated financial statements commencing from the closing date of the NFIC Acquisition, June 9, 2017.

On June 26, 2015, the Company completed a $400,000 term debt securitization (the “2015-1 Debt Securitization”). The notes offered in the 2015-1 Debt Securitization (the “2015-1 Notes”) were issued by Carlyle Direct Lending CLO 2015-1R LLC (formerly known as Carlyle GMS Finance MM CLO 2015-1 LLC) (the “2015-1 Issuer”), a wholly owned and consolidated subsidiary of the Company. On August 30, 2018, the 2015-1 Issuer refinanced the 2015-1 Debt Securitization (the “2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing”) by redeeming in full the 2015-1 Notes and issuing new notes (the “2015-1R Notes”). The 2015-1R Notes are secured by a diversified portfolio of the 2015-1 Issuer consisting primarily of first and second lien senior secured loans. Refer to Note 7, Notes Payable, for details. The 2015-1 Issuer is consolidated in these consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of its formation, May 8, 2015.

On February 29, 2016, the Company and Credit Partners USA LLC (“Credit Partners”) entered into an amended and restated limited liability company agreement, which was subsequently amended on June 24, 2016 (as amended, the “Limited Liability Company Agreement”) to co-manage Middle Market Credit Fund, LLC (“Credit Fund”). Credit Fund primarily invests in first lien loans of middle market companies. Credit Fund is managed by a six-member board of managers, on which the Company and Credit Partners each have equal representation. The Company and Credit Partners each have 50% economic ownership of Credit Fund and have commitments to fund, from time to time, capital of up to $400,000 each. Refer to Note 5, Middle Market Credit Fund, LLC, for details.

On May 5, 2020, the Company issued and sold 2,000,000 shares of cumulative convertible preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Preferred Stock"), to an affiliate of Carlyle in a private placement at a price of $25 per share. See Note 9, Net Assets, for further information about the Preferred Stock.

As a BDC, the Company is required to comply with certain regulatory requirements. As part of these requirements, the Company must not acquire any assets other than “qualifying assets” specified in the Investment Company Act unless, at the time the acquisition is made, at least 70% of its total assets are qualifying assets (with certain limited exceptions).

To qualify as a RIC, the Company must, among other things, meet certain source-of-income and asset diversification requirements and timely distribute to its stockholders generally at least 90% of its investment company taxable income, as defined by the Code, for each year. Pursuant to this election, the Company generally does not have to pay corporate level taxes on any income that it distributes to stockholders, provided that the Company satisfies those requirements.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”). The Company is an investment company for the purposes of accounting and financial reporting in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946, Financial Services—Investment Companies (“ASC 946”) . The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries, the SPVs and the 2015-1 Issuer. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. U.S. GAAP for an investment company requires investments to be recorded at fair value. The carrying value for all other assets and liabilities approximates their fair value.

The interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and pursuant to the requirements for reporting on Form 10-Q and Articles 6 and 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, certain disclosures accompanying the annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP are omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of consolidated financial statements for the interim periods presented have been included. These adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. This Form 10-Q

should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The results of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates 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. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and their resulting impact on base management and incentive fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments as presented in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations reflects the net change in the fair value of investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized. See Note 3 for further information about fair value measurements.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist of demand deposits and highly liquid investments (e.g., money market funds, U.S. treasury notes) with original maturities of three months or less. Cash equivalents are carried at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held with two large financial institutions and cash held in such financial institutions may, at times, exceed the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insured limit.

Revenue Recognition

Interest from Investments and Realized Gain/Loss on Investments

Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis and includes the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums. Discounts from and premiums to par value on debt investments purchased are accreted/amortized into interest income over the life of the respective security using the effective interest method. The amortized cost of debt investments represents the original cost, including origination fees and upfront fees received that are deemed to be an adjustment to yield, adjusted for the accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, if any. At time of exit, the realized gain or loss on an investment is the difference between the amortized cost at time of exit and the cash received at exit using the specific identification method.

The Company has loans in its portfolio that contain payment-in-kind (“PIK”) provisions. PIK represents interest that is accrued and recorded as interest income at the contractual rates, increases the loan principal on the respective capitalization dates, and is generally due at maturity. Such income is included in interest income in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the loans in the portfolio with PIK provisions was $202,223 and $164,902, respectively, which represents approximately 10.4% and 7.8% of total investments at fair value, respectively. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, the Company earned $1,810 and $3,655 in PIK income, respectively. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, the Company earned $2,397 and $5,687 in PIK income, respectively.

Dividend Income

Dividend income from the investment fund, Credit Fund, is recorded on the record date for the investment fund to the extent that such amounts are payable by the investment fund and are expected to be collected.

Other Income

Other income may include income such as consent, waiver, amendment, unused, underwriting, arranger and prepayment fees associated with the Company’s investment activities as well as any fees for managerial assistance services rendered by the Company to the portfolio companies. Such fees are recognized as income when earned or the services are rendered. The Company may receive fees for guaranteeing the outstanding debt of a portfolio company. Such fees are amortized into other income over the life of the guarantee. The unamortized amount, if any, is included in other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, the Company earned $2,110 and $8,001 in other income, respectively, primarily from amendment and underwriting fees. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, the Company earned $1,756 and $6,050 in other income, respectively, primarily from prepayment and underwriting fees.

Non-Accrual Income

Loans are generally placed on non-accrual status when principal or interest payments are past due 30 days or more or when there is reasonable doubt that principal or interest will be collected in full. Accrued and unpaid interest is generally reversed when a loan is placed on non-accrual status. Interest payments received on non-accrual loans may be recognized as income or applied to principal depending upon management’s judgment regarding collectability. Non-accrual loans are restored to accrual status when past due principal and interest are paid current and, in management’s judgment, are likely to remain current. Management may determine not to place a loan on non-accrual status if the loan has sufficient collateral value and is in the process of collection. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the fair value of the loans in the portfolio on non-accrual status was $67,371 and $52,429, respectively. The remaining first and second lien debt investments were performing and current on their interest payments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The Facilities, Senior Notes, and 2015-1R Notes – Related Costs, Expenses and Deferred Financing Costs

The Company has entered into a senior secured revolving credit facility (as amended, the "Credit Facility") and the SPV has entered into a senior secured credit facility (as amended, the "SPV Credit Facility", and together with the Credit Facility, the "Facilities"). Interest expense and unused commitment fees on the Facilities are recorded on an accrual basis. Unused commitment fees are included in credit facility fees in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

On December 30, 2019, the Company closed a private offering of $115.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.750% Senior Unsecured Notes due December 31, 2024 (the "Senior Notes"). The Facilities, the 2015-1R Notes and the Senior Notes are recorded at carrying value, which approximates fair value.

Deferred financing costs include capitalized expenses related to the closing or amendments of the Facilities. Amortization of deferred financing costs for each credit facility is computed on the straight-line basis over the respective term of each credit facility. The unamortized balance of such costs is included in deferred financing costs in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The amortization of such costs is included in credit facility fees in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Debt issuance costs include capitalized expenses including structuring and arrangement fees related to the offering of the 2015-1R Notes and Senior Notes. Amortization of debt issuance costs for the notes is computed on the effective yield method over the term of the notes. The unamortized balance of such costs is presented as a direct deduction to the carrying amount of the notes in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The amortization of such costs is included in interest expense in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Income Taxes

For federal income tax purposes, the Company has elected to be treated as a RIC under the Code, and intends to make the required distributions to its stockholders as specified therein. In order to qualify as a RIC, the Company must meet certain minimum distribution, source-of-income and asset diversification requirements. If such requirements are met, then the Company is generally required to pay income taxes only on the portion of its taxable income and gains it does not distribute.

The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require the Company to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), as defined by the Code, each year, although depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.

In addition, based on the excise distribution requirements, the Company is subject to a 4% nondeductible federal excise tax on undistributed income unless the Company distributes in a timely manner an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income for each calendar year, (2) 98.2% of capital gain net income (both long-term and short-term) for the one-year period ending October 31 in that calendar year and (3) any income realized, but not distributed, in the preceding year. For this purpose, however, any ordinary income or capital gain net income retained by the Company that is subject to corporate income tax is considered to have been distributed.

The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing its consolidated financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more likely than not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. The SPVs and the 2015-1 Issuer are disregarded entities for tax purposes and are consolidated with the tax return of the Company. All penalties and interest associated with income taxes, if any, are included in income tax expense. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $387 and $539 in excise tax expense, respectively. For the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, the Company incurred $49 and $169 in excise tax expense, respectively.

Dividends and Distributions to Common Stockholders

To the extent that the Company has taxable income available, the Company intends to make quarterly distributions to its common stockholders. Dividends and distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the record date. The amount to be distributed is determined by the Board of Directors each quarter and is generally based upon the taxable earnings estimated by management and available cash. Net realized capital gains, if any, are generally distributed at least annually, although the Company may decide to retain such capital gains for investment.

Prior to July 5, 2017, the Company had an “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan. Effective on July 5, 2017, the Company converted the “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan to an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of dividends and other distributions on behalf of the stockholders, other than those stockholders who have “opted out” of the plan. As a result of adopting the plan, if the Board of Directors authorizes, and the Company declares, a cash dividend or distribution, the stockholders who have not elected to “opt out” of the dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Company’s common stock, rather than receiving cash. Each registered stockholder may elect to have such stockholder’s dividends and distributions distributed in cash rather than participate in the plan. For any registered stockholder that does not so elect, distributions on such stockholder’s shares will be reinvested by State Street Bank and Trust Company, the Company’s plan administrator, in additional shares. The number of shares to be issued to the stockholder will be determined based on the total dollar amount of the cash distribution payable, net of applicable withholding taxes. The Company intends to use primarily newly issued shares to implement the plan so long as the market value per share is equal to or greater than the net asset value per share on the relevant valuation date. If the market value per share is less than the net asset value per share on the relevant valuation date, the plan administrator would implement the plan through the purchase of common stock on behalf of participants in the open market, unless the Company instructs the plan administrator otherwise.

