Management Commentary
Ted Goldthorpe, Chief Executive Officer of BCP Investment Corporation, stated, “2025 was a transformational year for the Company. During the year, we successfully completed our merger with LRFC, executed a rebranding and name change, and launched a tender offer – all of which are initiatives designed to enhance shareholder value.

The merger meaningfully strengthened our platform, expanded our scale, and enhanced our portfolio diversification. At the same time, our rebranding better reflects our affiliation with the broader BC Partners Credit Platform and is a representation of our long-term vision as we position the Company for its next phase of growth.

Additionally, consistent with our diligent capital management strategy, during the year we proactively extended and laddered our unsecured debt maturities, issuing $75 million of 7.75% Notes due October 2030 and $35 million of 7.50% Notes due October 2028, while also redeeming our 4.875% Notes due 2026. These actions further diversified our funding base and provided us with enhanced financial flexibility.

The Board also approved the transition of the Company’s base distribution payment schedule from quarterly to monthly beginning in April 2026, while retaining the potential for quarterly supplemental distributions. We believe this change better aligns our distribution schedule with shareholder interests.

Consistent with previous years, on March 4, 2026, the Board authorized a renewed stock repurchase program of up to $10 million for an approximately one-year period.

Looking ahead, while macroeconomic headwinds persist, we believe current market dynamics continue to create compelling opportunities for our disciplined strategy. We anticipate that 2026 will bring increased activity in the M&A market and expect to capitalize on opportunities in our pipeline.

As always, our focus remains on disciplined capital allocation, strong underwriting standards, and delivering attractive, risk-adjusted returns for our shareholders. With a larger, more diversified platform and reinforced balance sheet, we believe we are well positioned to drive long-term value creation and generate sustainable, risk-adjusted returns.”

Results of Operations

Operating results for the year ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, were as follows:

Investment Income
The composition of our investment income for the year ended December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, was as follows:

Fair Value of Investments
The composition of our investment portfolio as of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, at cost and fair value was as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of December 31, 2025, the Company had approximately $312.3 million (par value) of outstanding borrowings at a current weighted average interest rate of 6.9%, of which $162.0 million par value had a fixed rate and $150.3 million par value had a floating rate.

As of December 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the fair value of investments and cash were as follows:

As of December 31, 2025, the Company had unrestricted cash of $3.7 million and restricted cash of $8.8 million. This compares to unrestricted cash of $17.5 million and restricted cash of $22.4 million as of December 31, 2024. As of December 31, 2025, the Company had $92.4 million of available borrowing capacity under the JPM Credit Facility and $32.3 million of available borrowing capacity under the KB Credit Facility.

Interest Rate Risk
The Company’s investment income is affected by fluctuations in various interest rates, including SOFR and prime rates.

As of December 31, 2025, approximately 86.8% of our Debt Securities Portfolio at par value were floating rate with a spread to an interest rate index such as SOFR. 89.5% of these floating rate loans contain floors ranging between 0.50% and 5.25%. We generally expect that future portfolio investments will predominately be floating rate investments.

In periods of rising or lowering interest rates, the cost of the portion of debt associated with the 2028 Notes, 2030 Notes, 2032 Convertible Notes and 2026 Notes would remain the same, given that this debt is at a fixed rate, while the interest rate on borrowings under the Great Lakes Portman Ridge Funding LLC Revolving Credit Facility and the KeyBank Credit Facility would fluctuate with changes in interest rates.

Generally, the Company would expect that an increase in the base rate index for floating rate investment assets would increase gross investment income and a decrease in the base rate index for such assets would decrease gross investment income (in either case, such increase/decrease may be limited by interest rate floors/minimums for certain investment assets).

Conference Call and Webcast
We will hold a conference call on Friday, March 6, 2026, at 10:00 am Eastern Time to discuss our fourth quarter and full year 2025 financial results.

A replay of this conference call will be available shortly after the live call through March 13, 2026.