Functional Translations

The functional currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. Investments are generally made in the local currency of the country in which the investments are domiciled and are translated into U.S. Dollars with foreign currency translation gains or losses recorded within net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations. Foreign currency translation gains and losses on non-investment assets and liabilities are separately reflected in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Earnings Per Common Share

The Company computes earnings per common share in accordance with ASC 260, Earnings Per Share ("ASC 260"). Basic earnings per common share is calculated by dividing the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations attributable to common stock by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per common share reflects the assumed conversion of all dilutive securities.

Recent Accounting Standards Updates

On June 16, 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU is intended to introduce new guidance for the accounting for credit losses on instruments within scope based on an estimate of current expected credit losses. The guidance was effective for fiscal years,

and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted the new requirement within Form 10-Q filings starting with the quarter that began January 1, 2020, which did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In May 2020, the SEC adopted rule amendments that will impact the requirement of investment companies, including BDCs, to disclose the financial statements of certain of their portfolio companies. Under Rules 3-09 and 4-08(g) of Regulation S-X, investment companies are required to include separate financial statements or summary financial information, respectively, in their periodic reports for any portfolio company that meets the definition of "significant subsidiary." The rule amendments adopted in May 2020 create a new definition of "significant subsidiary", as set forth in Rule 1-02(w)(2) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, which are applicable only to investment companies. This new definition modifies the investment test and income test, and eliminates the asset test, and is intended to more accurately capture those portfolio companies that are more likely to materially impact the financial condition of an investment company. The rule amendments are effective on January 1, 2021, but voluntary compliance is permitted in advance of the effective date. The Company adopted the rule amendments for the quarter ended September 30, 2020, which did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

3. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with the terms of FASB ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be exchanged to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transfer between market participants at the measurement date. The Company values securities/instruments traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments, such as its securities/instruments traded in active markets and its liquid securities/instruments that are not traded in active markets, from pricing services, brokers, or counterparties (i.e., “consensus pricing”). When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to U.S. GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. The Company may use the quote obtained or alternative pricing sources may be utilized including valuation techniques typically utilized for illiquid securities/instruments.

Securities/instruments that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Investment Adviser or the Company’s Board of Directors, does not represent fair value shall each be valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available. These valuation techniques may vary by investment and include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and/or discounted cash flow analyses. The process generally used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) the value of each portfolio company or investment is initially reviewed by the investment professionals responsible for such portfolio company or investment and, for non-traded investments, a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs is used to determine a preliminary value, which is also reviewed alongside consensus pricing, where available; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and reviewed by a valuation committee comprised of members of senior management; (iii) the Board of Directors engages a third-party valuation firm to provide positive assurance on portions of the Middle Market Senior Loans and equity investments portfolio each quarter (such that each non-traded investment other than Credit Fund is reviewed by a third-party valuation firm at least once on a rolling twelve month basis) including a review of management’s preliminary valuation and conclusion on fair value; (iv) the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) reviews the assessments of the Investment Adviser and the third-party valuation firm and provides the Board of Directors with any recommendations with respect to changes to the fair value of each investment in the portfolio; and (v) the Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Audit Committee and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser and, where applicable, the third-party valuation firm.

All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment are considered, including, but not limited to the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

• the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

• call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

• the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;

• the portfolio company’s public or private credit rating;

• the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

• prevailing interest rates and spreads for similar securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

• the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

• comparisons to comparable transactions and publicly traded securities.

Investment performance data utilized are the most recently available financial statements and compliance certificate received from the portfolio companies as of the measurement date which in many cases may reflect a lag in information.

Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Company’s investments may fluctuate from period to period. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been reported had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is reasonably possible that the difference could be material.

In addition, changes in the market environment and other events that may occur over the life of the investments may cause the realized gains or losses on investments to be different from the net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation currently reflected in the consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

U.S. GAAP establishes a hierarchical disclosure framework which ranks the level of observability of market price inputs used in measuring investments at fair value. The observability of inputs is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment and state of the marketplace, including the existence and transparency of transactions between market participants. Investments with readily available quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from quoted prices in active markets generally have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment applied in determining fair value.

Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed based on the observability of inputs used in determination of fair values, as follows:

• Level 1—inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date. Financial instruments in in this category generally include unrestricted securities, including equities and derivatives, listed in active markets. The Company does not adjust the quoted price for these investments, even in situations where the Company holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.

• Level 2—inputs to the valuation methodology are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date and are those other than quoted prices in active markets. Financial instruments in this category generally include less liquid and restricted securities listed in active markets, securities traded in other than active markets, government and agency securities, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on observable inputs.

• Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to overall fair value measurement. The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment or estimation. Financial instruments in this category generally include investments in privately-held entities, collateralized loan obligations, and certain over-the-counter derivatives where the fair value is based on unobservable inputs.

In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. The Investment Adviser’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.

Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the beginning of the quarter in which the transfers occur. For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no transfers between levels.

The following tables summarize the Company’s investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

The Company generally uses the following framework when determining the fair value of investments that are categorized as Level 3:

Investments in debt securities are initially evaluated to determine whether the enterprise value of the portfolio company is greater than the applicable debt. The enterprise value of the portfolio company is estimated using a market approach and an income approach. The market approach utilizes market value (EBITDA) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The Company carefully considers numerous factors when selecting the appropriate companies whose multiples are used to value its portfolio companies. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of organization, similarity to the business being valued, relevant risk factors, as well as size, profitability and growth expectations. The income approach typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company.

Investments in debt securities that do not have sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are valued based on an expected probability of default and discount recovery analysis.

Investments in debt securities with sufficient coverage through the enterprise value analysis are generally valued using a discounted cash flow analysis of the underlying security. Projected cash flows in the discounted cash flow typically represent the relevant security’s contractual interest, fees and principal payments plus the assumption of full principal recovery at the security’s expected maturity date. The discount rate to be used is determined using an average of two market-based methodologies. Investments in debt securities may also be valued using consensus pricing.

Investments in equities are generally valued using a market approach and/or an income approach. The market approach utilizes market value (EBITDA) multiples of publicly traded comparable companies and available precedent sales transactions of comparable companies. The income approach typically uses a discounted cash flow analysis of the portfolio company.

Investments in Credit Fund’s mezzanine loan are valued using collateral analysis with the expected recovery rate of principal and interest. Investments in Credit Fund’s subordinated loan and member’s interest are valued using discounted cash flow analysis with the expected discount rate, default rate and recovery rate of principal and interest.

The following tables summarize the quantitative information related to the significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 instruments which are carried at fair value as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments in first and second lien debt securities are discount rates, indicative quotes and comparable EBITDA multiples. Significant increases in discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant decreases in indicative quotes or comparable EBITDA multiples in isolation may result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments in equities are discount rates and comparable EBITDA multiples. Significant increases in discount rates in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. Significant decreases in comparable EBITDA multiples in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

The significant unobservable input used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investment in the mezzanine loan of Credit Fund is the recovery rate of principal and interest. A significant decrease in the recovery rate would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s investments in the subordinated loan and member’s interest of Credit Fund are the discount rate, default rate and recovery rate. Significant increases in the discount rate or default rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement. A significant decrease in the recovery rate in isolation would result in a significantly lower fair value measurement.

Financial instruments disclosed but not carried at fair value

The carrying value of other financial assets and liabilities approximates their fair value based on the short term nature of these items.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Investment Advisory Agreement

On April 3, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the directors who are not “interested persons” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act (the “Independent Directors”), approved an investment advisory agreement (the “Original Investment Advisory Agreement”) between the Company and the Investment Adviser in

accordance with, and on the basis of an evaluation satisfactory to such directors as required by, Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act.

The Original Investment Advisory Agreement was amended on September 15, 2017 (as amended, the “First Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement”) after the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, at an in-person meeting of the Board of Directors held on May 30, 2017 and the approval of the Company’s stockholders at a special meeting of stockholders held on September 15, 2017. On August 6, 2018, the First Amended and Restated Investment Advisory Agreement was further amended (as amended, the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) after the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, at an in-person meeting of the Board of Directors held on August 6, 2018. On May 29, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, approved the continuance of the Company’s Investment Advisory Agreement with the Adviser for an additional one year term.

Effective September 15, 2017, the base management fee has been calculated and payable quarterly in arrears at an annual rate of 1.50% of the average value of the gross assets at the end of the two most recently completed fiscal quarters; provided, however, effective July 1, 2018, the base management fee has been calculated at an annual rate of 1.00% of the average value of the gross assets as of the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters that exceeds the product of (A) 200% and (B) the average value of the Company’s net asset value at the end of the two most recently completed calendar quarters. The base management fee will be appropriately adjusted for any share issuances or repurchases during such fiscal quarter and the base management fees for any partial month or quarter will be pro-rated. The Company’s gross assets exclude any cash and cash equivalents and include assets acquired through the incurrence of debt from the use of leverage.

The incentive fee has two parts. The first part is calculated and payable quarterly in arrears based on the pre-incentive fee net investment income for the immediately preceding calendar quarter. The second part is determined and payable in arrears based on capital gains as of the end of each calendar year.

Pre-incentive fee net investment income means interest income, dividend income and any other income (including any other fees (other than fees for providing managerial assistance), such as commitment, origination, structuring, diligence and consulting fees or other fees that the Company receives from portfolio companies) accrued during the calendar quarter, minus the operating expenses accrued for the quarter (including the base management fee, expenses payable under the administration agreement, and any interest expense or fees on any credit facilities or outstanding debt and dividends paid on any issued and outstanding preferred stock, but excluding the incentive fee). Pre-incentive fee net investment income includes, in the case of investments with a deferred interest feature, accrued income that the Company has not yet received in cash. Pre-incentive fee net investment income does not include any realized capital gains, realized capital losses or unrealized capital appreciation or depreciation.

Effective September 15, 2017, pre-incentive fee net investment income, expressed as a rate of return on the value of the Company’s net assets at the end of the immediately preceding calendar quarter, has been compared to a “hurdle rate” of 1.50% per quarter (6% annualized) or a “catch-up rate” of 1.82% per quarter (7.28% annualized), as applicable.

Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Company pays its Investment Adviser an incentive fee with respect to its pre-incentive fee net investment income in each calendar quarter as follows:

• no incentive fee based on pre-incentive fee net investment income in any calendar quarter in which its pre-incentive fee net investment income does not exceed the hurdle rate of 1.50%;

• 100% of pre-incentive fee net investment income with respect to that portion of such pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.82% in any calendar quarter (7.28% annualized). The Company refers to this portion of the pre-incentive fee net investment income (which exceeds the hurdle rate but is less than 1.82%) as the “catch-up.” The “catch-up” is meant to provide the Investment Adviser with approximately 17.5% of the Company’s pre-incentive fee net investment income as if a hurdle rate did not apply if this net investment income exceeds 1.82% in any calendar quarter; and

• 17.5% of the amount of pre-incentive fee net investment income, if any, that exceeds 1.82% in any calendar quarter (7.28% annualized) will be payable to the Investment Adviser. This reflects that once the hurdle rate is reached and the catch-up is achieved, 17.5% of all pre-incentive fee net investment income thereafter is allocated to the Investment Adviser.

The second part of the incentive fee is determined and payable in arrears as of the end of each calendar year (or upon termination of the Investment Advisory Agreement, as of the termination date), and equals 17.5% of realized capital gains, if

any, on a cumulative basis from inception through the date of determination, computed net of all realized capital losses on a cumulative basis and unrealized capital depreciation, less the aggregate amount of any previously paid capital gain incentive fees, provided that, the incentive fee determined at the end of the first calendar year of operations may be calculated for a period of shorter than twelve calendar months to take into account any realized capital gains computed net of all realized capital losses on a cumulative basis and unrealized capital depreciation.

Below is a summary of the base management fees and incentive fees incurred during the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended

Total base management fees and incentive fees	$	11,456	$	13,726	$	35,660	$	41,103

Accrued capital gains incentive fees are based upon the cumulative net realized and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) from inception. Accordingly, the accrual for any capital gains incentive fee under U.S. GAAP in a given period may result in an additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reduction of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. If such cumulative amount is negative, then there is no accrual.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, $11,473 and $13,236, respectively, was included in base management and incentive fees payable in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

5. MIDDLE MARKET CREDIT FUND, LLC

Overview

On February 29, 2016, the Company and Credit Partners entered into the Limited Liability Company Agreement to co-manage Credit Fund, a Delaware limited liability company that is not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Credit Fund commenced operations in May 2016 and primarily invests in first lien loans of middle market companies. Credit Fund is managed by a six-member board of managers, on which the Company and Credit Partners each have equal representation. Establishing a quorum for Credit Fund’s board of managers requires at least four members to be present at a meeting, including at least two of the Company’s representatives and two of Credit Partners’ representatives. The Company and Credit Partners each have 50% economic ownership of Credit Fund and have commitments to fund, from time to time, capital of up to $400,000 each. Funding of such commitments generally requires the approval of the board of Credit Fund, including the board members appointed by the Company. By virtue of its membership interest, the Company and Credit Partners each indirectly bear an allocable share of all expenses and other obligations of Credit Fund.

Together with Credit Partners, the Company co-invests through Credit Fund. Investment opportunities for Credit Fund are sourced primarily by the Company and its affiliates. Portfolio and investment decisions with respect to Credit Fund must be unanimously approved by a quorum of Credit Fund’s investment committee consisting of an equal number of representatives of the Company and Credit Partners. Therefore, although the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities of Credit Fund, the Company does not believe that it has control over Credit Fund (other than for purposes of the Investment Company Act). Middle Market Credit Fund SPV, LLC (the “Credit Fund Sub”), MMCF CLO 2017-1 LLC (the “2017-1 Issuer”), MMCF CLO 2019-2, LLC (the "2019-2 Issuer", formerly known as MMCF Warehouse, LLC (the "Credit Fund Warehouse")) and MMCF Warehouse II, LLC (the "Credit Fund Warehouse II"), each a Delaware limited liability company, were formed on April 5, 2016, October 6, 2017, November 26, 2018 and August 16, 2019, respectively. Credit Fund Sub, the 2017-1 Issuer, the 2019-2 Issuer and Credit Fund Warehouse II are wholly owned subsidiaries of Credit Fund and are consolidated in Credit Fund’s consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of their respective formations. Credit Fund Sub, the 2017-1 Issuer, the 2019-2 Issuer and Credit Fund Warehouse II primarily invest in first lien loans of middle market companies. Credit Fund and its wholly owned subsidiaries follow the same Internal Risk Rating System as the Company. Refer to "Debt" below for discussions regarding the credit facilities entered into and then notes issued by such wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Credit Fund, the Company and Credit Partners entered into an administration agreement with Carlyle Global Credit Administration L.L.C., the administrative agent of Credit Fund (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), pursuant to which the Administrative Agent is delegated certain administrative and non-discretionary functions, is authorized to enter into sub-administration agreements at the expense of Credit Fund with the approval of the board of managers of Credit Fund, and is reimbursed by Credit Fund for its costs and expenses and Credit Fund’s allocable portion of overhead incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its obligations thereunder.

(2) Weighted average yields include the effect of accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums and are based on interest rates as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at fair value is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of original issue discount ("OID") and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at fair value included in such securities. Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at amortized cost is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of OID and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at amortized cost included in such securities. Actual yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented above.

(3) Floating rate debt investments are generally subject to interest rate floors.

The SPV Credit Facility provides for secured borrowings during the applicable revolving period up to an amount equal to the lesser of $275,000 (the borrowing base as calculated pursuant to the terms of the SPV Credit Facility) and the amount of net cash proceeds and unpledged capital commitments the Company has received, with an accordion feature that can, subject to certain conditions, increase the aggregate maximum credit commitment up to an amount not to exceed $750,000, subject to restrictions imposed on borrowings under the Investment Company Act and certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the SPV Credit Facility, including adequate collateral to support such borrowings. The SPV Credit Facility has a revolving period through May 21, 2021 and a maturity date of May 23, 2023. Borrowings under the SPV Credit Facility bear interest initially at the applicable commercial paper rate (if the lender is a conduit lender) or LIBOR (or, if applicable, a rate based on the prime rate or federal funds rate) plus 2.00% per year through May 21, 2021, with pre-determined future interest rate increases of 0.875%-1.75% following the end of the revolving period. The SPV is also required to pay an undrawn commitment fee of between 0.50% and 0.75% per year depending on the drawings under the SPV Credit Facility. Payments under the SPV Credit Facility are made quarterly. The lenders have a first lien security interest on substantially all of the assets of the SPV.

As part of the SPV Credit Facility, the SPV is subject to limitations as to how borrowed funds may be used and the types of loans that are eligible to be acquired by the SPV including, but not limited to, restrictions on sector and geographic concentrations, loan size, payment frequency, tenor and minimum investment ratings (or estimated ratings). In addition, borrowed funds are intended to be used primarily to purchase first lien loan assets, and the SPV is limited in its ability to purchase certain other assets (including, but not limited to, second lien loans, covenant-lite loans, revolving and delayed draw loans and discount loans) and other assets are not permitted to be purchased (including, but not limited to paid-in-kind loans). The SPV Credit Facility has certain requirements relating to asset coverage, interest coverage, collateral quality and portfolio performance, including limitations on delinquencies and charge offs, certain violations of which could result in the immediate acceleration of the amounts due under the SPV Credit Facility. The SPV Credit Facility is also subject to a borrowing base that applies different advance rates to assets held by the SPV based generally on the fair market value of such assets. Under certain circumstances as set forth in the SPV Credit Facility, the Company could be obliged to repurchase loans from the SPV.

The Company closed on the Credit Facility on March 21, 2014, which was subsequently amended on January 8, 2015, May 25, 2016, March 22, 2017, September 25, 2018 and June 14, 2019. The maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility is $688,000, subject to availability under the Credit Facility, which is based on certain advance rates multiplied by the value of the Company’s portfolio investments (subject to certain concentration limitations) net of certain other indebtedness that the Company may incur in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. Proceeds of the Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. Maximum capacity under the Credit Facility may be increased to $900,000 through the exercise by the Company of an uncommitted accordion feature through which existing and new lenders may, at their option, agree to provide additional financing. The Credit Facility includes a $50,000 limit for swingline loans and a $20,000 limit for letters of credit. The Company may borrow amounts in U.S. dollars or certain other permitted currencies. Amounts drawn under the Credit Facility, including amounts drawn in respect of letters of credit, bear interest at either LIBOR plus an applicable spread of 2.25%, or an “alternative base rate” (which is the highest of a prime rate, the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, or one month LIBOR plus 1.00%) plus an applicable spread of 1.25%. The Company may elect either the LIBOR or the “alternative base rate” at the time of drawdown, and loans may be converted from one rate to another at any time, subject to certain conditions. The Company also pays a fee of 0.375% on undrawn amounts under the Credit Facility and, in respect of each undrawn letter of credit, a fee and interest rate equal to the then-applicable margin under the Credit Facility while the letter of credit is outstanding. On October 28, 2020, the Credit Facility was amended to extend the availability period to October 28, 2024 and the maturity date to October 28, 2025. During the period from October 29, 2024 to October 28, 2025, the Company will be obligated to make mandatory prepayments under the Credit Facility out of the proceeds of certain asset sales, other recovery events and equity and debt issuances.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Facility is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the Company. The Credit Facility includes customary covenants, including certain financial covenants related to asset coverage, shareholders’ equity and liquidity, certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance covenants, as well as usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.

2015-1R Notes

On June 26, 2015, the Company completed the 2015-1 Debt Securitization. The 2015-1 Notes were issued by the 2015-1 Issuer, a wholly-owned and consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The 2015-1 Debt Securitization was executed through a private placement of the 2015-1 Notes, consisting of:

• $160,000 of Aaa/AAA Class A-1A Notes;

• $40,000 of Aaa/AAA Class A-1B Notes;

• $27,000 of Aaa/AAA Class A-1C Notes; and

• $46,000 of Aa2 Class A-2 Notes.

The 2015-1 Notes were issued at par and were scheduled to mature on July 15, 2027. The Company received 100% of the preferred interests issued by the 2015-1 Issuer (the “2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests”) on the closing date of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization in exchange for the Company’s contribution to the 2015-1 Issuer of the initial closing date loan portfolio. The 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests do not bear interest and had a nominal value of $125,900 at closing. In connection with the contribution, the Company made customary representations, warranties and covenants to the 2015-1 Issuer in the purchase agreement. The Class A-1A, Class A-1B and Class A-1C and Class A-2 Notes are included in these consolidated financial statements. The 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests were eliminated in consolidation.

On the closing date of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization, the 2015-1 Issuer effected a one-time distribution to the Company of a substantial portion of the proceeds of the private placement of the 2015-1 Notes, net of expenses, which distribution was used to repay a portion of certain amounts outstanding under the SPV Credit Facility and the Credit Facility. As part of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization, certain first and second lien senior secured loans were distributed by the SPV to the Company pursuant to a distribution and contribution agreement.

On August 30, 2018, the Company and the 2015-1 Issuer closed the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing. On the closing date of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, the 2015-1 Issuer, among other things:

(a) refinanced the issued Class A-1A Notes by redeeming in full the Class A-1A Notes and issuing new AAA Class A-1-1-R Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $234,800 which bear interest at the three-month LIBOR plus 1.55%;

(b) refinanced the issued Class A-1B Notes by redeeming in full the Class A-1B Notes and issuing new AAA Class A-1-2-R Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $50,000 which bear interest at the three-month LIBOR plus 1.48% for the first 24 months and the three-month LIBOR plus 1.78% thereafter;

(c) refinanced the issued Class A-1C Notes by redeeming in full the Class A-1C Notes and issuing new AAA Class A-1-3-R Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $25,000 which bear interest at 4.56%;

(d) refinanced the issued Class A-2 Notes by redeeming in full the Class A-2 Notes and issuing new Class A-2-R Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $66,000 which bear interest at the three-month LIBOR plus 2.20%;

(e) issued new single-A Class B Notes and BBB- Class C Notes in aggregate principal amounts of $46,400 and $27,000, respectively, which bear interest at the three-month LIBOR plus 3.15% and the three-month LIBOR plus 4.00%, respectively;

(f) reduced the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests by approximately $21,375 from a nominal value of $125,900 to approximately $104,525 at close; and

(g) extended the reinvestment period end date and maturity date applicable to the 2015-1 Issuer to October 15, 2023 and October 15, 2031, respectively.

Following the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, the Company retained the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests. The 2015-1R Notes in the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing were issued by the 2015-1 Issuer and are secured by a diversified portfolio of the 2015-1 Issuer consisting primarily of first and second lien senior secured loans.

On the closing date of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, the 2015-1 Issuer effected a one-time distribution to the Company of a substantial portion of the proceeds of the private placement of the 2015-1R Notes, net of expenses, which distribution was used to repay a portion of certain amounts outstanding under the SPV Credit Facility and the Credit Facility. As part of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, certain first and second lien senior secured loans were distributed by the SPV to the Company pursuant to a distribution and contribution agreement. The Company contributed the loans that comprised the initial closing date loan portfolio (including the loans distributed to the Company from the SPV) to the 2015-1 Issuer pursuant to a contribution agreement. Future loan transfers from the Company to the 2015-1 Issuer will be made pursuant to a sale agreement and are subject to the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors. Assets of the 2015-1 Issuer are not available to the creditors of the SPV or the Company. In connection with the issuance and sale of the 2015-1R Notes, the Company made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the purchase agreement.

During the reinvestment period, pursuant to the indenture governing the 2015-1R Notes, all principal collections received on the underlying collateral may be used by the 2015-1 Issuer to purchase new collateral under the direction of Investment Adviser in its capacity as collateral manager of the 2015-1 Issuer and in accordance with the Company’s investment strategy.

The Investment Adviser serves as collateral manager to the 2015-1 Issuer under a collateral management agreement (the “Collateral Management Agreement”). Pursuant to the Collateral Management Agreement, the 2015-1 Issuer pays management fees (comprised of base management fees, subordinated management fees and incentive management fees) to the Investment Adviser for rendering collateral management services. As per the Collateral Management Agreement, for the period the Company retains all of the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests, the Investment Adviser does not earn management fees for providing such collateral management services. The Company currently retains all of the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests, thus the Investment Adviser did not earn any management fees from the 2015-1 Issuer for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Any such waived fees may not be recaptured by the Investment Adviser.

Pursuant to an undertaking by the Company in connection with the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, the Company has agreed to hold on an ongoing basis the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests with an aggregate dollar purchase price at least equal to 5% of the aggregate outstanding amount of all collateral obligations by the 2015-1 Issuer for so long as any securities of the 2015-1 Issuer remain outstanding. As of September 30, 2020, the Company was in compliance with its undertaking.

The 2015-1 Issuer pays ongoing administrative expenses to the trustee, independent accountants, legal counsel, rating agencies and independent managers in connection with developing and maintaining reports, and providing required services in connection with the administration of the 2015-1 Issuer.

As of September 30, 2020, the 2015-1R Notes were secured by 59 first lien and second lien senior secured loans with a total fair value of approximately $515,169 and cash of $5,231. The pool of loans in the securitization must meet certain requirements, including asset mix and concentration, term, agency rating, collateral coverage, minimum coupon, minimum spread and sector diversity requirements in the indenture governing the 2015-1R Notes.

For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the effective annualized weighted average interest rates, which include amortization of debt issuance costs on the 2015-1R Notes, were 2.56% and 4.59%, respectively, based on

floating LIBOR rates. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 the weighted average interest rates were 2.38% and 4.75% respectively, based on floating LIBOR rates.

For the for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the components of interest expense on the 2015-1R Notes were as follows:


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended

Earnings Per Share

The Company calculates earnings per share in accordance with ASC 260, "Earnings per Share." Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations, less preferred dividends, by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding using the if-converted method for the convertible Preferred Stock. Diluted earnings per share excludes all dilutive potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive. Potential common shares for the nine months ended

September 30, 2020 would be antidilutive due to the net loss in the period. Basic and diluted earnings per common share were as follows:


	For the three month period ended September 30, 2020				For the nine month period ended September 30, 2020
	Basic		Diluted		Basic		Diluted
Net increase (decrease) in net assets resulting from operations attributable to Common Stockholders	$	32,752	$	33,608	$	(32,744)	$	(32,744)

(1) Net investment income (loss) per common share was calculated as net investment income (loss) less the preferred dividend for the period divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period.

(2) Dividends declared per common share was calculated as the sum of dividends on common stock declared during the period divided by the number of common shares outstanding at each respective quarter-end date (refer to Note 9, Net Assets).

(3) Total return based on net asset value (not annualized) is based on the change in net asset value per common share during the period plus the declared dividends on common stock, assuming reinvestment of dividends in accordance with the dividend reinvestment plan, divided by the beginning net asset value for the period.

(4) Total return based on market value (not annualized) is calculated as the change in market value per common share during the period plus the declared dividends on common stock, assuming reinvestment of dividends in accordance with the dividend reinvestment plan, divided by the beginning market price for the period.

(5) These ratios to average net assets attributable to Common Stockholders have not been annualized.

11. LITIGATION

The Company may become party to certain lawsuits in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of current matters, if any, will materially impact the Company or its consolidated financial statements. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company was not subject to any material legal proceedings, nor, to the Company’s knowledge, is any material legal proceeding threatened against the Company.

In addition, portfolio investments of the Company could be the subject of litigation or regulatory investigations in the ordinary course of business. The Company does not believe that the outcome of any current contingent liabilities of its portfolio investments, if any, will materially affect the Company or these consolidated financial statements.

12. TAX

The Company has not recorded a liability for any uncertain tax positions pursuant to the provisions of ASC 740, Income Taxes, as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by federal and certain state, local and foreign tax regulators. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had filed tax returns and therefore is subject to examination.

The Company’s taxable income for each period is an estimate and will not be finally determined until the Company files its tax return for each year. Therefore, the final taxable income, and the taxable income earned in each period and carried forward for distribution in the following period, may be different than this estimate. The estimated tax character of dividends declared on preferred stock and common stock for nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:


	For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2020		September 30, 2019
Ordinary income	$	63,912	$	71,590
Tax return of capital	$	—	$	—

13. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued. There have been no subsequent events that require recognition or disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were issued, except as disclosed below and elsewhere in the consolidated financial statements.

On November 2, 2020, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly common dividend of $0.32 plus a special dividend of $0.04, which are payable on January 15, 2021 to common stockholders of record on December 31, 2020.

On November 3, 2020 (the "Closing Date"), pursuant to a contribution agreement, dated as of the Closing Date, by and between the Company and Middle Market Credit Fund II, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("MMCF II"), the Company contributed certain senior secured debt investments with an aggregate principal balance of approximately $250 million to MMCF II in exchange for approximately 84% of MMCF II's membership interests and gross cash proceeds of approximately $170 million.

On the Closing Date, the Company and an unaffiliated private credit investment fund entered into a limited liability company agreement to co-manage MMCF II. The Company and the unaffiliated fund have approximately 84% and 16% economic ownership of MMCF II, respectively. MMCF II will be managed by a four-member board of managers, on which the Company and the unaffiliated fund will have equal representation. MMCF II is not consolidated in the Company's financial statements. MMCF II is expected to invest primarily in the senior secured loans of middle market companies. MMCF II's initial portfolio was funded on the Closing Date with existing senior secured debt investments contributed by the Company.

OVERVIEW

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q “Financial Statements.” This discussion contains forward-looking statements and involves numerous risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to those described in “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item 1A of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and Part II, Item 1A of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated by such forward-looking statements due to factors discussed under “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statements Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” appearing elsewhere in this Form 10-Q.

We are a Maryland corporation formed on February 8, 2012, and structured as an externally managed, non-diversified closed-end investment company. We have elected to be regulated as a BDC under the Investment Company Act. We have elected to be treated, and intend to continue to comply with the requirements to qualify annually, as a RIC under Subchapter M of the Code.

Our investment objective is to generate current income and capital appreciation primarily through debt investments in U.S. middle market companies. Our core investment strategy focuses on lending to U.S. middle market companies, which we define as companies with approximately $25 million to $100 million of EBITDA, which we believe is a useful proxy for cash flow. We complement this core strategy with additive, diversifying assets including, but not limited to, specialty lending investments. We seek to achieve our investment objective primarily through direct origination of Middle Market Senior Loans, with the balance of our assets invested in higher yielding investments (which may include unsecured debt, mezzanine debt and investments in equities). We generally make Middle Market Senior Loans to private U.S. middle market companies that are, in many cases, controlled by private equity firms. Depending on market conditions, we expect that between 70% and 80% of the value of our assets will be invested in Middle Market Senior Loans. We expect that the composition of our portfolio will change over time given our Investment Adviser’s view on, among other things, the economic and credit environment (including with respect to interest rates) in which we are operating.

On June 19, 2017, we closed our IPO, issuing 9,454,200 shares of our common stock (including shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option on July 5, 2017) at a public offering price of $18.50 per share. Net of underwriting costs, we received cash proceeds of $169,488. Shares of common stock of TCG BDC began trading on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol “CGBD” on June 14, 2017.

On June 9, 2017, we acquired NF Investment Corp. (“NFIC”), a BDC managed by our Investment Advisor (the “NFIC Acquisition”). As a result, we issued 434,233 shares of common stock to the NFIC stockholders and approximately $145,602 in cash, and acquired approximately $153,648 in net assets.

We are externally managed by our Investment Adviser, an investment adviser registered under the Advisers Act. Our Administrator provides the administrative services necessary for us to operate. Both our Investment Adviser and our

Administrator are wholly owned subsidiaries of Carlyle Investment Management L.L.C., a subsidiary of Carlyle. Our Investment Adviser’s five-person investment committee is responsible for reviewing and approving our investment opportunities. The members of the investment committee have experience investing through different credit cycles. As of September 30, 2020, our Investment Adviser’s investment team included a team of more than 150 investment professionals across the Carlyle Global Credit segment. The five members of our Investment Adviser’s investment committee have an average of over 25 years of industry experience. In addition, our Investment Adviser and its investment team are supported by a team of finance, operations and administrative professionals currently employed by Carlyle Employee Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of Carlyle.

In conducting our investment activities, we believe that we benefit from the significant scale, relationships and resources of Carlyle, including our Investment Adviser and its affiliates. We have operated our business as a BDC since we began our investment activities in May 2013.

KEY COMPONENTS OF OUR RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Investments

Our level of investment activity can and does vary substantially from period to period depending on many factors, including the amount of debt available to middle market companies, the general economic environment and the competitive environment for the type of investments we make.

Revenue

We generate revenue primarily in the form of interest income on debt investments we hold. In addition, we generate income from dividends on direct equity investments, capital gains on the sales of loans and debt and equity securities and various loan origination and other fees. Our debt investments generally have a stated term of five to eight years and generally bear interest at a floating rate usually determined on the basis of a benchmark such as LIBOR. Interest on these debt investments is generally paid quarterly. In some instances, we receive payments on our debt investments based on scheduled amortization of the outstanding balances. In addition, we receive repayments of some of our debt investments prior to their scheduled maturity date. The frequency or volume of these repayments fluctuates significantly from period to period. Our portfolio activity also reflects the proceeds of sales of securities. We may also generate revenue in the form of commitment, origination, amendment, structuring or due diligence fees, fees for providing managerial assistance and consulting fees.

Expenses

Our primary operating expenses include the payment of: (i) investment advisory fees, including base management fees and incentive fees, to our Investment Adviser pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement between us and our Investment Adviser; (ii) costs and other expenses and our allocable portion of overhead incurred by our Administrator in performing its administrative obligations under the Administration Agreement between us and our Administrator; and (iii) other operating expenses as detailed below:

• administration fees payable under our Administration Agreement and Sub-Administration Agreements, including related expenses;

• the costs of any offerings of our common stock and other securities, if any;

• calculating individual asset values and our net asset value (including the cost and expenses of any independent valuation firms);

• expenses, including travel expenses, incurred by our Investment Adviser, or members of our Investment Adviser team managing our investments, or payable to third parties, performing due diligence on prospective portfolio companies and, if necessary, expenses of enforcing our rights;

• certain costs and expenses relating to distributions paid on our shares;

• debt service and other costs of borrowings or other financing arrangements;

• the allocated costs incurred by our Investment Adviser in providing managerial assistance to those portfolio companies that request it;

• amounts payable to third parties relating to, or associated with, making or holding investments;

• the costs associated with subscriptions to data service, research-related subscriptions and expenses and quotation equipment and services used in making or holding investments;

• transfer agent and custodial fees;

• costs of hedging;

• commissions and other compensation payable to brokers or dealers;

• federal and state registration fees;

• any U.S. federal, state and local taxes, including any excise taxes;

• independent director fees and expenses;

• costs of preparing financial statements and maintaining books and records, costs of preparing tax returns, costs of Sarbanes-Oxley Act compliance and attestation and costs of filing reports or other documents with the SEC (or other regulatory bodies), and other reporting and compliance costs, including registration and listing fees, and the compensation of professionals responsible for the preparation or review of the foregoing;

• the costs of any reports, proxy statements or other notices to our stockholders (including printing and mailing costs), the costs of any stockholders’ meetings and the compensation of investor relations personnel responsible for the preparation of the foregoing and related matters;

• the costs of specialty and custom software for monitoring risk, compliance and overall portfolio, including any development costs incurred prior to the filing of our election to be regulated as a BDC;

• our fidelity bond;

• directors and officers/errors and omissions liability insurance, and any other insurance premiums;

• indemnification payments;

• direct fees and expenses associated with independent audits, agency, consulting and legal costs; and

• all other expenses incurred by us or our Administrator in connection with administering our business, including our allocable share of certain officers and their staff compensation.

We expect our general and administrative expenses to be relatively stable or to decline as a percentage of total assets during periods of asset growth and to increase during periods of asset declines.

Total	$	2,073,927	$	1,948,173	$	2,201,451	$	2,123,964

The weighted average yields (1) for our first and second lien debt, based on the amortized cost and fair value as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, were as follows:


	September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Amortized Cost		Fair Value		Amortized Cost		Fair Value
First Lien Debt (excluding First Lien/Last Out Debt)	6.98	%	7.47	%	8.00	%	8.17	%
First Lien/Last Out Debt	8.93	%	9.09	%	6.63	%	9.53	%
First Lien Debt Total	7.08	%	7.56	%	7.91	%	8.23	%
Second Lien Debt	9.23	%	9.82	%	10.44	%	10.42	%
First and Second Lien Debt Total	7.44	%	7.94	%	8.22	%	8.50	%

(1) Weighted average yields include the effect of accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums and are based on interest rates as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at fair value is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of original issue discount "OID") and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at fair value included in such securities. Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at amortized cost is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of OID and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at amortized cost included in such securities. Actual yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented above.

Total weighted average yields (which includes the effect of accretion of discount and amortization of premiums) of our first and second lien debt investments as measured on an amortized cost basis decreased from 8.22% to 7.44% from December 31, 2019 to September 30, 2020. The decrease in weighted average yields was primarily due to a decrease in the effective LIBOR rate applicable to loans in the portfolio.

The following table summarizes the fair value of our performing and non-accrual/non-performing investments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019:


	September 30, 2020				December 31, 2019
	Fair Value		Percentage		Fair Value		Percentage
Performing	$	1,880,802	96.54	%	$	2,071,535	97.53	%
Non-accrual (1)	67,371		3.46		52,429		2.47
Total	$	1,948,173	100.00	%	$	2,123,964	100.00	%

(1) For information regarding our non-accrual policy, see Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

See the Consolidated Schedules of Investments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 in our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on these investments, including a list of companies and type and amount of investments.

As part of the monitoring process, our Investment Adviser has developed risk policies pursuant to which it regularly assesses the risk profile of each of our debt investments and rates each of them based on categories, which we refer to as “Internal Risk Ratings”. During the second quarter of 2020, our Investment Advisor reevaluated and revised its Internal Risk Ratings and policies across the Carlyle Direct Lending platform to more appropriately assess portfolio risk across all market conditions, including the current COVID-19 environment. The revised methodology incorporates greater focus on expectations for future company performance and industry outlook, and creates greater consistency in risk rating assignment across all investments by removing from the ratings methodology the direct tie of historical financial results to the "base case" projections derived at the time of our initial investment. Under the revised methodology, an Internal Risk Rating of 1 – 5, which are defined below, is assigned to each debt investment in our portfolio, compared to Internal Risk Ratings of 1 – 6 under the legacy methodology. Key drivers of internal risk rating used in the revised methodology are substantially the same as the legacy methodology, including financial metrics, financial covenants, liquidity and enterprise value coverage.

Internal Risk Ratings Definitions


Rating						Definition
1						Borrower is operating above expectations, and the trends and risk factors are generally favorable.

2						Borrower is operating generally as expected or at an acceptable level of performance. The level of risk to our initial cost bases is similar to the risk to our initial cost basis at the time of origination. This is the initial risk rating assigned to all new borrowers.

3						Borrower is operating below expectations and level of risk to our cost basis has increased since the time of origination. The borrower may be out of compliance with debt covenants. Payments are generally current although there may be higher risk of payment default.

4						Borrower is operating materially below expectations and the loan’s risk has increased materially since origination. In addition to the borrower being generally out of compliance with debt covenants, loan payments may be past due, but generally not by more than 120 days. It is anticipated that we may not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a loss of our initial cost basis upon exit.

5						Borrower is operating substantially below expectations and the loan’s risk has increased substantially since origination. Most or all of the debt covenants are out of compliance and payments are substantially delinquent. It is anticipated that we will not recoup our initial cost basis and may realize a substantial loss of our initial cost basis upon exit.

Our Investment Adviser monitors and, when appropriate, changes the investment ratings assigned to each debt investment in our portfolio. Our Investment Adviser reviews our investment ratings in connection with our quarterly valuation process. The below table summarizes the Internal Risk Ratings as of September 30, 2020. Given the forward-looking nature of certain elements of the revised methodology, it is impracticable to recast the risk ratings for the portfolio using the revised methodology as of December 31, 2019.


	September 30, 2020
	Fair Value		% of Fair Value
(dollar amounts in millions)
Internal Risk Rating 1	$	38.8	2.27	%
Internal Risk Rating 2	1,201.4		70.22
Internal Risk Rating 3	380.8		22.26
Internal Risk Rating 4	48.9		2.86
Internal Risk Rating 5	40.9		2.39
Total	$	1,710.9	100.00	%

As of September 30, 2020, the weighted average Internal Risk Rating of our debt investment portfolio was 2.3. As of September 30, 2020, seven of our debt investments, with an aggregate fair value of $89.9 million were assigned an Internal Risk Rating of 4-5. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, six and five debt investments were on non-accrual status. The fair values of debt investments in the portfolio on non-accrual status were $67.4 million and $52.4 million, respectively, which represented approximately 3.46% and 2.47%, respectively, of total investments at fair value. The remaining first and second lien debt investments were performing and current on their interest payments as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019

The net increase or decrease in net assets from operations may vary substantially from period to period as a result of various factors, including the recognition of realized gains and losses and net change in unrealized appreciation and depreciation. As a result, quarterly comparisons may not be meaningful.

Investment Income

Investment income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was as follows:


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended
	September 30, 2020		September 30, 2019		September 30, 2020		September 30, 2019
Investment income
First Lien Debt	$	29,587	$	41,696	$	97,058	$	126,816
Second Lien Debt	7,084		7,542		22,814		19,534
Equity Investments	362		—		880		247
Investment Fund	5,750		6,459		17,799		20,990
Cash	1		82		53		246
Total investment income	$	42,784	$	55,779	$	138,604	$	167,833

The decrease in investment income for the three month period ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable period in 2019 was primarily driven by the decrease in LIBOR, a lower average principal outstanding, loans placed on non-accrual, and lower total income from Credit Fund. As of September 30, 2020, the size of our portfolio decreased to $2,073,927 from $2,228,631 as of September 30, 2019, at amortized cost. As of September 30, 2020, the weighted average yield of our first and second lien debt investments decreased to 7.44% from 8.88% as of September 30, 2019 on amortized cost, primarily due to the decrease in LIBOR.

Interest income on our first and second lien debt investments is dependent on the composition and credit quality of the portfolio. Generally, we expect the portfolio to generate predictable quarterly interest income based on the terms stated in each loan’s credit agreement. As of September 30, 2020 and 2019, six and five first lien debt investments, respectively, were on non-accrual status. Non-accrual investments had a fair value of $67,371 and $13,713 respectively, which represented approximately 3.5% and 0.6% of total investments at fair value, respectively. The remaining first and second lien debt investments were performing and current on their interest payments as of September 30, 2020 and 2019.

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned $2,110 and $1,756, respectively, in other income. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned $8,001 and $6,050, respectively, in other income. The increase in other income for the three month period ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable period in 2019 was primarily driven by higher amendment fees, offset partially by lower underwriting fees. The increase in other income for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable period in 2019 was primarily driven by higher amendment fees, offset partially by lower prepayment fees.

For the three month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned $5,750 and $6,459, respectively, in dividend and interest income from Credit Fund. For the nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company earned $17,799 and $20,990, respectively, in dividend and interest income from Credit Fund. The decrease for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable periods in 2019 was driven by the lower interest income on the Mezzanine Loan due to a decrease in the invested balance, offset by a higher dividend from the Credit Fund.

The decrease in interest expense for the three month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the comparable period in 2019 was primarily driven by lower LIBOR and lower average principal balances outstanding. The decrease in interest expense for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the comparable period in 2019 was primarily driven by lower LIBOR, partially offset by higher average principal balances outstanding.

Below is a summary of the base management fees and incentive fees incurred during the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.


	For the three month periods ended				For the nine month periods ended

Total base management fees and incentive fees	$	11,456	$	13,726	$	35,660	$	41,103

The decrease in base management fees and incentive fees related to pre-incentive fee net investment income for the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 from the comparable periods in 2019 was driven by lower investment fair value and lower pre-incentive fee net investment income, respectively.

For the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, there were no accrued capital gains incentive fees based upon the cumulative net realized and unrealized appreciation (depreciation) as of September 30, 2020 and 2019. The accrual for any capital gains incentive fee under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) in a given period may result in an additional expense if such cumulative amount is greater than in the prior period or a reduction of previously recorded expense if such cumulative amount is less than in the prior period. If such cumulative amount is negative, then there is no accrual. See Note 4 to the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for more information on the incentive and base management fees.

Professional fees include legal, rating agencies, audit, tax, valuation, technology and other professional fees incurred related to the management of the Company. Administrative service fees represent fees paid to the Administrator for our allocable portion of overhead and other expenses incurred by the Administrator in performing its obligations under the administration agreement, including our allocable portion of the cost of certain of our executive officers and their respective staff. Other general and administrative expenses include insurance, filing, research, subscriptions and other costs.

Net Realized Gain (Loss) and Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on Investments

During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, we had realized gains on 1 and 5 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $208 and $2,899, respectively, which was offset by realized losses on 3 and 6 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $11,117 and $20,590, respectively. During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2020, we had unrealized appreciation on 104 and 59 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $26,841 and $51,354, respectively, which was offset by unrealized depreciation on 35 and 95 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $11,801 and $99,621, respectively. During the three month and nine month periods ended September 30, 2019, we had unrealized appreciation on 76 and 99 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $20,081 and $40,426, respectively, which was offset by unrealized depreciation on 56 and 53 investments, respectively, totaling approximately $45,322 and $70,935, respectively.

Net change in unrealized appreciation in our investments for the three month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the comparable period in 2019 was primarily due to lower market yields and unrealized losses reflected on certain positions in 2019. Net change in unrealized depreciation in our investments for the nine month period ended September 30, 2020 compared to the comparable period in 2019 was primarily due to unrealized losses reflected on certain positions in 2020, combined with higher market yields, primarily related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) is also driven by changes in other inputs utilized under our valuation methodology, including, but not limited to, enterprise value multiples, leverage multiples and borrower ratings, and the impact of exits.

MIDDLE MARKET CREDIT FUND, LLC

Overview

On February 29, 2016, the Company and Credit Partners entered into the Limited Liability Company Agreement to co-manage Credit Fund, a Delaware limited liability company that is not consolidated in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Credit Fund primarily invests in first lien loans of middle market companies. Credit Fund is managed by a six-member board of managers, on which the Company and Credit Partners each have equal representation. Establishing a quorum for Credit Fund’s board of managers requires at least four members to be present at a meeting, including at least two of the Company’s representatives and two of Credit Partners’ representatives. The Company and Credit Partners each have 50% economic ownership of Credit Fund and have commitments to fund, from time to time, capital of up to $400,000 each. Funding of such commitments generally requires the approval of the board of Credit Fund, including the board members appointed by the Company. By virtue of its membership interest, the Company and Credit Partners each indirectly bear an allocable share of all expenses and other obligations of Credit Fund.

Together with Credit Partners, the Company co-invests through Credit Fund. Investment opportunities for Credit Fund are sourced primarily by the Company and its affiliates. Portfolio and investment decisions with respect to Credit Fund must be unanimously approved by a quorum of Credit Fund’s investment committee consisting of an equal number of representatives of the Company and Credit Partners. Therefore, although the Company owns more than 25% of the voting securities of Credit Fund, the Company does not believe that it has control over Credit Fund (other than for purposes of the Investment Company Act). Middle Market Credit Fund SPV, LLC (the “Credit Fund Sub”), MMCF CLO 2017-1 LLC (the “2017-1 Issuer”), MMCF CLO 2019-2, LLC (the "2019-2 Issuer", formerly known as MMCF Credit Warehouse, LLC (the "Credit Fund Warehouse")) and MMCF Warehouse II, LLC (the "Credit Fund Warehouse II"), each a Delaware limited liability company, were formed on April 5, 2016, October 6, 2017 November 26, 2018 and August 16, 2019, respectively. Credit Fund Sub, the 2017-1 Issuer, the 2019-2 Issuer, and Credit Fund Warehouse II are wholly owned subsidiaries of Credit Fund and are consolidated in Credit Fund’s consolidated financial statements commencing from the date of their respective formations. Credit Fund Sub, the 2017-1 Issuer, the 2019-2 Issuer and Credit Fund Warehouse II primarily invest in first lien loans of middle market companies. Credit Fund and its wholly owned subsidiaries follow the same Internal Risk Rating System as the Company. Refer to "Debt" below for discussions regarding the credit facilities entered into and the notes issued by such wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at fair value is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of OID and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at fair value included in such securities. Weighted average yield on debt and income producing securities at amortized cost is computed as (a) the annual stated interest rate or yield earned plus the net annual amortization of OID and market discount earned on accruing debt included in such securities, divided by (b) total first lien and second lien debt at amortized cost included in such securities. Actual yields earned over the life of each investment could differ materially from the yields presented above.

(3) Floating rate debt investments are primarily subject to interest rate floors.

Debt

Credit Fund, Credit Fund Sub and Credit Fund Warehouse II are party to separate credit facilities as described below. In addition, until May 15, 2019, the 2019-2 Issuer (formerly known as Credit Fund Warehouse) was a party to the Credit Warehouse Facility.

Credit Fund received 100% of the preferred interests issued by the 2019-2 Issuer (the “2019-2 Issuer Preferred Interests”) on the closing date of the 2019-2 Debt Securitization in exchange for Credit Fund’s contribution to the 2019-2 Issuer of the initial closing date loan portfolio. The 2019-2 Issuer Preferred Interests do not bear interest and had a nominal value of $48,300 at closing.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the 2019-2 Issuer was in compliance with all covenants and other requirements of the indenture.

FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We generate cash from the net proceeds of offerings of our common stock and through cash flows from operations, including investment sales and repayments as well as income earned on investments and cash equivalents. We may also fund a portion of our investments through borrowings under the Facilities, as well as through securitization of a portion of our existing investments. The primary use of existing funds and any funds raised in the future is expected to be for investments in portfolio companies, repayment of indebtedness, cash distributions to our stockholders and for other general corporate purposes.

While aggregate economic activity continued to improve through the third quarter of 2020, the dispersion in performance across industries and geographies has been substantial. However, anxiety over second and third coronavirus infection "waves", seesawing stimulus negotiations, continued pressure from heightened unemployment, and increasing political divisiveness and unrest leading up to the November 2020 elections have created significant uncertainty around the direction of future economic growth. Therefore, we expect that the pace and magnitude of economic recovery will be uneven, and continued market and business disruption created by the COVID-19 pandemic may impact certain aspects of our liquidity. Depreciation in the valuations of our investments may adversely impact collateral eligibility, which would reduce the availability under the Facilities. We are therefore continuously and critically monitoring our operating results, liquidity and anticipated capital requirements, and taking action to fortify our balance sheet and provide capital flexibility. For example, on October 28, 2020, the Company received stockholder approval to sell shares of its common stock below the net asset value per share. In addition, on November 3, 2020, we formed a joint venture with an unaffiliated private credit investment fund to create Middle Market Credit Fund II, LLC ("MMCF II"), as described in Note 13 to the consolidated financial statements. As part of the transaction, we contributed certain senior secured debt investments with an aggregate principal balance of $250 million, in exchange for equity ownership in MMCF II of approximately 84% and gross cash proceeds of $170 million. We expect to use the cash proceeds for repayment of debt, working capital and general corporate purposes, which will provide enhanced balance sheet flexibility and additional capital to deploy into an active origination environment. We believe our current cash position, available capacity on our revolving credit facilities – which is well in excess of our unfunded commitments – and net cash

provided by operating activities will provide us with sufficient resources to meet our obligations and continue to support our investment objectives, including reserving for the capital needs which may arise at our portfolio companies.

The SPV closed on May 24, 2013 on the SPV Credit Facility, which was subsequently amended on June 30, 2014, June 19, 2015, June 9, 2016, May 26, 2017 and August 9, 2018. The SPV Credit Facility provides for secured borrowings during the applicable revolving period up to an amount equal to the lesser of $275,000 (the borrowing base as calculated pursuant to the terms of the SPV Credit Facility) and the amount of net cash proceeds and unpledged capital commitments the Company has received, with an accordion feature that can, subject to certain conditions, increase the aggregate maximum credit commitment up to an amount not to exceed $750,000, subject to restrictions imposed on borrowings under the Investment Company Act and certain restrictions and conditions set forth in the SPV Credit Facility, including adequate collateral to support such borrowings. On December 31, 2019, the Company irrevocably reduced its commitments under the SPV Credit Facility to $275,000. The SPV Credit Facility imposes financial and operating covenants on us and the SPV that restrict our and its business activities. Continued compliance with these covenants will depend on many factors, some of which are beyond our control.

We closed on the Credit Facility on March 21, 2014, which was subsequently amended on January 8, 2015, May 25, 2016, March 22, 2017, September 25, 2018, June 14, 2019 and October 28, 2020. The maximum principal amount of the Credit Facility is $688,000, subject to availability under the Credit Facility, which is based on certain advance rates multiplied by the value of the Company’s portfolio investments (subject to certain concentration limitations) net of certain other indebtedness that the Company may incur in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility. Proceeds of the Credit Facility may be used for general corporate purposes, including the funding of portfolio investments. Maximum capacity under the Credit Facility may be increased, subject to certain conditions, to $900,000 through the exercise by the Company of an uncommitted accordion feature through which existing and new lenders may, at their option, agree to provide additional financing. The Credit Facility includes a $50,000 limit for swingline loans and a $20,000 limit for letters of credit. Subject to certain exceptions, the Credit Facility is secured by a first lien security interest in substantially all of the portfolio investments held by the Company. The Credit Facility includes customary covenants, including certain financial covenants related to asset coverage, shareholders’ equity and liquidity, certain limitations on the incurrence of additional indebtedness and liens, and other maintenance covenants, as well as usual and customary events of default for senior secured revolving credit facilities of this nature.

Although we believe that we and the SPV will remain in compliance, there are no assurances that we or the SPV will continue to comply with the covenants in the Credit Facility and SPV Credit Facility, as applicable. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in a default under the Credit Facility and/or the SPV Credit Facility that, if we or the SPV were unable to obtain a waiver from the applicable lenders, could result in the immediate acceleration of the amounts due under the Credit Facility and/or the SPV Credit Facility, and thereby have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Moreover, to the extent that we cannot meet our financing obligations, we risk the loss of some or all of our assets to liquidation or sale to satisfy the obligations. In such an event, we may be forced to sell assets at significantly depressed prices due to market conditions or otherwise, which may result in losses.

For more information on the SPV Credit Facility and the Credit Facility, see Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

On June 26, 2015, we completed the 2015-1 Debt Securitization. The 2015-1 Notes were issued by Carlyle Direct Lending CLO 2015-1R LLC (formerly known as Carlyle GMS Finance MM CLO 2015-1 LLC) (the “2015-1 Issuer”), a wholly owned and consolidated subsidiary of us. On August 30, 2018, the 2015-1 Issuer refinanced the 2015-1 Debt Securitization (the “2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing”) by redeeming in full the 2015-1 Notes and issuing new notes (the “2015-1R Notes”). The 2015-1R Notes are secured by a diversified portfolio of the 2015-1 Issuer consisting primarily of first and second lien senior secured loans. On the closing date of the 2015-1 Debt Securitization Refinancing, the 2015-1 Issuer, among other things:

(c) refinanced the issued Class A-1C Notes by redeeming in full the Class A-1C Notes and issuing new AAA Class A-1-3-R Notes in an aggregate principal amount of $25,000 which bear interest at 4.56%;

(f) reduced the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests by approximately $21,375 from a nominal value of $125,900 to approximately $104,525 at close; and

(g) extended the reinvestment period end date and maturity date applicable to the 2015-1 Issuer to October 15, 2023 and October 15, 2031, respectively. In connection with the contribution, we have made customary representations, warranties and covenants to the 2015-1 Issuer.

The Class A-1-1-R, Class A-1-2-R, Class A-1-3-R, Class A-2-R, Class B and Class C Notes are included in the consolidated financial statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. The 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests were eliminated in consolidation. For more information on the 2015-1R Notes, see Note 7 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

OFF BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

In the ordinary course of our business, we enter into contracts or agreements that contain indemnifications or warranties. Future events could occur which may give rise to liabilities arising from these provisions against us. We believe that the likelihood of such an event is remote; however, the maximum potential exposure is unknown. No accrual has been made in these consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for any such exposure.

We have in the past, currently are and may in the future become obligated to fund commitments such as revolving credit facilities, bridge financing commitments, or delayed draw commitments.

We had the following unfunded commitments to fund delayed draw and revolving senior secured loans as of the indicated dates:


	Principal Amount as of
	September 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Unfunded delayed draw commitments	$	58,290	$	75,874
Unfunded revolving commitments	67,034		74,016
Total unfunded commitments	$	125,324	$	149,890

Pursuant to an undertaking by us in connection with the 2015-1 Debt Securitization, we agreed to hold on an ongoing basis the 2015-1 Issuer Preferred Interests with an aggregate dollar purchase price at least equal to 5% of the aggregate

outstanding amount of all collateral obligations by the 2015-1 Issuer for so long as any securities of the 2015-1 Issuer remains outstanding. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we were in compliance with this undertaking.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Prior to July 5, 2017, we had an “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan in respect of our common stock. Effective on July 5, 2017, we converted our “opt in” dividend reinvestment plan to an “opt out” dividend reinvestment plan that provides for reinvestment of our dividends and other distributions on behalf of our common stockholders, other than those common stockholders who have “opted out” of the plan. As a result of adopting the plan, if our Board of Directors authorizes, and we declare, a cash dividend or distribution on our common stock, our common stockholders who have not elected to “opt out” of our dividend reinvestment plan will have their cash dividends or distributions automatically reinvested in additional shares of our common stock, rather than receiving cash. Each registered common stockholder may elect to have such common stockholder’s dividends and distributions distributed in cash rather than participate in the plan. For any registered common stockholder that does not so elect, distributions on such common stockholder’s shares will be reinvested by State Street Bank and Trust Company, our plan administrator, in additional common shares. The number of common shares to be issued to the common stockholder will be determined based on the total dollar amount of the cash distribution payable, net of applicable withholding taxes. We intend to use primarily newly issued common shares to implement the plan so long as the market value per share is equal to or greater than the net asset value per share on the relevant valuation date. If the market value per share is less than the net asset value per share on the relevant valuation date, the plan administrator would implement the plan through the purchase of common stock on behalf of participants in the open market, unless we instruct the plan administrator otherwise.

The following table summarizes the Company's dividends declared per share of common stock during the two most recent fiscal years and the current fiscal year to date:

ASSET COVERAGE

In accordance with the Investment Company Act, a BDC is only allowed to borrow amounts such that its “asset coverage,” as defined in the Investment Company Act, satisfies the minimum asset coverage ratio specified in the Investment Company Act after such borrowing. “Asset coverage” generally refers to a company’s total assets, less all liabilities and indebtedness not represented by “senior securities,” as defined in the Investment Company Act, divided by total senior securities representing indebtedness and, if applicable, preferred stock. “Senior securities” for this purpose includes borrowings from banks or other lenders, debt securities and preferred stock.

Prior to March 23, 2018, BDCs were required to maintain a minimum asset coverage ratio of 200%. On March 23, 2018, an amendment to Section 61(a) of the Investment Company Act was signed into law to permit BDCs to reduce the minimum asset coverage ratio from 200% to 150%, so long as certain approval and disclosure requirements are satisfied. Under the 200% minimum asset coverage ratio, BDCs are permitted to borrow up to one dollar for investment purposes for every one dollar of investor equity, and under the 150% minimum asset coverage ratio, BDCs are permitted to borrow up to two dollars for investment purposes for every one dollar of investor equity. In other words, Section 61(a) of the Investment Company Act, as amended, permits BDCs to potentially increase their debt-to-equity ratio from a maximum of 1 to 1 to a maximum of 2 to 1.

On April 9, 2018 and June 6, 2018, the Board of Directors, including a “required majority” (as such term is defined in Section 57(o) of the Investment Company Act), and the stockholders of the Company, respectively, approved the application to the Company of the 150% minimum asset coverage ratio set forth in Section 61(a)(2) of the Investment Company Act. As a result, the minimum asset coverage ratio applicable to the Company was reduced from 200% to 150%, effective as of June 7, 2018.

On April 8, 2020, the SEC issued an order (Release No. 33837) providing temporary, conditional exemptive relief from certain Investment Company Act provisions for BDCs, including relief permitting BDCs to issue additional senior securities to meet liquidity needs subject to compliance with a reduced asset coverage ratio. The relief is subject to investor protection conditions, including specific requirements for obtaining an independent evaluation of the terms of the senior securities, limits on new investments and approval by a majority of a BDC’s independent board members as well as public disclosure in the case of the issuance of senior securities pursuant to the reduced asset coverage ratio. These exemptions are in effect through the earlier of December 31, 2020 or the date by which a BDC ceases to rely on the order. The Company does not currently anticipate utilizing this relief.

As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had total senior securities of $1,127,532 and $1,180,743, respectively, consisting of secured borrowings under the Facilities, the Notes Payable, and, only as of September 30, 2020, the Preferred Stock, and had asset coverage ratios of 174.96% and 181.01%, respectively.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets, and any other parameters used in determining such estimates could cause actual results to differ. Our critical accounting policies, including those relating to the valuation of our investment portfolio, are described below. The critical accounting policies

should be read in connection with our consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q and in Part II, Item 8 of the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies fair value accounting in accordance with the terms of Financial Accounting Standards Board ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC 820”). ASC 820 defines fair value as the amount that would be exchanged to sell an asset or transfer a liability in an orderly transfer between market participants at the measurement date. The Company values securities/instruments traded in active markets on the measurement date by multiplying the closing price of such traded securities/instruments by the quantity of shares or amount of the instrument held. The Company may also obtain quotes with respect to certain of its investments, such as its securities/instruments traded in active markets and its liquid securities/instruments that are not traded in active markets, from pricing services, brokers, or counterparties (i.e., “consensus pricing”). When doing so, the Company determines whether the quote obtained is sufficient according to U.S. GAAP to determine the fair value of the security. The Company may use the quote obtained or alternative pricing sources may be utilized including valuation techniques typically utilized for illiquid securities/instruments.

Securities/instruments that are illiquid or for which the pricing source does not provide a valuation or methodology or provides a valuation or methodology that, in the judgment of the Investment Adviser or the Board of Directors, does not represent fair value shall each be valued as of the measurement date using all techniques appropriate under the circumstances and for which sufficient data is available. These valuation techniques may vary by investment and include comparable public market valuations, comparable precedent transaction valuations and/or discounted cash flow analyses. The process generally used to determine the applicable value is as follows: (i) the value of each portfolio company or investment is initially reviewed by the investment professionals responsible for such portfolio company or investment and, for non-traded investments, a standardized template designed to approximate fair market value based on observable market inputs, updated credit statistics and unobservable inputs is used to determine a preliminary value, which is also reviewed alongside consensus pricing, where available; (ii) preliminary valuation conclusions are documented and reviewed by a valuation committee comprised of members of senior management; (iii) the Board of Directors engages a third-party valuation firm to provide positive assurance on portions of the Middle Market Senior Loans and equity investments portfolio each quarter (such that each non-traded investment other than Credit Fund is reviewed by a third-party valuation firm at least once on a rolling twelve month basis) including a review of management’s preliminary valuation and conclusion on fair value; (iv) the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Audit Committee”) reviews the assessments of the Investment Adviser and the third-party valuation firm and provides the Board of Directors with any recommendations with respect to changes to the fair value of each investment in the portfolio; and (v) the Board of Directors discusses the valuation recommendations of the Audit Committee and determines the fair value of each investment in the portfolio in good faith based on the input of the Investment Adviser and, where applicable, the third-party valuation firm.

All factors that might materially impact the value of an investment are considered, including, but not limited to the assessment of the following factors, as relevant:

• the nature and realizable value of any collateral;

• call features, put features and other relevant terms of debt;

• the portfolio company’s leverage and ability to make payments;

• the portfolio company’s public or private credit rating;

• the portfolio company’s actual and expected earnings and discounted cash flow;

• prevailing interest rates and spreads for similar securities and expected volatility in future interest rates;

• the markets in which the portfolio company does business and recent economic and/or market events; and

• comparisons to comparable transactions and publicly traded securities.

For further information on the fair value hierarchies, our framework for determining fair value and the composition of our portfolio, see Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make assumptions and estimates 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. Management’s estimates are based on historical experiences and other factors, including expectations of future events that management believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. It also requires management to exercise judgment in the process of applying the Company’s accounting policies. Assumptions and estimates regarding the valuation of investments and their resulting impact on base management and incentive fees involve a higher degree of judgment and complexity and these assumptions and estimates may be significant to the consolidated financial statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Actual results could differ from these estimates and such differences could be material.

Investments

Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains or losses are measured by the difference between the net proceeds from the repayment or sale and the amortized cost basis of the investment using the specific identification method without regard to unrealized appreciation or depreciation previously recognized, and includes investments charged off during the period, net of recoveries. Net change in unrealized appreciation or depreciation on investments as presented in the Consolidated Statements of Operations in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q reflects the net change in the fair value of investments, including the reversal of previously recorded unrealized appreciation or depreciation when gains or losses are realized.

Income Taxes

The minimum distribution requirements applicable to RICs require the Company to distribute to its stockholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income (“ICTI”), as defined by the Code, each year. Depending on the level of ICTI earned in a tax year, the Company may choose to carry forward ICTI in excess of current year distributions into the next tax year. Any such carryover ICTI must be distributed before the end of that next tax year through a dividend declared prior to filing the final tax return related to the year which generated such ICTI.

The SPVs and the 2015-1 Issuer are disregarded entities for tax purposes and are consolidated with the tax return of the Company.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to financial market risks, including changes in the valuations of our investment portfolio and interest rates.

Valuation Risk

Our investments generally do not have a readily available market price, and we value these investments at fair value as determined in good faith by our Board of Directors in accordance with our valuation policy. There is no single standard for determining fair value in good faith. As a result, determining fair value requires that judgment be applied to the specific facts and circumstances of each portfolio investment while employing a consistently applied valuation process for the types of investments we make. Due to the inherent uncertainty of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of our investments may fluctuate from period to period. In addition, because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, these estimated values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed, and it is possible that the difference could be material.

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2020, on a fair value basis, approximately 0.9% of our debt investments bear interest at a fixed rate and approximately 99.1% of our debt investments bear interest at a floating rate, which primarily are subject to interest rate floors. Additionally, our Facilities are also subject to floating interest rates and are currently paid based on floating LIBOR rates.

Interest rate sensitivity refers to the change in earnings that may result from changes in the level of interest rates. There can be no assurance that a significant change in market interest rates will not have a material adverse effect on our income in the future.

The following table estimates the potential changes in net cash flow generated from interest income, should interest rates increase or decrease by 100, 200 or 300 basis points. These hypothetical interest income calculations are based on a model of the settled debt investments in our portfolio, excluding our investment in Credit Fund, held as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and are only adjusted for assumed changes in the underlying base interest rates and the impact of that change on interest income. Interest expense is calculated based on outstanding secured borrowings and notes payable as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 and based on the terms of our Facilities and notes payable. Interest expense on our Facilities and notes payable is calculated using the stated interest rate as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, adjusted for the hypothetical changes in rates, as shown below. We intend to continue to finance a portion of our investments with borrowings and the interest rates paid on our borrowings may impact significantly our net interest income.

We regularly measure exposure to interest rate risk. We assess interest rate risk and manage interest rate exposure on an ongoing basis by comparing our interest rate sensitive assets to our interest rate sensitive liabilities. Based on that review, we determine whether or not any hedging transactions are necessary to mitigate exposure to changes in interest rates.

Based on our Consolidated Statements of Assets and Liabilities as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the following table shows the annual impact on net investment income of base rate changes in interest rates for our settled debt investments (considering interest rate floors for variable rate instruments), excluding our investment in Credit Fund, and outstanding secured borrowings and notes payable assuming no changes in our investment and borrowing structure:


	September 30, 2020						December 31, 2019
